- All in her head : [sound recording] the truth and lies early medicine taught us about women's bodies and why it matters today / by Comen, Elizabeth,author.(CARDINAL)884043; Caputo, Anna,narrator.(CARDINAL)862083;
Read by Anna Caputo.Much of what we know about women's bodies and health has come from men. Their points of view have helped shaped the way we feel about our bodies, and the kind of medical attention we receive. Women's bodies have never been considered as powerful, capable, or of equal worth as men's. Our "normal" bodily functions, as well as our pain, pleasure, strength, and intellectual capacity, have been based on an overwhelmingly male narrative uninformed by women's own voices, and often used to shame and subjugate us. The result is a cultural and societal legacy that continues to shape our health, despite recent advances that challenge it. Memorial Sloan Kettering oncologist and medical historian Elizabeth Comen, M.D., sets out to change this. In this informative, eye-opening book, she unpacks this legacy, taking us on a tour of each of our body's systems, the endocrine system (hormonal), skeletal, muscular, circulatory, respiratory, digestive, urinary, immune system, nervous system, sexual and reproductive, to (re-)introduce how they work and the historical doctors and patients whose perspectives and experiences laid the foundation for our current understanding, as well as the many oversights which remain unaddressed. By illuminating our medical past, we can understand how it affects our lives today and provide better care for the future. A riveting medical history, it is an essential contribution to the literature on women's health and a way forward to achieve higher standards of care for all.

- Prose and cons [sound recording] / by Staub, Wendy Corsiauthor(CARDINAL)347717; Caputo, Annanarrator(CARDINAL)862083;
Read by Anna Caputo."It's been nine months since widowed mom Bella Jordan and her young son Max moved to Lily Dale, the quirky, close-knit New York community populated by people who can speak to the dead . . . if one believes in that kind of thing. Now she counts Valley View, the guesthouse she runs, as home and her psychic medium neighbours as friends. Even haughty, British Pandora, who used to own Valley View before her difficult divorce. So when Pandora sweeps in, requesting an urgent tete-a-tete, Bella expects it to be another complaint about book club. It isn't. Pandora airily reveals her elderly Auntie Eudora is taking a last-minute cruise from London to New York with her gentleman friend Nigel - and minutes later Bella is bemused to find she's agreed to host them at Valley View free of charge. Bella has enough on her plate: her son Max, their two kitties, a budding relationship with local vet Drew . . . not to mention this month's book club pick to read. But when she begins to have suspicions about one of her new guests, she's determined to uncover the truth for Pandora's sake - even if it kills her first."--Provided by publisher.Compact discs.

Read by Anna Caputo.A scintillating debut about a disillusioned tech executive who goes into an obsessive spiral when her best friend--and longtime crush--is implicated in a woman's death. Edie Walker's life is not going as planned. At thirty-five, she feels stuck: in her career, in her love life, and in her tiny San Francisco studio apartment. It doesn't help that her best friend, Peter Masterson, is basically the uber successful male version of her--and she's hopelessly, unrequitedly in love with him. But when Peter breaks up with his girlfriend of seven years, Edie thinks her life might finally be turning around. He'll discover how toxic dating app culture is and realize that Edie has been right for him all along. Except Peter almost immediately lands a date with Anaya Thomas, a gorgeous, whip-smart professor and writer of feminist literature who even Edie--reared in the culture of tech bros--is smitten by. Unlike the women Peter has dated before, Anaya is like an alternate reality version of Edie--one with shampoo commercial hair and a meaningful career, who definitely doesn't spend her weekends scrolling social media alone in her apartment. It's only a matter of time before Peter falls head over heels for this woman; Edie herself is infatuated after one meeting. Then, Anaya is found dead in her apartment. Right after a date with Peter. Driven by her near-fanatic love of Anaya's work and a desperate need to prove Peter's innocence, Edie begins searching for clues to what really happened that night. As her obsession with the investigation grows, so do her doubts in Peter. When the truth finally comes to light, Edie must decide where her loyalties lie, who deserves justice--and who deserves to be punished. Provocative, tense, and thoroughly enjoyable, Nothing Serious is a shrewdly observed, astonishingly heartfelt debut combining a darkly funny take-down of online dating with an honest examination of the challenges women face every day--but don't dare discuss--from a brilliant new voice in contemporary fiction.Adult.Issued on Playaway, a dedicated audio media player.One set of earphones and one AAA battery required for listening.

Read by Anna Caputo; Aspen Vincent; Shannon Tyo.A stranded detective tries to solve a murder in a tiny Alaskan town where everyone lives in a single high-rise building, in this gripping debut by an Academy Award nominated screenwriter. When a local teenager discovers a severed hand and foot washed up on the shore of the small town of Point Mettier, Alaska, Cara Kennedy is on the case. A detective from Anchorage, she has her own motives for investigating the possible murder in this isolated place, which can be accessed only by a tunnel. After a blizzard causes the tunnel to close indefinitely, Cara is stuck among the odd and suspicious residents of the town, all 205 of whom live in the same high-rise building and are as icy as the weather. Cara teams up with Point Mettier police officer Joe Barkowski, but before long the investigation is upended by fearsome gang members from a nearby native village. Haunted by her past, Cara soon discovers that everyone in this town has something to hide. Will she be able to unravel their secrets before she unravels?"Adult.
