Can a girl from a middle-class Irish Catholic family living in Newark, New Jersey, in 1938 find fame and fortune (or even a job) as a radio star? Tune in to this unforgettable historical novel to find out. Poignant, often hilarious, it's the story of a family in crisis. Just as artful deception, smoke and mirrors characterize radio reality, so lies, secrets, and profound misunderstandings mark fourteen-year-old Cece Maloney's life: her secret job at a radio station, a cheating father, an aunt who may be romantically involved with the parish priest, a boy-crazed best friend, and a ham radio operator and would-be soldier both lying to their parents. The worlds collide on the night of Orson Welles's famous "The War of the Worlds" broadcast. As thousands flee in panic from the alleged Martian invasion, Cece must expose the truth about the radio hoax and confront the truth about her own and her family's dishonesty.

Lady A is the most notorious blackmailer in the city. With just a mask and a gown to disguise her, she sweeps into lavish balls and exclusive events collecting the most valuable currency in 1725 London-secrets. But leading a double life isn't easy. By day Lady A is just a seventeen-year-old girl named Arista who lives in fear of her abusive master, Bones, and passes herself off as a boy to move safely through the squalor of London's slums. When Bones attempts to dispose of his pawn forever, Arista is rescued by the last person she expects: Jonathan Wild, an infamous thief who moves seamlessly between the city's criminal underworld and its most elite circles. Arista partners with Wild on her own terms in order to save enough money to buy passage out of London. Everything changes when she meets Grae Sinclair, the son of a wealthy merchant. Grae has traveled the world, seen the exotic lands Arista has longed to escape to her whole life, and he loves Arista for who she is-not for what she can do for him. Being with Grae gives something Arista something precious that she swore off long ago: hope. He has promised to help Arista escape the life of crime that has claimed her since she was a child. But can you ever truly escape the past?

In their twilight years two eighty-something sisters, Esther and Minnie, are coaxed from their easy chairs and their comfort zone of carpet slippers, crochet hooks, jigsaws and jumble sales to fulfill the dying wish of a dear friend. The sisters go an to undertake a road trip of sorts in Esther's beloved classic Trafalgar-blue 1965 Morris Traveller car, affectionately known as 'Vivien.' The trip however is no minor errand to return late library books: theirs turns out to be an epic undertaking of some seven thousand miles from London's Whitechapel to Raipur, deep in the Indian subcontinent, passing through no less than ten countries along the way, including Poland, Russia, China and Tibet. Esther and Minnie's saga of course does not go without the occasional hitch, but the sister's eternal love for one another, and their quintessential innocence and innate kindness, stand them in good stead when they are faced with seemingly insurmountable odds.

Have you ever tried to explain yourself and had others simply just not get it or, worse, tell you that you are just plain crazy? That was what my life was indeed like due to Borderline Personality Disorder. But I am here to say that the faulty thinking process associated with this mental illness can be overridden and that it is indeed possible to learn how to effectively communicate with others. Through psychoanalysis, medication, and self-discovery of the inner personal negative belief system, the resultant concurrent, depression can be managed and somewhat discarded for more healthy ways of interacting with the outside world. It took me approximately seventeen years of therapy to be able to come to this conclusion, and I would just like the other BPDs to understand and believe that this can also happen for them.
