Sync Audiobooks


Last summer, I was introduced to a series of FREE downloadable YA audio books through Sync.  Weekly, throughout summer, there would be 2 available free titles, a fairly recent publication and a second, related piece of classic literature.  I enjoyed classic stories such as "The Lottery" (one of my favorite short stories), Oliver Twist, A Midsummer Night's Dream and Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, as well as new stories for young adults such as The Angel Experiment (Maximum Ride, Book 1, which got me hooked!), The Hunger Games (which also got me hooked, badly!!) and Beastly.


This summer, Sync is once again offering an entire summer series, including stand-by classics (and frequently required reading in high school) like Romeo and Juliet, Wuthering Heights and Beowulf, as well as new YA titles like Shiver, Immortal and The Last Apprentice: Revenge of the Witch.  


You can visit their site to download their free player (anytime throughout the series) and the first audio titles now through June 29, and can return weekly for the next 2 titles.  This is such a great opportunity!  Although the time available to download each title may be limited, once the download is complete, the file does not timeout, like some other electronic resources do.  Take advantage, and happy listening!
