    Step back in time to 1960, when the quiet town of Upper Middleton was forever changed by the unyielding hand of Aunty Mae. Widowed and grieving, Aunty Mae stumbled upon a young thief in her garden – Emma Dixon. What began as a spontaneous act of discipline blossomed into a peculiar arrangement: Emma, at the tender age of 19, willingly toiled in Aunty Mae's garden, subject to regular bare-bottomed spankings.Aunty Mae  
    The twist in this tale unravels when Aunty Mae and a group of young women unearth an old punishment book in the dusty recesses of the community school. As fate would have it, the book becomes a token of a secret pact, binding these six 19-year-olds to Aunty Mae's disciplinary world. The echoes of their spankings lingered through the years, some returning willingly, others at the insistence of their husbands. 
    Aunty Mae's penchant for punishment took an unexpected turn in 1962 when she found herself offering advice as an agony aunt for the local church paper. Her columns, laden with the wisdom of a disciplinarian, skyrocketed in popularity. Aunty Mae's notoriety spread beyond Upper Middleton, as she fearlessly recommended spankings for the undisciplined, both young and old. 
    Enter the captivating world of "Aunty Mae's Punishment Book" by Paula Mann, where discipline meets nostalgia, secrets are exposed, and Aunty Mae's unorthodox methods leave an indelible mark on the quaint town of Upper Middleton. Spanning decades, this tale is a unique blend of history, humour, and a touch of spice, promising a journey through time that you won't soon forget.

    "This audiobook is a touching testament to the power of stories, nature, and love to sustain and connect us." - AudioFile on Everything Left to Remember BETWEEN TWO KINGDOMS meets WILD. In this heart wrenching and inspirational memoir a woman and her mother, who is suffering from Alzheimer’s, embark on a road trip through national parks, revisiting the memories, and the mountains, that made them who they are.Steph Jagger lost her mother before she lost her. Her mother, stricken with an incurable disease that slowly erases all sense of self, struggles to remember her favorite drink, her favorite song, and—perhaps most heartbreaking of all—Steph herself. Steph watches as the woman who loved and raised her slips away before getting the chance to tell her story, and so Steph makes a promise: her mother will walk it and she will write it.Too aware of her mother’s waning memory, Steph proposes that the two take a camping trip out to Montana—which her mother, on the urging of Steph’s father, agrees to embark upon. An adventure full of horseback riding, hiking, and “tenting” out West quickly turns into one woman’s reflection on childhood, motherhood, personhood—and what it means to love someone who doesn’t quite remember the person she spent her lifetime becoming.A staggeringly beautiful examination of how stories are passed down through generations and from Mother Nature, Everything Left to Remember brings us the wisdom of who our memories make us under the constellations of the vast Montana sky.A Macmillan Audio production from Flatiron Books

    In San Fransicko (2021), bestselling author Michael Shellenberger tackles the problem of increasing homelessness, especially in the city of San Francisco. He argues that the root cause isn’t the absence of accommodation, money, or social aid programs, but the principles embedded in the minds of some people who acquire them either by experience or by identity. As a result, the values that allow cities and civilizations to exist are diminishing. 
    Progressives always claim to have solutions for the issues of homelessness, crime, drug abuse, alcoholism, and inequality. However, a close examination of faltering cities shows that these social problems have become exceptionally worse under the control of progressives. In response, Shellenberger looks for a different way forward that will help both homeless people and the community around them.
