There are layers-characters, hints, world building, magic, reveals, etc.-that need to be weaved into the fiber of every scene, and I am really good at forgetting things (all things-names, my kids’ activities, where I put my keys, etc.). What was the most challenging thing when it came to writing Shielded? I didn’t decide to sit and finish a draft until a few months before I turned thirty. Reading has always been a big part of my life, but I always thought writing a book would be too hard (I wasn’t wrong about that, lol). Shielded has been through about twenty major revisions-plot changes, character changes, and I even took out a POV character! But with the help of my beta readers, agent, and editor, I think the story that will come out in July is the best yet, and I’m so excited for others to meet Jenna!ĭid you always know that you wanted to be a writer? ![]() I’ve been working on it for almost five years, tearing it apart and piecing it back together, and now that it’s in print, with people I’ve never met reading it, I’m always surprised when someone likes it! It’s been a long road to get where I’m at, though. It’s surreal to have words that I wrote out in the world connecting with other people. It appears that Shielded is your debut novel as an author, what is that like? What is the process that you went through when writing your novel like? ![]() ![]() ![]() " draws on her personal recollections and interviews with Jane members and clients and the doctors who performed the abortions to provide a well-written, detailed history of this radical group."- Publisher's Weekly "Laura Kaplan's The Story of Jane is the first book to chronicle this controversial sliver of history, and it is a fascinating, if partisan, close-up of the group."- Newsday It serves to remind people of an important and often overlooked moment in the women's rights movement."- Seattle Weekly " The Story of Jane is a piece of women's history in step with feminist theory demanding that women tell their own stories.

The film, which debuted at Sundance in January to acclaim, winningly mashes up everything from “Before Sunrise” to “Notting Hill” as it follows the charming Dom (David Jonsson) and the effervescent Yas (Vivian Oparah) as they walk and talk their way through South London after a meet-cute in a public bathroom. ![]() Surprise! With “ Rye Lane,” Allen-Miller didn’t just make a rom-com, she made a great rom-com. I never really thought I would direct a rom-com,” the director told IndieWire during a recent interview. One thing she didn’t consider? “I can tell you that it wouldn’t have been a rom-com. It would be set in her own stomping grounds of South London, and it definitely had to be funny. When filmmaker Raine Allen-Miller pictured her debut film, she had a few ideas she couldn’t shake. ![]() 5/12/2023 0 Comments Dawn of wonder the wakening book 1![]() ![]() ![]() And not just any story would get my nephew recommending this to all his brothers and sisters, and any friend within earshot too. ![]() The book’s size is not so typical – the 700-page first-of-the-series would make for a good doorstop. ![]() In the adventures that follow Aedan is equal parts determined and desperate, willing to do and try whatever it takes to retrieve, or revenge, his lost companion. But when no one will listen, his foresight isn’t enough to save his not-yet-a-girlfriend-but-already-his-best-friend Kalry. So when an officer comes galloping into the village with warnings of slavers on the way, Aedan is the first to suspect the man might not be the ally he seems. Our hero, Aedan, is not yet thirteen but he has a sharp mind, and he’s had a hard life, which makes him wise beyond those few years. And, as many a fantasy tale contains, there are swords, courageous heroes, battles to be fought (and sometimes with large, very toothy creatures), and evil not yet here but lurking ominously. This might, at first glance, seem to be your typical boy-meets-girl, boy-dares-girl-to-jump-off-of-a-thousand-foot-high-bridge-into-the-icy-cold-stream-below-and-girl-shows-him-up- by-actually-doing-it story. ![]() 5/12/2023 0 Comments Raw blue by kirsty eagar![]() Then Carly meets Ryan, who seems to be attracted to her. She keeps to herself, and to her surfing, because it was the only thing that could help her forget about what happened two years ago in school. Plus I have been craving for some good contemporary YA book from all the serious, adult books I’ve been reading back then.Ĭarly quit university to spend her days surfing in the morning and working as a cook in a cafe in the evening. ![]() I picked up Raw Blue because I was headed for a trip to the beach with my colleagues, where there were chances to surf (which we didn’t really do). Of course, as with most of these good Aussie fiction, it was kind of hard to acquire a copy, so I was really, really glad when this was picked up by a UK publisher so it was available via Book Depository. I’ve heard of Raw Blue several times from friends who raved about it, and said it was exceptionally good Aussie fiction. Will she let the past bury her? Or can she let go of her anger and shame, and find the courage to be happy? When Ryan learns the truth, Carly has to decide. ![]() Surfing is the one thing she loves doing … and the only thing that helps her stop thinking about what happened two years ago at schoolies week.Īnd then Carly meets Ryan, a local at the break, fresh out of jail. My copy: paperback, from Book DepositoryĬarly has dropped out of uni to spend her days surfing and her nights working as a cook in a Manly café. ![]() 5/12/2023 0 Comments Intro to the devout life![]() ![]() This book is truly medicine for the soul. Above all, he is a spiritual genius, and thus was made a Doctor of the Church. Even non-Christians have admired his prose. ![]() His writings are characterized by sublime common sense. Francis de Sales was a master psychologist, with a special gift for teaching practical morality. It has always occupied a privileged position in the Church: no guide ever written provides so complete, so balanced and so practical an approach to the spiritual life. Since its first publication in 1609 this book has never gone out of print. This book does what many similar books fail to do, teach the reader to grow in holiness, step by simple step. Written for the layman surrounded by worldliness, this is a masterpiece of mystical and devotional literature, by a great and much loved Doctor of the Church. ![]() 5/11/2023 0 Comments The Way to Bethlehem by Inos Biffi![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Another variation of this folktale can be found in the lovely book: The Birds’ Gift: A Ukrainian Easter Story by Eric Kimmel. It’s a great kickstart to any kind of pysanky projects one might want to delve into. No one captures pastoral Ukraine or Russia like Patricia Polacco and Rechenka’s Eggs is one of our very favorite books to bring out toward the end of Lent and close to the Easter season. The tiniest little sister gets lost and goes through a series of adventures before finding her way back to her home with the other matryoshka sisters. I am especially fond of The Littlest Matryoshka by Corinne Bliss right now because my daughter finally has a sister! And this story captures that special relationship between sisters just beautifully. But I will spotlight my three very favorite (excluding Christmas themes, that is) stories based in Russia from our collection: I’m savoring these precious days with our new baby girl… spending all my hours nursing, changing and holding the baby while wondering how to make the laundry do itself.Īnd I’m watching the Olympics! We love the Olympics in this house! I won’t spend hours telling you about all the great picture books about Russia there are plenty of lists online. ![]() 5/11/2023 0 Comments Av geiger![]() ![]() Tessa has been agoraphobic ever since that incident during the summer in New Orleans. Like authors Taran Matharu and Estelle Maskame, Geiger has found an audience in the millions before her book has even been traditionally published and after reading it, I can see why.

Told through tweets, direct messages, and police transcripts, this thriller for the online generation will keep you guessing right up to the shocking end. And when the two arrange to meet IRL, what should have made for the world’s best episode of Catfish takes a deadly turn… But Eric’s plan to troll unexpectedly evolves into an online relationship deeper than either could have imagined.
