Book Description
LARGE PRINT Who would have known falling in love could be so dangerous? On the run from the demons in her past, Eva ends up in Twisted City, sharing an apartment with her best friend, Alice. Desperate for money, she applies for a job singing at a local nightclub. When she meets the owner, Angelo, there's no denying the pull she feels towards him, despite his reputation as a ladies' man. But Angelo has a secret of his own: his real job is as a capo for one of the city's most notorious mob bosses. It seems that he's just as dangerous as the people she's running from, but is he really? Or is he capable of being the protector Eva so desperately needs? Can she trust him with her life, and more importantly, with her heart? Trigger Warning Though Twisted City is a romance novel, it does come with some pretty deep messages that involve child abuse and sexual abuse. What happened to Eva is horrific and happens to many others, in many different forms. Not just strangers, but in marriages, families, and by those who claim to love us. The purpose of this story is to show there is light at the end of the tunnel. Even after the most degrading, humiliating, tortuous acts one human being can inflict on another, joy and love can prevail. My hope is to let victims know they are strong, they are beautiful, and they are most certainly not alone. Don't be afraid to reach out and talk to others. There are many support groups to help you through this. If you are triggered by stories about child abuse or sexual abuse, this book probably isn't for you. It is graphic in nature (not just the attack) but it is needed to get the message across.

Book Description
The Robot Wars are just beginning . . .On a world of intelligent robots who seem to have forgotten their own distant past, it is a time of war as the soldiers of Artemis City set out to conquer everything within range on the continent of Shull, killing or converting every robot they capture to their philosophy, while viewing their own wire-based minds as nothing but metal to be used or recycled for the cause. Elsewhere, the more individualistic robots of Turing City believe they are something more than metal, but when the Artemisian robot Kavan sets out on a determined crusade to prove himself, even Turing City can't stand against him. Increasingly tied up with Kavan's destiny is Karel, a Turing robot with elements of Artemis's philosophy already woven into his mind ... as well as Karel's wife Susan, and their recently created child.. Following the inevitable violence and destruction, Artemisian ambition focuses elsewhere and a journey begins towards the frozen kingdoms of the north ... and towards the truth about the legendary 'Book of Robots', a text which may finally explain the real history of this strange world ... In a completely alien but brilliantly realized landscape, here is a powerful story of superb action, barbaric cruelty and intense emotional impact.

Book Description
The fashion label Junky Styling grew out the authors' passion for transforming secondhand clothing into innovative fashion statements that showcase the wearer's individual style and flair. In this book, Annika Sanders and Kerry Seager record the origins of the company, from the clothes being worn by the authors in London clubs in the nineties to a small retail shop to a successful fashion label. This beautifully illustrated book also shows readers how they can perform "wardrobe surgery" by deconstructing, recutting, and completely transforming their discarded clothes and fabrics into inspired designs. Whether you are a fashion student, home sewer, entrepreneur, environmentalist, or serious fashionista, Junky Styling is both a practical resource and a thought-provoking inspiration that will guide you through a completely new way of looking at the relationship between clothes, resources, and style.

Book Description
Establishing an interdisciplinary connection between Migration Studies, Post-Colonial Studies and Affect Theory, Méndez analyzes the symbolic interplay between emotions, cognitions, and displacement in the narratives written by and about Dominican and Dominican-Americans in the United States and Puerto Rico. He argues that given the historic place of creolization as a marker of national, cultural, and social development in the Caribbean and particularly the Dominican Republic, this cultural process is not magically annulled in Caribbean immigrations to the U.S. Instead, this book illustrates the numerous ways in which Dominicans’ subjective interpretation of their experiences of migration and incorporation into U.S. society, seen through the filter of multiple creolizations of the past, are woven into their written works as a series of variations on Americanness and Dominicanness. Through close readings of selected writings by Pedro Henríquez Ureña, José Luis González, Junot Díaz, Josefina Báez, Loida Maritza Pérez among others, Méndez argues that emotional creolizations operate as a psychological parameter on immigrant populations as they negotiate their transcultural status against the ideological norms of assimilation in their new host country. Consequently, he proposes that this emotional creolization is dialectical — that is, it not only affects diasporic populations, but also changes the norms and terms of assimilation as well.
