How to Do the Work Recognize Your Patterns, Heal from Your Past, and Create Your Self By Dr. Nicole LePera Read by Dr. Nicole LePera From Dr. Nicole LePera, creator of “the holistic psychologist”—the online phenomenon with more than two million Instagram followers —comes a revolutionary approach to healing that harnesses the power of the self to produce lasting change. As a clinical psychologist, Dr. Nicole LePera often found herself frustrated by the limitations of traditional psychotherapy. Wanting more for her patients—and for herself—she began a journey to develop a united philosophy of mental, physical and spiritual wellness that equips people with the interdisciplinary tools necessary to heal themselves. After experiencing the life-changing results herself, she began to share what she’d learned with others—and soon “The Holistic Psychologist” was born. Now, Dr. LePera is ready to share her much-requested protocol with the world. In How to Do the Work, she oﬀers both a manifesto for SelfHealing as well as an essential guide to creating a more vibrant, authentic, and joyful life. Drawing on the latest research from a diversity of scienti c elds and healing modalities, Dr. LePera helps us recognize how adverse experiences and trauma in childhood live with us, resulting in whole body dysfunction—activating harmful stress responses that keep us stuck engaging in patterns of codependency, emotional immaturity, and trauma bonds. Unless addressed, these self-sabotaging behaviors can quickly become cyclical, leaving people feeling unhappy, unful lled, and unwell. In How to Do the Work, Dr. LePera oﬀers readers the support and tools that will allow them to break free from destructive behaviors to reclaim and recreate their lives. Nothing short of a paradigm shift, this is a celebration of empowerment that will forever change the way we approach mental wellness and self-care. DR. NICOLE LEPERA is a holistic psychologist. She received traditional training in clinical psychology at Cornell University and The New School of Social Research. Based on her hugely popular Instagram account @the.holistic.psychology, she continues to expand her reach through her free daily content and membership-only learning site, #SelfHealers.

He wants a prim and proper duchess, not the Wildest of the Wildes. Already notorious for the golden hair that proves her mother’s in delity, Lady Joan can’t seem to avoid scandals, but her latest escapade may nally ruin her: she’s determined to perform the title role of a prince —in breeches, naturally. She has the perfect model for an aristocratic male in mind: Thaddeus Erskine Shaw, Viscount Greywick, a man who scorned the very idea of marrying her. Not that Joan would want such a dubious honor, of course. For years, Thaddeus has avoided the one Wilde who shakes his composure, but he’s horri ed when he grasps the danger that Joan is putting herself in. Staring into her de ant eyes, he makes the grim vow that he’ll keep her safe. He strikes a bargain: after one performance, the lady must return to her father’s castle and marry one of three gentlemen whom he deems acceptable. Not including him, of course.

“A secret-stacked, thrilling series opener.”

—Publishers Weekly (starred review) on Greystone Secrets #1: The Strangers

As book three of the Greystone Secrets series opens, the Greystone kids have their mother back from the evil alternate world, and so does their friend Natalie. But no one believes the danger is past. Then mysterious coins begin falling from unexpected places. They are inscribed with codes that look just like what the Greystones’ father was working on before he died. And with the right touch, those symbols transform into words: PLEASE LISTEN. And FIND US, SEE US, HELP US … The coins are messengers, telling the Greystones and their allies that their friends in the alternate world are under attack—and that the cruel, mind-controlling forces are now invading the better world, too. After another spinning, sliding journey across worlds, the Greystone kids must solve mysteries that have haunted them since the beginning: what happened when the Gustanos were kidnapped, what created the alternate world, and how a group of mismatched kids can triumph once and for all against an evil force that seems to have total control.

From the New York Times bestselling author comes an addictive novel of domestic suspense in which a mother must decide how far she is willing to go to protect her child and the life she loves—a chilling and thoughtful tale of power, privilege, lies, revenge, and the choices we make, ones that transform our lives in unforeseen ways. Revenge doesn’t wait for permission. Growing up poor in rural Georgia, Bree Cabbat’s single mother warned her that the world was a dark and scary place. Bree rejected her mother’s fearful outlook, and life has proved her right. Marrying into a family with wealth, power, and connections, Bree has all a woman could ever dream: a loving lawyer husband, two talented young teenage daughters, a new baby boy, a gorgeous home, and every opportunity in the world. Until the day Bree awakens and sees a witch peering into her bedroom window, an old gray-haired woman all dressed in black who vanishes as quickly as she appears. It must be a play of the early morning light or the remnant of a waking dream, Bree tells herself, shaking oﬀ the bad feeling that overcomes her. Later that day though, she spies the old woman again, in the parking lot of her daughters’ private school … just minutes before Bree’s baby son, asleep on the seat beside her, vanishes. It happened so quickly— Bree only looked away for a second. A note warns no police. No deviations. And she is being watched. The mysterious woman makes contact, and Bree learns she, too, is a mother. Why would another mother do this? What does she want? And why has she targeted Bree? Of course Bree will pay anything, do anything. It’s her child. To get her baby back, Bree must complete one small—but critical— task. It seems harmless enough, but her action comes with a devastating price, making her complicit in a tangled web of tragedy and shocking secrets that will destroy everything she loves. It is the beginning of an odyssey that will lead Bree to dangerous places, explosive confrontations, and chilling truths. Bree will do whatever it takes to protect her family—but what if the cost tears their world apart?

Now approaching middle age, the women are facing challenges they never imagined as teens, struggles with their marriages, their children, their careers, and wondering who it is they see when they look in the mirror. Then Liz, V, and Rachel each receive a letter from Emily with devastating news. She implores the girls who were once her best friends to reunite at Camp Birchwood one last time, to spend a week together revisiting the dreams they’d put aside and repair the relationships they’d allowed to sour. But the women are not the same idealistic, con dent girls who once ruled Camp Birchwood, and perhaps some friendships aren’t meant to last forever … VIOLA SHIPMAN is a pen name for Wade Rouse, a popular, awardwinning memoirist.

At some point, we are all going to be free to travel again, and when that time comes, Scott Keyes will be there to make sure we never overpay for ights again. Vacations are supposed to fun escapes, but the confusion of buying ights—not knowing when to book, where to buy, what to pay, or where to go—can erode the joy of travel. Though airfare can be unpredictable, it’s not indecipherable. With an understanding of how airfare works and a new strategy for planning vacations, anyone can get up and go. Take More Vacations will rst explain what’s stopping us from traveling as much as we want to and the cognitive biases that push us to overpay for ights. Listeners will discover why the traditional way of planning vacations undercuts our ability to enjoy them, and how a new approach can lead to cheaper fares and more trips. Next, Keyes explains why cheap ights never have to be inconvenient ights, and all the steps you can take to get a good fare even when you don’t have exibility. He lays out practical advice on when and where to book, the hidden reason to avoid budget airlines, and the surprising best week for international travel. He debunks myths (don’t bother clearing your cookies), explains why airlines regularly sell $300 roundtrip ights to Europe, and shows how small airports actually get the best deals. Imagine if vacation planning was as fun as the trip itself. Take More Vacations challenges the conventional wisdom that it costs thousands of dollars to y overseas and shows listeners how to make previously unthinkable trips possible. SCOTT KEYES is the founder of Scott’s Cheap Flights, a travel platform with over two million members around the world. Prior to becoming a leading expert on cheap ights, Scott graduated from Stanford University and worked for years as a journalist, with bylines in the Washington Post, The Atlantic, The Guardian, The Nation, and elsewhere.

Light in the Darkness Black Holes, the Universe, and Us By Heino Falcke Read by Adam Verner A fascinating and thought-provoking investigation into the nature of black holes—a blend of the spiritual, the philosophical, and the scienti c—from the premier German astrophysicist who made history in 2019, capturing the rst one on lm A Light in the Darkness is the story of one of the greatest astrological achievements of all time: the rst photographic evidence of black holes in April 2019, and its signi cance for humanity, told by the scientist who accomplished it. A man of faith ordained in the Protestant tradition, Heino Falcke wrestles with the ways in which black holes force us to confront the boundary where human life ends and the celestial begins. He also ponders why black holes are diﬃcult for most of us to understand—comparing it to our inability to envisage our own inevitable death. Black holes develop in outer space when a massive star dies, and its matter is condensed. That extreme amount of mass contained in a small space generates a gigantic amount of gravitational force, allowing the black hole to suck up everything that comes near, including light. These astronomical wonders are the subject of our greatest scienti c and philosophical theorizing—the journey to a black hole would be the journey to the end of time itself. In this way, Falcke regards them as the most exquisite representations of fear, death … and, surprisingly, the divine. Empirical and profound, A Light in the Darkness is the rst work to examine both the physical nature and spiritual meaning of black holes, those astrophysical mysteries Falcke, calls “the epitome of merciless destruction.” HEINO FALCKE is a German professor of radio astronomy and astroparticle physics at the Radboud University Nijmegen. He was a winner of the 2011 Spinoza Prize. His main eld of study is black holes. He lives in Berlin.

“A thoroughly enjoyable escape…that daughters, mothers, and matriarchs alike will enjoy.”

Welcome to Oak Bluffs, the most exclusive black beach community in the country. Known for its gingerbread Victorian-style houses and modern architectural marvels, this picturesque town hugging the sea is a mecca for the crème de la crème of black society—where Michelle and Barack Obama vacation and Meghan Markle has shopped for a house for her mom. Thirty years ago, Amelia Vaux Tanner and her husband built a house high on the bluffs, a cottage they named Chateau Laveau. For decades, “Ama” played host to American presidents, Wall Street titans, and cultural icons. But her favorite guests have always been her three “goddaughters:” Esperanza “Perry” Soto, Olivia Jones, and Billie Hayden. Growing up, these three goddaughters from different backgrounds came together each summer at Chateau Laveau. This summer on the Bluffs, however, will be different. An era is ending: Ama, now nearing seventy-one, is moving to the south of France to reunite with her college sweetheart. She has invited Perry, Olivia, and Billy to spend one last golden summer together with her the way they did when they were kids. And when fall comes, she is going to give the house to one of them. Each of the women wants the house desperately. Each is grappling with a secret she fears will hurt her and her chances. By the end of summer, old ties will fray, new bonds will be created, and these three found sisters will discover they aren’t the only ones with something to hide. Ama has a few secrets of her own. What she has to give them is far more than property. Between Memorial Day and Labor Day, she will tell these surrogate daughters she ercely loves and protects everything they never knew they needed to know. SUNNY HOSTIN is the Emmy-winning legal journalist and co-host of The View. She is the author of the novel Summer on the Bluffs and her memoir, I Am These Truths.

Films of Endearment A Mother, a Son and the 80s Films That De ned Us By Michael Koresky

“A lovely and loving book.”

—Will Schwalbe, New York Times bestselling author

Michael Koresky’s most formative memories were simple ones. A movie rental. A mug of tea. And a few shared hours with his mother. Years later and now a successful lm critic, Koresky set out on a journey with his mother to discover more about their shared cinematic past. They rewatched ten lms that she rst introduced to him as a child, one from every year of the 80s, each featuring women leads. Together, lms as divergent as 9 to 5, Terms of Endearment, The Color Purple and Aliens form the story of an era that Koresky argues should rightly be called “The Decade of the Actress.” Films of Endearment is a reappraisal of the most important and popular female-driven lms of that time, a profound meditation on loss and resilience, and a celebration of the special bond between mothers and their sons. MICHAEL KORESKY is a lm critic, screenwriter, and Director of Editorial and Creative Strategy at the Film Society of Lincoln Center in New York City.

Pastoral Song By James Rebanks Pastoral Song is the story of an inheritance: one that aﬀects us all. It tells of how rural landscapes around the world were brought close to collapse, and the age-old rhythms of work, weather, community and wild things were lost. And yet this elegy from the northern fells is also a song of hope: of how, guided by the past, one farmer began to salvage a tiny corner of England that was now his, doing his best to restore the life that had vanished and to leave a legacy for the future.

In this dazzling collection of essays, skillfully constructed and brimming with emotion, she shares her thoughts on the joys and vagaries of modern-day womanhood and motherhood, introduces the not-quitetypical family that made her who she is, and persuasively argues that lowbrow pop culture is the perfect lens through which to understand human nature.

He calls for a rigorous science of mental immune health to revolutionize our capacity for critical thinking.

After being injured in a freak accident, novelist Gerry Andersen lies in a hospital bed in his glamorous but sterile apartment, isolated from the busy world he can see through his windows, utterly dependent on two women he barely knows: his young assistant and a night nurse whose competency he questions. But Gerry is also beginning to question his own competency. As he moves in and out of dreamlike memories and seemingly random appearances of a persistent ex-girlfriend at his bedside, he fears he may be losing his grip on reality, much like his mother who recently passed away from dementia. Most distressing, he believes he’s being plagued by strange telephone calls, in which a woman claiming to be the titular character of his hit novel Dream Girl swears she will be coming to see him soon. The character is completely ctitious, but no one has ever believed Gerry when he makes that claim. Is he the victim of a cruel prank—or is he actually losing his mind? There is no record of the calls according to the log on his phone. Could there be someone he has wronged? Is someone coming to do him harm as he lies helplessly in bed? Then comes the morning he wakes up next to a dead body—and realizes his nightmare is just beginning… LAURA LIPPMAN is a New York Times bestselling novelist who has won more than twenty awards for her ction, including the Edgar Award— and been nominated for thirty more.

The new owner oﬀers Stevie an invitation: Come to the camp and help him work on a true crime podcast about the case. Stevie agrees, as long as she can bring along her friends from Ellingham Academy. Nothing sounds better than a summer spent together, investigating old murders. But something evil still lurks in Barlow Corners. When Stevie opens the lid on this long-dormant case, she gets much more than she bargained for. The Box in the Woods will make room for more victims. This time, Stevie may not make it out alive.

—New York Review of Books, praise for the author

Parallel Movement of the Hands gathers unpublished, book-length projects and long poems written between 1993 and 2007, along with one as yet undated work, to showcase Ashbery’s diverse and multifaceted artistic obsessions and sources, from children’s literature, cliﬀhanger cinema reels, silent lms, and classical music variations by Beethoven’s pupil Carl Czerny to the history of early photography. Ashbery even provides a fresh and humorous take on a well-worn parable from the Gospel of Matthew. These works demonstrate that while producing and publishing the shorter, discrete poems often associated with his late career, Ashbery continued to practice the long-form, project-based writing that has long been an important element of his oeuvre. JOHN ASHBERY (1927–2017) wrote more than twenty books of poetry, including the award-winning Self-Portrait in a Convex Mirror. He received the Medal for Distinguished Contribution to American Letters and a National Humanities Medal.

This is the rst posthumous collection from a man whose death was a major loss in the poetry world It’s unusual to have a view of Ashbery's extraordinary mind at work over the course of longer works, taking on big subjects with his usual inventiveness and linguistic ingenuity

This biography reveals the man and the facets of his unusual life that have made him a legend, from his childhood growing up in the Middle East as the son of academics, to the tragedy of his father’s murder by terrorists; the inauspicious years of his early career; his championship-winning seasons with the Chicago Bulls and Antonio Spurs; and his success as head coach of the Golden State Warriors, leading the team to the NBA title in his rst year and adding two more championships in the next four seasons.
