- Reading between the lies / by Cahoon, Lynn,author.(CARDINAL)611378;
"Rarity is grateful for many things and people in her new life, including her friend Shirley, who is helping to provide backpacks and supplies for kids going back to school. But Shirley needs a big favor. With her husband in a memory-care home, she wants to attend an art opening with a male friend but fears local gossip. She asks Rarity, her friend Sam, and their boyfriends to come along as cover. It would be fun if not for the fact that the two couples are barely speaking... The evening proceeds without any social disasters. But the gallery owner--who struck Rarity as more of a spoiled playboy--is later found dead with an arrow in his back. Any lingering tensions must be set aside so the amateur sleuths can find an archer who may have taken the idea of pointed criticism a bit too literally..." --- Subjects: Mystery fiction.; Detective and mystery fiction.; Cozy mysteries.; Novels.; Romans policiers cozy.; Romans.; Women booksellers; Bookstores; Book clubs (Discussion groups); Art museums; Friendship; Murder; Femmes libraires; Cafés; Amitié; Meurtre; Librairies; Clubs de lecture;

- The ally / by Repila, Ivaan,1978-author.; Cruz, Aixa de la,1988-writer of supplementary textual content.; Lethem, Mara,translator.;
"In this unexpectedly hilarious social novel, a misguided thirty-something tries to beat his girlfriend at her own game: becoming the ultimate feminist. When he first meets Najwa at a lecture by Siri Hustvedt-whom he's never read-our hero discovers a whole new world of feminist thought. Determined to impress her, he sets out sincerely on his journey to allyship. His mother confides in him about the dreams she had to sacrifice because of the patriarchy, and he laments the violence and oppression women face. But he can't help but notice that they're going about their activism the wrong way... So our hero does what any good ally should: he gathers the worst of the macho men in town and begins a campaign to provoke the feminists. By "putting them in their place" with this phallic club-pelting demonstrators with raw eggs, posting obscene, threatening manifestos-he's convinced he can make women understand, and get them to fight harder for the cause. Following him as his plan spectacularly fails, The Ally mixeshumor, clever storytelling, and hard-core feminist theory to lampoon the macho superiority complex and our modern gender wars"--- Subjects: Novels.; Social problem fiction.; Feminism; Feminism.; Women's movement.;
