Kissing kosher : a novel / by Meltzer, Jean,author.;
"Avital Cohen isn't wearing underpants-woefully, for unsexy reasons. Chronic pelvic pain has forced her to sideline her photography dreams and her love life. It's all she can do to manage her family's kosher bakery, Best Babka in Brooklyn, without collapsing. She needs hired help. And distractingly handsome Ethan Lippmann seems the perfect fit. Except Ethan isn't there to work-he's undercover, at the behest of his ironfisted grandfather. Though Lippmann's is a household name when it comes to mass-produced kosher baked goods, they don't have the charm of Avital's bakery. Or her grandfather's world-famous pumpkin spice babka recipe. As they bake side by side, Ethan soon finds himself more interested in Avital than in stealing family secrets, especially as he helps her find the chronic pain relief -- and pleasure -- she's been missing. But perfecting the recipe for romance calls for leaving out the lies ... even if coming clean means risking everything"--

Shakespeare : the man who pays the rent / by Dench, Judi,1934-author,illustrator.; O'Hea, Brendan(Actor),author.;
"Discover the work of the greatest writer in the English language as you've never encountered it before in internationally renowned actor Dame Judi Dench's SHAKESPEARE: The Man Who Pays The Rent--a witty, insightful journey through the plays and tales of our beloved Shakespeare. Taking a curtain call with a live snake in her wig ... Cavorting naked through the Warwickshire countryside painted green ... Acting opposite a child with a pumpkin on his head ... These are just a few of the things Dame Judi Dench has done in the name of Shakespeare. For the very first time, Judi opens up about every Shakespearean role she has played throughout her seven-decade career, from Lady Macbeth and Titania to Ophelia and Cleopatra. In a series of intimate conversations with actor & director Brendan O'Hea, she guides us through Shakespeare's plays with incisive clarity, revealing the secrets of her rehearsal process and inviting us to share in her triumphs, disasters, and backstage shenanigans. Interspersed with vignettes on audiences, critics, company spirit and rehearsal room etiquette, she serves up priceless revelations on everything from the craft of speaking in verse to her personal interpretations of some of Shakespeare's most famous scenes, all brightened by her mischievous sense of humour, striking level of honesty and a peppering of hilarious anecdotes, many of which have remained under lock and key until now. Instructive and witty, provocative and inspiring, this is ultimately Judi's love letter to Shakespeare, or rather, The Man Who Pays The Rent"--

Make me a mixtape / by Whiteford, Jennifer,author.;
"A guarded punk-rocker-turned-barista meets a big-hearted sound tech who charms his way into her life and helps her revisit her musical past in this cozy, fall read. Perfect for fans of pumpkin spice and oversized scarves. Allie felt her shoulders relax as she slid her favorite microphone into the stand and plugged its cord into her tiny soundboard ... Music wasn't what had failed her. It was everything else that came with it ... Allie Andrews gave up on the music world 10 years ago. No wild tours, no late nights, no career-ending inter-band blowouts. Just day after comfortable day of working in her aunt's cafe in Brooklyn and recording 80s cover songs in her tiny apartment. So, the last thing she wants, or expects, is to be recognized as former punk rocker Allie Jetski. But a last-minute coffee delivery lands her face to face with the big, charming, handsome (and quite possibly number one fan of The Jetskis) Ryan Abernathy. Of course, Ryan isn't about to forget meeting the lead singer of one of his favorite bands. Undeterred by her prickly demeanor, he sets his mind to helping Allie find her way back to The Jetskis--so she can come to terms with what happened all those years ago. Allie finds him hard to resist, and her quiet life is turned upside down as she is swept up in a whirlwind hunt for her old bandmates. But when Aunt Mindy announces that she's decided to sell the cafe--Allie's home for the last decade--to travel the world, Allie is faced with a life-altering choice: play it safe and take over the cafe, or take the risk and open herself up to a future in music ... and maybe even love."--Provided by publisher.
