Olive Kitteridge / Olive Again
Elizabeth Strout
Olive herself has always been certain that she is 100% correct about everything - although, lately, her certitude has been shaken. This indomitable character appears at the centre of these narratives that comprise Olive Kitteridge. In each of them, we watch Olive, a retired schoolteacher, as she struggles to make sense of the changes in her life and the lives of those around her - always with brutal honesty, if sometimes painfully. Olive Again [Hardcover]: Olive, Again follows the blunt, contradictory yet deeply loveable Olive Kitteridge as she grows older, navigating the second half of her life as she comes to terms with the changes - sometimes welcome, sometimes not - in her own existence and in those around her. Olive adjusts to her new life with her second husband, challenges her estranged son and his family to accept him, experiences loss and loneliness, witnesses the triumphs and heartbreaks of her friends and neighbours in the small coastal town of Crosby, Maine - and, finally, opens herself to new lessons about life.

Ignore the Fear: One woman's paddleboarding adventure, 800 miles from Land's End to John O'Groats with a fear of the sea
Fiona Quinn - 2019
Yet as a complete beginner, and a terrified one at that, in April 2018 Fiona set out to see if she could stand up paddleboard up the west coast of Britain, 800 miles from Land’s End to John O’Groats (LEJOG). Having walked and cycled LEJOG the year before, something inexplicably compelled her to see if she could turn her previous adventures into a length of Britain triathlon and set three new world records. Along the way Fiona was joined by dolphins, paddled 40 miles across the Irish Sea, and battled past whirlpools. This inspiring and gripping account shows that no matter what the odds, if you dare to start before you’re ready, anything is possible. "Fiona’s stand up paddleboard adventure certainly tested her to the limits. Having had a bad experience in water when she was a child, and then to put herself in a situation that pushes on that fear, week after week, is no mean feat. Along the way she lost sight of shore to paddle across the Irish Sea, becoming the first woman to do so. Through all of the challenges she faced, it was her belief in herself and those around her that enabled her to keep moving forwards." - Sean Conway Fiona Quinn is a keynote speaker, endurance adventurer and entrepreneur. Sharing stories with everyone from school children to business executives, she enthusiastically invites you to change your view of what’s possible.

Continue the exciting adventure and magical intrigue of The Unstoppable Liv Beaufont with books 5 - 8 in this Urban Fantasy series today!
The Loyal Friend:
The truth would change everything.
But no one knows it.
Except for Liv Beaufont and those who have been hiding it for centuries.
Fueled to uncover the facts and restore the House of Seven to what it’s supposed to be, Liv starts searching for resources. However, the Council has different plans for her. They put her on a case that is sure to keep her busy…if not get her killed.
Werewolves are real. And they have their own secrets.
Liv ventures to the village where werewolves originated and learns who she can trust and who needs to be taken out. But doing so won’t be easy.
And just when Liv thinks she’s finally conquered evil, an old nemesis comes back to haunt her.
The Stubborn Advocate:
Some people won’t rest until they get to the bottom of things.
That’s Liv Beaufont.
And some want to kill her for her persistence.
To try and keep Liv from finding out the truth, Adler brings back an ancient evil that the Warriors exterminated long ago. Now, alone, Liv will have to battle monsters so dark, they frighten even the strongest magical creatures.
But she can’t be deterred from her quest for the truth.
While trying to take down evil beasts, Liv also works to uncover why mortals can’t see magic. Her journey takes her to the last place she wants to go: where her parents died.
What she finds, changes everything.
The Unrelenting Fighter:
When saving the world is your job, it’s impossible to get a day off.
Liv Beaufont wouldn’t want one anyway.
It’s a good thing because being Father Time’s only employee is demanding.
Liv can hardly believe she has to carry a chicken around while fighting villains. However, the chicken is supremely important. She just doesn’t know how. Or what the bird wants to eat…
And then there’s Sophia’s dragon egg.
Whoever stole it is going to pay big time when Liv gets ahold of them. In the meantime, Subner helps Liv to track down the elf who made Inexorabilis. Unlocking the memories Liv’s mother sealed into the sword is crucial.
What she finds is supposed to change everything.
Mortals have never been more at risk.
Adler Sinclair wants them gone, once and for all.
However, there’s a long list of things Liv Beaufont won’t allow to happen.
First, mortals can’t die. Secondly, the brainwashing has to stop. And thirdly, the person who killed her family is going to pay. Badly.
The stakes have never been higher.
