Book Description
The first time I saw Anya I was shirtless and holding an axe. It was June, the weather balmy and Anya was beautiful, but that didn’t matter because I was drowning in my own grief. Anya wasn’t meant to be my saviour. I wasn’t meant to be hers. A perfect summer, an idyllic island, a stream of stolen nights. All bandaids on an open wound. If we were going to live again, she deserved more than the fractured shards of the broken creature I’d become. She deserved love.

Book Description
I looked and saw water rushing in from Galveston Bay on one side and from the gulf on the other. The two seas met in the middle of Broadway, swirling over the wooden paving blocks, and I couldn't help but shudder at the sight. All of Galveston appeared to be under water. Galveston, Texas, may be the booming city of the brand-new twentieth century, but to Seth, it is the end of a dream. He longs to be a carpenter like his father, but his family has moved to Galveston so he can go to a good school. Still, the last few weeks of summer might not be so bad. Seth has a real job as a builder and the beach is within walking distance. Things seem to be looking up, until a storm warning is raised one sweltering afternoon. No one could have imagined anything like this. Giant walls of water crash in from the sea. Shingles and bricks are deadly missiles flying through the air. People not hit by flying debris are swept away by rushing water. Forget the future, Seth and his family will be lucky to survive the next twenty-four hours. Dark Water Rising is a 2007 Bank Street - Best Children's Book of the Year.

Book Description
Edward Carpenters's Love's Coming of Age is one of the most famous works discussing love and marriage from a modern, enlightened point of view. The book was first published thirty years or so ago, in England, after being turned down by several London publishers before it finally found a market when Carpenter risked the publication of it himself. So immediate was the success of the work that it was rapidly translated into many European languages. The present edition of Love's Coming of Age is complete, including all the latest additions and changes made by the author. It will be found to be one of the most straightforward and at the same time delicate discussions of sexual problems that has ever been published. -- Foreword.
