Description

True History of the Kelly Gang"I lost my own father at 12 yr. of age and know what it is to be raised on lies and silences my dear daughter you are presently too young to understand a word I write but this history is for you and will contain no single lie may I burn in Hell if I speak false." In True History of the Kelly Gang, the legendary Ned Kelly speaks for himself, scribbling his narrative on errant scraps of paper in semiliterate but magically descriptive prose as he flees

"I lost my own father at 12 yr. of age and know what it is to be raised on lies and silences my dear daughter you are presently too young to understand a word I write but this history is for you and will contain no single lie may I burn in Hell if I speak false."

In True History of the Kelly Gang, the legendary Ned Kelly speaks for himself, scribbling his narrative on errant scraps of paper in semiliterate but magically descriptive prose as he flees from the police. To his pursuers, Kelly is nothing but a monstrous criminal, a thief and a murderer. To his own people, the lowly class of ordinary Australians, the bushranger is a hero, defying the authority of the English to direct their lives. Indentured by his bootlegger mother to a famous horse thief (who was also her lover), Ned saw his first prison cell at 15 and by the age of 26 had become the most wanted man in the wild colony of Victoria, taking over whole towns and defying the law until he was finally captured and hanged. Here is a classic outlaw tale, made alive by the skill of a great novelist.

A Place for Us
Format: Kindle
Oh! 15 gold stars for this one! This book is so poignant and so very brave and authentic! This book is a permission for us to choose what we will and will not accept in our relationships. This book is more than hope, this book is determination! Pure driven determination to not settle, but to go to the mat to have our life the way we want we want it. I cannot over recommend this book. Thank you, Patricia Grayhall! Keep writing!

Finding a Home
Format: Paperback
A Place for us is a beautifully crafted and deeply moving love story about two women--one American, one British--who first meet in their youth and reconnect decades later. At its core, the novel portrays their struggle to navigate restrictive immigration laws in pursuit of a life together. Their journey highlights the urgent need to protect and legalize same-sex marriage, especially at a time when such rights feel increasingly precarious. A timely and relevant read.

So good
Format: Paperback
RATING : ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ SPICE: 🔥🔥 Hot damn Hannah did it again .if you want to read more sapphic romance, this one will absolutely blow your mind! Bryce and Daisy were everything I wanted and more! Fake dating will always be the superior trope, but when it’s forced proximity grumpy x sunshine and the grumpy one is secretly head over heels for the sunshine one, well I’m a damn puddle on the floor! I still can’t decide if I loved Bryce or Daisy more, but I do. Know this might just be my favorite book Hannah has ever written. ☀️ Fake Dating ☀️ Grumpy x Sunshine ☀️ Forced Proximity / Roommates ☀️.Tattoo Artist / Teacher ☀️ So much pining I love Bryce so much. She is a total hard shell but she has such a gooey inside and she showed it so well with Daisy. This whole setup was fantastic, Daisy needs a place to stay so Bryce gets volunteered to give up her spare room. Daisy think Bryce doesn’t like her, but then you get to Bryce’s POV and you realize how down bad she has it for Daisy. Then Daisy proposes the fake date and OMG the tension. The longing. The secret tattoos. I loved every bit of these two figuring each other out. Watching Bryce absolutely melt for Daisy was just so so good. This may be a slow burn, but when it burns…. It’s an inferno. And the tattoo parlor scene is imbedded in my brain forever. Just everything about this made me happy and I will forever love Cherry Peak, these characters and this series! Now bring on Darren!

Love them!
Format: Paperback
“Calling Daisy Mitchell mine is a dream that I never planned on coming true but always hoped would.” Gahhh my first FF and I’m hooked! Thank you Hannah! Daisy and Bryce are as opposites as can be, one is pure sunshine and the other is as icy as can be but they couldn’t be more perfect for each other! I love the slow burn with all the sexual tension as they pretend to date while living together. Love the way they take care of each other, the love and admiration so evident in the way they touch and look at each other. Their nicknames for each other is just so cute and perfect! I love these two so much! Such a great addition to the Cherry Peak series! We get more of Johnny, who happens to be Daisy’s twin and I just can’t get enough of him either, he’s just so fun. And of course we get to see more of the rest of gang. Love these found family and I can’t wait for more!

Great resource for comic book writers
Format: Paperback
This book is exactly as advertised: a great collection of comic scripts by some of the best writers in the field. This is important for two reasons: 1) There is no set format for comic scripts, so seeing examples of how other people write theirs is invaluable. 2) It can be hard to find sample comic scripts online, especially by the top names in the field. Here's nine of them in one shot. Reading this book will give you great insight into how comics are made, and also how some of the best creators in the field approach their craft.
