About this listen
In the midst of a global pandemic, amidst the chaos and uncertainty that grips the world, one tiny soul listens, learns, and grows within the safety of her mother's womb. "Whispers Within the Womb" invites listeners on a captivating journey through the eyes of Genesis, an incredibly intelligent and emotionally intuitive baby girl, as she bears witness to the trials and tribulations of her parents, Adam and Olivia, during the tumultuous times of COVID-19.
From the very beginning, Genesis is attuned to the sounds and sensations of the world around her, eagerly anticipating the day when she can join her parents in the adventures that await. But as she listens in on their conversations and absorbs the emotions that swirl around her, she grapples with the harsh realities of the pandemic, the fear and uncertainty that threaten to overshadow the joy of her impending arrival.
Through Genesis's keen observations, listeners are drawn into a tapestry of love, resilience, and hope, as her parents navigate the challenges of their daily lives with unwavering strength and determination. From the heartwarming moments of laughter and connection to the gut-wrenching decisions that test their faith and resolve, Adam and Olivia's journey serves as a poignant reminder of the power of love to triumph over even the darkest of times.
But as the deadline for a vaccine mandate approaches, Genesis and her parents are faced with a decision that will change the course of their lives forever. With their faith and convictions put to the ultimate test, they must confront their deepest fears and uncertainties, and find the courage to stand up for what they believe in, no matter the cost.

When mystery author D. B. Ziegler is late delivering her book, Abi Schore steps in to help.

When Abi shows up on Ms. Ziegler’s doorstep bearing holiday treats, she’s met by the author’s handsome grandson Dov, who reveals a startling plot twist. His grandmother isn’t able to finish the book and Dov promised he’d complete it so fans won’t be disappointed—a task that’s harder than he ever imagined.

Story
When Heather McKinley dreamed of becoming a doctor, she imagined curing sick kids and sporting pink stethoscopes. She never anticipated the sleepless nights, grueling exams, and endless labs. And she certainly never knew that her medical school earned the nickname Dead Med thanks to the tragic history of students overdosing on illegal drugs. But Heather would never consider doing anything like that. That is, until her longtime boyfriend dumps her, she finds herself failing anatomy, and her world starts to crumble.

very interesting short story
This is definitely something new. it's a new angle to look at the pandemic which just hit us a few years ago. the pandemic feels like always beyond us now, everything going back to sort of normal, but there are things that would neve come back. looking back to what we experienced during the pandemic, it's hard to believe that we went through those time and those things. this book is from a genesis's perspective, eagerly wanting to know everything around and everything seems new and interesting. and its experience with the parents. quite refreshing.

Very touching!
This audiobook is a touching and unique story that allowed me to experience the essence of a family's journey during the pandemic. Through the eyes of Genesis (a baby girl in her Mother's womb), I was able to witness the emotional rollercoaster experienced by her parents. The book beautifully portrayed their struggles, fears, and hopes to me, offering me a new perspective on the pandemic's impact on families. I felt connected to Genesis while listening to this, relating to her absorbing all the emotions and uncertainties of her parents. It is both heartwarming and tough, but also highlights the resilience of the human spirit through adversity. I really enjoyed it and it is a short but sweet listen. Highly recommend!

Hope for the Future!
Whispers Within the Womb really touched my heart, especially after learning the author actually went through everything Olivia goes through in the story. I love the unique voice of the storyteller and the reminder to not forget the lessons we learn from the past so we don’t make the same mistakes going into the future. I would like to see more from this author!

Not What I Expected
I wasn't sure what I was in for, but I enjoyed this 30 minute story. It offered a different perspective of the pandemic. To be honest, it was opposite world view of what I experienced during the past few years of the pandemic but I liked being put in the authors shoes to see how other humans felt during these troubled times.
