    The Other PassengerThe Other Passenger by Louise Candlish

    Over 9,000 5-Star Reviews!

    The “queen of the sucker-punch twist” weaves an unputdownable page-turner about a commuter who becomes a suspect in his friend’s mysterious disappearance.

    It all happens so quickly. One day you’re living the dream, commuting to work by ferry with your charismatic neighbor Kit in the seat beside you. The next, Kit hasn’t turned up for the boat and his wife, Melia, has reported him missing.

    When you get off at your stop, the police are waiting. Another passenger saw you and Kit arguing on the boat home the night before and the police say that you had a reason to want him dead. You protest. You and Kit are friends—ask Melia, she’ll vouch for you. And who exactly is this other passenger pointing the finger? What do they know about your lives?

    No, whatever danger followed you home last night, you are innocent, totally innocent.

    Aren’t you?

    Invisible Women: Data Bias in a World Designed for MenInvisible Women: Data Bias in a World Designed for Men by Caroline Criado Perez

    ⭐ Reader Recommended ⭐
    Over 8,000 5-Star Reviews

    Caroline Criado Perez’s Invisible Women is a landmark, prize-winning, international bestselling examination of how a gender gap in data perpetuates bias and disadvantages women.

    Data is fundamental to the modern world. From economic development, to healthcare, to education and public policy, we rely on numbers to allocate resources and make crucial decisions. But because so much data fails to take into account gender, because it treats men as the default and women as atypical, bias and discrimination are baked into our systems. And women pay tremendous costs for this bias, in time, money, and often with their lives.

    Celebrated feminist advocate Caroline Criado Perez investigates shocking root cause of gender inequality and research in Invisible Women†‹, diving into women’s lives at home, the workplace, the public square, the doctor’s office, and more. Built on hundreds of studies in the US, the UK, and around the world, and written with energy, wit, and sparkling intelligence, this is a groundbreaking, unforgettable exposé that will change the way you look at the world.

    A place of welcome and warmth, of friends old and new. Watch three women discover how knitting can change their lives in this beloved Blossom Street novel from #1 New York Times bestselling author Debbie Macomber.

    Lydia Hoffman owns a knitting shop on Seattle’s Blossom Street. In the year since it opened, A Good Yarn has thrived—and so has Lydia. A lot of that is due to Brad Goetz. But when Brad’s ex-wife reappears, Lydia is suddenly afraid to trust her newfound happiness.

    Three women join Lydia’s newest class. Elise Beaumont, retired and bitterly divorced, learns that her onetime husband is reentering her life. Bethanne Hamlin is facing the fallout from a much more recent divorce. And Courtney Pulanski is a depressed teenager, whose grandmother’s idea of helping her is to drag her to seniors’ swim sessions—and to the knitting class at A Good Yarn.

    The shop is a place of welcome and warmth, of friends old and new. Watch three women discover how knitting can change their lives.
