Sari Järnin tarina hoikasta neidosta tanakaksi tädiksi. Kirja on suorasukainen ja omakohtainen puheenvuoro lihavuuskeskusteluun. Kevättalvella 2011 tanakasta tädistä ei enää tuntunut siltä, että lihavat ovat leppoisia. Henkeä ahdisti, kävellessä piti pysähtyä huilaamaan vähän väliä ja monet pienet vaivat saivat juoksemaan lääkärissä. Kun kainalossa oleva kiusallinen pahkura ilmeni rasvaksi, istui lääkärin vastaanotolla vakava nainen. Nyt riitti. Vuosikausien jojoilun päättäminen lihavuusleikkauksella tuntui ainoalta ja parhaalta vaihtoehdolta. Huhtikuusta 2011 alkoi matka kohti uutta elämää. Lokakuussa 2011 sairaalasta tuli kirje: potilas on asetettu jonoon. El...

In Broken Latin explores in a series of deft, witty, sexy, and soulful poems the misunderstood, idealized, and marginalized life of a modern Roman Catholic nun. In these poems, set in the patriarchal institution of the convent, Annette Spaulding-Convy comments on the American woman's struggle for spiritual identity in contemporary culture through the voice of an ex-nun now mother/wife creating a life for herself in the world, while searching for an ethical, spiritual meaning not dependent upon traditional religious dogma.
Salvaging from historic buildings isn’t supposed to require reporting a murder. When salvage expert and historian Paisley Sutton crawls into an abandoned store with a house attached, she certainly isn’t expecting to find a body on site. But soon, her discovery sends Paisley on an expedition through history that links this murder to the one that led the previous owners to abandon the building in the first place. And someone doesn’t want her to salvage this story from the wreckage. Can Paisley preserve herself and her young son while also uncovering the stories that matter most?
Three old buildings. Three dead bodies. Solving murders was not what single mother Paisley Sutton had in mind when she started her architectural salvage business, but it certainly has become part and parcel of her work. Whether she's claiming vintage soda cases from an old gas station's coolers, finding bones beneath the floor of an old house, or discovering a body in a warehouse that's slated for demolition, Paisley and her friends are never short on mystery.
