- Uncommon kitchens : a revolutionary approach to the most popular room in the house / by Donelson, Sophie,author.;
"The past few years have made us all want to rethink our living spaces, particularly our kitchens. Our inner voices are saying: you spend a lot of time in this room, shouldn't it feel more like you? Now it can. Sophie Donelson revolutionizes traditional kitchen design with a bevy of inventive ideas for makeovers large and small. The kitchen is put together unlike any other room in the house-- but that doesn't mean you have to be hemmed in by tradition. Sophie takes a rule-breaking approach, mixing and layering styles, colors, furnishings, and layouts to make even well-trod kitchens vividly fresh. Drawing on advice and up-to-the-minute projects from designers such as Joy Cho, Studio Shamshiri, Beata Heuman, and a host of others, each personality-filled chapter is packed with liberating designs that will change your thinking about the tried-and-true kitchen. Learn from DIYers, Instagrammers, and design icons such as Ilse Crawford, Johnny Grey, and Robert Kime. Be inspired by innovators such as Heidi Caillier, Jessica Helgerson, Reath Design, Ward & Pierce, and Studio Laloc. Let chefs and foodies, including Alison Roman-- whose tips for a tiny kitchen are life-changing-- and Alex Snodgrass @theDefinedDish, change your thinking about floorplans and furnishings. These imaginative new kitchens will make you a quick convert and the book's know-how will help you create your own kitchen revolution, too"--- Subjects: Interior decoration.; Kitchens;

- Unmasking for life : the autistic person's guide to connecting, loving, and living authentically / by Price, Devon,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index."Most masked Autistics have spent a lifetime being told how to perform neurotypically: how to behave, how to carry themselves, what to feel, and how to live. With his previous book, Unmasking Autism, Dr. Devon Price has given them the space and tools to unmask and embrace their neurodiversity. But no matter where you are in the unmasking process, there is still work to be done. Because Autistic people often fear change, struggle to process unfamiliar situations, and have trauma histories that have conditioned them to avoid conflict, they don't always know how to transform their inner revelations into outer realities. They need more than internal healing -- they need practical tools to translate acceptance into assertiveness and interpersonal effectiveness. Enter Unmasking for Life, which provides the resources to help you advocate for your needs and invent new ways of living, loving, and being that work with your disability rather than against it. You'll learn how to develop five key skills for building authentic relationships and living unmasked: Acceptance of change, loss, and uncertainty; Engagement in productive conflict, discussion, and disagreement; Transgression of unfair rules, demands, and social expectations; Tolerance of distress, disagreement, or being disliked; Creation of new accommodations, relationship structures, and new ways of living. Unmasking for Life will help validate and support you so you can move beyond unmasking your Autism and begin unmasking your world"--- Subjects: Self-help publications.; Autistic people; Masking (Psychology);

- The manicurist's daughter : a memoir / by Lieu, Susan,author.;
"An emotionally raw memoir about the crumbling of the American Dream and a daughter of refugees who searches for answers after her mother dies during plastic surgery. Susan Lieu has long been searching for answers. About her family's past and about her own future. Refugees from the Vietnam War, Susan's family escaped to California in the 1980s after five failed attempts. Upon arrival, Susan's mother was their savvy, charismatic North Star, setting up two successful nail salons and orchestrating every success-until Susan was eleven. That year, her mother died from a botched tummy tuck. After the funeral, no one was ever allowed to talk about her or what happened. For the next twenty years, Susan navigated a series of cascading questions alone-why did the most perfect person in her life want to change her body? Why would no one tell her about her mother's life in Vietnam? And how did this surgeon, who preyed on Vietnamese immigrants, go on operating after her mother's death? Sifting through depositions, tracking down the surgeon's family, and enlisting the help of spirit channelers, Susan uncovers the painful truth of her mother, herself, and the impossible ideal of beauty. The Manicurist's Daughter is much more than a memoir about grief, trauma, and body image. It is a story of fierce determination, strength in shared culture, and finding your place in the world"--- Subjects: Biographies.; Autobiographies.; Personal narratives.; Lieu, Susan.; Lieu, Susan; Bereavement.; Children of immigrants; Mother and child.; Surgery, Plastic; Vietnamese Americans;
