Who Was Sophie?
By the end of her life, Sophie Curly was essentially a bag lady you might have walked past on a park bench, or ignored, as she looked for something over and over again in her handbag. She was blown about the streets of Nottingham, one of those crumpled figures, half frightening, half pitiful . . . Kids threw stones at her. But this was only one of my Grandmother's lives: she hadn't always been Sophie Curly. Back in the 1930s she was Joan Adeney Easdale, a teenage girl with two volumes of poetry published by Leonard and Virginia Woolf at the Hogarth Press. She grew up in Hampstead and in a cottage in Kent with her mother Gladys and her brother Brian, who later won an Oscar for writing the music for The Red Shoes.' From the British literary world of the 1930s to first-hand experience of post-war emigration, psychiatric practices in the 1950s and 1960s and the grim realities of modern day city life this a granddaughter's beautifully told account of the search for the truth about her grandmother's extraordinary life.- Shop: buecher

Brainstorm (eBook, ePUB)
What's worse than nearly puking in front of a cute guy? Zombies. Definitely zombies.Sadie isn't feeling so great, but she's determined not to barf in the book she's holding . . . especially not in front of that cute guy who's checking out the library's pitiful selection of DVDs. So she's less than thrilled when he follows her into the bathroom, even if it's just to make sure she's okay.When they emerge, the library appears to be closed. Weirder still, it's surrounded by a strange storm that definitely wasn't there a few minutes earlier. Sadie and her new friend (or enemy-she hasn't decided yet) won't be going anywhere for a while.Being trapped in a library with a cute guy might not be the worst thing in the world. It might not be the best thing, either . . . especially once that weird storm starts spitting out things that are only supposed to exist in stories.Brainstorm is a standalone novelette of approximately 16,000 words that incorporates elements of the paranormal, forced-proximity, and Refugee From TV Land tropes.- Shop: buecher
