Book 15 - A Murder of Consequence A surprise early morning phone call from an old friend sets Darcy Sweet's sixth sense humming. Darcy's friend needs her help with something but won't say what it is. Darcy promises to drive the five hours to her friend's house the next day. Upon arrival she discovers the shocking news that her friend's husband, Braden has just been murdered! Trying to help find the killer, Darcy is almost immediately dragged into the murder investigation. The further into the investigation she gets the more secrets she uncovers. Half-truths and lies and mysteries within mysteries. It seems things aren't really as they appear to be. Who killed Braden and why? Will Darcy be able to work it out before she realizes that her own life may be in danger also? Book 16 - Til Death Do Us Part Spring is in the air in Misty Hollow. And so is Mystery... Once again. As Darcy Sweet prepares for her upcoming wedding it should be the talk of the town. However, the discovery of human bones in a box overshadows that. The gossip mill is buzzing and it's all anyone can talk about. Not Darcy though... She is just glad that this particular mystery is happening outside of Misty Hollow. She and Jon won't be getting wrapped up in this one. They'll be spending their time concentrating on their wedding plans. Won’t that be a nice change? Book 17 - Murder Down Under Darcy and Jon are finally married and heading to Australia for their honeymoon. A whole week in Tasmania staying at the Pine Lake Inn with nothing to do but act like tourists. No ghosts to deal with. No mysteries to solve. Just rest and relaxation. It will be a welcome change having nothing to worry about. That is until they actually arrive at their destination. They find that three people have died just recently under suspicious circumstances and a fourth has just been released from hospital. That is definitely something to worry about. The local police department doesn't seem too worried about it though so it's up to Darcy and Jon to figure it all out. Will they be able to catch a killer in their midst before the unknown person strikes again? Book 18 - Laid to Rest Home from her honeymoon in Australia Darcy Sweet is settling nicely into life as a married woman. The spirit world in Misty Hollow is uncharacteristically quiet and peaceful and even her Great Aunt Millie is unusually quiet. Which is very odd. It was like all of the ghosts have just... gone. Darcy doesn't mind... it's a chance for some peace and quiet and gives her the illusion that she is just an ordinary woman living an ordinary life. At least, that is, until she discovers something strange about her Great Aunt's death that raises some questions about how Millie actually died. But she died from natural causes... didn't she? Darcy has always believed it to be true... so when evidence comes to light that this may not have been the case Darcy's whole world is shaken to the core. Can Darcy and Jon work out what's going on before someone else close to them loses their life?

Book excerpt: "For sixteen years, from the time he was assigned Chief of Station for the CIA in Saigon to his appointment as CIA Director, William Colby was deeply involved in America's role in Vietnam. During five presidential administrations -- Eisenhower, Kennedy, Johnson, Nixon, and Ford -- Colby moved from meetings in the Oval Office to the sweltering jungles of Vietnam as the war escalated from Vietcong guerilla terrorism to a massive U.S. military engagement. Lost Victory is his personal account of those years, an insider's view of America's first major military defeat told from a vantage point matched by few other officials."--Book cover, p. [4].

Book excerpt: From #1 New York Times bestselling author Ellen Hopkins comes a new heartbreakingly tender middle grade novel in verse about the bonds between two brothers and the love they share. Twelve-year-old Trace Reynolds has always looked up to his brother, mostly because Will, who's five years older, has never looked down on him. It was Will who taught Trace to ride a bike, would watch sports on TV with him, and cheer him on at Little League. But when Will was knocked out cold during a football game, resulting in a brain injury--everything changed. Now, seventeen months later, their family is still living under the weight of "the incident," that left Will with a facial tic, depression, and an anger he cannot always control, culminating in their parents' divorce. Afraid of further fracturing his family, Trace begins to cover for Will who, struggling with addiction to pain medication, becomes someone Trace doesn’t recognize. But when the brother he loves so much becomes more and more withdrawn, and escalates to stealing money and ditching school, Trace realizes some secrets cannot be kept if we ever hope to heal.

Book excerpt: “Will make many readers smile with recognition.”—The New Yorker “Readaholics, meet your new best friend.”—People “This book is bliss.”—The Boston Globe Sometimes subtle, sometimes striking, the interplay between our lives and our books is the subject of this unique memoir by well-known publishing correspondent and self-described “readaholic” Sara Nelson. The project began as an experiment with a simple plan—fifty-two weeks, fifty-two books—that fell apart in the first week. It was then that Sara realized the books chose her as much as she chose them, and the rewards and frustrations they brought were nothing she could plan for. From Solzhenitsyn to Laura Zigman, Catherine M. to Captain Underpants, the result is a personal chronicle of insight, wit, and enough infectious enthusiasm to make a passionate reader out of anybody.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Annie Proulx is one of the most provocative and stylistically innovative writers in America today. She is at her best in the short story format, and the best of these are to be found in her Wyoming trilogy, in which she turns her eye on America's West--both past and present. Yet despite the vast amount of print expended reviewing her books, there has been nothing published on the Wyoming Stories. The Lost Frontier fills this critical void by offering a detailed examination of the key stories in the trilogy: Close Range (1999), Bad Dirt (2004), Fine Just the Way it Is (2008). The chapters are arranged according to western archetypes--the Pioneer, Rancher, Cowboy, Indian, and, arguably, the most important character of them all in Proulx's fiction: Landscape. The Lost Frontier offers students a clear sense of the novelist's early life and work, her stylistic influences and the characteristics of her fiction and an understanding of where the Wyoming Stories, and Annie Proulx's work as a whole, fits into traditional and contemporary writing about the American West.
