Woke up like this : a novel / by Lea, Amy,author.;
Planning the perfect prom is one last "to do" on ultra-organized Charlotte Wu's high school bucket list. Then a decorating accident sends Charlotte crash-landing off a ladder, face-first into her obnoxious archnemesis J. T. Renner. Worse, she wakes up in an unfamiliar bed -- thirty years old, with her bearded fiancé, Renner, by her side. Somehow they have been drop-kicked into adulthood, trapped in the thirty-year-old bodies of their future selves. With each other as their only constant, Charlotte and Renner discover all that has changed in the time they have missed. Reaching the next milestone may not be as important as what happens in between.

The talented Mrs. Mandelbaum : the rise and fall of an American organized-crime boss / by Fox, Margalit,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index."In 1850, Fredericka Mandelbaum emigrated to New York from Germany and worked as a rag peddler on the streets of the Lower East Side. By the 1870s she was a widow with four children, a popular society hostess, and a philanthropist. What enabled a woman on the margins of nineteenth-century American life to ascend from tenement poverty to immense wealth? In the intervening years, Mrs. Mandelbaum had become the country's most notorious "fence" -- a receiver of stolen goods and a successful criminal mastermind. By the mid-1880s as much as 10 million dollars worth of purloined property (the equivalent of nearly 300 million dollars in today's money) had passed through her little haberdashery shop. She planned, financed, and profited from robberies of cash, gold, and diamonds throughout New York and beyond. But she wasn't just a successful crook, she was a visionary. Called "the nucleus and center of the whole organization of crime in New York City" by the New York Times, Mandelbaum was the first person in American history to systemize formerly scattershot property crime enterprises. Handpicking a cadre of New York's foremost bank robbers, housebreakers, and shoplifters and bribing a corresponding group of the city's police and politicians, she handled logistics and organized supply chains -- turning theft into a proper, scaled business"--

Inside the NRA : a tell-all account of corruption, greed, and paranoia within the most powerful political group in America / by Powell, Joshua L.,author.;
Includes bibliographical references.A shocking exposé of rampant, decades-long incompetence at the National Rifle Association, as told by a former member of its senior leadership. Joshua L. Powell is the NRA--a lifelong gun advocate, in 2016, he began his new role as a senior strategist and chief of staff to NRA CEO Wayne LaPierre. What Powell uncovered was horrifying: "the waste and dysfunction at the NRA was staggering." Inside the NRA reveals for the first time the rise and fall of the most powerful political organization in America--how the NRA became feared as the Death Star of Washington lobbies and so militant and extreme as "to create and fuel the toxicity of the gun debate until it became outright explosive." Inside the NRA explains this intentional toxic messaging was wholly the product of LaPierre's leadership and the extremist branding by his longtime PR puppet master Angus McQueen. In damning detail, Powell exposes the NRA's plan to "pour gasoline" on the fire in the fight against gun control, to sow discord to fill its coffers, and to secure the presidency for Donald J. Trump.
