Three Men in a Boat by Jerome K. Jerome audiobook.
Genre: comedy
Three Men in a Boat (To Say Nothing of the Dog), published in 1889, is a humorous account by Jerome K. Jerome of a boating holiday on the Thames between Kingston and Oxford.
The book was intended initially to be a serious travel guide, with accounts of local history of places along the route, but the humorous elements eventually took over, to the point where the serious and somewhat sentimental passages now seem like an unnecessary distraction to the essentially comic novel. One of the most praised things about Three Men in a Boat is how undated it appears to modern readers. The jokes seem fresh and witty even today.
The three men were based on Jerome himself and two real-life friends, George, and Harris. The dog, Montmorency, however, was entirely fictional, but, as Jerome had remarked, 'had much of me in it.'

Dear Enemy by Jean Webster audiobook.
Genre: romance
In this witty, warm epistolary novel, Sallie McBride takes on a challenge most people would run from: becoming superintendent of the John Grier Home, a bleak, old-fashioned orphanage with a tight budget, stubborn traditions, and a board of trustees more interested in appearances than children. Sallie writes a lively stream of letters to her best friend Judy Abbott (now comfortably married), to Judy's husband Jervis, and to a handful of others who can help her survive the job - including the one correspondent she least expects to rely on: the sharp-tongued young doctor, Robin MacRae, whom she dubs her 'dear enemy.' As Sallie tries to replace rigid rules with humane care, she must navigate staff rivalries, skeptical benefactors, and the daily realities of raising dozens of lively, wounded, hopeful kids. Full of humor and heart, Dear Enemy blends social conscience with sparkling banter, tracing how small reforms, patient attention, and unexpected alliances can change an institution - and how a clash of opinions can slowly turn into something far more personal.

Insurgent Mexico by John Reed audiobook.
Genre: history
In the autumn of 1913 John Reed was sent to Mexico by the Metropolitan Magazine to report the Mexican Revolution. He shared the perils of Pancho Villa's army for four months, present with Villa's Constitutional Army when it defeated Federal forces at Torreón, opening the way for its advance on Mexico City. Reed's time with the Villistas resulted in a series of outstanding magazine articles that brought Jack a national reputation as a war correspondent. Reed deeply sympathized with the plight of the peons and vehemently opposed American intervention, which came shortly after he left. Jack adored Villa, while Carranza left him cold. Jack's Mexican reports were later republished in book form as Insurgent Mexico, which appeared in 1914.
