  The Chain - Love Betrayal and...

  Chimene Suleyman

  “[Suleyman’s] narration brings a palpably chilling authority to a story she shouldn’t have to tell.” — Vulture 
  A devastating personal testimony and a searing indictment of persistent misogyny. 
  In January 2017, Chimene Suleyman was on her way to an abortion clinic in Queens, New York with her boyfriend, the father of her nascent child. It was the last day they would spend together. In an extraordinary sequence of events, Chimene was to discover the truth of her boyfriend's life: that the man she’d loved had gaslit, lied to, stolen from, and painfully betrayed her and many others. 
  In this spellbinding memoir, Suleyman exposes one man's control over many women and the trauma he left behind and celebrates the sisterhood that formed in his wake despite—and in spite of—him. With radiant prose and incisive observation, Suleyman questions society’s complicity in allowing those who would do women harm to flourish and contemplates why others remain silent witnesses by accepting and normalizing shameless behavior towards women. She demonstrates how women themselves are acculturated to perform prescribed roles of giver and nurturer, to be self-sacrificing and subordinate, and to bolster the egos of others by remaining silent and ignoring their own protective instincts. 
  A soul-baring story, brilliant cultural critique, and celebration of the healing power of sisterhood, The Chain is a book for any woman who has questioned her relationship and buried her doubts, for any woman who can't quite identify the source of her unease and for any woman who has been sheltered by the fierce protection of her female friends.

  Why Women Prefer a Cheater

  A.A. Castor

  Why do women stay with men who cheat on them? 
  Why do so many fall for married men, agree to be the mistress, or even enjoy sex more outside of marriage than within it? 
  Why Women Prefer a Cheater isn't a polite conversation. It's a deep, unapologetic, and disturbingly honest exploration of female desire—rooted in biology, shaped by history, warped by psychology, and censored by culture. 
  This book does not offer empty empowerment slogans or fairy-tale relationship advice. Instead, it tackles the raw and uncomfortable truths:That women are biologically drawn to dominant, often unfaithful men.That affairs can offer psychological escape from the suffocation of modern monogamy.That cultural shame trains women to silently blame themselves for male betrayal.That "loyalty" often rewards women with nothing but resentment and self-erasure. 
  Through chapters like The Dual Mating Strategy, The Psychology of the Mistress, Sex, Marriage, and the Decline of Desire, and The Hidden Cost and Secret Freedom, A.A. Castor exposes the brutal realities behind cheating, desire, and the unspoken decisions women make to survive love, betrayal, and expectation. 
  Blending science, dark humor, and harsh truths, this book isn't for the faint of heart. It's for every woman who's ever been the wife, the other woman, or the one who stopped believing in fairy tales. 
  Forget what society taught you about love. 
  Forget what you were told about loyalty. 
  This book isn't here to comfort—it's here to wake you up.

  Russia's War

  Jade McGlynn

  In the early hours of February 24, 2022, Russian forces attacked Ukraine. The brutality of the Russian assault has horrified the world. But Russians themselves appear to be watching an entirely different war—one in which they are the courageous underdogs and kind-hearted heroes successfully battling a malign Ukrainian foe. 
   
   
   
  Russia analyst Jade McGlynn takes us on a journey into this parallel military and political universe to reveal the sometimes monstrous, sometimes misconstrued attitudes behind Russian majority backing for the invasion. Drawing on media analysis and interviews with ordinary citizens, officials and foreign-policy elites in Russia and Ukraine, McGlynn explores the grievances, lies and half-truths that pervade the Russian worldview. She also exposes the complicity of many Russians, who have invested too deeply in the Kremlin's alternative narratives to regard the war as Putin's foolhardy mission. In their eyes, this is Russia's war—against Ukraine, against the West, against evil—and there can be no turning back.
