Bookshelves in the Age of the COVID-19 Pandemic provides the first detailed scholarly investigation of the cultural phenomenon of bookshelves (and the social practices around them) since the start of the pandemic in March 2020. With a foreword by Lydia Pyne, author of Bookshelf (2016), the volume brings together 17 scholars from 6 countries (Australia, Canada, Germany, the Netherlands, the UK, and the USA) with expertise in literary studies, book history, publishing, visual arts, and pedagogy to critically examine the role of bookshelves during the current pandemic. This volume interrogates the complex relationship between the physical book and its digital manifestation via online platforms, a relationship brought to widespread public and scholarly attention by the global shift to working from home and the rise of online pedagogy. It also goes beyond the (digital) bookshelf to consider bookselling, book accessibility, and pandemic reading habits.

REVISED with NEW COVER!! My rules were created so I'd have control and be able to remove any and all elements of emotion when it comes to men — when it comes to relationships, period. There's no need to let them in my heart, just in my pants for the night to satisfy my itch. Temptation reared it's ugly head and won— I've broken a rule — one of my rules. No big deal, right? Then, why do I want to do it again? It's just sex. Yes. It's just sex, that's all. As long as Joe knows that it's just sex, I don't mind bending the rules. Will Emma continue to allow her fear of loss to control her life, or does love play by its own set of rules? Please note: There are sexually explicit scenes F/M and F/F/M This book is NOT a standalone and is meant to be read after reading the first book Breathe In of the Just Breathe series.
