A murder between the pages / by Lillard, Amy.;
"The next in the Main Street Book Club mysteries! It was only a few months ago that the ladies of Arlo's Friday Night Book Club-Fern, Camille, and Helen-solved the murder of the renowned author, Wally Harrison. So when they select Wally's bestseller, Missing Girl, for their next discussion, Arlo is hopeful it will be the end of their mystery hunt. But the women are convinced Missing Girl was inspired by a 50-year-old cold case from their own Sugar Springs, Mississippi-the disappearance of Mary Kennedy-and Arlo can do little to stop the book club ladies from investigating. When a young girl is murdered in the exact place the women believe Mary went missing all those years ago, it becomes clear these two cases are connected. And with Arlo's help, they may just be able to crack the case"--

Dear Miss Metropolitan / by Ferrell, Carolyn,author.;
"Dear Miss Metropolitan tells the fragmented story of Fern, Gwinnie, and Jesenia, three girls abducted by a monster who calls himself Boss Man and held captive in a decaying house in Queens for a decade. Inspired by real events, the tale is inventively revealed by multiple narrators before, during and after their ordeal. Documents, newspapers, excerpts from books, photographs, interviews, and other forms of media piece together the larger story. By the time they are rescued only two of them remain and in their aftermath the "victim females" are subjected to the further trauma of becoming symbols as the survivors, now patients in a facility, continue to adapt to their present and their unrelenting past. The mystery of the disappearance and the illumination of myths about race, gender and the definitions of community and family are at the center of this inventive and urgent fable of survival"--

Gardening for acidic soils : working with nature to create a beautiful andscape / by Boland, Todd,author.; Ellison, Jamie,author.;
Acidic soils are widespread throughout North America, especially in humid regions or areas with high precipitation such as the eastern seaboard and the Pacific Northwest. However, little assistance is available on how to garden specifically with acidic soils. In fact, most advice concerns how to make acidic soil less so.

A wide variety of ornamental plants, both native and exotic, thrive in acidic soil conditions or require them to survive. This book helps you develop gardens that takes advantage of acidic soil conditions, a feature that has too often been considered a detriment. Gardening on Acidic Soils concentrates on building sustainable gardens that include a broad range of shrubs, woody plants, and perennials.

This book includes: The chemistry of acidic soil and plant adaptations. Hints and advice on specialized acidic gardens, including peat, bogs, and woodlands. Plant portraits--trees, shrubs, vines, perennials, grasses, and ferns-- to help you create a beautiful landscape on acidic soil.
