- The mirror / by Roberts, Nora,author.;
"#1 New York Times bestselling author Nora Roberts continues the hauntingly spectacular Lost Bride Trilogy with book two, The Mirror. When Sonya MacTavish inherits the huge Victorian mansion on the coast of Maine, she has no idea that the house is haunted. The footsteps she hears at night, the doors slamming, the music playing, are not figments of her imagination. In her dreams she sees glimpses of the past. In the present she finds portraits of brides. And when she has visions of an antique mirror, she is drawn to it, sensing it holds dark family secrets. Then one night the mirror appears and Sonya glides through this looking glass, into the past-and sees a bride murdered on her wedding day, the circle of gold torn from her finger. It is a scene that will play out again and again-a centuries-old curse that must be broken-and a puzzle she must solve if there is any hope of breaking the curse"--- Subjects: Paranormal fiction.; Romance fiction.; Novels.; Blessing and cursing; Brides; Family secrets; Haunted houses; Murder; Secrecy; Time travel; Weddings;

- Let's never talk about this again : a memoir / by Alterman, Sara Faith,author.;
"Sara was at the tender age of 12 when she found the skeleton in her prudish parents' closet: a series of novelty sex books crammed high up on a shelf in her childhood living room, all written by Sara's ordinary suburban dad, Ira. For decades the books were an unspoken secret in Sara's family until Ira developed early onset Alzheimer's disease ... and announced he'd be reviving his novelty porn career. With Sara's help. In this cringe-worthy, unique, moving memoir--based on her New York Times piece--Sara shares the profound loss of the father she knew and loved as she attempts desperately to welcome the pervy neurological stranger who has taken his place. As heartwarming as it is heartbreaking, Let's Never Talk About This Again is a must-read confessional from a woman who spent years trying to find humor in the perverse and optimism in the darkness, and succeeded"--- Subjects: Biographies.; Autobiographies.; Alterman, Sara Faith.; Alterman, Ira; Alzheimer's disease; Alzheimer's disease;
