A Mi’kmaq family from Nova Scotia arrives in Maine to pick blueberries for the summer. Weeks later, four-year-old Ruthie, the family’s youngest child, vanishes. She is last seen by her six-year-old brother, Joe, sitting on a favorite rock at the edge of a berry field. Joe will remain distraught by his sister’s disappearance for years to come.</p><p>In Maine, a young girl named Norma grows up as the only child of an affluent family. Her father is emotionally distant, her mother frustratingly overprotective. Norma is often troubled by recurring dreams and visions that seem more like memories than imagination. As she grows older, Norma slowly comes to realize there is something her parents aren’t telling her. Unwilling to abandon her intuition, she will spend decades trying to uncover this family secret.</p><p><em>The Berry Pickers</em> is an intimate portrait of race, love, and loneliness–and the power of forgiveness. </p><p><a href="https://libraryc.org/phoenixpubliclibrary/100441" target="_blank">Register now</a> to take part in the discussion!<br></p><p><br></p><p><img src="/images/eLibrary/LSC/LSC-11.18_Duhigg_web.jpg" alt="" style="margin:5px;" /><br></p><h3><a href="https://libraryc.org/phoenixpubliclibrary/101046" aria-label="View details for Unlock the Secret Language of Connection with Supercommunicator Charles Duhigg webinar" target="_blank">Unlock the Secret Language of Connection with Supercommunicator Charles Duhigg</a></h3><p><strong>Tuesday, November 18 at 12 p.m.</strong><br></p><p>Get yourself primed for the holiday season and join us for an online conversation you won't want to miss! Charles Duhigg, author of the bestselling books <em>The Power of Habit and Smarter Faster Better</em>, presents the ultimate guide on how to communicate and connect with anyone at work, home, and in life in his latest work, <em>Supercommunicators: How to Unlock the Secret Language of Connection</em>. </p><p>In this groundbreaking book, Duhigg unravels the secrets of the supercommunicators to reveal the art - and the science - of successful communication. He unpicks the different types of everyday conversation and pinpoints why some go smoothly while others swiftly fall apart. He reveals the conversational questions and gambits that bring people together. And he shows how even the most tricky of encounters can be turned around. In the process, he shows why a CIA operative was able to win over a reluctant spy, how a member of a jury got his fellow jurors to view an open-and-shut case differently, and what a doctor found they needed to do to engage with a vaccine skeptic.</p><p>Above all, he reveals the techniques we can all master to successfully connect with others, however tricky the circumstances. Packed with fascinating case studies and drawing on cutting-edge research, this book will change the way you think about what you say, and how you say it.</p><p><a href="https://libraryc.org/phoenixpubliclibrary/101046" target="_blank">Register now</a> to take part in the online discussion, learn how to enhance your everyday conversations, and add a new title to the holiday wishlist!<br></p><p><br></p><p><img src="/images/eLibrary/LSC/LSC-12.2_Hincenbergs_web.jpg" alt="" style="margin:5px;" /><br></p><h3><a href="https://libraryc.org/phoenixpubliclibrary/103021" aria-label="View details for Scheming Wives and High-Stakes Hilarity with Author Sue Hincenbergs webinar" target="_blank">Scheming Wives and High-Stakes Hilarity with Author Sue Hincenbergs</a><br></h3><p><strong>Tuesday, December 2 at 12 p.m.</strong><br></p><p></p><p>Buckle up for a wild ride and join us as we sit down for an online chat with debut author Sue Hincenbergs to discuss her novel <em>The Retirement Plan</em>, in which murder is the name of the game. When the only thing standing between three best friends and a sunny beachfront retirement condo are their husbands, what ensues is a diabolical plan to collect on their spouses’ life insurance policies. <br><br>After thirty years of friendship, Pam dreams of her perfect retirement with Nancy, Shalisa, Marlene, and their husbands—until their husbands pool their funds for an investment that goes terribly wrong, and their dreams of beachfront condos and a sunny, carefree retirement vanish. The golden years are looking as dreary as their marriages.<br><br>But when one husband dies in a freak accident, the other three women are shocked to see his widow rebound with a huge life insurance payout and a new life in Florida. In the aftermath, the women discover that their husbands have identical, seven-figure life insurance policies. A new dream forms, and this time, it involves a hitman. Meanwhile, their husbands have a secret retirement plan of their own.<br><br>You won’t want to miss this darkly humorous debut by Sue Hincenbergs, filled with both laugh-out-loud and genuinely tense moments as our headstrong wives pursue their dream retirement at all costs. </p><p><a href="https://libraryc.org/phoenixpubliclibrary/103021" target="_blank">Register today to take part in the fun!</a><br></p><h3 style="text-align:center;"><br></h3><h3 style="text-align:center;"><a href="https://libraryc.org/phoenixpubliclibrary" target="_blank">Learn more about the Library Speakers Consortium and view all upcoming events.</a><br></h3></div><p><br></p></div> | library-speakers-consortium | |
