If I Could Fly is a standalone novel based on characters introduced in Judith Ortiz Cofer's bestselling short story collection, An Island Like You: Stories of the Barrio, which won the inaugural Pura Belpré Award. Fifteen-year-old Doris is used to taking care of herself. Her musician parents have always spent more time singing in nightclubs than watching after her.

Paperback. Zustand: Good. This book is a whimsical look at the author's all-time teams by various categories; including animal names, ethnicity, crazy nicknames, decades, etc. The whimsy, however, is prelude to over 60 biographical sketches as well as the author's opinions of the impact that steroids, the designated hitter, relief pitching, the explosion of salaries, and the introduction of African American and Latino players has had on the great game. The author realizes that many of his readers will disagree with his choice of players, but that goes to the essence of being a fan. Arguing about who was better, Willie, Mickey, or the Duke fuels the true baseball lover's passions as much as seeing his team pull out a victory in the bottom of the ninth. So grab yourself a beer and enjoy this look at our national pastime from this zany perspective of a lifelong fan.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Jean has been called Blue Jean since childhood, but not because of her clothing. She wears nondescript colors and avoids people when she can. Her world is unhappy but predictable, until the new pastor and his handsome brother move into town. A chance encounter brings the town prostitute to church that Sunday, starting a chain reaction that will shake the church to its core.Will Jean embrace the truth that will set her free, or will fear keep her captive forever? Shredded was inspired by the Biblical story of the scandalous woman wiping Jesus' feet with her hair. If that story happened in a modern context on a larger scale, who would respond like the judgmental religious leader, who would respond like Jesus, and what would happen to the woman who'd been forgiven much? *********************Brookside Baptist Church, in Oakview, N.C., is bound by years of tradition and a powerful deacon. But when Pastor Stewart and his wife arrive in town, changes begin to take hold at the dusty church. Candy, a local prostitute, attends Pastor Stewart's first sermon and her life is transformed. To some of the elderly ladies' dismay, the ebullient town outcast begins to engage wholeheartedly with the church while learning to reform her life--providing an example of the redemptive power of Christ's love to even the most devout members. Candy's bubbly spirit brightens the church, inspiring the lonely Jean, a longtime church member, to come to engage with painful memories. For 15 years Jean has been holding a troubling secret about the church's deacon. In light of her knowledge, over the years Jean has made it her duty to guard the church children. Now, with the community slowly changing, Blue Jean is able to let down her defenses and find unexpected comfort with the pastor's handsome brother, Grant, who helps her heal at last. Rae brings to light difficult subject matter with empathy and restraint, gracefully exploring the pain of overcoming violation and trauma through the eyes of the victims. Rae's characters are realistic and endearing. This is an uplifting story about the courage it takes to reform a community and care for the marginalized and neglected. - Publisher's Weekly /Fiction-Overcoming Child Abuse /Fiction-Freedom from the Past /Fiction-Fighting Human Trafficking /Fiction-Christian Suspense /Fiction-Christian Romance /Fiction-Facing Fears.…
