Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1936 to 1936 Polly Pierce was an eleven-year-old New Jersey school girl leaving the security of her grandfather’s home in Pennsylvania to travel east with her parents. Initially her problems were that of your average seventh grader; adjusting to a new private all-girls school, where she was placed ahead a grade. Polly worried over her studies, friendships, class and racial distinctions. Then like the present day, 1930s Europe cast a long shadow and Polly found herself in the middle of a life-threatening crime where she alone must save a friend and report the truth. Her parents drank, had parties unaware of the treachery right under their noses. Polly was under extraordinary circumstances in a world controlled by adults. In order to do right she lied, stole and snuck around. In the end her bravery went unrewarded, an adult authority figure co-opted it. Set in the early ‘80s, the second story, Rogo the Magnificent, is about a bloodhound who brings people safely home and Isabella a young autistic girl who manages life with the help of ghosts. At first the ghosts appear as figments of her imagination, later they’re sinister. Meanwhile Rogo continues to-do good and Isabella, needing someone safe to love attaches herself to him.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Years ago, Laurie escaped the troubled house where she was raised. Now she is returning, with her husband and ten-year-old daughter, to claim the estate. But even though her father exorcised his demons in a final act of desperation, the past refuses to die. Laurie can feel it lurking in the broken moldings and empty picture frames. She even hears it laughing in the moldy greenhouse deep in the woods . . . At first, Laurie thinks she's imagining things. But when she meets her daughter's new playmate, she notices her uncanny resemblance to another little girl who used to live next door-and died next door. As Laurie's uneasiness grows stronger, her thoughts get more disturbing. Is she slowly losing her mind like her father did? Or is something truly unspeakable happening?

Book excerpt: It’s been a thousand years since the Pact was forged with the blood of heroes, uniting the five tribes and pushing the shadows back into the darkness. Since that time, peace has reigned in former Eventide. But now, dark shadows working behind the scenes for centuries have corrupted the once-pure High Magus Council, the overseers of the Pact and enforcers of its laws, twisting the justice it once stood for into a gross parody of greed and control. But an ancient, secret prophecy speaks of a lost people. People ignorant to the ways of magick and steel, but masters of a new kind of magick. The magick of crafts and machines, of information and tecknowledge. It is said they will emerge from a halo of dark light and bring with them a city of wonders. Life tends to slow to a crawl in Dunsmith, British Columbia. The small Vancouver Island town is nothing more than a crossroads. But when a strange event occurs and leaves the entire town stranded knee-deep in the Disputed Lands, they find they must band together as they face trials they were unprepared for. Invading armies, magick, elementals and even the local economy have to be taken into consideration. But how well can a small town of eight thousand hold back the furies of the Pactlands?

Download or read book Blueprints for Building Better Girls written by Elissa Schappell and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2012-07-10 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Elissa Schappell, “a diva of the encapsulating phrase, capable of conveying a Pandora’s box of feeling in a single line” (The New York Times Book Review) delivers eight provocative, darkly funny linked stories that map America’s shifting cultural landscape from the late 1970s to the present day. Blueprints for Building Better Girls delves into the lives of an eclectic cast of archetypal female characters—from the high school slut to the good girl, the struggling artist to the college party girl, the wife who yearns for a child to the reluctant mother—mapping America’s shifting cultural landscape from the late 1970s to the present day. Its interconnected stories explore the commonly shared but rarely spoken of experiences that build girls into women and women into wives and mothers. In revealing all their vulnerabilities and twisting our preconceived notions of who they are, Elissa Schappell alters how we think about the nature of female identity and how it evolves.
