DOWNLOAD EBOOKA brand new edition of the smash-hit play, now a wildly popular CBC TV series. Mr. Kim is a first-generation Korean immigrant and the proud owner of Kim’s Convenience, a variety store located in the heart of downtown Toronto’s Regent Park neighbourhood. As the neighbourhood quickly gentrifies, Mr. Kim is offered a generous sum of money to sell — enough to allow him and his wife to finally retire. But Kim’s Convenience is more than just his livelihood — it is his legacy. As Mr. Kim tries desperately, and hilariously, to convince his daughter Janet, a budding photographer, to take over the store, his wife sneaks out to meet their estranged son Jung, who has not seen or spoken to his father in sixteen years and who has now become a father himself. Wholly original, hysterically funny, and deeply moving, Kim’s Convenience tells the story of one Korean family struggling to face the future amidst the bitter memories of their past.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKShortlisted for the Best Translated Book Award Longlisted for the Believer Book Award Longlisted for the Warwick Prize for Women in Translation A Los Angeles Times Bestseller The English-language debut of an exciting young voice in international fiction, selling 660,000 copies in Japan alone, Convenience Store Woman is a bewitching portrayal of contemporary Japan through the eyes of a single woman who fits into the rigidity of its work culture only too well. The English-language debut of one of Japan’s most talented contemporary writers, selling over 650,000 copies there, Convenience Store Woman is the heartwarming and surprising story of thirty-six-year-old Tokyo resident Keiko Furukura. Keiko has never fit in, neither in her family, nor in school, but when at the age of eighteen she begins working at the Hiiromachi branch of “Smile Mart,” she finds peace and purpose in her life. In the store, unlike anywhere else, she understands the rules of social interaction—many are laid out line by line in the store’s manual—and she does her best to copy the dress, mannerisms, and speech of her colleagues, playing the part of a “normal” person excellently, more or less. Managers come and go, but Keiko stays at the store for eighteen years. It’s almost hard to tell where the store ends and she begins. Keiko is very happy, but the people close to her, from her family to her coworkers, increasingly pressure her to find a husband, and to start a proper career, prompting her to take desperate action… A brilliant depiction of an unusual psyche and a world hidden from view, Convenience Store Woman is an ironic and sharp-eyed look at contemporary work culture and the pressures to conform, as well as a charming and completely fresh portrait of an unforgettable heroine.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis book questions the simplistic view that convenience food is unhealthy and environmentally unsustainable. By exploring how various types of convenience food have become embedded in consumers’ lives, it considers what lessons can be learnt from the commercial success of convenience food for those who seek to promote healthier and more sustainable diets. The project draws on original findings from comparative research in the UK, Denmark, Germany and Sweden (funded through the ERA-Net Sustainable Food programme). Reframing Convenience Food avoids moral judgments about convenience food, and instead provides a refreshingly novel perspective guided by an understanding of everyday consumer practice. It will appeal to those with an interest in the sociology and politics behind health, consumerism, sustainability and society.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK"Lystra, I feel the pull to her too," Jordan spoke up making me fall back to my seat. "I feel the pull to the both of you." The last sentence was a bit softer. "What does that mean?" I wasn't sure if I was shouting or whispering. My body went cold. I felt as if my soul was trying to escape the confinement of my skin, as if I was floating outside my own body, but still glued to the table. "Lystra, you have to understand, you and Noella were once one being. The mate of a twin can feel the connection to both of them." "But do you feel the mate bond, Noella?" I asked my sister who still hadn't let Jordan's hand go. What a fool I was, they both were holding hands not just her. "I feel something more, I love him." She defended. "I love her too." Jordan's words echoed in my head. "She isn't your mate. I am." I argued. "No Lystra, she is my mate. I get to choose. I chose her." I heard him, but the words 'I love her too' in his voice was still repeating in my head. Too much to process with the sound of blood in my head. ***** This is the story of Lystra Miller's life after she was rejected, but before finding that happily ever after. A she-wolf whose mate rejected her for her human sister. In a universe where only one in a set of twins is blessed with the ability to shift, this she-wolf lost her mate to her own human twin. Lystra watches her sister and mate live their epic love story for years, then tries to move on when they give birth to a son. Her life is full of tragic and bittersweet moments, but yes she finds love along the way. She would learn not all choices are good ones, but every choice is one you can decide to live by. She will not be A Mate of Convenience. Not even to her mate when he admits to his mistakes. Learn how she overcomes rejection. **** This is a stand-alone book.
