Title: Beyond Self-Care Potato Chips: Choosing Nourishing Self-Care in a Quick-Fix Culture
Author: Amber Wardell PhD
Narrator: Amber Wardell PhD
Format: Unabridged
Length: 09:15:00
Language: English
Release date: 10-29-24
Publisher: Recorded Books
Genres: Self Development, Health & Wellness
Summary:
From a cognitive psychologist, a trusted voice among millennial women, a call to action for readers everywhere to enter their true self-care era that will nourish and sustain them.
Toxic self-care culture tells women that bubble baths and Botox are the route to happiness and fulfillment. Though these types of self-care can fill us up in the moment, they cannot provide long-lasting nourishment. They are empty caloriesthe potato chips of self-care.
And from them, we can never get full. In the same way, we will not feel fulfilled by reaching for the empty calorie self-care trends that toxic, materialistic self-care culture sells us. To fill our exhausted bodies and weary minds, to live fully and authentically, we need the kind of self-care that nourishes.
Beyond Self-Care Potato Chips is a call to action for women everywhere to reach instead for nourishing self-care. Though this may sound easy in theory, many women struggle to carry it out. We struggle because we have forgotten how to reach. Our training as little girls taught us that it is polite to be grateful for what we get. To say thank you but I'm full when offered second helpings. To accept the potato chips we are given because there are people on this planet who have none, so how dare we ask for more?
Through the narrative voice of a psychologist who is also an exhausted millennial mom trying to keep it all together, Beyond Self-Care Potato Chips explores courageous self-care in the areas of marriage, motherhood, family dynamics, friendships, career life, and mental health. The author's personal stories range from the hilariously-yet-painfully relatable to the resonantly heart-rending. Each of these storiesthe beautiful, the sparkling, the sad and the chaoticteach women something about what it means to reach. What it means to stop settling for potato chips and to instead grasp for the things that truly fulfill. Beyond Self-Care Potato Chips is a mindseta way of embracing and stepping into all of our divine, feminine power.

The Cookbook Nook is set to host the town's upcoming Grill Fest, a tasty tradition which pits local amateur
chefs against one another to concoct the most delicious dishes. This year's challenge: grilled cheese. But with
competing chefs bearing grudges from past years, more mouths are running off than savoring the fare.

behind the cafe. Soon a local diner owner (and Jenna's 'second mother') is suspected of bumping off the
competition, and Jenna has to douse the flames before the wrong person gets burned...

Title: Embody: Feel, Heal, and Transform Your Life Through Movement
Author: Toni Bergins
Narrator: Toni Bergins
Format: Unabridged
Length: 09:15:00
Language: English
Release date: 10-29-24
Publisher: Recorded Books
Genres: Non-Fiction, Self Development, Health & Wellness, Psychology
Summary:
A new paradigm for embodied healing in a unique, experiential, therapeutic process in which expressive movement, guided imagery, ritual, music, and creative expression work together.
In Embody, Toni Bergins, the founder and creator of JourneyDance, an internationally renowned dance movement program, shares with readers a powerful way to address trauma mindfully so people can confront it, heal, and grow to love themselves unconditionally, just as they are. Embody is a dynamic, conscious practice that can help people release what no longer serves them and shows them how to stop stuffing/numbing the pain and start feeling, stop over-thinking/limiting, and get moving!
Embodiment is the new buzzword in personal transformation, but, most often, it is connected to static practices like breathwork and meditation. For Toni Bergins, embodiment is best achieved through active movement, and has created a practice where people literally get out of their heads and into their bodies! Her program is a trauma-informed one that offers a new promise: leading readers through deep, personal work but making it feel like play. In this book, she turns the heaviness of processing pain and past trauma into an expressive art aligned with the most recent research. Specifically, trauma expert Bessel van der Kolk, writes in his bestselling The Body Keeps the Score, In order to overcome trauma, people need to feel safe enough to open up their hearts and minds to others and become engaged with new possibilities. This can be done if trauma survivors are helped to confront and confess the reality of what has happened and are helped to feel safe again. In many cultures this involves communal rhythmical activities, such as dancing And that is Toni Bergins mission and method: to help readers move into a new story for their lives.
Embody features Tonis prescription for a comprehensive healing journey, comprised of five core elements:
Music, to open the doorways of impulse, imagination, creativity and healing to change mood and awareness;
Movement, to enhance presence and confidence, and release old patterns and traumas;
Mystical Inquiry, where imagery and creative visualization exercises are used to guide readers into an alchemic and shamanic state to investigate past hurts, and learn to trust their instincts;
Prayers and Invocations, to raise energetic vibrations to a positive place with powerful affirmations; and
Journaling, with writing prompts to process inner self-awareness learned on the dance floor or through any of the other Embody elements.

Narrator: Cassandra Campbell
Format: Unabridged
Length: 16:33:05
Language: English
Release date: 05-14-24
Publisher: Recorded Books
Genres: Fiction & Literature, Literary Fiction
Summary:
An immersive, masterful story of a family born on the wrong side of history, from one of our finest contemporary novelists.
Over seven decades, from 1940 to 2010, the pieds-noirs Cassars live in an itinerant stateseparated in the chaos of World War II, running from a complicated colonial homeland, and, after Algerian independence, without a homeland at all. This Strange Eventful History, told with historical sweep, is above all a family story: of patriarch Gaston and his wife Lucienne, whose myth of perfect love sustains them and stifles their children; of François and Denise, devoted siblings connected by their familys strangeness; of Françoiss union with Barbara, a woman so culturally different they can barely comprehend one another; of Chloe, the result of that union, who believes that telling these buried stories will bring them all peace.
Inspired in part by long-ago stories from her own familys history, Claire Messud animates her characters rich interior lives amid the social and political upheaval of the recent past. As profoundly intimate as it is expansive, This Strange Eventful History is a tour de force one of those rare novels that a reader doesnt merely read but lives through with the characters (Yiyun Li).
A choral mural of sweep and scope that knows just when to render the historical personal, Claire Messuds epic is above all a wise, wary, yet love-struck chronicle of how the selves we strive to make become colonized by family.Joshua Cohen, author of the Pulitzer Prizewinning The Netanyahus

Language: English
Release date: 04-02-24
Publisher: Simon & Schuster
Genres: Fiction & Literature, Historical Fiction, Historical Romance, Contemporary Women
Summary:
From USA TODAY and internationally bestselling author Genevieve Graham comes a gripping World War II novel about two sisters who join the war effort—one as a codebreaker and the other as a pilot—and the secrets that threaten to tear them apart. Perfect for fans of The Rose Code and The Nightingale.
Twin sisters Dot and Dash Wilson share many things, and while they are practically inseparable, they are nothing alike. Dot is fascinated by books, puzzles, and Morse code, a language taught to both girls by their father, a WWI veteran. Dash’s days are filled with fixing engines, dancing with friends, and dreaming of flying airplanes. Almost always at their side is their best friend Gus—until war breaks out and he enlists in the army, deploying to an unknown front.
Determined to do their duty, both girls join the WRENS, Dash as a mechanic and Dot as a typist. Before long, Dot’s fixation on patterns and numbers takes her from HMCS Coverdale, a covert listening and codebreaking station working with Bletchley Park in England, to Camp X, a top-secret spy school. But when personal tragedy strikes the family, Dot’s oath of secrecy causes a rift between the sisters.
Eager to leave her pain behind, Dash jumps at the opportunity to train as a pilot with the Air Transport Auxiliary, where she risks her life to ferry aircraft and troops across the battlefields of Europe. Meanwhile Dot is drawn into the Allies’ preparations for D-Day. But Dot’s loyalties are put to the test once more when someone close to her goes missing in Nazi-occupied territory. With everyone’s eyes on Operation Overlord, Dot must use every skill at her disposal to save those she loves before it’s too late.
Inspired by the real-life stories of women in World War II, The Secret Keeper is an extraordinary novel about the unbreakable bonds of sisterhood and the light of courage during the darkest of nights.

Title: Harlan Ellison's Watching: Essays and Criticism
Author: Harlan Ellison
Narrator: Luis Moreno
Format: Unabridged
Length: 20:43:46
Language: English
Release date: 03-26-24
Publisher: Recorded Books
Genres: Fiction & Literature, Essays & Anthologies
Summary:
An enjoyable, irascible collection of smart and sometimes-scathing film criticism from a famously candid author (Library Journal).
Everyones a critic, especially in the digital agebut no one takes on the movies like multiple award-winning author Harlan Ellison. Renowned both for fiction (A Boy and His Dog) and pop-culture commentary (The Glass Teat), Ellison offers in this collection twenty-five years worth of essays and film criticism.
Its pure, raw, unapologetic opinion. Star Wars? Luke Skywalker is a nerd and Darth Vader sucks runny eggs. Big Trouble in Little China? A cheerfully blathering live-action cartoon that will give you release from the real pressures of your basically dreary lives. Despite working within the industry himself, Ellison never learned how to lie. So punches go unpulled, the impersonal becomes personal, and sometimes even the critics get critiqued, as he shares his views on Pauline Kael or Siskel and Ebert. Ultimately, its a wild journey through the cinematic landscape, touching on everything from Fellini to the Friday the 13th franchise.

A sweeping epic fantasy weaves together destiny and ancient magic in this masterful final novel in the beloved Five Warrior Angels trilogy by Brian Lee Durfee

war are unraveling, revealing a hidden agenda while the world lies in the wake of the degradations of this war.
But a slim skein of hope resides within the hidden truths, long kept secret and scattered throughout the islestruths less reliant upon prophecy than heroism and great sacrifice.
Not everything is as it seems in this epic, long-awaited conclusion to a trilogy that Booklist raved about as high fantasy in the vein of Stephen R. Donaldson or David Eddings, with generous helpings from George R. R. Martin.

Format: Unabridged
Length: 13:56:21
Language: English
Release date: 12-12-23
Publisher: Recorded Books
Genres: Non-Fiction, Science & Technology, Biology & Chemistry, Social Science
Summary:
The idea that gender is a performancea tenet of queer feminist theory since the 1990shas spread from college classrooms to popular culture. In Performance All the Way Down, MacArthur Fellow and Pulitzer Prize finalist Richard O. Prum brings gender performativity into conversation with genetics, development, and evolutionary biology, arguing that the sexual binary is not essential to human genes, chromosomes, or embryos. Our genomes are not blueprints, algorithms, or recipes for the physical representation of our personal sexual essences or fates. In accessible language, Prum shows that gene expression is a material action in the world, a performance through which individuals regulate and achieve their own becoming. Human development is a performative continuum from a fertilized egg to a complex adult with tissues and organs, neurological control, immune defenses, psychological mechanisms, gender, and sexual behavior. This complex hierarchy of self-enactment reflects the evolved agency of distinct genes, molecules, cells, and tissues. Sure to inspire a conversation, Performance All the Way Down is a book about biology for feminists, a book about feminist theory for biologists, and a book for anyone curious about how our sexual bodies grow.

Language: English

Publisher: Recorded Books
Genres: Cooking, Non-Fiction, Science & Technology, Animals & Nature, Social Science
Summary:
The world can't sustain the way we eat today. Whether its ultra-processed oils, factoryfarmed meat, or monoculture wheat, industrial agriculture has increasingly dire consequences for the vibrancy of our plates, health, and planet. While some look to high tech solutions, like
lab-grown meat or transgenic produce, Taras Grescoe argues that the future of our food lies in the diversity of the past.
In The Lost Supper, Grescoe searches for the fascinating flavors, many forgotten or on the verge of extinction, that tell the stories of civilizations: Aztec caviar from a vanishing lake in Mexico; garum, the secret umami ingredient of Ancient Roman cuisine; acorn-fed feral pigs on one
of Georgias barrier islands; and camas, a staple of Northwest Coast Indigenous Peoples. He chronicles a growing movement of archaeologists, farmers, and food producers who are unearthing and reviving the nourishing, delicious, and sustainable foods of the pastfrom Neolithic
sourdough and farmhouse cheese to wild olives and long-thought extinct plantsalong with chefs and enthusiasts who are bringing history alive in their own kitchens.
A deep dive into the archaeology of taste and an impassioned manifesto for the future of food, The Lost Supper sets out a provocative case: in order to save ourselves, we need to thinkand eatmuch more like our ancestors did.
