    A blistering criticism of the literary world in which she lived, Charlotte Brontë's "The Biographical Notes on the Pseudonymous Bells" contains two fascinating and insightful essays by the author of "Jane Eyre" addressing her late sisters' Emily and Anne's writing careers (Emily wrote "Wuthering Heights," Anne created "Agnes Grey" and"The Tenant of Wildfell Hall").  With surprising frankness and honesty, Charlotte offers a glimpse of the challenges the young women faced when trying to get their respective works published, which included taking on male pen names - Currer (Charlotte), Ellis (Emily), and Acton (Anne) Bell - in an attempt to sidestep the harsher criticism female authors so often received.  Charlotte - writing as the sole surviving member of the famous "Brontë Sisters" writing trio - also explores some of the qualities that distinguish her sisters from each other - and from other writers - and takes the reader behind the scenes to reveal the difficulties they faced in bringing these groundbreaking novels to the world.

    What are the lives of America's richest families really like? Their nannies see it all . . . 
     
     
     
    When Stephanie Kiser moves to New York City after college to pursue a career in writing, she quickly learns that her entry-level salary won't cover the cost of living. But there is one in-demand job that pays enough to allow Stephanie to stay in the city: nannying for the 1%. Desperate to escape the poverty of her own childhood, Stephanie falls into a job that hijacks her life for the next seven years: a glorified personal assistant to toddlers on Manhattan's Upper East Side. 
     
     
     
    At first, nannying seems like the perfect solution—the high pay covers Stephanie's bills, and she's surprised by how attached she becomes to the kids she cares for, even as she gasps over Prada baby onesies and preschools that cost more than her college tuition. But the grueling twelve-hour days leave her little time to see her friends, date, or pursue any creative projects that might lead to a more prestigious career. The allure of the seemingly-glamorous job begins to dull as Stephanie comes to understand more about what really happens behind the closed doors of million-dollar Park Avenue apartments—and that money doesn't guarantee happiness. Soon she will have to decide whether to stay with the children she's grown to love, or if there's something better out there.

    Kevin Federline: dancer, father, accidental icon. His star rose electrifying stages alongside Pink and Michael Jackson, but it was his turbulent marriage to pop superstar Britney Spears that made him a household name, and thrust him into a relentless 25-year media storm, reduced to a caricature by a world that barely knew him. But behind the tabloid headlines was a devoted father fighting for his children, his sanity, and his identity. From the heights of global stardom to the pain of public fallout, this memoir peels back the layers of fame, fortune and fatherhood to reveal the man behind the mythology. A man shaped not by spectacle or spotlight, but love, resilience, and the steadfast resolve to start over. What you thought you knew was only half the story.

    'There were twenty-five hours in my day then ... any job or challenge that the ocean or the harbour might offer was an option. I undertook them all.'
    Des Lavelle was born on Valentia Island in County Kerry in 1934, surrounded by the wild Atlantic waters. Known to the world for his passion for the nearby Skellig Islands, Des has led a fascinating and varied life, but his heart forever draws him back to Valentia. His wide-ranging memoir takes us on an extraordinary journey from an idyllic childhood on Valentia, through a short-lived 'permanent, pensionable job' with the Western Union Telegraph Company to a rich and fascinating life where the sea always offered opportunities.
    When the movie Ryan's Daughter needed marine advice in 1968, they came to Des. In 1974 a North Sea oil rig sought him out to help with a giant safety net, and a few years later his special skills came to the fore once more as Telecom Éireann laid their cables under the waves. From sea-faring on his beloved 32ft Béal Bocht to pioneering deep-sea diving, running a ferry, campaigning for his beloved island outpost, crewing with the Valentia lifeboat and travelling to far-flung places, Des Lavelle shares his ups and downs on his road to becoming a renowned author and expert on the historical and wildlife riches of Kerry's intriguing Skellig Islands.
    Island Boy is the compelling story of a man born and raised in Valentia and of a unique life that he continues to live to the full.

    Every year, hundreds of thousands of young people pack their bags to study or volunteer abroad. Well-intentioned and curious Westerners—brought up to believe that international travel broadens our horizons—travel to low-income countries to learn about people and cultures different from their own. While travel abroad can provide much-needed perspective, it can also be deeply unsettling, confusing, and discomforting. Travelers can find themselves unsure about how to think or speak about the differences in race or culture they find, even though these differences might have fueled their desire to travel in the first place. 
     
     
     
    In Beyond Guilt Trips: Mindful Travel in an Unequal World, storyteller Anu Taranath begins at home, unpacking our baggage about who we are, where we come from, and how much we have. She takes us on a journey through engaging personal travel stories and thought-provoking questions, providing us with tools to grapple with our discomfort and navigate differences with accountability and connection. Yes, travel! But be mindful. Be present.

    Orígenes de la Discapacidad es un testimonio poético y espiritual que recorre miles de años de historia para revelar cómo las personas con diferencias físicas fueron vistas en la antigüedad: no como errores, sino como parte de la creación misma. 
    Desde los altares sumerios hasta los juicios modernos, este libro desnuda el peso del silencio, el castigo y la indiferencia que marcaron a generaciones enteras. Cada capítulo mezcla memoria, denuncia y fe, mostrando que el dolor no siempre trae lecciones, que el silencio puede ser tanto lápida como resistencia, y que incluso los dioses alguna vez fueron incompletos. 
    Más que un estudio académico, este audiolibro es un viaje íntimo y simbólico que transforma la percepción de la discapacidad en algo sagrado. Su narración pausada y profunda invita a escuchar con el corazón abierto, dejando que cada palabra arda en la conciencia. 
    Para quienes alguna vez se sintieron excluidos, invisibles o juzgados, Orígenes de la Discapacidad ofrece un mensaje claro: la historia no está completa sin nuestras voces.
