HAVE YOU WANTED TO BECOME HER—SPIRITUALLY, PERSONALLY, AND PROFESSIONALLY? Kimberla Lawson Roby admits that for years, she wasn’t being the real woman God created her to be. Yes, she has always loved God and tried her best to honor Him, but what she eventually discovered was that building and maintaining her own personal relationship with God—and making Him her top priority—was the key to finding joy in all areas of her life. Now, in The Woman God Created You to Be, Kimberla has bravely—and transparently—written about her flaws, fears, and failures, as well as her faith, courage, and successes. From experiencing divorce to marrying her soulmate of twenty-nine years … from hopelessly searching for the perfect job to becoming a New York Times bestselling author … from suffering in silence with anxiety to concentrating on self-care … from struggling with the loss of her mom to finding strength, comfort, peace, and understanding—Kimberla takes you on a journey that will help you do the following:  • Become the Best Spiritual You (Seven Days Per Week) • Become the Best Personal You (Mentally, Emotionally, and Physically) • Become the Best Professional You (Without Jeopardizing Your Faith) Kimberla reminds us that when we trust and depend on God—heart, mind, and soul—He will empower us to do more than we ever thought imaginable. He will help us see that we are more than enough, and that He has already given us everything we need to become the women He created us to be—spiritually, personally, professionally … and beyond.

Title: [Spanish] - La despoblación Author: Marina Closs Narrator: Emilio Caballero Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 19 minutes Release date: December 16, 2024 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: En el Guayrá, una misión jesuítica en medio de la selva, el padre Antonio Ruiz y su fiel ayudante, el padre Jesús Maceta, viven sus días imbuídos en un cristianismo profundamente creyente e igualmente alucinado. Entre aborígenes y niños músicos que siguen sus enseñanzas y sus órdenes, los días y las aventuras se suceden. El cristianismo de la misión está repleto de leyes y prohibiciones, que en primera instancia parecen caprichosas. Para que no falte nada, se presenta Overá, que se dice Hijo de Dios, nacido de 'un rayo de luz guardado nueve meses en un cántaro', y hermano de Jesús. La presencia de Overá desconcierta y trastoca la vida de la misión.

Title: A Darker Wilderness: Black Nature Writing from Soil to Stars Author: Erin Sharkey Narrator: Carmen Jewel Jones Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 45 minutes Release date: November 19, 2024 Genres: Animals & Nature Publisher's Summary: What are the politics of nature? Who owns it, where is it, what role does it play in our lives? Does it need to be tamed? Are we ourselves natural? In A Darker Wilderness, a constellation of luminary writers reflect on the significance of nature in their lived experience and on the role of nature in the lives of Black folks in the United States. Each of these essays engages with a single archival object, whether directly or obliquely, exploring stories spanning hundreds of years and thousands of miles, traveling from roots to space and finding rich Blackness everywhere. Erin Sharkey considers Benjamin Banneker's 1795 almanac, as she follows the passing of seasons in an urban garden in Buffalo. Naima Penniman reflects on a statue of Haitian revolutionary François Makandal, within her own pursuit of environmental justice. Ama Codjoe meditates on rain, hair, protest, and freedom via a photo of a woman during a civil rights demonstration in Alabama. And so on with wide-ranging contributions unearthing evidence of the ways Black people's relationship to the natural world has persevered through colonialism, slavery, violence, and structurally racist policies. A scrapbook, a family chest, a quilt—a work of historical engagement and literary accomplishment—A Darker Wilderness is a collection brimming with abundance and insight.

Alcina views Eden as her polar opposite on the supernatural scale of good and evil and doesn’t trust her to conduct a proper investigation, no matter what her badge says. Meanwhile, Grandma and Aunt Thora have decided to participate in Chipping Cheddar’s first annual Mature Woman competition in order to raise funds for the senior center, a decision that Eden worries will result in more trouble than a washing machine is worth. Will Eden keep Alcina at bay long enough to save the competition and find the killer—or has she finally met her supernatural match?

Title: Parade's End: The Complete Tetralogy Author: Ford Madox Ford Narrator: Rupert Degas Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 34 hours 27 minutes Release date: November 5, 2024 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: There is a hard brightness overlying the emotion and the human suffering and the human passions… Mr. Ford achieves not only what is probably his own best work but what is certainly one of the ablest of recent English novels. — The New York Times, 1924 There are not many English novels which deserve to be called great: Parade's End is one of them. — W. H. Auden Ford Madox Ford's Parade's End tetralogy, written in the aftermath of World War I, was originally published in four parts in the 1920s: Some Do Not…; No More Parades; A Man Could Stand Up —; and Last Post. Highlighting the tension between traditional values and a rapidly changing social order in a world embroiled in war, the story details Tietjens' turmoils in both his personal life and on the warfront—and what follows when some of those struggles become one and the same. Unique among other war fiction of the time, Parade's End privileges not the conflict of the Great War itself, but the impact the war had on its participants and upon society writ large. With it's publication, Ford hoped to contribute to the obviating of all future wars. Parade's End is often referred to as one of the greatest 20th century novels, and one of the best depictions of war in literature. The 2012 television adaptation, written by Tom Stoppard (Shakespeare in Love), directed by Susanna White (Andor) and starring Benedict Cumberbatch and Rebecca Hall, was nominated for two Primetime Emmy Awards and seven BAFTA Television Awards.
