Moskowitz discloses her personal health reasons that resulted in her decision to find more recipes that are lighter in caloric intake. Luckily, I don’t have to return Isa Chandra Moskowitz’s newest book, Appetite for Reduction, which is doomed to the same fate as its predecessor: lovingly used with pages that are turned with excitement, torn at its edges and bearing of all kinds of quirky marks, compliments of the daring cook. A cookbook, naturally, absorbs the effort of its teachings: oils and buttered thumb prints, dried arrow root smudges, and one small berry stain on two of the pages when I tried to turn them with fruit juice-stained fingers. The book shouldn’t have been returned because it smelled like food. Not in the state it was in after it lived in my kitchen for five renewed status cycles (the maximum number I was allowed before I had to return it to my local library). My library copy of Vegan with a Vengeance shouldn’t have been returned. ![]()

These books don't get the attention they deserve!Then Rosebush came along. I didn't know if I'd like it since it is nothing like her adult titles, but I loved it! The main character, Jasmine, is wonderful and hilarious and I'm not sure if anyone could manage to not laugh aloud while reading Bad Kitty and its sequel, Kitty Kitty. After I devoured those, I read Bad Kitty, one of her YA novels. Instead, I was addicted to her Arboretti Family novels, which are adult historical mysteries set in Europe with plenty of romance and steamy encounters. I started reading her books back in freshman year of high school. I should probably start off by saying that I am a huge Michele Jaffe fan. ![]() ![]() Although hailed as a voice of millennials, Rooney offers plenty to appeal to readers across genders and generations. Normal People is a compulsive, psychologically astute will-they-or-won't-they love story involving two of the most sympathetic people you're liable to meet between covers. I'm happy to report that Rooney's novels are exciting hand-held devices - new books that bring a 21st century perspective on insecurity to the coming-of-age narrative. At 28, the Trinity College Dublin graduate has published two novels, Conversations with Friends (2017) and Normal People, both to the sort of excitement that more typically greets new hand-held electronic devices. Such heaps of praise have piled up for Irish writer Sally Rooney, there's a danger of suffocation from avalanching expectations. ![]() Your purchase helps support NPR programming. ![]() ![]() Close overlay Buy Featured Book Title Normal People Author Sally Rooney ![]() ![]() ![]() Her mother twisted around, lifted her hand, and held the pose, her arm trembling.

We have been told it's impossible to get off fossil fuels, when in fact we know exactly how to do it-it just requires breaking every rule in the "free market" playbook: reining in corporate power, rebuilding local economies, and reclaiming our democracies. We have been told the market will save us, when in fact the addiction to profit and growth is digging us in deeper every day. Klein exposes the myths that are clouding the climate debate. In her most provocative book yet, Naomi Klein tackles the most profound threat humanity has ever faced: the war our economic model is waging against life on earth. The convenient truth is that we can seize this existential crisis to transform our failed economic system and build something radically better. The really inconvenient truth is that it's not about carbon-it's about capitalism. the climate / Naomi Klein Book Bib IDīook, Online - Google Booksįirst Simon & Schuster hardcover edition.įorget everything you think you know about global warming. ![]() |
