The shadows between us series in order6/26/2023 Ours is just sometimes a little bloodier … and maybe the people around the happy couple should be concerned. Even though I’m not generally one for romance, between the blurb and the description of this as “Slytherin romance,” I knew my little black heart just had to read it.īecause if there’s not a threat of homicide, is it really love? Besides, we Slytherins deserve a happily ever after, too. Quotes are taken from an unfinished version and may differ from the final product. Many thanks to Edewleiss and Feiwel & Friends for an eARC in exchange for an honest, unbiased review. After all, who better for a Shadow King than a cunning, villainous queen?

Published by: Feiwel and Friends on February 25, 2020 The Shadows Between Us by Tricia Levenseller Jew ish jake cohen6/26/2023 It was a really unexpected exploration of identity that started with my relationship. How did your cookbook Jew-ish come about? "I've been very blessed to be a recurring character on a lot of these daytime talk shows in the food world, which has been great, but naturally, I want it all to myself." If we can inspire someone to feel more confident, feel a little bit more passionate, a little more joy in the act of cooking, that's the true goal." While another book is in the works, he hopes to take his ever-growing social media following to TV. If it doesn't taste good, then we failed. "Great food? That's a baseline, everything has to taste good. Start to finish, the process of making it and serving it to people pretty much hits every moral and ethical lesson you should get in life." Ultimately his goal is to inspire others to cook more. "Challah is a force of connection and community and nourishment. We have beautiful cuisine, and it's continued to evolve." One of the ways Jake is proving his point is with his wildly popular social media presence on Instagram and TikTok (2 million-plus followers) where his bread is beloved. Jake Cohen, author of the cookbook Jew-ish, is on a mission to make Jewish food mainstream. West with the wind beryl markham6/25/2023 Her mentor, Arab Murani, a tribal leader, died in the First World War fighting in the British Army. She sailed to East Africa when she was four with her father, a racehorse trainer, and grew up on his farm, speaking Swahili, learning how to train racehorses, and learning bushcraft and hunting with the Masai. She was born Beryl Clutterbuck in 1902 in England. And then finally, in her 80s, this book was rediscovered, republished, and her income – always precarious – was thankfully boosted in the last years of her life. She returned to Africa in the 1950s to train horses again, and won strings of trophies and cups throughout the 1950s and 1960s. But the essentials are here, and probably all the better for being isolated from the emotional complications that other people bring to a life.Īfter West With The Night was published and was praised highly by Ernest Hemingway, among others, Markham and it disappeared from public view. She left out so MUCH from this memoir (her mother and brother, her formal education, her three marriages, her son, her affairs with expensive men). It’s absolutely beautifully written, but the woman is a mystery. I really enjoyed this 1942 memoir by Beryl Markham, a woman living on the fringes of the 1920s Happy Valley set in British East Africa, where she was first a racehorse trainer and then a bush pilot, and in 1936 became the first pilot to fly solo from the UK to North America.

Tony hawk6/24/2023 And with each failed attempt where Hawk’s board flies out from underneath his shoes or his helmet nearly pops off due to the brute force of his fall, the film silently poses the question: Can Hawk still do it? And if we’re being brutally honest, should he even be trying? The question is even more pertinent given how Hawk turned up to the film’s Saturday premiere at Austin’s SXSW on crutches after sustaining an injury to his leg. Hawk became the first to accomplish said feat at the 1999 X Games, finally landing the trick after his 10th attempt. The 900 is considered one of skateboarding’s most difficult tricks, requiring a skater to launch themselves high enough to complete 2.5 rotations in the air. He scrapes himself off the floor, sweat dripping off his face, and dutifully climbs the ramp ladder to give it another go. At one point, he screams out in frustration and pain, nearly knocked out from the force of once again trying to land the near-impossible 900. Normally, the lanky and lean skater casually rips through the air, pulling a show-stopping move out of his unrivaled bag of tricks (Hawk invented more than 100 himself) before landing smoothly on the ramp’s floor and throwing an easy smile-and-wave to his cheering spectators.īut in director Sam Jones’ Tony Hawk: Until the Wheels Fall Off, which premieres on April 5, the 53-year-old is struggling. Tony Hawk doesn’t seem like Tony Hawk in the opening frames of HBO’s new documentary about the skateboarding legend’s life. Tesla richard munson6/24/2023 His presence alone and strategic vision presents a competitive advantage over traditional automakers, many of which lack the ambitious projects and product roadmap Musk has under development, including artificial intelligence (AI) for Tesla's commercial applications. While there are differing opinions on his style of leadership, Tesla shareholders recognize Musk’s importance for the company as CEO. With Friday’s gain, Tesla stock has risen roughly 7% this past week after Musk reaffirmed his commitment towards leading his electric car company, dispelling rumors of his departure. The shares closed on Friday at $180.14, rising 1.8%, compared to a decline of 0.1% and 0.2% for the S&P 500 index and Nasdaq Composite, respectively. On Tuesday, the annual shareholder meeting was held and several new developments emerged, many of which seemingly excited Tesla investors. With the Twitter overhang now gone, and the annual shareholder meeting in the rearview mirror, what’s next? But since that $207 level, the shares have lost 13% to Friday’s close. Just as impressive, since reaching 52-week low of around $101, the stock has surged more than 104% to $207 on March 31. After falling 70% in 2022, the shares are up 46% year to date, besting the 8% rise in the S&P 500 index. |
