ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Ritter, Monique M., PUBLISHER: Eloquent Books, Have you ever looked at your life and questioned some of the choices you've made? Have you wondered what would have happened had you done things differently?Emily Halsey, a successful twenty-seven year old advertising photographer, is confronted with these very issues when she reluctantly accepts concert tickets from a co-worker as a birthday gift.

Emily is forced to re-examine painful events from high school she'd long since tried to forget. True to her favorite poem, The Road Not Taken by Robert Frost, Emily begins to question the current path she's traveling. In a story of stolen innocence, lost love, and tested friendships, we travel with Emily as she revisits her youth. Now that she has seen David again, after ten years, will Emily's choices the second time around be the ones that truly make all the difference?Monique Ritter lives in Pulaski, New York, 30 miles north of Syracuse, where she teaches English.

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Kloefkorn, William, PUBLISHER: University of Nebraska Press, The first volume in William Kloefkorn's four-part memoir which, when completed, will cover the four elements: water, fire, earth, and air."" "This Death by Drowning "is a memoir with a difference--an artfully assembled collection of reminiscences, each having something to do with water. The book's epigraph, from Norman Maclean's "A River Runs Through It," proclaims, "I am haunted by waters." So--and in most rewarding ways--is William Kloefkorn. The first chapter recalls the time when, at age six, the author "came within one gulp of drowning" in a Kansas cow-pasture pond, only to be saved by his father. A later chapter recounts Kloefkorn's younger brother's near death by drowning a few years later; still another envisions the cycle of drought and torrential rains on his grandparents' Kansas farm. There are fanciful memories of the Loup and other Nebraska rivers, interlaced with Mark Twain's renderings of the Mississippi and John Neihardt's poetic descriptions of the Missouri. And there are stories of more recent times--a winter spent in a cabin on the Platte River, and an often amusing Caribbean cruise that Kloefkorn took with his wife. Throughout, Kloefkorn takes his memories for a walk, following each recollection into unexpected, fruitful byways. Along the way he pauses at larger themes--of nature, death, family, and renewal--that gradually gather irresistible force and authority.

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Alford, Amy, PUBLISHER: Xulon Press, Book Description This is the loving, true story about a young woman named Amy and her adopted grandmother, Sandy, sharing what the Bible teaches about living the Christian life. This unexpected relationship bound two women from different generations on the same journey in life. One woman was three steps ahead of the other-older and wiser. The other one was younger and not as wise as she once thought. At first, Amy was simply hoping a little bit of what Sandy had would rub off on her. Over time, she realized that God had more in mind. He wanted to use Sandy to bring her closer to Him than ever before. Amy Alford has photographed some of the world's most powerful and respected leaders, including President George Bush, Jr. and his wife Laura, as well as former President George Bush, Sr., Oprah Winfrey, Benjamin Netanyahu, Senator Kay Bailey Hutchinson and Bill Cosby. However, nothing excites her more than capturing the special moments of children and families. Her mentor, Sandy Edmonson (pictured), has taught a Bible Study at Grace Bible Church in Dallas for 45 years. Amy enjoys her involvement in door-to-door ministry in foreign countries, prison ministry, Bible Study and her involvement in Fellowship Bible Church. She and her husband, Ben, reside in Dallas, Texas with their dog, Buddy.

Deep in the southernmost part of Alabama, along the banks of a lazy winding river, lies the sleepy little community known as Lost River, a place that time itself seems to have forgotten. After a startling diagnosis from his doctor, Oswald T. Campbell leaves behind the cold and damp of the oncoming Chicago winter to spend what he believes will be his last Christmas in the warm and welcoming town of Lost River. There he meets the postman who delivers mail by boat, the store owner who nurses a broken heart, the ladies of the Mystic Order of the Royal Polka Dots Secret Society, who do clandestine good works. And he meets a little redbird named Jack, who is at the center of this tale of a magical Christmas when something so amazing happened that those who witnessed it have never forgotten it.

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Jennings, Kate, PUBLISHER: Scribner Book Company, "I fell in love with a prideful, tense bundle of muscle and sinew that stood seventeen inches high. You would see a small brown dog; I saw perfection." So begins the story of Kate Jennings's unexpected love affair with two border terriers, first Stanley, then, a few years later, Sophie. A fiercely intelligent writer, an astute observer of people and her surroundings, a recent widow not ready to face her grief, an irascible Australian with no time for indulgent New Yorkers and their pampered pets, Jennings falls hard. She is swept off her feet, stunned by the depth of her love. Her life is suddenly overtaken by Stanley and, when she is seduced into getting him a companion, by the pair of them. But after several years with her willful yet cherished dogs, Jennings came to the heartrending realization that they needed more than she could give -- and that she must reassess her own life, too. First and foremost, "Stanley and Sophie" is a book about dogs, understanding them, doing the best by them. It is also a vivid chronicle of Jennings's grief and sadness -- for the loss of a husband, for the city after September 11, for two pigtailed macaques in Bali, for a world going to hell in a handbasket. This is a bittersweet and darkly humorous memoir about the way two rivalrous, demanding, idiosyncratic, exhilarating dogs gave Jennings daily purpose and showed her the way to her own heart.

While on a dangerous quest to identify and execute a band of rogue vampires and their sovereign before they kill more humans, the Enforcers sneak into their informant's apartment in the middle of the night. A corpse with its mouth frozen open in a scream lies on the living room floor in a pool of blood. Their informant, Scummer, is dead, and it is obvious that whatever killed him had no mercy.

But when the Graces move into the Deadlies' house to hide from an overzealous celebrity reporter, Bane soon realizes they are all bound to protect humans and supernaturals from danger. As the Deadlies attempt to identify the rogue sovereign vampire and find out who murdered their informant, Bane's twin brother, Demon, makes the Graces an offer they cannot refuse. As soon as the Graces agree to help, the Enforcers embark on a search for two missing gnomes-all while still attempting to fit in the usual executions.

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Depp, Laurie, PUBLISHER: Hodder Children's Books, Dylan, Andy, and Elliana (Ellie to her friends) have been passionate about their band, BlackStar, for as long as Ellie can remember. She loves the buzz of performing and the magical adulation from the crowd, and she counts the boys as her best friends, even if they do fight like cat and dog all the time. But Ellie's feelings for Dylan have turned from platonic to something else, just lately, and that's tricky, because Ellie is going out with Andy. It's getting more difficult to cope with her feelings and with Dylan's moody, self-destructive impulses, so when Ellie secretly auditions for a Pop Idol style talent show, she knows she's going to have to make a decision about where her musical future lies--as a mass-market pop act or a credible indie singer with a cool and original band like Blackstar. Ellie sings a song written by Dylan for her final performance on the talent show and wins. The crowd can't get enough of her, or the song it seems, and that's when Ellie's conscience kicks in. Can she really betray Dylan to serve her own needs? And does her heart really belong with Blackstar after all? As she stands to receive her winning ovation, Ellie makes a courageous decision.
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Black, Benjamin / Black, PUBLISHER: Picador USA, One of The "Chicago Tribune"'s Best Reads of . One of Dublin's most powerful men meets a violent end--and an acknowledged master of crime fiction delivers his most gripping novel yet. On a sweltering summer afternoon, newspaper tycoon Richard Jewell--known to his many enemies as Diamond Dick--is discovered with his head blown off by a shotgun blast. But is it suicide or murder? For help with the investigation, Detective Inspector Hackett calls in his old friend Quirke, who has unusual access to Dublin's elite. Jewell's coolly elegant French wife, Francoise, seems less than shocked by her husband's death. But Dannie, Jewell's high-strung sister, is devastated, and Quirke is surprised to learn that in her grief she has turned to an unexpected friend: David Sinclair, Quirke's ambitious assistant in the pathology lab at the Hospital of the Holy Family. Further, Sinclair has been seeing Quirke's fractious daughter Phoebe, and an unlikely romance is blossoming between the two. As a record heat wave envelops the city and the secret deals underpinning Diamond Dick's empire begin to be revealed, Quirke and Hackett find themselves caught up in a dark web of intrigue and violence that threatens to end in disaster. Tightly plotted and gorgeously written, "A Death in Summer "proves to the brilliant but sometimes reckless Quirke that in a city where old money and the right bloodlines rule, he is by no means safe from mortal danger.
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Mallo, Ernesto / Silver, Katherine, PUBLISHER: Bitter Lemon Press, Praise for Ernesto Mallo's "Needle in a Haystack" "A vivid and compelling picture of a society riven by corruption, social breakdown, and casual brutality. A pacy, intense, and thought-provoking read."--"Guardian" "Martin Cruz Smith and Philip Kerr fans will be rewarded."--"Publishers Weekly" "A gritty, painful portrait of a dystopian culture spinning further and further out of control. A compelling, blood-stained document of tyranny and brutality told with skill and passion."--"Crime Time" In the second book in the Superintendent Lascano series, Lascano is drawn into a war between the Buenos Aires chief of police and the Apostles, drug-dealing cops who want to control the city. When the chief of police is murdered, Lascano becomes the Apostles' next target. His only way out of the country is to retrieve the loot from a bungled bank robbery. Ernesto Mallo paints a scathing portrait of Argentina, where the Junta's generals are paraded in court in civilian clothes and treated like mere petty thieves. Corruption and violence continue to rule, but at the center of the novel lies a touching portrayal of two broken men, a cop and a robber, whose humanity is sorely tested by the troubles racking their beloved country. Born in , Ernesto Mallo is a published essayist, newspaper columnist, and playwright. He is a former militant, pursued by the dictatorship as a member of the guerilla movement.
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Hornby, Nick, PUBLISHER: Riverhead Books, From the beloved "New York Times"- bestselling author, a quintessential Nick Hornby tale of music, superfandom, and the truths and lies we tell ourselves about life and love. Annie loves Duncan-or thinks she does. Duncan loves Annie, but then, all of a sudden, he doesn't. Duncan really loves Tucker Crowe, a reclusive Dylanish singer-songwriter who stopped making music ten years ago. Annie stops loving Duncan, and starts getting her own life. In doing so, she initiates an e-mail correspondence with Tucker, and a connection is forged between two lonely people who are looking for more out of what they've got. Tucker's been languishing (and he's unnervingly aware of it), living in rural Pennsylvania with what he sees as his one hope for redemption amid a life of emotional and artistic ruin-his young son, Jackson. But then there's also the new material he's about to release to the world: an acoustic, stripped-down version of his greatest album, "Juliet"-entitled, "Juliet, Naked." What happens when a washed-up musician looks for another chance? And miles away, a restless, childless woman looks for a change? "Juliet, Naked" is a powerfully engrossing, humblingly humorous novel about music, love, loneliness, and the struggle to live up to one's promise.

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Kanon, Joseph, PUBLISHER: Atria Books, From the acclaimed, bestselling author of "Stardust, " "The Good German, "and "Los Alamos"--a gripping tale of an American undercover agent in Istanbul who descends into the murky cat-and-mouse world of compromise and betrayal that will come to define the entire post-war era. A neutral capital straddling Europe and Asia, Istanbul has spent the war as a magnet for refugees and spies. Even American businessman Leon Bauer has been drawn into this shadow world, doing undercover odd jobs and courier runs for the Allied war effort. Now as the espionage community begins to pack up and an apprehensive city prepares for the grim realities of post-war life, he is given one more assignment, a routine job that goes fatally wrong, plunging him into a tangle of intrigue and moral confusion. Played out against the bazaars and mosques and faded mansions of this knowing, ancient Ottoman city, Leon's attempt to save one life leads to a desperate manhunt and a maze of shifting loyalties that threatens his own. How do you do the right thing when there are only bad choices to make? "Istanbul Passage" is the story of a man swept up in the aftermath of war, an unexpected love affair, and a city as deceptive as the calm surface waters of the Bosphorus that divides it. Rich with atmosphere and period detail, Joseph Kanon's latest novel flawlessly blends fact and fiction into a haunting thriller about the dawn of the Cold War, once again proving why Kanon has been hailed as the "heir apparent to Graham Greene" ("The Boston Globe").
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Moceanu, Dominique / Williams, Paul / Williams, Teri, PUBLISHER: Touchstone Books, An unflinchingly honest memoir from Olympic gold medalist Dominique Moceanu that reveals the often dark underbelly of Olympic gymnastics as only an insider can--and the secrets she learned about the past that nearly tore apart her family.At fourteen years old, Dominique Moceanu was the youngest member of the U.S. Women's Olympic Gymnastic team, the first and only American women's team to take gold at the Olympics. Her pixie-like appearance, passion for the sport, and ferocious competitive drive quickly earned her the status of media darling. But behind the fame, the flawless floor routines, and the million-dollar smile, her life was a series of challenges and hardships. From her stubborn father and long-suffering mother, to her acclaimed Svengali-like coach, Bela Karolyi, "Off Balance" reveals how each of the dominating characters contributed to Moceanu's rise to the top. Here, Moceanu finally shares the haunting stories of competition, her years of hiding injuries and pain out of fear of retribution from her coaches, and how she hit rock bottom after being publicly scorned by her father. But medals, murder plots, drugs, and daring escapes aside (all of which figure into Moceanu's incredible journey), the most unique aspect of her life is the family secret that Moceanu discovers, opening a new and unexpected chapter in her adult life, just as she reclaims the love of the sport that had defined so much of her life. A multilayered memoir that transcends the world of gymnastics and sport, "Off Balance "will touch anyone who has ever dared to dream of a better life.
