It is 1922, and London is tense. Ex-servicemen are disillusioned; the out-of-work and the hungry are demanding change. And in South London, in a genteel Camberwell villa, a large silent house now bereft of brothers, husband, and even servants, life is about to be transformed, as impoverished widow Mrs. Wray and her spinster daughter, Frances, are obliged to take in lodgers.

Jeanette is a bright and rebellious orphan who is adopted into an evangelical household in the dour, industrial North of England and finds herself embroidering grim religious mottoes and shaking her little tambourine for Jesus. But as this budding missionary comes of age, and comes to terms with her unorthodox sexuality, the peculiar balance of her God-fearing household dissolves. Jeanette’s insistence on listening to truths of her own heart and mind - and on reporting them with wit and passion - makes for an unforgettable chronicle of an eccentric, moving passage into adulthood.

Second, given how terrible her romantic track record is, falling in love isn't in the cards for her. And third, Christmas only brings her bad luck - being broken up with not once, not twice, but three times during the holidays is proof enough of that.

Beloved author Elizabeth Gilbert returns to fiction with a unique love story set in the New York City theater world during the 1940s. Told from the perspective of an older woman as she looks back on her youth with both pleasure and regret (but mostly pleasure), City of Girls explores themes of female sexuality and promiscuity, as well as the idiosyncrasies of true love. In 1940, nineteen-year-old Vivian Morris has just been kicked out of Vassar College, owing to her lackluster freshman-year performance.

Featured Article: The Audiobooks I Wish I Had Listened to Sooner (As a Late-Blooming Lesbian)
Not all of these audiobooks are centered around coming out, but they all lend themselves to self-reflection and to ultimately closing the chasm between the person as is and the person self-actualized, standing in their truth. If you are questioning your sexuality or place in the world, know that you are not, and never will be, alone. These listens will bring you solace, companionship along the way, and a newfound closeness to your most authentic self.

Historia
Australian country girl Nina Pellegrini runs a program for city kids to experience a taste of rural life at Banksia Farm. But when a child is hurt and a lawsuit threatens, Nina is determined to find the best legal assistance to help her save the farm. Enter high-flying lawyer Leigh Willoughby, whose city world is far from the farm's chaotic mix of kids and animals. She certainly doesn't have time for small cases that don't pay or farm visits that wreck her cool - and her clothes. Still, the warm-hearted Nina and her challenging, 12-year-old daughter are awfully hard to say no to.

Historia
A deep kiss and a single rule. Like most women in dead-end relationships, Holly Markham was used to finding substitutes for love. But throwing herself into the arms of a leather-clad stranger was never on her list. When Holly's best friend Tori takes her to a dance for lesbians only, she realizes that Tori is gently trying to push her out of the closet. While it was true that Holly had been trying to come to terms with her growing attraction toward women, no one expected Holly to take one look at the mysterious Reyna and fall hopelessly in lust.

Historia
Jeanette is a bright and rebellious orphan who is adopted into an evangelical household in the dour, industrial North of England and finds herself embroidering grim religious mottoes and shaking her little tambourine for Jesus. But as this budding missionary comes of age, and comes to terms with her unorthodox sexuality, the peculiar balance of her God-fearing household dissolves. Jeanette’s insistence on listening to truths of her own heart and mind - and on reporting them with wit and passion - makes for an unforgettable chronicle of an eccentric, moving passage into adulthood.

Where does Tipping the Velvet rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
To date, this is the best audiobook I've listened to.What was one of the most memorable moments of Tipping the Velvet?
There's no *one* memorable moment. It was 19 hours of memorable moments.Which character – as performed by Juanita McMahon – was your favorite?
Nancy - the narrator. She captured the pure essence of who Nancy is, what she was feeling, and the import of what she was telling.If you could rename Tipping the Velvet, what would you call it?
I wouldn'tAny additional comments?
19 hours of absolute bliss. Juanita McMahon absolutely nailed the narration. Sarah Waters' writing is perfection, in my opinion - on this book, at the very least. I read the book years ago and fell in love with it then. After listening to the audiobook, I've fall in love all over again.What a treat!

What did you love best about Tipping the Velvet?
I love all of the historical details about lesbian life during this time period. I think the characters are all well developed, and the story is entertaining. I also liked that, though there is love, it's not a love story.Who was your favorite character and why?
Nancy, of course! I read this book years ago when I was in college and fell in love with everything about it, but I was particularly in love with Nan who was unabashedly herself throughout the novel. I was afraid the book wouldn't live up to my memory of it this time around, but Nan managed to charm me yet again.What does Juanita McMahon bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Every single character had a unique voice with Juanita McMahon's reading.If you could rename Tipping the Velvet, what would you call it?
I wouldn't rename it at all. If you're in the know, the name is cheeky and screams "lesbian" without being crude.Any additional comments?
This made me want to read more by this author.Nan <3
