Book Description
Stubborn Debra Sue is an inspirational story that is based on true events about a little girl who never gave up. It tells about a little girl who becomes handicapped after being afflicted with polio and how she overcomes the many obstacles that she is faced with in her young life. It tells of her determination to run and play with other children her age despite her handicap, how students knocked her down while trying to pass her because she was too slow, and how she would fall down, get up, and fall down again. But stubborn Debra Sue refused to stay down. Debra Sue refused to be bullied, and she refused to let her older brother from being bullied. Even though she was handicap, she was her brother’s protector. It tells the agony that Debra Sue endured with the many operations that she incurred because of her polio. Some of the surgeries were successful while others failed. She always kept a positive attitude. It tells how she masked her pain and suffering so that people would not feel sorry for her. It tells about her love for all animals and how she took in all strays that came her way despite her mother’s disapproval. It tells about her friendships and the pain and agony she felt when her best friend betrayed her. When Debra Sue wanted to do something, she would refuse to let her handicap stop her from doing it. She would study the situation, and then she would figure out a way to do it. Stubborn Debra Sue gave true meaning to the phrase “Where there is a will, there is a way.”

Book Description
This title was first published in 2003. In this study, the author examines the behavior of one group of court-appointed defence attorneys and reaches the conclusion that although, in contrast to popular opinion, these attorneys maintain an adversarial stance against the prosecutors and behave in a legally ethical (or "procedurally just") manner, case outcomes are unduly shaped by social class and are therefore substantively unjust. This occurs because poor defendants typically lack cultural rhetoric that favourably influences those who construct and operate the criminal court system. Ironically, this indicates that, in many cases, the process of plea bargaining may be more substantively just than trials. A major contribution of the study is the detailed analysis of the manner by which oppression and substantive injustice occur in the adjudication of many cases and how the cultural practices of the powerful can frequently misconstrue, exclude and mute the voices of the poor.

Book Description
Secrets... They weigh you down. I've kept a secret all my life. It's my mother's secret, too. I inherited it from her along with a unique ability that only we possess. She's gone now, another victim of addiction. If her death isn't enough to bring me to my knees, her betrayal flays me to the bone. Because the secret my mother and I have been keeping is just one of many she'd kept. She never told me I have an older brother. And now he's here, eager to be my guardian. There is no one else. So I move across the country to live with this stranger, my brother. But experience has taught me that most situations are temporary and forming attachments only leads to hurt in the end. That's why I'm determined to keep to myself in this new place, struggling to seem aloof while I'm quietly breaking apart. Then I meet Lucas... His magnetism is hard to resist, and most girls at school aren't resisting. I don't fall so easily though, especially not for guys who use their good looks as a weapon. From the start, our interactions are tense and volatile. I know it's because I'm denying the unwelcome desire that grips me when he's near. I think he feels it, too. He looks at me with an intensity that threatens to unhinge my resolve. Soon he's trying to break through the walls that past hurts have built. But I'm not what I appear to be, and it wouldn't be fair to get involved with him. At least that's what I tell myself. Until a terrible act of violence reveals that Lucas has a secret, too. It's a secret that links us together and ties us to an evil history I never could have imagined.

Book Description
#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • LOOK FOR THE NETFLIX ORIGINAL DOCUMENTARY SERIES • “Both an American tragedy and [Grisham’s] strongest legal thriller yet, all the more gripping because it happens to be true.”—Entertainment Weekly John Grisham’s first work of nonfiction: a true crime masterpiece that tells the story of small town justice gone terribly awry. In the Major League draft of 1971, the first player chosen from the state of Oklahoma was Ron Williamson. When he signed with the Oakland A’s, he said goodbye to his hometown of Ada and left to pursue his dreams of big league glory. Six years later he was back, his dreams broken by a bad arm and bad habits. He began to show signs of mental illness. Unable to keep a job, he moved in with his mother and slept twenty hours a day on her sofa. In 1982, a twenty-one-year-old cocktail waitress in Ada named Debra Sue Carter was raped and murdered, and for five years the police could not solve the crime. For reasons that were never clear, they suspected Ron Williamson and his friend Dennis Fritz. The two were finally arrested in 1987 and charged with capital murder. With no physical evidence, the prosecution’s case was built on junk science and the testimony of jailhouse snitches and convicts. Dennis Fritz was found guilty and given a life sentence. Ron Williamson was sent to death row. If you believe that in America you are innocent until proven guilty, this book will shock you. If you believe in the death penalty, this book will disturb you. If you believe the criminal justice system is fair, this book will infuriate you. Don’t miss Framed, John Grisham’s first work of nonfiction since The Innocent Man, co-authored with Centurion Ministries founder Jim McCloskey.

Book Description
In 1758, when Mary Jemison is about sixteen, a Shawnee raiding party captures her Irish family near Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. Mary is the only one not killed and scalped. She is instead given to two Seneca sisters to replace their brother who was killed by whites. Emerging slowly from shock, Mary--now named Two-Falling-Voices--begins to make her home in Seneca culture and the wild landscape. She goes on to marry a Delaware, then a Seneca, and, though she contemplates it several times, never rejoins white society. Larsen alludes beautifully to the way Mary apprehends the brutality of both the white colonists and the native tribes; and how, open-eyed and independent, she thrives as a genuine American.
