My life hasn’t been what you’d call easy lately… Last year I, Teddi Bayer Gallo, nearly killed my husband. This year he’s nearly my ex. Last year money grew on trees. This year if my three delicious children and I don’t eat, my new interior decorating business might survive. Last year I’d never seen a dead person up close. But this year I’ve just discovered one. And it’s my first paying client…. Can things get worse? Well, the police could suspect my partner, Bobbie, and me of doing the woman in. Then there’s my mother, June, who even through all her newly acquired plastic surgery can still give me “the look.” And I could fall for sexy detective Drew Scoones, who has fingered Bobbie as his prime suspect. I mean, really, can you say no to the police?

“What is it with you and murder victims?” When Drew Scoones asks the questions, Teddi Bayer listens. Her latest decorating job for a restaurant spoiled by a murder, Ms. Bayer might just have to submit to the detective’s line of interrogation. After all, her life depends on it. With a mafia don who’s a little too interested in our crazed housewife, it seems as if everyone’s got their eye on the Long Island spitfire. Observe the Botoxed mother who can still wound at thirty feet with just a look and a daughter whose bat mitzvah is a disaster in the making. If Teddi can’t save herself, then the dreamy detective slowly putting the screws to her is the next best thing. But she’s got questions of her own. Like, where are the handcuffs, anyway?

"A perfect guide to getting the non-essentials out of the way, so that simple joys can make their way into our lives." -- Marianne Williamson, author of A Return to Love "If you want to grow, you gotta let go," is the mantra that bestselling author, columnist, and life coach Gail Blanke lives by. That means eliminating all the clutter - physical and emotional - that holds you back, weighs you down, or just makes you feel bad about yourself. In Throw Out Fifty Things she takes us through each room of the house - from the attic to the garage - and even to the far reaches of our minds. Through poignant and humorous stories, she inspires us to get rid of the "life plaque" we've allowed to build-up there. That junk drawer (you know that drawer) in the kitchen? Empty it! Those old regrets? Throw 'em out! That make-up from your "old" look? Toss it! That relationship that depresses you? Dump it! Once you've hit fifty (you'll be surprised how easy it is to get there) and once you've thrown out that too-tight belt and too-small view of yourself, you'll be ready to step out into the clearing and into the next, and greatest, segment of your life.

Out of Chaos Comes Hope is a sci-fi fantasy novel about the somewhat buffoonish and former United League of Planets’ Captain, Robert Michael Calyx, his adventures and misadventures, not only upon prehistoric/futuristic Earth, but also on other planets scattered throughout various nearby and faraway galaxies, as well. This adventuresome story further goes on to describe how Robie, a now highly sought after and wanted fugitive by the United League of Planets and the Aurelian Empire, is transported back to Earth through time and space with the help of his alien cohorts and with the use of a Myrddissian Time and Space Continuum Device, some 800,000 years. Yes, onto the ancient and fabled continent of Atlantis, where he, Robie, with the assistance of the Atlantean high priests, the ruling class, and their greatly advanced and alien-provided technology, he is able to begin, once again, his extensive and sometimes fraught with danger, search for his missing father, Emrys Myrddin Calyx.

New York Times bestselling author Rainbow Rowell's epic fantasy, the Simon Snow trilogy, concludes with Any Way the Wind Blows. In Carry On, Simon Snow and his friends realized that everything they thought they understood about the world might be wrong. And in Wayward Son, they wondered whether everything they understood about themselves might be wrong. Now, Simon and Baz and Penelope and Agatha must decide how to move forward. For Simon, that means choosing whether he still wants to be part of the World of Mages — and if he doesn't, what does that mean for his relationship with Baz? Meanwhile Baz is bouncing between two family crises and not finding any time to talk to anyone about his newfound vampire knowledge. Penelope would love to help, but she's smuggled an American Normal into London, and now she isn't sure what to do with him. And Agatha? Well, Agatha Wellbelove has had enough. Any Way the Wind Blows takes the gang back to England, back to Watford, and back to their families for their longest and most emotionally wrenching adventure yet. This book is a finale. It tells secrets and answers questions and lays ghosts to rest. The Simon Snow Trilogy was conceived as a book about Chosen One stories; Any Way the Wind Blows is an ending about endings—about catharsis and closure, and how we choose to move on from the traumas and triumphs that try to define us.
