Dare to be Rare is an American phrase that means 'dare to be different', or more freely translated perhaps, 'be yourself' - the person that God created you to be. Don't let the Americanisms put you off from what should be a rewarding book for younger women - an underpublished area in Christian terms. Taking Romans 12.2 as its inspiration, "Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, you may prove the will of God, what which is good, acceptable and perfect", the book dares women to explore critical issues in their lives such as self-esteem, courage, honesty, identity through the lens of scripture and experience, and offers the positive message that we are all loved and valued by God. The author is certainly someone that dares to be rare. She is also a woman of faith and courage who has overcome cancer and still finds time to preach the Word and raise a family. This book is great for personal use, but perhaps ideally suited for small groups that can be formed from fellow church goers. Go on, give this book a try and you too can "Dare to be Rare!"

Someone definitely wants to keep her away from Jake. Is it a jealous classmate or, as Abby begins to suspect, could it be a ghost?

Daniel is 35, successful, a high level professional and an accomplished academic - yet he is also a virgin, who fears that he will spend the rest of his life alone. More importantly, Daniel has existed in an emotional bubble all of his life, and has had no intimate friendships. In other words, he is not fully alive, and seeks psychotherapy because he is haunted by not understanding what is wrong with him. He is attractive to women, yet as soon as a woman tries to get close to him, he runs away. Lacking an inner foundation, he fears that women will annihilate him, like his overbearing mother who abused him as a child. Quite simply, this book is an unprecedented achievement, taking the reader into actual psychoanalytic sessions and sharing with the reader Michael Shoshani Rosenbaum’s dialogues with Daniel, vividly illustrating his pain and struggle to transcend his existential plight. Furthermore, as the author of two sections of the book, Daniel himself provides a rare, insightful view from the other side of the couch, illuminating the challenge and change experienced within the other half of the therapeutic relationship. It is a compelling psychological adventure, fusing together the intimacy of the therapy with an account of the revolutionary changes that have occurred in the practice of psychotherapy and psychoanalysis over the last decades. Daniel is like no one else, and yet he is everyone, making this book a must for every person searching for self-knowledge, allowing the reader to identify with Daniel and his struggle to become human.

From the award-winning author of The Turnout and Give Me Your Hand: the searing novel of friendship and betrayal that inspired the USA Network series, praised by Gillian Flynn as "Lord of the Flies set in a high-school cheerleading squad...Tense, dark, and beautifully written." Addy Hanlon has always been Beth Cassidy's best friend and trusted lieutenant. Beth calls the shots and Addy carries them out, a long-established order of things that has brought them to the pinnacle of their high-school careers. Now they're seniors who rule the intensely competitive cheer squad, feared and followed by the other girls -- until the young new coach arrives. Cool and commanding, an emissary from the adult world just beyond their reach, Coach Colette French draws Addy and the other cheerleaders into her life. Only Beth, unsettled by the new regime, remains outside Coach's golden circle, waging a subtle but vicious campaign to regain her position as "top girl" -- both with the team and with Addy herself. Then a suicide focuses a police investigation on Coach and her squad. After the first wave of shock and grief, Addy tries to uncover the truth behind the death -- and learns that the boundary between loyalty and love can be dangerous terrain. The raw passions of girlhood are brought to life in this taut, unflinching exploration of friendship, ambition, and power. Award-winning novelist Megan Abbott, writing with what Tom Perrotta has hailed as "total authority and an almost desperate intensity," provides a harrowing glimpse into the dark heart of the all-American girl.

A moving, often very funny graphic memoir about what it is like to grow up with an illness that no one can diagnose. When the headaches started, Sarah Lippett would stand alone on a different side of the playground from the other children. When she started to drag one of her legs, her parents took her to hospital, and so began the visits to many different doctors, each one more bewildered by her illness than the last. Initially schooled at home, when Sarah went back to school she was placed with the struggling kids, and still so often ill, she felt even more alone. But although Sarah's parents often despaired of the stream of appointments and no cure, they never showed it and she grew up in the midst of a boisterous, loving family and found good friends at last, as well as venturing into bands, art, boys, books and records. Finally, when Sarah turned sixteen, she was admitted to Great Ormond Street Hospital where the doctors diagnosed her with the rare disease, Moyamoya. The book ends with Sarah waking up after brain surgery.

For centuries, women have been conditioned to stay in the background and remain passive, so that we do not intimidate our partners or men in general. The advice we are given is centered on how to be "a good wife." We have internalized disempowerment and shame; we are told that if we push back, if we stand up for ourselves, we are unlovable-and that we can't do it on our own. But it's time for that to change. Now is the time for women to step into and own our power. It's time to take up space and claim who we are and what we deserve. Men and women should support and take care of one another-it shouldn't be women's responsibility to be the caretakers and silent support. With candor and clarity, this book addresses the fundamental truths that many are already thinking but may be afraid to speak about. Regardless of your age or background, if you're a woman who wants more from life-this book is for you!
