In Blackberry Burrow, females like me were nothing more than property, used to breed and controlled by rules I didn’t agree to. With my first heat due any day, the rabbit shifter men had already started negotiating who would be sharing my bed, like I was nothing more than a toy for their amusement.

Als Robert Stern diesem ungewöhnlichen Treffen zugestimmt hatte, wusste er nicht, dass er damit eine Verabredung mit dem Tod einging. Noch weniger ahnte er, dass der Tod etwa 1,43 m messen, Turnschuhe tragen und lächelnd auf einem gottverlassenen Industriegelände in sein Leben treten würde.

Using the #JustBeKind trend of the 2020s as a starting point, (Un)kind explores how traditional beliefs about women's 'kind' nature have been repackaged for an age that remains dependent - socially, politically, economically - on female self-sacrifice while finding the concept outdated and essentialist. Looking at the various guises under which kindness culture is sold to women and girls - from play to self-help, social justice activism to empowerment - Victoria Smith argues that the pressure on women and girls has not decreased, but instead been incorporated into the 'work' of feminism.

In KIND, Graham Allcott explores how we can create work cultures that encourage kindness. He argues that, far from being a ‘fluffy’ or nebulous idea, kindness and empathy are 21st century superpowers, which can transform any organization into a dynamic environment where people want to work. The author aims to convince the doubters, as well as helping already ‘kindful’ people, to articulate the power of kindness and make a stronger case for its greater profile in their working environments.

Growing up in an isolated cabin in Montana in the mid-1990s, Jane knows only the world that she and her father live in: the woodstove that heats their home, the vegetable garden where they try to eke out a subsistence, the books of nineteenth-century philosophy that her father gives her to read in lieu of going to school. Her father is elusive about their pasts, giving Jane little beyond the facts that they once lived in the Bay Area and that her mother died in a car accident, the crash propelling him to move Jane off the grid to raise her in a Waldenesque utopia.

Bury Me in a Dirty Suit is a gripping eyewitness account of 9/11 and a heartfelt exploration of what it means to live with a valiant purpose. With honesty and humility, Kinder recounts the chaos and trauma of that day, the resilience of the human spirit, and the sustaining power of faith in the darkest hour. Through personal reflection and biblical insight, he invites listeners to consider their own missions, their own "why," and challenges men especially to answer God’s call, step up, and fight back against the darkness.
