Book excerpt: The Silent Sisterhood At nineteen, Tia Sharp leaves her very protective, comfortable lifestyle, family and friends to move from London, England to Ottawa, Ontario. Tia will discover an even stronger bond with her father-in-law, a man who is everything her own father is not, making her life in Canada complete. With help from her hard-nosed producer, she will also her dreams and turn the sadness of her marriage into something positive for television viewers drawn each week to the plot twists of The Saga. With her beloved family and friends by her side, Tia will make the impossible possible.... Tia's friend, Kate Lee, is beautiful inside and out. Loyal to everyone she loves, Kate was raised to believe that a person's character is everything, and she carries herself gracefully. An only child to a single-parent mother, Kate was very lonely until she met her best friend at six years old. They have been inseparable as their families have become close. Kate has never known pain until the loss of her baby unveils her inner strength, simultaneously unmasking her vulnerability, making everything seem suddenly unbearably sad. Her boyfriend, Jaden Blake, has no one to turn to when tragedy strikes the couple, so he turns to the very thing that destroyed his family as a child: drugs and alcohol, forsaking the love he shares with Kate and the future they have planned... Brooke Williams had no choice but to grow up fast, with a mother grief-stricken by the tragic death of Brooke's father, Jack. Alone since Jack's death, Brooke believes the reasons for this solitude are all her fault. She has never known true friendship or love. She will meet Kate, Jaden and Tia, and together they will build a lasting friendship until a shameful secret and a powerful man's need to hold and control his family will try to tear apart everything that Brooke has built with her mother and her best friends. Nathan Carter has it all: a successful career and beautiful women to share his bed at any time or day. A romantic man, who grew up hearing the love stories that his mother told him and his siblings, he truly believes that his angel is out there and they will meet and fall in love. She will be everything he has ever desired. His jealousy and thoughtlessness take away the two women and his children whom he loves more than life itself... The very sexy, charming, sophisticated lawyer will be outside looking into the life he has thrown away on the day of his son's birth. With the encouragement, love, and support of his mother-in-law, Nathan finds the strength and the will power to win back not only his wife and children, but also a family and a love that has always been there since the very day he was struck with the waves of emotion, we called love... at Amsterdam airport....

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Through a detailed description of the life and activities of the middle-class married woman of London between 1875 and 1900, this study reveals how housewives unwittingly became engines for change as the new century neared. In marked contrast to the stereotypical depictions of Victorian women in literature and on television, Draznin reveals a woman seldom seen: the stay-at-home housewife whose activities were not much different than those of her counterparts today. By exploring her daily activities, how she cleaned her home, disciplined her children, managed her servants, stretched a limited budget, and began to indulge herself, one discovers the human dimension of women who lived more than a century ago. While most studies of this period consider values, aspirations, and attitudes, this book concentrates on actions, what these women did all day, to provide readers with a new perspective on Victorian life. Late-Victorian London was a surprisingly modern city with a public face of well-lit streets, an excellent underground railway system, and extended municipal services. In the home, gas stoves were replacing coal ranges and household appliances were becoming more common. Having both money to spend and a strong incentive to buy the new laborsaving devices, ready-to-wear clothing, and other manufactured products, the middle-class matron's resistance to change gave way to a rising consumer culture. Despite her nearly exclusive preoccupation with home and family, these urban women became agents for the modernization of Britain.

As Guilliman, Regent of Terra, heads off to lead the Indomitus Crusade, he leaves behind a world still in turmoil, beset by cult activity. Stripped of its huge armies for the galactic offensive, recovery is precarious. The Custodians do what they can while keeping the Palace secure, and the Sisters of Silence rebuild their citadel on Luna. When the warship Phalanx returns, it seems that stability will at last be assured. However, as reconquest forces push out further into the slums, they come across signs that another mysterious foe is active. The truth dawns – not every enemy is corrupted by Chaos, for there are many on Terra who do not share Guilliman’s vision of a new order and the prospect of a Terran civil war looms...

Book excerpt: This perceptive book studies the Victorian woman in the home and in the family. One of the central purposes is to rescue Victorian woman from the realm of myth where her life was spent in frivolous trifles and instead to show how she had a major part to play in the practical management of the home. The author makes judicious use of domestic manuals and other material written specifically for middle-class women. With statistical data to quantify the image as well, this book presents a better understanding of what it was like to be a middle-class woman in nineteenth-century England. Looking at the middle-class woman’s problems as mistress of the house, her problems with domestics, her problems as mother and her problems as woman we can begin not merely to characterise the middle-class woman but to define her as an element of British social history and as a silent but significant agent of change. The book was first published in 1975.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Lydia Maria Child (1802-1880) was for a time one of America's most beloved authors, known for household manuals and children's poems, including the immortal "Over the River and Through the Wood." But in 1833, having converted to the abolitionist cause, Child published An Appeal in Favor of that Class of Americans Called Africans, the first book-length condemnation of slavery printed in the United States. Child's book created an immediate uproar and catapulted her into the life of an activist. Lydia Maria Child became one of the most consequential radicals of nineteenth-century America. In this biography of Child, Lydia Moland foregrounds Child's struggles of conscience and the meaning they held for her life-and, potentially, for ours. In her first career, Lydia Maria Child achieved what almost no woman in history had before-she was a self-sufficient female author. What, then, made her throw it all away to write An Appeal? The scandal of that book caused sales of her other books to plummet, polite society to cast her out, her beloved husband David to be jailed for libel, and the two rendered penniless. Yet Child soon drew untold numbers to the cause of abolition with her writings and her deeds. Thomas Wentworth Higginson and Charles Sumner both credit her with their conversion. During the Civil War, the Union Army distributed her words to 300,000 troops to help weary soldiers justify their sacrifice. She spirited endangered abolitionists out of the country, protected activists from angry pro-slavery mobs with her own body, and helped Harriet Jacobs edit Jacobs's autobiography, the most influential slave narrative by a woman in American history. Moland's biography restores this brave and brilliant woman to her proper place in American history while showing how her example answers these urgent questions: When confronted by sanctioned evil or systematic injustice, how should a citizen live? What prompts moral change? When do we have a duty to disobey unjust laws? Child's story is one from the past with much to teach us about our present"--

Book excerpt: Combining the social commentary of The Handmaid’s Tale with the white-knuckled thrills of Red Rising, this epic space opera filled with “lush prose” (Publishers Weekly) follows a comfort woman as she claims her agency, a soldier questioning his allegiances, and a non-binary hero out to save the solar system. First Sister has no name and no voice. As a priestess of the Sisterhood, she travels the stars alongside the soldiers of Earth and Mars—the same ones who own the rights to her body and soul. When her former captain abandons her, First Sister’s hopes for freedom are dashed when she is forced to stay on her ship with no friends, no power, and a new captain—Saito Ren—whom she knows nothing about. She is commanded to spy on Captain Ren by the Sisterhood, but soon discovers that working for the war effort is much harder when you’re falling in love. Lito val Lucius climbed his way out of the slums to become an elite soldier of Venus but was defeated in combat by none other than Saito Ren, resulting in the disappearance of his partner, Hiro. When Lito learns that Hiro is both alive and a traitor to the cause, he now has a shot at redemption: track down and kill his former partner. But when he discovers recordings that Hiro secretly made, Lito’s own allegiances are put to the test. Ultimately, he must decide between following orders and following his heart. With “a layered, action-filled plot and diverse characters” (Library Journal), The First Sister explores the power of technology, colonization, race, and gender and is perfect for fans of James S.A. Corey, Chuck Wendig, and Jay Posey.

Her shorthand may be a little rusty, but this cute blonde is a crack shot with a knack for overcoming obstacles and getting into the places she needs to be. With the help of her friends and family, Brie is going to show the bad guys that, even in Isle Noir, you don't piss off the cute blonde! Whether she can keep a boyfriend is another question entirely.
