Separated by darkness, bound by love.
For Brielle, survival isn’t just a fight—it’s a promise she’s made to
herself, to find her way back to Lincoln. Taken by the prince of
darkness, Brielle faces an existence in the depths of his dominion that
is meant to crush all hope. But hope is the one thing she refuses to
lose. With every grueling day, she discovers new strength and finds an
unlikely ally who reminds her that surrender isn’t an option.
Meanwhile, Lincoln fights his own battle, haunted by the loss of
Brielle and the possibility that she may never return. Yet, in the face
of despair, he clings to the hope of a reunion, knowing that their love
is the only light in the darkness closing in on them both.
Will they find a way to reunite against impossible odds, or has the
darkness claimed them forever?
Constructing the Holocaust examines the development of Holocaust
historiography in the light of recent critical philosophy of
history. It argues that the Holocaust provides both the occasion
for, and the ultimate test of, new ways of giving meaning to the
past. It also shows that examining our representations of the past
is as important as archival research for understanding history.
In the 1840s, land west of the Missouri River was a new frontier
for courage, adventure, freedom and true grit. During this era and
the decades that followed, Utah became the focal point for many
brave settlers yearning for a new way of life. While Utah's proud
Mormon legacy is well documented, there are lesser-known stories
that contribute to the state's fascinating history. Join public
historian, author and history columnist Eileen Hallet Stone for a
look into the state's forgotten past as she presents a revelatory
collection of tales culled from her popular "Salt Lake Tribune"
"Living History" column. From newly freed slaves, early
suffragists, desert farmers and union men to railroad kings, cattle
barons, influential statesmen and more, this is "Hidden History of
Utah."

In this delightfully charming and
heartfelt debut love story, two lonely and wildly different strangers
embark on a short-term friendship over one London summer—only to
discover they may be something more by the time the season ends.
No one would ever call Ava Monroe a people person, which isn’t
ideal for a barista in a busy London coffee shop. She’s sarcastic,
blunt, and cynical, and her relationships are strictly no strings
attached. With her best friend Josie soon leaving for a year, Ava knows
she’ll be all alone unless she shakes up her routine. But she can’t
risk bringing chance back into her carefully controlled life.
Then insufferably cheerful, country-hopping, undeniably gorgeous Finn
O’Callaghan rolls into her coffee shop with a horrifying proposal —a
strictly friends-only summer fling. Finn needs a local to help him
complete his London bucket list, and Ava needs to reassure Josie she
won’t be on her own. And it’s only for a few months.
To Ava’s surprise, their mismatched friendship of convenience becomes
oddly tolerable, and as they work their way through Finn’s list and
around the sun-drenched city, from rooftops and floating bars to nights
at the museum, their adventures—and Finn’s company—start to feel . . .
nice. Incredibly, terrifyingly, dangerously nice.
Still, rules are rules—Ava has good reasons for them—and as the days
get shorter, Finn’s departure gets closer. Because that’s the thing
about summer: it always ends. Right?
From the physician behind the wildly popular Nutrition Facts website, How Not to Die reveals the groundbreaking scientific evidence behind the only diet that can help prevent and reverse many of the causes of disease-related death.
In How Not to Die, Dr. Michael Greger, the internationally-renowned nutrition expert, physician, and founder of NutritionFacts.org, examines the fifteen top causes of premature death in America--heart disease, various cancers, diabetes, Parkinson's, high blood pressure, and more--and explains how nutritional and lifestyle interventions can sometimes trump prescription pills and other pharmaceutical and surgical approaches to help prevent and reverse these diseases, freeing us to live healthier lives.
The simple truth is that most doctors are good at treating acute illnesses but bad at preventing chronic disease. The fifteen leading causes of death claim the lives of 1.6 million Americans annually. This doesn't have to be the case. By following Dr. Greger's advice, all of it backed up by strong scientific evidence, you will learn which foods to eat and which lifestyle changes to make to live longer.
History of prostate cancer in your family? Put down that glass of milk and add flaxseed to your diet whenever you can. Have high blood pressure? Hibiscus tea can work better than a leading hypertensive drug-and without the side effects. Fighting off liver disease? Drinking coffee can reduce liver inflammation. Battling breast cancer? Consuming soy is associated with prolonged survival. Worried about heart disease (the number 1 killer in the United States)? Switch to a whole-food, plant-based diet, which has been repeatedly shown not just to prevent the disease but often stop it in its tracks.
In addition to showing what to eat to help treat the top fifteen causes of death, How Not to Die includes Dr. Greger's Daily Dozen -a checklist of the twelve foods we should consume every day.Full of practical, actionable advice and surprising, cutting edge nutritional science, these doctor's orders are just what we need to live longer, healthier lives.
Megan Kortlandt, Carly Stone, and Samantha Keesling have developed
a flexible structure for collaborative professional learning that
they call the principal lab, in which K-12 principals learn with
and from each other to become better instructional leaders. Each
chapter walks through the foundational components of a successful
principal lab-relationship building, anchoring experiences,
observations, and feedback-and then discusses how to lay the
groundwork, figure out logistics, and plan and structure
labs.Principal Labs: Strengthening Instructional Leadership Through
Shared Learning combines the latest research in adult learning with
the authors' practical experience to discuss the qualities of a
successful principal lab and provide the tools to build your own.
It's easy to get started with downloadable reflection and
observation templates based on the examples in each chapter. As a
school principal you have many responsibilities, and finding time
for your own professional development can be a challenge. The
approach in this book will help you effectively use your time to
connect with other principals, practice and develop feedback
skills, and ultimately make informed decisions for instructional
improvement in your school.
Theatre of the Book explores the impact of printing on the European theatre, 1480-1880. Far from being marginal to Renaissance dramatists, the printing press played an essential role in the birth of the modern theatre. Looking at playtexts, engravings, actor portraits, notation systems, and theatrical ephemera as part of the broader history of theatrical ideas, this illustrated book offers both a history of European dramatic publication and an examination of the European theatre's continual refashioning of itself in the world of print.
