Book Description
In this paradigm-shifting dating guide, love and dating expert, Crista Beck shows us how to stop Hollywood and Disney from ruining our love lives so we can find love in real life. For decades, we’ve been told that love just magically happens when we least expect it. “How’s love going to happen for you if you’re just sitting on the couch watching Netflix?”, Crista Beck says. “Let’s be honest, love is not happening for you because you believe the societal fantasies about dating and relationships.” Beck doesn’t sugar coat the reasons why we are still single. She tells it like it is - a strong dose of raw and honest truth that is sorely lacking today. Break The Glass Slipper is her antidote to the myths about the process of dating that have infected modern society and the minds of single women, sabotaging our ability to attract a healthy and happy long-term relationship. Beck makes the argument, backed by her 10+ years working with single women seeking men, that improving our love lives hinges on our ability to let go of these outdated mindsets that are preventing us from receiving our future partner into our life. Once we distinguish the fairy tales we have been telling ourselves about love, we can then choose a new path (based on reality), and find a real connection with a quality man that can evolve into a long-term relationship. This much-needed dating advice, Break The Glass Slipper is a refreshing and powerful nudge for a generation to break our own glass slippers and lead healthy and powerful love lives.

Book Description
It’s time to fight back in this second novel in a thrilling, subversive near future series from New York Times bestselling author Suzanne Young about a girls-only private high school that is far more than it appears to be. Make me a girl with a razor heart… It’s been weeks since Mena and the other girls of Innovations Academy escaped their elite boarding school. Although traumatized by the violence and experimentations that occurred there, Mena quickly discovers that the outside world can be just as unwelcoming and cruel. With no one else to turn to, the girls only have each other—and the revenge-fueled desire to shut down the corporation that imprisoned them. The girls enroll in Ridgeview Prep, a private school with suspect connections to Innovations, to identify the son of an investor and take down the corporation from the inside. But with pressure from Leandra, who revealed herself to be a double-agent, and Winston Weeks, an academy investor gone rogue, Mena wonders if she and her friends are simply trading one form of control for another. Not to mention the woman who is quite literally invading Mena’s thoughts—a woman with extreme ideas that both frighten and intrigue Mena. And as the girls fight for freedom from their past—and freedom for the girls still at Innovations—they must also face new questions about their existence…and what it means to be girls with razor hearts.

Book Description
The second book in the Sisters Ever After series of fairy tale retellings from the point of view of the siblings in the background, this is the thrilling story of Cinderella's never-before-mentioned third "evil" step-sister, Tirza. Meet Cinderella’s third “wicked” stepsister, Tirza. For years, Tirza has lived with the shame of what her family did to Cinderella. Against everyone’s advice, Cinderella—now Queen Ella—took a chance on young Tirza. She gave Tirza a home in the castle instead of banishing her. The queen told everyone Tirza was good and kind, not cruel like her older sisters. But now Queen Ella’s famous glass slippers are missing, and there’s only one suspect. . . . Tirza may have tried them on . . . but she didn’t steal them. Now she must find the true thief before she loses her royal home. But as Tirza gets closer to the truth, she finds herself getting closer to something else: her sisters, who might not be quite as evil as Cinderella claims.

Cinderella and the Glass Ceiling

Author: Laura Lane
Publisher: Seal Press
ISBN: 1580059058
Category : Humor
Languages : en
Pages : 96

Book Description
This wickedly wise (and wisecracking) parody of classic fairy tales redefines happily ever after for the modern feminist era. You know what? It's super creepy to kiss a woman who is unconscious. And you know what else? The way out of poverty isn't by marrying a rich dude -- or by wearing fragile footwear, for that matter. And while we're at it, why is the only woman who lives with seven men expected to do the cooking, cleaning, and laundry? Fairytales need a reboot, and comedy queens Laura Lane and Ellen Haun are the women to do it. In Cinderella and the Glass Ceiling, they offer a rollicking parody of classic (read: patriarchal) tales that turns sweet, submissive princesses into women who are perfectly capable of being the heroes of their own stories. Mulan climbs the ranks in the army but wages a different war when she finds out she's getting paid less than her fellow male captains, Wendy learns never to trust a man-boy stalking her window, Sleeping Beauty's prince gets a lesson in consent, and more. Busting with laugh-out-loud, razor-sharp twists to these outdated tales, Cinderella and the Glass Ceiling is fun, magical, necessary, and totally woke.
