A fera alex flinn6/10/2023 ![]() ![]() I thought this was a really important topic, as 27 percent of teenage girls surveyed have been hit by a boyfriend. I based the book on my experiences interning with the State Attorney's Office and volunteering with battered women. ![]() Breathing Underwater deals with the serious and all-too-common problem of dating violence. It was law school that probably helped with my first novel. I studied opera in college (I'm a coloratura - the really loud, high-pitched sopranos.) and then went to law school. By high school, I'd made some friends and gotten involved in various "gifted and talented" performing arts programs. I had a really hard time making friends, so I spent a lot of time reading and writing then. My family moved to Miami when I was in middle school. ![]() Zeiser, told my mother, "Alexandra marches to her own drummer." I don't think that was supposed to be a compliment. When the other kids were on Book 20, I was on Book 1! My teacher, Mrs. But I compensated for this early proficiency by absolutely refusing to read the programmed readers required by the school system - workbooks where you read the story, then answered the questions. And when I was eight, I got my first rejection letter from Highlights Magazine. When I was five, my mom said I should be an author. ![]() This probably influenced my interest in witches. I grew up on a street called Salem Court. Love Jacaranda is out in the world! Hope you'll check out this fun wish-fulfillment romance! ![]()

Elske cynthia voigt6/9/2023 ![]() Voigt was born on February 25, 1942, in Boston, Massachusetts, to Frederick and Elise Irving. Able to cross between varieties of genre and audience with equal grace and sophistication, Voigt and her diverse canon of fantasy, realism, and picture books display a similarly unconventional narrative perspective that defines the author's style and voice. The second book in the series, Dicey's Song (1982), won the Newbery Medal, American children's literature highest honor, with A Solitary Blue (1983) earning a further Newbery Honor citation. Voigt is perhaps best known for her "Tillerman" novels, a seven-book series that explores the difficult adolescence of the four Tillerman children after their abandonment by their mother and adoption by their grandmother in rural Maryland. ![]() INTRODUCTIONĪ versatile author who targets readers from pre-schoolers to adults, Voigt is a multiple award-winner whose novels recognize strong female protagonists and dysfunctional family relationships.

Fifth avenue 5 am sam wasson6/9/2023 ![]() Before Breakfast at Tiffany's a woman like Golightly, a woman who lived alone, slept around, and pretty much did whatever da fuck she wanted, would have needed to be reformed or die by the end of the movie. ![]() Hepburn's Holly Golightly was also in its time considered a feminist touchstone. Breakfast at Tiffany's led to the popularization of the ultimate fashion stable The Little Black Dress. I didn't realize how transformative and culturally significant Breakfast at Tiffany's was and is. Reading this book has made me want to push it up my list and Hey! I've got the time now. I'm not a huge Audrey Hepburn fan(sorry) but it is on my list of movies to watch before I die. ![]() ![]() Old Hollywood, Classic film, celebrity, and fashion.īefore I go any further I must admit that I have never watched the film Breakfast at Tiffany's or read the novel its based on. ![]()

The unincorporated man series6/8/2023 ![]() ![]() ![]() The trend of rising economic damage is expected to continue. But improved early warnings and coordinated disaster management has slashed the human casualty toll over the past half a century” WMO said in a statement. The stark recap from WMO came as it opened its four-yearly congress among member countries, pressing the message that more needs to be done to improve alert systems for extreme weather events by a target date of 2027. The World Meteorological Organization, in an updated report, tallied nearly 12,000 extreme weather, climate and water-related events over the past half-century around the globe that have killed more than 2 million people and caused economic damage of $4.3 trillion. GENEVA (AP) - The economic damage of weather- and climate-related disasters continues to rise, even as improvements in early warning have helped reduce the human toll, the U.N. ![]()

![]() ![]() I don’t think you need to like poetry to fall in love with this book. ![]() Reading about women overcoming obstacles is always fantastic, but reading this, a book about a real woman who truly had to fight her demons to become herself, was inspiring beyond belief. This is the story of a woman coming to realize her power and abilities, despite what has happened. It is a heavy book for one so brief and filled with poems, but it’s incredible. This is a book of poetry that follows our author through multiple hurdles in quite early stages of her life, dealing with boys, relationships, and death. I picked up The Princess Saves Herself in This One by Amanda Lovelace not knowing what exactly was in store, but I’m glad I checked it out. ![]() But sometimes, I need a little dose of nonfiction a moment to live in someone else’s story. It’s my favorite genre, and is usually easiest for me to read, because escaping into books can be truly wonderful. ![]()

Until class gets “a fraction less boring” when Bethany is caught “hunched down behind her math book”. Owen is in math class, mentally enumerating tortuously dull things to prove that nothing is more boring than fractions. …Or it might just destroy the Kiel Gnomenfoot series, reveal Bethany’s secret to the entire world, and force Owen to live out Kiel Gnomenfoot’s final (very final) adventure. Besides, visiting the book might help Bethany find her father… ![]() It turns out Bethany’s half-fictional and has been searching every book she can find for her missing father, a fictional character.īethany can’t let anyone else learn her secret, so Owen makes her a deal: All she has to do is take him into a book in Owen’s favorite Kiel Gnomenfoot series, and he’ll never say a word. Owen knows that better than anyone, what with the real world’s homework and chores.īut everything changes the day Owen sees the impossible happen-his classmate Bethany climb out of a book in the library. ![]() Life is boring when you live in the real world, instead of starring in your own book series. ![]() |
