Synopsis

In "The Motor Girls in the Mountains; or, The Gypsy Girl's Secret," Margaret Penrose transports readers into a thrilling adventure that intertwines youth, exploration, and the allure of the unknown. Set against the breathtaking backdrop of the mountains, the narrative follows a group of motor enthusiasts who embark on a journey marked by suspense and camaraderie. Penrose's literary style is characterized by vivid imagery and accessible prose, making the characters' trials and triumphs relatable while also engaging with themes of friendship, identity, and self-discovery. This book is situated within the early 20th-century tradition of girls' adventure literature, reflecting burgeoning feminist ideals and the expanding roles of women in society. Margaret Penrose, a pseudonym used by the prolific author and journalist Mary C. F. Smith, wrote primarily for young adults, inspired by her own experiences and societal changes of her time. Her writings often mirror the growing independence of women and the liberation offered by the automobile, emphasizing both the thrill of exploration and the importance of female agency. This work captures the zeitgeist of adventure literature, resonating with young readers eager for escapism and empowerment. I highly recommend "The Motor Girls in the Mountains" for its captivating plot and rich character development. Suitable for both young adults and those young at heart, Penrose'Äôs tale is an enduring invitation to embrace adventure while exploring the complexities of friendship and self-worth. Each page invites a sense of nostalgia for a simpler time, while simultaneously revealing the timeless struggle for autonomy and belonging.

    It’s shaping up to be a rotten summer for 10-year-old Rusty, a sailing buff who lives on an island off the New England coast. He’s just flunked math and has to go to summer school. His older sister is bossier than ever. Worst of all, his mom is far away on the mainland—undergoing treatment for her sudden, confusing, and exhausting “sadness”—while his dad struggles to keep the household together. Rusty’s only refuge is in caring for and teaching himself to sail a small, beloved sailboat.  
    While working on his boat at the village dock one evening, Rusty meets Hazel, a feisty old lady in a wheelchair. Hazel, a local artist from an old sailing family, asks—no, demands—that Rusty take her sailing. He refuses. She argues. And an unlikely friendship begins.  
    Hazel hires Rusty to help her with household tasks on summer afternoons. Between cleaning, painting, and cutting weeds, Rusty bonds with Hazel over shared lunches, watermelon seed spitting, and their mutual love of sailing. When Rusty does eventually take Hazel sailing, they come to better know and feel what connects them, even as her life nears its end and his is just beginning.  Into the Wind is a poignant story about loss and love in a boy’s life, and the surprising and sustaining bonds that can grow between the old and young.

    Spotify has changed the way we listen to and share music in a dynamic, profound and irreversible way. Fans across the world can access songs, albums and entire back catalogs at the click of a button, and the artists behind the music get paid for every one of those streams. 
    Isn’t that incredible? Music labels are no longer a necessity. The power is in the creators’ hands more than ever before. 
    But it isn’t just a case of releasing a song onto Spotify and hoping for the best. With over 60,000 new songs being uploaded to Spotify each day, the main question for the contemporary musician is now this: 
    How do you get your music heard in such a crowded marketplace?  
    Enter Chris Greenwood, a.k.a. the award-winning Canadian rock artist Manafest. 
    With a million monthly Spotify listeners and 130 million streams, Chris knows how to harness the power of this incredible music sharing platform. He understands how to trigger the algorithm, how to pitch and get added to editorial playlists, and how to co-create with other artists to enhance your profile and your reach. He’s a virtuoso of marketing and promotion, and his Waterfall Release Strategy (shared in detail in the book) has been one of the keys to his own phenomenal success on Spotify. 
    But mostly, Chris knows how to reach people. And in this era, if you want to be both a financially lucrative andcreatively fulfilled musician, you need to build a fanbase and keep it growing. That’s how you get streams, and that’s how you make a profit on Spotify. 
    This book is the result of over a decade of careful research, thoughtful experimentation, and ultimately the mastering of Spotify. 
    Chris’ career has grown in tandem with rise of Spotify, and there is no better, more inspiring, or more direct guide for your journey into the new singles economy than this.
