Mayhem at the Orient Express

By: Kylie Logan

Three amateur sleuths call upon their inner Agatha Christie when murder strikes their small town in the first League of Literary Ladies mystery... Most folks aren’t forced by court order to attend a library-book discussion group, but that’s just what happens to B & B proprietor and ex-Manhattanite Bea Cartwright, hippy cat lover Chandra Morrisey, and winery owner Kate Wilder after a small-town magistrate has had enough of their squabbling. South Bass, an island on Lake Erie, is home to an idyllic summer resort, but these three ladies keep disturbing the peace. The initial book choice is Agatha Christie’s Murder on the Orient Express, and that sets their mouths to watering. The Orient Express is the island’s newest Chinese restaurant. They might not agree about much, but the ladies all love the orange chicken on the menu. But their meal is spoiled when the restaurant’s owner, Peter Chan, has the bad fortune of getting murdered. Now, with Christie as their inspiration, the League of Literary Ladies has a real mystery to solve...if they can somehow catch a killer without killing each other first.

The Undeniable Truth about Food

A Phases Approach to Making Changes That Makes a Real Difference to You and the Planet

By: Kylie Floate BSc. (Nutrition)

Australian nutritionist Kylie Floate has written a must-read, information-packed book The Undeniable TRUTH About Food: A PHASES approach to making CHANGES that makes a REAL difference to YOU and the PLANET. Her book reveals the harsh reality of our food supply, including how it's produced, what's added, and what it's doing to us. Kylie provides a "phases" approach to making sustainable changes that will make a big difference in our health and for our planet. Kylie's journey began a decade ago when she was studying nutrition at university, giving her a solid foundation of knowledge. However, it was the incorrect diagnosis of her eldest daughter with juvenile bipolar disorder that fuelled her desire to dig deeper into the current practises of the food industry. She found that the more she researched, the more she uncovered. Besides eating healthy and avoiding food additives, she has plenty more to say. The Undeniable TRUTH About FOOD contains vital information about: Individual body requirements Factors affecting food intake Chronic diseases Food additives Food production Food legislation The Western diet Environmental impact Food integrity Kylie believes that consumers are more powerful than they realise, and that they have a real opportunity to assert for change in the food industry. The mother of four, Kylie Floate is a nutritionist and occasional school teacher living in rural Western Australia. Coming soon is her next book, The Ultimate Supermarket Handbook, a comprehensive supermarket resource that rates and reviews grocery items. http: //SBPRA.com/KylieFloate

Art After Instagram

Art Spaces, Audiences, Aesthetics

By: Lachlan MacDowall,Kylie Budge

This book explores the effects of the Instagram platform on the making and viewing of art. Authors Lachlan MacDowall and Kylie Budge critically analyse the ways Instagram has influenced artists, art spaces, art institutions and art audiences, and ultimately contemporary aesthetic experience. The book argues that more than simply being a container for digital photography, the architecture of Instagram represents a new relationship to the image and to visual experience, a way of shaping ocular habits and social relations. Following a detailed analysis of the structure of Instagram – the tactile world of affiliation (‘follows’), aesthetics (‘likes’) and attention (‘comments’) – the book examines how art spaces, audiences and aesthetics are key to understanding its rise. The book will be of interest to scholars working in art history, design, digital culture, cultural studies, sociology, education, business, media and communication studies.

Feminism, Labour and Digital Media

Feminism, Labour and Digital Media

The Digital Housewife

By: Kylie Jarrett

There is a contradiction at the heart of digital media. We use commercial platforms to express our identity, to build community and to engage politically. At the same time, our status updates, tweets, videos, photographs and music files are free content for these sites. We are also generating an almost endless supply of user data that can be mined, re-purposed and sold to advertisers. As users of the commercial web, we are socially and creatively engaged, but also labourers, exploited by the companies that provide our communication platforms. How do we reconcile these contradictions? Feminism, Labour and Digital Media argues for using the work of Marxist feminist theorists about the role of domestic work in capitalism to explore these competing dynamics of consumer labour. It uses the concept of the Digital Housewife to outline the relationship between the work we do online and the unpaid sphere of social reproduction. It demonstrates how feminist perspectives expand our critique of consumer labour in digital media. In doing so, the Digital Housewife returns feminist inquiry from the margins and places it at the heart of critical digital media analysis.

And Then There Were Nuns

By: Kylie Logan

The national bestselling author of Gone with the Twins returns to South Bass Island, where the League of Literary Ladies has to find out who’s killing off nuns. B and B owner Bea Cartwright has taken on the responsibility of taking meals to ten visiting nuns, who are on retreat at the Water’s Edge Center for Spirit and Renewal on picturesque South Bass Island on Lake Erie. But the peace of the retreat is shattered when one of the nuns is found at the water’s edge—murdered. And when a second nun is killed, Bea and the other members of the League of Literary Ladies—Chandra, Kate, and Luella—start to wonder about eerie parallels with the Agatha Christie mystery classic, And Then There Were None. Since Bea has the trust of the sisters, the local chief of police asks her and the other Literary Ladies to interview each of them. Expecting a confession may be asking for a miracle, but Bea hopes she can at least find the killer before another nun gets crossed off the guest list...

Survivor Injustice

State-Sanctioned Abuse, Domestic Violence, and the Fight for Bodily Autonomy

By: Kylie Cheung

Journalist and Jezebel staff writer Kylie Cheung exposes the insidious--and often unseen--connections among domestic abuse, state-based violence, political disenfranchisement, and the carceral state. "An astonishingly original, powerfully honest vision for true survivor justice." —Kirkus, starred review For readers of The Revolution Starts at Home, Feminism for the 99%, and Good and Mad. Incisive, urgent, and written exactly for our post-Roe times, Survivor Injustice is the feminist frame-changing read we need now--for each of us, and for all that’s at stake. With an abolitionist lens, journalist and Jezebel staff writer Kylie Cheung shows how domestic abuse and state violence are systemic and interconnected. She shatters the harmful and convenient narrative that abuse is a “private matter” perpetrated by individual bad actors--and situates popular understandings of domestic abuse in an indictment of the racism, misogyny, and carcerality baked into U.S. culture and politics. Cheung explores: The links between capitalism and domestic abuse: how late-stage capitalism colludes with the state to incentivize forced birth and reproductive coercion Intimate partner violence as a tool of political silence and social control America’s tacit acceptance of sexual assault, from the home to the White House The interplay of race, power, gender, and sexuality in state-based violence How the United States runs on carcerality, and what that means for victims The way we view survival crimes, and our complicity in defining which acts are “violent” and whose actions are “criminal” How white feminism and carceral feminism fail us all Cheung plainly names all that goes unsaid when we, as a culture, talk about abuse: How state and society criminalize women, girls, and gender-oppressed people of color. That what happens behind closed doors affects whose voices we hear at the ballot box. What it means when we put predators--from every party--up for vote. That sex workers are more likely to be victimized by law enforcement than “saved” by them. That this is all by design. And that ultimately--with organizing, abolition, and beyond-the-ballot action--we can change it all for good.

Heaven to Wudang

Journey to Wudang: Book Three

By: Kylie Chan

Human and demon, heaven and hell, battle for the fate of the world . . . The demons that could control stones and elementals have been defeated, but the most powerful of Simon Wong’s associates still remains to create almost undetectable copies of humans and Shen. This demon allies with Kitty Kwok to prepare a torturous trap for Emma and Simone, from which they may never return. Wudang Mountain is enveloped by dark foreboding as Xuan Wu begins to reappear—sometimes human, sometimes turtle, but always without memory. Emma and Simone are in a race against time as they try to rescue Xuan Wu . . . before the demons capture him.
