Modern medicine has conquered or contained many of the diseases that used to carry children away before their time, reducing mortality and improving health. Vaccination and treatment are widely available. There are still monsters left to fight, but the old ones, the simple ones, trouble us no more. Or so we thought. For with the reduction in danger comes the erosion of memory, as pandemics fade from memory into story into fairy tale. Those old diseases can't have been so bad, people say, or we wouldn't be here to talk about them. They're never coming back.... It begins with a fever.

I had one rule. Stay invisible until my past stopped hunting me. No men. Especially not a six-foot-six MC enforcer with an eight pack and biceps that could crack walnuts. But when Vince “Havoc” Blackwood walked into my clinic with a bleeding dog and a stare that stole my breath? He called me baby girl and I… didn’t tell him to stop. Now Havoc watches me like a hawk, gives me rules I didn't ask for, and says I’m safest either in his bed or over his knee. And when my abusive ex shows up to collect what he thinks still belongs to him? Vince doesn’t just step between us. He promises...

They believed they would live forever. So begins Mira Ptacin's haunting account of the women of Camp Etna - an otherworldly community in the woods of Maine that has, since 1876, played host to generations of Spiritualists and mediums dedicated to preserving the links between the mortal realm and the afterlife. Beginning her narrative in 1848 with two sisters who claimed they could speak to the dead, Ptacin reveals how Spiritualism first blossomed into a national practice during the Civil War, yet continues - even thrives - to this very day.

I had one plan. Work hard and save up enough to build a life outside of being ‘the mechanic’s daughter’ of Bratton Hollow. No crushes. No chaos. And definitely no getting weak in the knees over the town’s grumpy, too-old-for-me, off-limits sheriff. Then I got lightheaded, and he got bossy. He called me little girl and I... called him Daddy. Now Royce Hoffman watches me like he owns me. He feeds me when I forget, scolds me when I don’t listen, and tells me I don’t have to be strong all the time. And when he puts me over his lap and says it’s time for Daddy’s rules? Let’s ...

In a carefully controlled environment, with a medical cocktail running through their veins, sisters might develop a bond they've been missing their whole lives—while running from the bogeyman through a simulated forest. But . . . can real change come so easily?

“A major theme of Digital Future in the Rearview Mirror is that the internet has pushed us to ‘digital orality,’ that is to say, to the forms of communication prevalent before the invention of writing. This brings in a long train of consequences, not least concerning the nature of truth.” – Martin Gurri, author of “The Revolt of the Public” “Andrey Mir’s Digital Future in the Rearview Mirror describes the rise and fall of literate culture. Mir has sold me on the idea that what I think of as rational, scientific thinking comes from the way that our minds are shaped by ...

Overthinking doesn’t protect your relationship—it pushes it away. The more you analyze every text, overinterpret silences, and second-guess your partner’s words, the more anxious and disconnected you feel. Love isn’t meant to be a puzzle you have to solve—it’s about trust, communication, and presence. If overthinking is making love feel exhausting instead of fulfilling, it’s time to break free.

The Houdini Club captures the personal drama of World War II Special Forces warfare. The men of maverick Colonel William O. Darby's Rangers had abundant tales of glory, yes, but also tales of misery, fear, and murderous intent. Then, there was the utter exhaustion contrasted by the thrill of combat, the devastating final battle that all but destroyed them, and the ingenuity and sheer determination that made the highly vaunted German Afrika Korps and veteran German Parachute and Panzer units marvel at their guerilla tactics and their prison breakouts.

"Postjournalism and the Death of Newspapers may be the most profound analysis of the subject since the last time Marshall McLuhan wrote about it.

Everything is told in a wonderful epigrammatic style – you will be digging up quotes from it for years." – Martin Gurri, author of “The Revolt of the Public”. "The most important book in media theory that has been written in 40 years." – Paul Levinson, author of “Digital McLuhan”. "Andrey Mir’s Postjournalism offers a powerful, ...

I was supposed to ruin him. Upload the receipts, cancel the billionaire, collect my payday. What I wasn’t supposed to do? Moan “yes, Daddy” before I’d even found the damn copy room. Dominic Kane is everything I hate. Capitalism in a custom suit. Power with a clenched jaw. A filthy mind behind a cleaner-than-clean NDA. But then he told me to sit still. Called me baby girl. Said if I wanted to keep the job, I’d better start behaving like I’m his. And I folded like a bad alibi. Now he feeds me praise and pleasure. Leaves marks where my ethics used to live. Tells me I look pretty ...
