The author, Nancy Redd, was a beauty pageant contestant who decided that the shame girls have about their bodies stems mostly from a lack of knowledge. Finally, a food and fitness book that doesn't condescend or blame, Diet Drama begins with body image and shows readers that health comes in all shapes and sizes. by Nancy Amanda Redd This is a great book for all girls or even women who still have questions about their bodies. In her uniquely reassuring "big sister" voice and with a fresh, fun, and frank attitude that has made her the nation's go-to girl for body issues, Nancy addresses the common, painful, and shameful "diet dramas" that most mainstream diet and nutrition books miss, including: "I think I'm healthy, but medical charts say I'm not" "I can't afford a gym so I can't exercise properly" and "I just want to have weight loss surgery and be done with it." Nancy's advice is vetted by a leading adolescent medicine expert and the book is packed with informative "fast facts," moving personal anecdotes of Nancy's own diet experiences, and revolutionary real-deal four-color photographs of young women sized 2 to 22. At a time when both obesity and eating disorders are on the rise, Harvard graduate and former Miss Virginia Nancy Redd provides a much- needed resource for millions of young women and concerned parents. The New York Times bestselling author of Body Drama addresses anxieties young women face about weight, diet, exercise, and body image.

In short, it’s a rich genre that’s yielded many gems over the years and continues to be reimagined and interpreted by a variety of writers today. I love the Southern Gothic of writers such as Eden Royce (I highly recommend her two collections Spook Lights I & II). I’ve not read Mexican Gothic (2020) by Silvia Moreno-Garcia, yet, but I’ve yet to see a bad review! One might also include playful mockeries of the genre, such as Northanger Abbey by Jane Austen (1803), along with a profusion of short stories so innumerable that it would be foolish to try sum them up here. There are of course numerous twentieth century contributors to the genre, such as Shirley Jackson, and indeed older works, such as the plays of Shakespeare – perhaps most notably Macbeth (1606) and Hamlet (1609) – that whilst not technically “Gothic novels”, certainly laid groundwork for the genre we understand today. Then, there’s Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte (1847), Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte (1847), The Picture of Dorian Grey by Oscar Wilde (1890), the works of Edgar Allan Poe, and, for the real aficionados among you, such relics as The Castle of Otranto by Horace Walpole (1764). Next, perhaps, would be Dracula by Bram Stoker (1897). First and foremost is probably the groundbreaking Frankenstein by Mary Shelley (1818) – arguably also the birth of science fiction in its current form. When I say the words “Gothic novel” to you, a few names and titles might spring to mind. But the dual love stories of Honor are as different as the cultures of Meena and Smita themselves: Smita realizes she has the freedom to enter into a casual affair, knowing she can decide later how much it means to her. She also finds herself increasingly drawn to Mohan, an Indian man she meets while on assignment. While Meena’s fate hangs in the balance, Smita tries in every way she can to right the scales. As she follows the case of Meena-a Hindu woman attacked by members of her own village and her own family for marrying a Muslim man-Smita comes face to face with a society where tradition carries more weight than one’s own heart, and a story that threatens to unearth the painful secrets of Smita’s own past. Indian American journalist Smita has returned to India to cover a story, but reluctantly: long ago she and her family left the country with no intention of ever coming back.

Publisher: Amazon Digital Services – Kindle: 2.99 A biologist known for his work on coral reefs, a hot spot of marine degradation often compared to rainforests on land, Roberts takes readers on a journey through biology, chemistry and geology, from the creation of the planet to the present. No account of the cataclysm is more engaging than Roberts’ “The Ocean of Life.”Although it contains very little that is new - the science has been published and the warnings have been heard - the book is powerful in its completeness. One of the scientists leading the way is Callum Roberts, who, in his latest book, catalogs the extent of the oceans’ crisis. So in some ways the crisis we are discovering comes as a far greater shock than the devastation of the land that we have been observing for more than a century. With the exception of a few pioneers, we have been studying and cataloging the devastation of the ocean for only two or three decades and intensely studying it for little more than a decade.

The bold bright colorful pages and comics within the story appeal to kids. My kids are WILD about Ricky Ricotta’s Mighty Robot book series, by Dav Pilkey, creator of Captain Underpants. I was terrified it was going to suffer the same ‘second-book syndrome’ as so many other great series’ do. Everyone told me that it was, both on Goodreads and in my social circle, but I took their reviews with a grain of salt because it’s so hard to trust reviews anymore, especially with sequels.

Once upon a time, a girl had a father, a prince, a society of friends. Writing only entered the picture when the author started her freelance graphic design company in Baltimore. The New Internationalist Magazine was just starting at the time, and Putney appreciated the opportunity it gave her to interact with idealistic designers and artists. As such, while her friend attended graduate school, she looked for work. Putney had years of experience as a designer. The author was living in Oxford with a friend when she landed the position. Putney worked for The New Internationalist Magazine (London) as an art editor. At the time, she had no intention of pursuing writing as a career, so she was more than happy to dedicate her life to design. Putney doesn’t regret the decision because she fell in love with design. But then the author met an industrial design student that was seemingly having more fun than her, so she changed majors. She pursued the subject because she loved reading. |
