Download or read book Super Bitches and Action Babes written by Rikke Schubart and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2014-08-23 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With actress Pam Grier's breakthrough in Coffy and Foxy Brown, women entered action, science fiction, war, westerns and martial arts films--genres that had previously been considered the domain of male protagonists. This ground-breaking cinema, however, was--and still is--viewed with ambivalence. While women were cast in new and exciting roles, they did not always arrive with their femininity intact, often functioning both as a sexualized spectacle and as a new female hero rather than female character. This volume contains an in-depth critical analysis and study of the female hero in popular film from 1970 to 2006. It examines five female archetypes: the dominatrix, the Amazon, the daughter, the mother and the rape-avenger. The entrance of the female hero into films written by, produced by and made for men is viewed through the lens of feminism and post-feminism arguments. Analyzed works include films with actors Michelle Yeoh and Meiko Kaji, the Alien films, the Lara Croft franchise, Charlie's Angels, and television productions such as Xena: Warrior Princess and Alias.

Download or read book Women s Health Lift to Get Lean written by Holly Perkins and published by Rodale. This book was released on 2015-04-14 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research shows that building muscle helps the body burn more calories 24/7 and that resistance training is the most effective way to torch body fat. Yet that message is still lost on many women who fear that weight lifting will make them bulky, turn their skin green, and give them Incredible Hulk muscles like their boyfriends'. Women have more options than step aerobics or running on a treadmill to shed pounds: They can weight-train in a very specific manner designed to make the most of a woman's unique physiology. Lift to Get Lean is the first beginner's guide to strength training from Women's Health that is written specifically for women by a woman. Holly Perkins is a certified strength and conditioning specialist (CSCS) who has been teaching the fat-burning secrets of weight training exclusively to women for more than 20 years. Perkins doesn't follow men’s rules when it comes to building muscle. Lift to Get Lean delivers a three-step system: Technique, Movement Speed, and the Last 2 Reps Rule, which make all the difference in developing the kind of strong, lean, and sexy body women want. Perkins offers four different 90-day training programs that efficiently build functional strength along with leaner legs, stronger arms, and a sexier butt.

I write stories about comic book author and short-tempered superheroine Holly Hansson, and her superpowered and often geeky friends. I like to put funny into my superhero stories. More laughs, less grim and gritty. Months ago, Holly Hansson's graphic novel, "The Last Super," was climbing the best seller list. Holly got her geek girl's dream: in her twenties, she was becoming a successful author where her lady protagonist was brave and smart and strong! But through a combination of DNA, radiation, a superpower extra-dimensional force, or other comic book type stuff, Holly Hansson also got superpowers, along with thousands of other comic book fanboys and fangirls. Holly is still adjusting to her new job as the most powerful super of her world. And to her super-bosom, which came with her superpowers. Holly does not like where paparazzi aim their telephoto lenses. Super Bad Hair Day! A battle-weary Super Holly shows up where the only man in the world can save her from the world's worst bad hair day: Lash the barber. Holly tells her old friend the story of how grit and grime and asphalt was ground into her long blonde hair. But Holly has a date with destiny in less than half an hour, can her barber Lash possibly free Holly's long blonde hair from the clutches of a tarry monster in time? The Poet and the Supersplainer! Super Holly fights a battle on two fronts! The evil Karate Queen is intent on stealing the prototype 5-D phone from the CEO of Apricot Computer! With that phony power, what evil will that villainess inflict upon the world? And upon Cal "The Intellectual" Critbert, Holly's grim, super-smart, heroic boyfriend, whom The Karate Queen is eyeing in a hungry way? Is Holly's super-strength and super-telekinesis a match for the Queen's super-karate and rhyming battle banter? Preview of The Comic Book Code!

Book excerpt: Samantha Turner was perfectly content being the computer guru/research nerd for HEARTS Investigative Services. After seeing what her teammates have gone through, she’d rather spend her time surfing the internet than chasing bad guys. However, when she pushes her boss too far and is fired, Sam has to find a job elsewhere. She lands at Estrada Investigations, where she earns a spot on the team like a real investigator. Soon, however, she realizes a case that Victor Estrada is researching hits a little too close to home. Holly Austin, Sam’s former boss, has been looking for the man that murdered her mother decades ago. Though HEARTS has made little progress, it seems like Victor is on the verge of a breakthrough. On her own for the first time and woefully unprepared, Sam has to protect herself, her partner, and find whoever is trying to stop them from uncovering answers buried long ago.

Book excerpt: When a fourteen-year-old runs away, her parents turn to social media to find her—launching a public campaign that will expose their darkest secrets and change their family forever, in this suspenseful and gripping debut for fans of Reconstructing Amelia and Gone Girl. Don’t try to find me. Though the message on the kitchen white board is written in Marley’s hand, her mother Rachel knows there has to be some other explanation. Marley would never run away. As the days pass and it sinks in that the impossible has occurred, Rachel and her husband Paul are informed that the police have “limited resources.” If they want their fourteen-year-old daughter back, they will have to find her themselves. Desperation becomes determination when Paul turns to Facebook and Twitter, and launches FindMarley.com. But Marley isn’t the only one with secrets. With public exposure comes scrutiny, and when Rachel blows a television interview, the dirty speculation begins. Now, the blogosphere is convinced Rachel is hiding something. It’s not what they think; Rachel would never hurt Marley. Not intentionally, anyway. But when it’s discovered that she’s lied, even to the police, the devoted mother becomes a suspect in Marley’s disappearance. Is Marley out there somewhere, watching it all happen, or is the truth something far worse?
