Fang fiction : a novel / by Stayman-London, Kate,author.;
"Tess Rosenbloom is used to living in the dark. She's a trauma survivor and chronic insomniac, the night manager of a chic Brooklyn hotel who spends her free time reading Blood Feud, a massively popular book series about two warring clans of vampires trapped on a mysterious Isle. Tess even dabbles in online conspiracies theorizing that the world of Blood Feud is real - it's fun to hunt for clues! But deep down, Tess doesn't believe vampires actually exist ... Until one walks through her door. It turns out the sexy villain of Blood Feud is trapped, and his sister is desperate for Tess to help rescue him. Eager to escape her own life, Tess agrees, and soon she's in a fantasia of lavish palaces and dark forests, on a secret island where the sun never shines, everything is magical, and she's surrounded by deadly vampires - and against her better judgment, she's falling in love with one of them. Visiting the world of your favorite story is any fan's dream, but will Tess be able to outrun the demons of her past (and the vampires of her present) before it becomes a nightmare? In this darkly glamorous rom-com, Tess will find out whether it's worth risking her neck-and her heart-for a chance to reclaim her future"--

The wind at my back : resilience, grace, and other gifts from my mentor, Raven Wilkinson / by Copeland, Misty,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index."Misty Copeland made history as the first African-American principal ballerina at the American Ballet Theatre. Her talent, passion, and perseverance enabled her to make strides no one had accomplished before. But as she will tell you, achievement never happens in a void. Behind her, supporting her rise was her mentor, Raven Wilkinson, who had been virtually alone in her quest to breach the all-white ballet world when she fought to be taken seriously as a black ballerina in the 1950s and 60s. A trailblazer in the world of ballet decades before Misty's time, Raven faced overt and casual racism, hostile crowds, and death threats for having the audacity to dance ballet. The Wind at My Back tells the story of two unapologetically Black ballerinas, their friendship, and how they changed each other--and the dance world--forever. Misty Copeland shares her own struggles with racism and exclusion in her pursuit of this dream career and honors the women like Raven who paved the way for her but whose contributions have gone unheralded. She celebrates the connection she made with Raven, the only teacher who could truly understand the obstacles she faced, beyond the technical or artistic demands. A beautiful and wise memoir of intergenerational friendship and the impressive journeys of two remarkable women, The Wind at My Back captures the importance of mentorship, of shared history, and of respecting the past to ensure a stronger future"--
