Text Me Maybe

"One wrong number. Two stubborn hearts. And a whole lot of texts in between. Scarlett Simmons apologizes for everything. For existing, for speaking up, for accidentally dousing grumpy British football managers in scalding coffee. Her therapist says it's a problem. Her ex said she was 'too much.' So when she lands in Manchester to resurrect England's worst football club from PR hell, she's determined to be less . . . herself. Except she can't seem to stop clashing with Theo Ross, the club's infuriatingly proper manager who wears ties like armor and treats her American optimism like a personal offense. He's all cool professionalism and withering glances. She's all big ideas and nervous necklace-fiddling. They're a disaster. But then there's the mystery man she's been texting since she landed. A wrong number that turned into late-night conversations, random questions about eye color and neckties, and a connection so easy it makes her forget to apologize. With him, she's not too much. She's exactly enough. As the football season heats up and the stakes get higher, Scarlett finds herself caught between the job that could make her career and the feelings that could break her heart. Because sometimes the most complicated plays happen off the field."

"For readers of The Body Keeps the Score and What Happened to You?, trauma-informed practitioner and Instagram phenomenon 'The Workout Witch', Liz Tenuto presents the ultimate guide to using somatic exercises to release tension, regulate the nervous system and facilitate healing, drawing on her fifteen years of experience teaching somatic healing. Liz Tenuto's When the Body Speaks is a comprehensive guide to understanding how trauma and stress are stored within the body - and how somatic exercises can provide a powerful tool for healing.

Written as an easy-to-digest primer, Tenuto explains the science of somatics, while offering simple, fully illustrated exercises to release tension through somatic practice. Long-term stress and unresolved trauma can manifest in a host of ways - sleep issues, fatigue, muscle tension, digestive problems, cognitive difficulties, and numerous psychological conditions. By focusing on the body's innate capacity to heal, Tenuto teaches readers how to use movement to address these issues, allowing the nervous system to move from dysregulation to a state of homeostasis. A survivor of childhood and adolescent trauma, Liz Tenuto began struggling with ailments like chronic pain and insomnia. After visiting doctor after doctor, she decided to learn more about somatic exercises - and it changed her life. Twenty years later, Liz is a trauma-informed practitioner with degrees in psychology and somatics, with millions of followers around the world. In her first book, Liz offers not only practical exercises and a deeper understanding of how the mind and body interact, but a pathway for self-compassion, empowerment and a more fulfilling life."

Treating Traumatic Loss: A Clinician's Guide to Helping Clients Cope with a Sudden, Violent, or Difficult Death Using the GRIEF Approach

"Although grief and feelings of loss after the death of a loved one are natural and universal experiences, sudden, violent, and traumatic loss puts survivors at increased risk for a range of mental health problems and greatly complicates the grieving process. The Grief Recovery with Individualized Evidence-Based Formulation (GRIEF) approach is designed specifically for treating individuals suffering from the grief that results from a traumatic death, and provides a transdiagnostic, modular, and comprehensive framework to target the common underlying symptoms of PTSD, depression, and prolonged grief disorder (PGD). Treating Traumatic Loss starts with an introduction to traumatic loss and the GRIEF approach model, then guides you, step by step, through treatment planning—from conducting a thorough assessment of symptoms informed by a multicultural lens, to selecting modules for intervention. A chapter dedicated to each of eight modules provides recommendations on how to perform intervention techniques in your practice. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), experiential, and narrative practices and strategies from both the trauma and grief fields are synthesized into one module-based approach that addresses the unique needs of your clients—providing a powerful, flexible, and individualized way to improve treatment outcomes."

Toil and Trouble

"Double double, toil and trouble . . . Bella Jordan faces ghosts, witches, and a very real foe in the new installment of New York Times bestseller Wendy Corsi Staub’s heart-warming cozy mystery series set in Lily Dale, New York’s Spiritualist home. A relative newcomer to Lily Dale, the quirky New York lakeside village populated by spiritual mediums, young widow Bella Jordan doesn’t have time to believe in supernatural entities. She has enough to tackle, what with running Valley View guesthouse, wrangling her seven-year-old son Max and their growing army of pets, and dealing with her lovable but meddlesome neighbors. So when Pandora Feeney, Valley View’s highly eccentric – and reputedly highly psychic – owner, portentously predicts that something wicked this way comes, Bella’s more worried about the fact that Pandora’s announced she plans to move back into the guesthouse than about approaching danger. Besides, the local theatre is putting on a performance of Macbeth, so it’s no wonder that sorcery and black magic are in the air. Lily Dale is safe. Bella’s sure of it. Even if one of her female guests at Valley View is setting her oddly on edge and Max is seeing witches behind every corner. Little does Bella know that a storm is coming, with the power to blow her life, and Max’s, right off course . . . or far, far worse. This charming, characterful cozy mystery series, which invites readers to draw their own conclusions on whether or not ghosts are real, is a great choice for fans of Charmed, The Good Witch, and cozy paranormal mystery series like The Vampire Knitting Club, the Bailey Ruth Ghost novels and Charlaine Harris' Harper Connelly mysteries."

A Grotesque Animal

"At the age of forty-three, Amy Lee Lillard learned she was autistic. She learned she was part of a community of unseen women who fell through the gaps due to medical bias and social stereotypes. A Grotesque Animal explores the making, unmaking, and making again of a woman with an undiagnosed disorder. How did a working-class background and a deep-rooted Midwest culture of silence lead to hiding in plain sight for decades? How did sexuality and anger hide the roots of trauma among the women in her family? And what does it mean to be a queer, disabled, aging woman, a descendant of wild but tamed mothers and a survivor of the things patriarchy inflicts? Through wide-ranging styles and a combination of personal storytelling and cultural analysis, Lillard dissects anger, sexuality, autistic masking, bodies, punk, and female annihilation to create a new picture of modern women."
