In this comprehensive look into The Overnight Guest: A Novel by Heather Gudenkauf, you'll gain insight with this essential resource as a guide to aid your discussions. 

The Overnight Guest is Heather Gudenkauf’s most recent and 8th novel. It follows the story of Wylie Lark, a true-crime writer, who rented a secluded farmhouse so she could focus on writing her latest project. At the same house decades before, a family was murdered, and a girl went missing. 
    
    The novel is propelled by three central plots: the present, where Wylie found an unconscious boy outside the house amid a snowstorm; the past set in August 2000, where Josie’s family were murdered in the same home Wylie was staying, and her friend, Becky, went missing; and the last one was narrated by a third person who tells the story of a child with her mother and abusive father. Readers should brace themselves as they delve deeper to find out how the three timelines are intertwined.

    “The Chimp Paradox” by Dr. Steve Peters explores the inner workings of the human mind using the concept of three distinct parts: the Human, the Chimp, and the Computer. The Human represents rational thinking, the Chimp embodies emotions and instincts, while the Computer stores learned behaviors. Through this model, Dr. Peters illustrates how our internal conflicts between these parts influence decision-making, behavior, and relationships. The book offers practical techniques for managing emotions, improving self-awareness, and achieving personal success and happiness, providing valuable insights for anyone seeking to better understand their mind and navigate life's challenges.

    Infectious disease is a moving target: new diseases emerge every year, old diseases evolve into new forms, and ecological and socioeconomic upheavals change the transmission pathways that spread disease. But where does disease come from? How is it transmitted from one person to another? And why are some individuals more susceptible than others? 
     
     
     
    In this Very Short Introduction, Marta Wayne and Benjamin Bolker address these questions through the lenses of ecology and evolution. Assessing the management of outbreaks of diseases such as influenza, HIV/AIDS, cholera, and COVID-19, they provide specific examples to illustrate why major diseases still threaten populations all over the world.

    THIS EXPLOSIVE INVESTIGATION REVEALS THE PROFOUND FAILURES OF THE TITLE IX SYSTEM AND IDENTIFIES THE STEPS WE CAN TAKE TO PROTECT STUDENTS 
     
    On the Wrong Side provides the first comprehensive account of the inner workings of the secretive Title IX system. Drawing on a yearlong study of survivors, perpetrators, and the administrators who oversaw their cases, sociologist Nicole Bedera exposes the structures that predictably punish survivors who come forward in the service of protecting—or even rewarding—their perpetrators. She reveals that the system tasked with ending gender inequality on campus only intensifies it, upending survivors’ lives and threatening their degrees. 
     
    Equally heartbreaking and optimistic, On the Wrong Side makes it easy to imagine life-changing interventions for the next generation of students by proposing specific solutions to the structural problems of Title IX. Bedera proves that ending campus sexual violence is within our grasp—and dares us to be courageous enough to take action. 
     
    “Nicole Bedera is one of the most important thinkers of our time about sexual violence on campus. I am grateful for her work.”—Peggy Orenstein, New York Times–bestselling author of Boys & Sex: Young Men on Hookups, Love, Porn, Consent, and Navigating the New Masculinity
