![]() ![]() ![]() The first of Loretta Lynn’s songs to top the Billboard country charts came with this feisty offering about a woman who was tired of her husband wanting to get romantic when he was intoxicated. "Don’t Come Home A-Drinkin’ (With Lovin’ on Your Mind)" (1967). ![]() But, perhaps the most interesting performance of this song goes to Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, who recorded it as an extra for the 2005 film Be Cool. The Grateful Dead performed it in concert during the early 1970s, and Martina McBride paid homage to Lynn with a cover on her 2005 album Timeless. This song of warning to another woman who had designs on the singer’s man - inspired by a real-life incident - has become one of the most covered of Lynn’s songs over the years. “You Ain’t Woman Enough (to Take My Man)” (1966).Fifteen years later, Emmylou Harris lovingly tipped her hat to Lynn with a faithful hit cover of this timeless tune. While the majority of classic Loretta Lynn songs flowed from her own pen, this aching song of loneliness – from her 1964 album Songs From My Heart - features the songwriting credit of Johnny Mullins. ![]() ![]() ![]() From making her way to Los Angeles in the 1950s to her decision to leave show business in the '80s, and, of course, the seven husbands along the way, Evelyn unspools a tale of ruthless ambition, unexpected friendship, and a great forbidden love. Summoned to Evelyn's luxurious apartment, Monique listens in fascination as the actress tells her story. Regardless of why Evelyn has selected her to write her biography, Monique is determined to use this opportunity to jumpstart her career. Her husband has left her, and her professional life is going nowhere. Monique is not exactly on top of the world. ![]() ![]() But when she chooses unknown magazine reporter Monique Grant for the job, no one is more astounded than Monique herself. From the author of Daisy Jones & The Six-an entrancing novel "that speaks to the Marilyn Monroe and Elizabeth Taylor in us all" (Kirkus Reviews), in which a legendary film actress reflects on her relentless rise to the top and the risks she took, the loves she lost, and the long-held secrets the public could never imagine.Īging and reclusive Hollywood movie icon Evelyn Hugo is finally ready to tell the truth about her glamorous and scandalous life. ![]() ![]() The story has broad appeal, making it a great first purchase. ![]() "n expert debut." - Publishers Weekly (starred review) With perfect comic pacing, bold color and dynamic sense of design, three-time Theodor Seuss Geisel Award recipient Greg Pizzoli's picture book debut transforms this familiar childhood anxiety into a contemporary classic read-aloud perfect for fans of I Want My Hat Back.

Told in the first-person perspective of Amra Thetys, a professional thief with a surprisingly honorable reputation, Michael McClung’s opening book in the Amra Thetys series is fueled by the voice of its protagonist, which reminds me of the titular voice from Francis Knight’s Rojan Dizon novels. Instead, it’s a straight-forward adventure noir featuring a touch of action, a bit of mystery and a wealth of interesting characters. At 210 pages, The Thief Who Pulled on Trouble’s Braids isn’t trying to be the next bookshelf-bending epic fantasy that changes the way you think about the genre. ![]() ![]() ![]() Join the demigods as they face their biggest challenges yet in The House of Hades, the hair-raising penultimate book in the best-selling Heroes of Olympus series.

Indeed, people often blow their tops if the subject is even broached. Tawney's perception, in his book Equality(1931): "The word 'class' is fraught with unpleasing associations, so that to linger upon it is apt to be interpreted as the symptom of a perverted mind and a jaundiced spirit."Įspecially in America, where the idea of class is notably embarrassing. It is as if I had said, "I am working on a book urging the beating to death of baby whales using the dead bodies of baby seals." Since I have been writing this book I have experienced many times the awful truth of R. It is not just that I am feared as a class spy. Then, a few minutes later, they silently get up and walk away. ![]() When, recently, asked what I am writing, I have answered, "A book about social class in America," people tend first to straighten their ties and sneak a glance at their cuffs to see how far fraying has advanced there. You can outrage people today simply by mentioning social class, very much the way, sipping tea among the aspidistras a century ago, you could silence a party by adverting too openly to sex. Although most Americans sense that they live within an extremely complicated system of social classes and suspect that much of what is thought and done here is prompted by considerations of status, the subject has remained murky. ![]() ![]() But even I found Mabel and Jack’s plight heartbreaking and rushed to find out exactly what was going on with the little snow girl. ![]() I enjoyed this but as a woman who has chosen not to have children, I don’t think it speaks to me the same way it speaks to mothers or those who long to hold little ones in their arms. Imagine their astonishment when they find that the snow girl has vanished overnight and small footprints lead away into the woods. When the first snowstorm of the season arrives, Jack and Mabel playfully build a snow girl, complete with coat, mittens, and a sweet smile. Mabel’s broken heart can’t tolerate being around her siblings and their large families any longer so she and Jack decide to move to Alaska.īut life is still hard in Alaska, especially during the long, dark winters. But the years passed and they had only one stillborn child.

With Us and Pet Sematary blowing up theaters, everyone has horror on the brain right now. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() However, with 'Great Expectations', Dickens does this with a soft touch. You can't have a Dickens novel without a little bit of melodrama and a bit of Victorian moralizing. Wemmick and the Aged Parent (the Aged P.) could be the center of their own Dickens novel each life is given a warmth (or where there lacks warmth, a round coldness) that keeps the novel propelled on. Everyone from Uncle Pumblechook, Miss Havisham, & Mr Jaggers, to Mr. I think a significant part of the magic, for me, of 'Great Expectations' is found in the minor characters. I love how with 100 pages left you can almost feel the universe shift as Dickens grabs the crazy, once loose strings of his moral narrative and begins to pull it all together. 'Great Expectations' is one more of Dickens' absolute masterpieces. There are many parts of Dickens' writing that I love and few pieces of his that fall short of complete adoration. ![]() |
