  Don’t miss the war stories. Ghormley is a history buff and liberally illustrates his subject with World War II experiences from his own father in the U.S. Navy, and those of others.

With a clear-eyed acknowledgment of the reality and seriousness of events beyond our control, Ghormley shows the way to meet the most difficult challenges of life head-on.

  Three reasons I’m getting in a car with a stranger by Josie Woodmere: 
  1. My piece of crap car is on fire on the side of the highway. 
  2. The guy in the truck doesn’t look like a murderer… in fact, he’s hot.  
  3. Even if he tries something, I’m confident I could take him. 
  Hottie in the truck, Brinn McRae turns out to be straight-laced and so not my type. Plus, I’m not looking for romance. I have to find a job and my estranged brother.  
  The universe must have different plans because the first job my Daytona temp agency sends me to is Brinn’s flight school. And if I thought we weren’t compatible before, working in his small office makes me question my feelings. The only problem is I’m not sure if I want to loosen his straight-laces or choke him with them. 
  I don’t know if he’s the man I want, but I’m positive I’m the girl he needs. 
  Escape to Daytona Beach, Florida in this enemies to lover romance. The Girl He Needs is the first book in the No Strings Attached Series but each book can be read as a standalone. Only, you'll love this group of friends and want to share in their journey for love, happiness, and a few good laughs.

  "The audio is jam-packed with original songs, recordings of live events, and snippets from the podcast. Simply put, it slays." — Library JournalRead by the authors and hosts of the hit podcast Buffering the Vampire Slayer, this memoir reflects on heartbreak, perseverance, building community, and life lessons learned from Buffy the Vampire Slayer. This audiobook features bonus songs, jingles, and clips from the podcast and live shows, and contributions from fans/committed Scoobies.Kristin and Jenny’s marriage started with an ultimatum: to further their relationship, Kristin must watch Jenny's favorite show, Buffy the Vampire Slayer. With the terms set, they began a journey that has led them through seven seasons of the beloved genre show, a podcast rewatching the series with their newly minted listenership of “Scoobies,” unexpected success, and a divorce. Through it all, their love for Buffy and their commitment to their community held them together against the odds.Slayers, Every One of Us is the story of how two queer women navigated divorce on a very public level and managed to stay in each other’s lives through it all. While chock full of Buffy-related content (and Buffering!) for true fans, this is ultimately a memoir of queer love and chosen family. It's a heartwarming story for anyone who's experienced lost love, and a roadmap for staying close with your ex.A Macmillan Audio production from St. Martin’s Press.

  Vile Bodies

  Evelyn Waugh

  Vile Bodies is Evelyn Waugh's sharp and unsparing satire of interwar British society. Set among London's restless young elite, the novel follows a loose circle of socialites whose lives revolve around parties, gossip, money troubles, and emotional detachment, all unfolding against a backdrop of impending collapse.Waugh's style is fast, clipped, and deliberately superficial. Dialogue replaces introspection, events blur into one another, and significance is flattened into spectacle. Beneath the comedy lies a precise moral vision: a society incapable of seriousness, drifting toward disorder without fully perceiving it.Cool, brittle, and exact, Vile Bodies remains one of the defining satirical novels of the twentieth century, capturing a world governed by appearances as it moves steadily toward exhaustion.
