I’ve not really read much dark romance, so I picked a few easy kindle reads from this list to try and this was one of the ones that came up on multiple lists.

In the most comprehensive and definitive book on Heaven to date, Randy invites you to picture Heaven the way Scripture describes it-a bright, vibrant, and physical New Earth, free from sin, suffering, and death, and brimming with Christ’s presence, wondrous natural beauty, and the richness of human culture as God intended it.

Except for when it leaves us feeling enraged, gaslighted, and exhausted.Īt least we have Angela Garbes, whose newest book, Essential Labor, examines the collective power of mothering and interrogates how individuals can both fight for systemic changes (like affordable quality child care, paid family leave, and comprehensive maternal health care) and reclaim acts of mothering in our own lives. Instead, it’s a nap on a gingham picnic blanket, a stroll through a strawberry patch, a pregnant silhouette at sunset. Social media would have us believe that motherhood is free of messy realities. The actual labor of motherhood (i.e., the kissing of boo-boos the knowing to make the orange, not white, mac and cheese the washing and drying and folding and putting away endless loads of laundry) takes up far less space in our collective imagination than the static imagery of motherhood. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() She is a repeat winner of the Margaret A. ![]() ![]() Her other works include her 1996 debut That Summer and New York Times best-seller Along for the Ride.

Calling her a local writer is only half-accurate: she’s lived in Saudi Arabia, Texas, New Jersey, Iowa, and now, right here in Columbia where, among other things, she runs the Quarry Heights Workshop. Keija has just released her deubt novel, The Ruins of Us, on Harper Perennial. And it is also really wonderful to know that there is a writer here in Columbia not immediately connected to the university, and thriving with her own work. I can’t remember how the conversation started, but we talked for a solid half-hour about … well, a little bit of everything, with that effortless rhythm that happens when I speak to someone genuinely interesting.
