My Skin Don't Fit is 61,000 words of funny and heart-rending story detailing one woman's quest to resolve her physical and spiritual conflicts, told in a refreshingly honest way. Aegina Angeliades knew she'd always struggled with her weight, but until the day she saw a home video of herself at age two devouring a steak and loaf of bread buttered by her own chubby fingers-her proud Greek parents filming the scene-she had no idea when are where her problems started.
My Skin Doesn't Fit my Soul, a pathway inwards in order to deal with the world outside; more of a journey than a destination, more questions than answers. Some hope, fear, love, loss, even borderline hate. A taste of the absurd, an exploit of normalcy, a cry for help, an admiration for animals. In a world of bits and pieces, Susan Joyner-Stumpf confronts the chaos in order to find the wholeness she knows lies deep within the crevices of Earth, and humanity.
Do you know a friend or have a spouse who's getting a little older and could use some ribs tickling? Could you use a perspective-altering, shot-in-the-arm about how to look at the minor aches and pains of going over the hill? For some, getting older is definitely not a laughing matter. For Martha Bolton, however, there's one lesson she's learned that makes aging easier--laughter and longevity go hand-in-hand! Like other top Christian humorists Barbara Johnson and Patsy Clairmont, Bolton's humor is based in a faith that teaches while it makes you laugh. In Didn't My Skin Used to Fit, the message is that life after forty can be as much fun (even more so) than life before forty. When you can't stop the crow's-feet from walking over your face, it's time to laugh about it.

“Grief leads to self-destructive behavior in this searing psychological thriller” from a New York Times–bestselling author (Publishers Weekly). What if the nightmares are actually memories? It’s been a year since Poppy’s husband, Jack, was brutally murdered during his morning run through Manhattan’s Riverside Park. In the immediate aftermath, Poppy spiraled into an oblivion of grief, disappearing for several days only to turn up ragged and confused wearing a tight red dress she didn’t recognize. What happened to Poppy during those lost days? And more importantly, what happened to Jack? The case was never solved, and Poppy has finally begun to move on. But those lost days have never stopped haunting her. Poppy starts having nightmares and blackouts—there are periods of time she can’t remember, and she’s unable to tell the difference between what is real and what she’s imagining. When she begins to sense that someone is following her, Poppy is plunged into a game of cat and mouse, determined to unravel the mystery around her husband’s death. But can she handle the truth about what really happened? “[A] captivating thriller.” —The Washington Post “Addictive. . . .
