It's on me : accept hard truths, discover your self, and change your life / by Kuburic, Sara,author.;
Includes bibliographical references."So many of us feel lonely, unfulfilled, or trapped-in our roles and relationships, in cycles of self-sabotage and wrong decisions, by our toxic patterns and misguided attempts to feel happy--or to feel something. Many of us struggle to like the person we see in the mirror. According to Sara Kuburic, it doesn't have to be so difficult. Really. Instead of pushing harder or running faster, the secret lies in taking full responsibility for the choices and actions that create our reality. It's about slowing down, cutting through the clutter of demands and expectation, and finally taking ownership of this person we call our "Self." Now, Kuburic unpacks "self-loss," giving us new vocabulary to understand our unarticulated experience, and offers tools she's used for years to help her clients recover. Self-loss becomes apparent when we feel the pain and emptiness from performing or observing life, rather than living it. Guiding us through the process of self-reflection, acceptance, and discovery, Kuburic proves that we can: experience but not feel overpowered by our emotions; establish a healthy connection to our bodies; set loving boundaries to define ourselves and heal our relationships; declutter our physical and mental environments to create space for our true selves to thrive; find meaning and purpose in a seemingly meaningless world"--

Umiko Wada has recently had quite enough excitement in her life. With her husband recently murdered and a mother who seems to want her married again before his body is cold, she just wants to keep her head down. As a secretary to a private detective, her life is pleasingly uncomplicated, filled with coffee runs, diary management and paperwork. That is, until her boss takes on a new case. A case which turns out to be dangerous enough to get him killed. A case which means Wada will have to leave Japan for the first time and travel to London. Following the only lead she has, Wada quickly realises that being a detective isn't as easy as the television makes out. And that there's a reason why secrets stay buried for a long time. Because people want them to stay secret. And they're prepared to do very bad things to keep them that way ...

Exhibit / by Kwon, R. O.,author.;
Includes bibliographical references."At a lavish party in the hills outside of San Francisco, Jin Han meets Lidija Jung and nothing will ever be the same for either woman.

Lidija is a glamorous, injured world-class ballerina on hiatus from her ballet company under mysterious circumstances. Drawn to each other by their intense artistic drives, the two women talk all night. Cracked open, Jin finds herself telling Lidija about a old familial curse, breaking a lifelong promise; she's been told that if she doesn't keep the curse a secret, she risks losing everything. As Jin and Lidija become more entangled, they realize they share more than the ferocity of their ambition, and begin to explore hidden desires. Something is ignited in Jin: her art, her body, and her sense of self changed forever. But can she avoid the specter of the curse?

The art of deception / by Goldberg, Leonard S.,author.;
"In the west end of London, an apparently crazed individual is on the loose, breaking into art galleries and private homes to slash valuable paintings of women. Despite Scotland Yard's best efforts, the criminal remains at large and continues on his destructive path. When Joanna and the Watsons are called in to solve the mystery, they soon discover that although the canvases have been slashed, their backings remain pristine, with no cuts or scratches. The criminal, it seems, is no mere vandal-he's searching for something hidden behind the portraits. Suspicion soon falls on two skilled art restorers who previously worked at the gallery where all the vandalized art was purchased. When Joanna finds the body of one in a bricked off fireplace at the gallery, the other is left as the prime suspect. But then he's discovered dead as well. Luckily, Joanna has a plan for ensnaring the criminal once and for all. But it must not fail, or more paintings-and lives-will be lost"--
