The blue collar CEO : my gutsy journey from rookie contractor to multi-millionaire construction boss / by Rennehan, Mandy,author.;
"Born in Yarmouth, Nova Scotia, Mandy Rennehan began her business career at ten-years-old by catching bait and selling it to local fishermen. She was so good at her job, she was soon out-earning her father, a local lobster fisherman. At the age of seventeen, Rennehan decided to strike out on her own, so she packed a hockey bag full of her belongings and fled to Halifax, where she began cold calling construction companies, volunteering to work for free, so she could learn more about contracting and the trades. Three years later, Rennehan had garnered all the experience she needed to start her own company Freshco, a boutique retail maintenance and construction company. Still in her early twenties, Rennehan's reputation as a knowledgeable and trustworthy contractor, led to her first corporate contract with The Gap. Freshco has since gone on to become a multi-million-dollar company whose clients are some of the top corporations in North America, including Apple, Lululemon, Tiffany's, Sephora, Anthropologie, Nike, and Home Depot, to name but a few. Known as the Blue-Collar CEO for her ability to seamlessly navigate between the white- and blue-collar worlds, and as a tireless advocate for the trades, Rennehan's savvy business skills and innovative thinking, led her to the top of a male-dominated industry before she reached the age of thirty. This book is the "respectfully uncensored" story of how Rennehan succeeded in business through honesty, integrity, and most of all, authenticity - by always remaining true to herself and her vision for success."--

Sleep / by Jones, Honor,author.;
"From a dazzling new talent, the story of a newly divorced young mother forced to reckon with the secrets of her own childhood when she brings her daughters back to the opulent house where she was raised. Every parent exists inside of two families simultaneously - the one she was born into, and the one she has made. Ten-year-old Margaret hides beneath a blackberry bush in her family's verdant backyard while her brother hunts for her in a game of flashlight tag. Hers is a childhood of sunlit swimming pools and Saturday morning pancakes and a devoted best friend, but her family life requires careful maintenance. Her mother can be as brittle and exacting as she is loving, and her father and brother assume familiar, if uncomfortable, models of masculinity. Then late one summer, everything changes. After a series of confusing transgressions, the simple pleasures of suburban life, and of girlhood, slip away. Twenty-five years later, Margaret hides under her bed, waiting for her young daughters to find her in a game of hide and seek. She's newly divorced and navigating her life as a co-parent, while discovering the pleasures of a new lover. But some part of her is still under the blackberry bush, punched out of time. Called upon to be a mother to her daughters, and a daughter to her mother, she must reckon with the echoes and refractions between the past and the present, what it means to make a child feel safe, and how much of our lives are our own, alone. Warm and generous, unflinchingly human, and ultimately joyful and empowering, SLEEP is about the cycles of motherhood and childhood, the cost of secrets and the burden of love, and what's on the other side of silence: the world, rich in possibility"--

The imposters : how Republicans quit governing and seized American politics / by Benen, Steve,author.;
Includes bibliographical references."Most American voters innocently assume the two major political parties are equally mature and responsible governing entities, ideological differences aside. That belief is due for an overhaul: over the past decade, the Republican Party has undergone an astonishing metamorphosis, one so baffling and complete that few have fully reckoned with the reality and its consequences. Republicans, simply put, have quit governing. As MSNBC's Steve Benen charts in his groundbreaking new book, the contemporary GOP has become a "post-policy party." Republicans are effectively impostors, presenting themselves as officials who are ready to take seriously the substance of problem solving, but whose sole focus is the pursuit and maintenance of power. Astonishingly, they are winning - at the cost of pushing the political system to the breaking point. Despite having billed itself as the "party of ideas," the Republican Party has walked away from the hard but necessary work of policymaking. It is disdainful of expertise and hostile toward evidence and arithmetic. It is tethered to few, if any, meaningful policy preferences. It does not know, and does not care, about how competing proposals should be crafted, scrutinized, or implemented. This policy nihilism dominated the party's posture throughout Barack Obama's presidency, which in turn opened the door to Donald Trump -- who would cement the GOP's post-policy status in ways that were difficult to even imagine a few years earlier. The implications of this approach to governance are all-encompassing. Voters routinely elect Republicans such as Mitch McConnell and Mike Pence to powerful offices, expecting GOP policymakers to have the technocratic wherewithal to identify problems, weigh alternative solutions, forge coalitions, accept compromises, and apply some level of governmental competence, if not expertise. The party has consistently proven those hopes misguided. The result is an untenable political model that's undermining the American policymaking process and failing to serve the public's interests." -- Publisher.
