Rogers v. Rogers : the battle for control of Canada's telecom empire / by Posadzki, Alexandra,author.;
"A riveting and definitive account that takes us inside the spectacular battle for control of Canada's largest wireless carrier, and paints a larger picture of the telecom industry, known for its cut-throat competetiveness and high stakes drama. Alexandra Posadzki's groundbreaking coverage in the Globe and Mail of the long-simmering tensions within Rogers exposed one of the most spectacular boardroom and family dramas in Canadian corporate history--one that has not only pitted the extraordinarily powerful chairman and largest shareholder, Edward Rogers, against current management but also the wishes of his own late mother, and sisters. Hanging in the balance is no less than the recent acquisition of Shaw Communications for $26 billion, Roger's biggest deal in their history that can transform them into the truly national telecom that founder Ted Rogers always envisioned. Based on deeply sourced investigative reporting of the iconic $30 billion publicly traded telecom and media giant, Posadzki takes us inside a company that touches the lives of millions of Canadians, and challenges what we thought we knew about corporate governance and who really holds the power. Rogers vs. Rogers is also a story of family ownership and succession, of the new guard pushing back at the old guard, and how warring factions each interpret the desires of the founding patriarch and the very legacy of the company that bears their name."--

Murder marks the page / by Smith, Karen Rose,author.;
"New York State's Belltower Landing is a lakeside resort town where tourists spend their summer days boating, floating, and paddle-boarding on the water. It's also the perfect place to cuddle up with a good book and enjoy a cup of tea, courtesy of Tomes & Tea. Owned and operated by Jazzi and her best friend Dawn Fernsby, the book bar is beloved by vacationers and locals alike, but browsers grabbing brews in the off season aren't enough to help them make ends meet. Between brainstorming social media publicity ideas for the shop and fending off flirtatious men she has no interest in or time for, Jazzi befriends a woman named Brie who has recently made contact with her biological father. As an adopted child herself, Jazzi is more than happy to give Brie emotional support, especially as her wealthy father's wife and children see her as a threat. But Brie is also looking to start a family of her own. Unfortunately, all the potential princes she's met through a dating app turn out to be frogs. Then, when Brie is found murdered, Jazzi finds herself playing detective. With a list of suspects ranging from jealous half-siblings to less-than-suitable suitors, Jazzi may need to consult some of her shop's bestselling mysteries to help her uncover a killer ... " --

The Banned Books Club / by Novak, Brenda,author.;
"Despite their strained relationship, when Gia Rossi's sister, Margot, begs her to come home to Wakefield, Iowa, to help with their ailing mother, Gia knows she has no choice. After her rebellious and at-times-tumultuous teen years, Gia left town with little reason to look back. But she knows Margot's borne the brunt of their mother's care and now it's Gia's turn to help, even if it means opening old wounds. As expected, Gia's homecoming is far from welcome. There's the Banned Books Club she started after the PTA overzealously slashed the high school reading list, which is right where she left it. But there is also Mr. Hart, her former favorite teacher. The one who was fired after Gia publicly and painfully accused him of sexual misconduct. The one who prompted Gia to leave behind a very conflicted town the minute she turned eighteen. The one person she hoped never to see again. When Margot leaves town without explanation, Gia sees the cracks in her sister's "perfect" life for the first time and plans to offer support. But as the town, including members of the book club, takes sides between Gia and Mr. Hart, everything gets harder. Fortunately, she learns that there are people she can depend on. And by standing up for the truth, she finds love and a future in the town she thought had rejected her."--

Hollywood vampires : Johnny Depp, Amber Heard, and the celebrity exploitation machine / by Loudenberg, Kelly,author.; Wholey, Makiko,author.;
"Celebrity romances have always captured the public's imagination, playing out like soap operas seized upon by fans and tabloids alike. By the same token, high-profile trials can take over the mainstream media cycle, with both news pundits and the public picking over every detail to predict outcomes and cast their own judgements. Enter the union, dissolution, and hostile legal battle between Johnny Depp and Amber Heard -- where these dual obsessions collided, creating a chaotic moment of true cultural fixation. [This book] offers an inside account of one of the most controversial and consequential celebrity scandals of the Internet era. Fueled by viral clips, reaction videos, and endless online debates, the trial became more than a legal battle -- it became a public spectacle, dividing audiences worldwide"--
