Book Description
The inspiration for the TNT TV series I Am the Night. The Black Dahlia Murder is near-legend in the annals of true crime. But behind the shocking case of a young actress’s gruesome slaying lies the story of another woman. Was Fauna Hodel the child of incest, and the catalyst for a sensational trial that left her well-to-do family scarred by scandal, even as the accused sexual predator walked free? Taken as an infant from her teenage mother, Fauna was placed in the care of a working-class black woman, who raised the white child as her own. Together, as a close-knit mother and daughter, they weathered years of poverty and bigotry, alcoholism and sexual abuse, pregnancy and even death—until the time came for Fauna to seek out her real mother, and uncover her lost past. But as Fauna will learn, some truths don’t want to be told. Now includes an 8-page photo insert from Fauna's personal collection.

Book Description
A fascinating page-a-day collection profiling extraordinary women of all races, eras, and nationalities. Our past is full of influential women. Whether politicians, troublemakers, explorers, artists, and even the odd murderer, women have shaped society around the globe. But too often, these women have been unfairly confined to the margins of history. On This Day She: Putting Women Back into History One Day at a Time corrects this imbalance. A day-by-day collection of inspiring stories about incredible women who made history but seldom received the acknowledgement they deserved, this book introduces readers to women of all colors, eras, and nationalities. From Queen Elizabeth I to Beyoncé, Doria Shafik to Lillian Bilocca, this book gives voice both to female icons and to those whom the history books have overlooked. These women campaigned, cured, and adventured their way through life. They include musicians, painters, scientists, poets, and more. Spanning centuries, On This Day She is a record of human existence at its most authentic.

Book Description
One of NPR's Best Books of the Year A DEBUT COLLECTION OF FIERCE, FUNNY ESSAYS ABOUT GROWING UP THE DAUGHTER OF INDIAN IMMIGRANTS IN WESTERN CULTURE, ADDRESSING SEXISM, STEREOTYPES, AND THE UNIVERSAL MISERIES OF LIFE In One Day We’ll All Be Dead and None of This Will Matter, Scaachi Koul deploys her razor-sharp humor to share all the fears, outrages, and mortifying moments of her life. She learned from an early age what made her miserable, and for Scaachi anything can be cause for despair. Whether it’s a shopping trip gone awry; enduring awkward conversations with her bikini waxer; overcoming her fear of flying while vacationing halfway around the world; dealing with Internet trolls, or navigating the fears and anxieties of her parents. Alongside these personal stories are pointed observations about life as a woman of color: where every aspect of her appearance is open for critique, derision, or outright scorn; where strict gender rules bind in both Western and Indian cultures, leaving little room for a woman not solely focused on marriage and children to have a career (and a life) for herself. With a sharp eye and biting wit, incomparable rising star and cultural observer Scaachi Koul offers a hilarious, scathing, and honest look at modern life.

Book Description
The Day She Cut God Loose begins on Starside, a processing plant for all souls coming and going to Earth. When Sarah, the main character, is summoned to The Department of Planning, Melchizedek, the Godson, asks her to reincarnate for a mission in the service of humanity. Sarah goes, kicking and screaming, back to the planet she was glad to leave the last time around. After having her memory expunged, Sarah is born in England to parents who divorce when she is two years old. She then moves with her mother from man to man, marriage to marriage, and town to town. They are exposed to the ravages of alcoholism, domestic violence, abandonment, and the objectives of a foster mother who is addicted to attention and the hullabaloo that arises from the fact that she is as lost as the young girl, Sarah, she vowed to care for. At a very young age, Sarah realizes that all those living on planet Earth are very unhappy. The only hint she has that she might be different from those around her, is when her everyday mind changes form, and she fleetingly becomes aware of the underlying magnificence of the Godson’s plan. This mental seesawing gives rise to her contrary nature, which gets her into a lot of trouble. The Day She Cut God Loose is the story of Sarah. It is also story of you, and all those like you, existing (for now) within the cycle of rebirth and karma. This is the story of the human mind and what it is capable of. This is the story of planet Earth.
