The Untempered Wind by Joanna E. Wood audiobook.

Genre: drama

Set in a small Canadian village in the late 19th century, The Untempered Wind follows Myron Holder, a young woman forced to move through daily life under a cloud of scandal: she is a mother, but not a wife. With her child to protect and few allies to trust, Myron faces the relentless scrutiny of neighbors who measure virtue with quick tongues and hard rules. As spring stirs the town awake, Myron is pushed into a quiet battle for dignity, work, and a future that feels increasingly out of reach, especially when judgment comes not only from the streets but from within her own household. Joanna E. Wood paints village life in sharp, realistic detail, revealing how kindness and cruelty can sit side by side in ordinary routines, and how reputations can become cages. While Myron struggles against shame that is not entirely her own, she must decide what self-respect means in a world determined to define her by a single fact. At once intimate and socially observant, this is a story about endurance, moral hypocrisy, and the high cost of compassion withheld.

David Hume and his Influence on Philosophy and Theology by James Orr audiobook.

Genre: philosophy

David Hume justly takes rank as the most distinguished member of that brilliant circle of literary men whose names gave such a lustre to the second half of the eighteenth century in Scotland. His speculations were the most profound, and, with the possible exception of Adam Smith in a particular department, his influence was the widest and most deeply felt, of any. But even his warmest friends could scarcely have predicted the influence he was destined to exercise, or the important results that were to spring from his thoughts. It required time to clear away the mists that had gathered round his name, and to place him in his true light in the eyes of posterity. At a century and a half’s distance, we are in a better position to take an impartial survey of his work and its effects. The result must be, that, however we may judge of Hume in particular respects, we cannot deny to him a right to the title of a great and independent thinker. It is indicated in the text that the point of view from which Hume’s philosophy is mainly regarded is that of an experiment to explain knowledge, and generally the intellectual and moral outfit of man, without the assumption of a rational nature in man.

The Airplane Boys among the Clouds by John Luther Langworthy audiobook.

Genre: adventure

In the early days of flight, cousins Frank and Andy Bird are the pride of Bloomsbury, and their friends Larry and Elephant can hardly believe their luck as they watch the boys test a new biplane over Sunrise Lake. For Frank and Andy, the sky is freedom - and a proving ground. A local rival, Percy Carberry, is eager to outdo them with his own machine, turning every public exhibition into a high-stakes contest of nerve and skill. But the danger is not limited to risky maneuvers and shifting winds. A mysterious gunshot and a whispering bullet close to the wings suggest that someone on the ground may want the Bird boys brought down. As storms gather around the rocky heights of Old Thunder Top and accidents threaten to turn competition into catastrophe, the young aviators must rely on quick judgment, mechanical know-how, and trust in each other to face threats from weather, terrain, and human jealousy. Packed with aerial stunts, narrow escapes, and frontier-style ingenuity, this classic adventure captures the wonder - and peril - of learning to live among the clouds.
