30 Perfect Popcorn Recipes : How to Make Sweet & Savory Gourmet Popcorn at Home (The Green Gourmet) by Lori Jane Stewart
Genre(s): Nonfiction, Cooking Food & Wine
N ew from #1 Bestselling author Lori Jane Stewart!
Popcorn has probably been around longer than any other snack food on the planet. It has a rich history, dating back to before civilization and taking part in a multitude of events we celebrate every year. It’s the most popular snack food around the world, and the second most popular snack in America (falling just behind potato chips). Popcorn can be found all over the country, at movie theaters, carnivals, and most people’s kitchens or pantries.
It is a common misconception that popcorn is an unhealthy snack. The reason some people avoid popcorn is because they don’t understand the real culprit! Behind its supposedly unhealthy status, are the seasonings and additives, often added to commercially packaged products to liven up the bland natural flavor and to lengthen it’s shelf life. The popcorn itself is a wholegrain, and these can help prevent cancer and lower the risk of heart disease, while also supplying healthy nutrients that support our vision.
There are many different methods to create popcorn, but the basic principle stays the same. All you have to do is make the kernels hot enough to heat the moisture contained naturally inside, and turn that into steam. The steam creates pressure from inside the hard shell casing and before you know it, POP! – the kernel is turned inside out and is ready to be consumed. As long as you can generate heat and have some kernels on hand, you can make popcorn!
Enough of the history, what about the recipes? I’ve gathered 30 of the finest popcorn recipes from around the world for your snacking pleasure, and have tried to keep them free from artificial sweeteners, preservatives or other nasty additives wherever possible. I’ve specified 9 cups of popped corn for most recipes, as that gives 3 generous cups per serving – you can have as many or as few servings as you fancy, but keep an eye on the calories! For your convenience, I’ve also included nutritional data from the USDA for each recipe (that’s the U.S. Department of Agriculture and not the United Square Dancers of America!)
My preference for both flavor and health reasons, is freshly air-popped popcorn – so I have used that kind for all of these recipes. Everything in this book can be made with kernels you have freshly popped, or if you are in a hurry (or feeling lazy!), then you can always use the plain store bought pre-popped variety – just make sure you check the packaging for artificial nasties!
Most of the ingredients for these recipes can be found at your local grocery store or deli, but if you get stuck, then the slightly more unusual ones can also be bought online via a link at the end of the book.
Enjoy preparing and sharing!

Little Sacrifices by Jamie Scott
Genre(s): Historical Fiction
“ Fifty–five years has made me a Savannahian by inclination if not origin. Everyone who meets me hears the taffy pull drawl of a native and feels the Southern hospitality for which we are known. They are surprised to find that I was once a Yankee, so well have I acclimated. The process began when we moved, but will never really be complete. And I’d be lying if I said my conversion came easy…It was only when I looked around and didn’t see myself reflected back that the questioning began.”
When Duncan and Sarah Powell move with their daughter, May, to Savannah Georgia in 1947, they hope against hope that they’ll be welcomed. But they’re Yankees and worse, they’re civil rights advocates almost a decade too early.
At first May can pretend they’re the same as everyone else. It means keeping quiet when she knows she should speak up, but it’s worth the sacrifice to win friends.
Unfortunately her parents are soon putting their beliefs into action. And when they wake to find that they’re the only family on the block with a Ku Klux Klan cross blazing on their front lawn, the time comes for them to finally decide between what’s easy and what’s right.

Duke Of Deception (Wentworth Trilogy) by Stephie Smith
Genre(s): Romance, Historical Romance

A duke masquerading as a privateer … Jonathan Derek Wentworth has a scheme of his own: to track down the ton-based smuggling gang responsible for his father’s death. When he’s caught in a compromising situation with Lady Louisa, he decides it’s better to marry her than to risk being ostracized by the London society whose invitations are vital to his plan. But Louisa refuses to marry him, unless he meets her terms, one of which is a month-long reprieve from consummation.
Intent on seduction, Derek doesn’t count on his unexpected jealousy wreaking havoc with his emotions, his marriage, and his masquerade. Lucy, still grieving the death of her father, wants desperately to avoid another heartbreak, but fears she may have schemed herself into a marriage with the one man destined to break her heart: a man who isn’t what he seems, who obviously can’t be trusted, and who will surely leave her the first chance he gets.

Bargain Kindle Book – The Hand That First Held Mine
The Hand That First Held Mine by Maggie O’Farrell
L exie Sinclair is plotting an extraordinary life for herself.
Hedged in by her parents’ genteel country life, she plans her escape to London. There, she takes up with Innes Kent, a magazine editor who wears duck-egg blue ties and introduces her to the thrilling, underground world of bohemian, post-war Soho. She learns to be a reporter, to know art and artists, to embrace her life fully and with a deep love at the center of it. She creates many lives–all of them unconventional. And when she finds herself pregnant, she doesn’t hesitate to have the baby on her own.
Later, in present-day London, a young painter named Elina dizzily navigates the first weeks of motherhood. She doesn’t recognize herself: she finds herself walking outside with no shoes; she goes to the restaurant for lunch at nine in the morning; she can’t recall the small matter of giving birth. But for her boyfriend, Ted, fatherhood is calling up lost memories, with images he cannot place.
As Ted’s memories become more disconcerting and more frequent, it seems that something might connect these two stories– these two women– something that becomes all the more heartbreaking and beautiful as they all hurtle toward its revelation.
Here Maggie O’Farrell brings us a spellbinding novel of two women connected across fifty years by art, love, betrayals, secrets, and motherhood. Like her acclaimed The Vanishing Act of Esme Lennox, it is a “breathtaking, heart-breaking creation.”*And it is a gorgeous inquiry into the ways we make and unmake our lives, who we know ourselves to be, and how even our most accidental legacies connect us.
*The Washington Post Book World
Reviews
“O’Farrell brings to mind Sue Miller but with a British and darker flavor; her sure hand for psychological suspense . . . continues to be most impressive.” —Library Journal
“Maggie O’Farrell’s cinematically vivid novel is moody and powerful and plotted at a breakneck pace. This book, like life, will disarm you with its unannounced twists and tragedies and moments of unexpected beauty. She delivers to readers that rarest of experiences—total emotional investment. Hers is a brilliant feat of prose marksmanship—also, it made me cry on the subway.” —Heidi Julavits, author of The Effect of Living Backwards and The Uses of Enchantment
“Maggie O’Farrell knows how to weave a bewitching tale, both thrilling and poetic. The Hand That First Held Mine will no doubt enrapture you, just as it has me.” —Tatiana de Rosnay, author of Sarah’s Key
“An exquisitely sensual tale of love, motherhood, and other forms of madness, The Hand That First Held Mine will unsettle, move, and haunt you.” —Emma Donoghue, author of Slammerkin
“Maggie O’Farrell deftly depicts the long-after shocks of death, betrayal, and life-changing love as her richly complicated characters play out an immensely satisfying plot. The Hand That First Held Mine is a dazzling and absorbing novel.” —Margot Livesey, author of The House on Fortune Street
“Maggie O’Farrell is an uncommonly perceptive writer, and The Hand That First Held Mine is an unforgettable story of family, ambition, and love. I couldn’t stop thinking about it long after I read the final page.” —Lauren Grodstein, author of A Friend of the Family

Southern Gourmet – Luxurious gourmet recipes from the South by Barbara Mack
Genre(s): Nonfiction, Cooking Food & Wine
F rom the author of Easy, Fabulous Bread Making comes a cookbook that will make you think about Southern food in a whole new way.
From the author:
I’m from the South, and I love to cook. Most people think cuisine in the South consists only of beans, greens and cornbread – and though those are delicious – it’s not all we cook here.
When people think of Southern cooking, they don’t think gourmet, but it’s the very essence of gourmet food, nonetheless. We start with fresh ingredients, and we mix them in surprising ways. We mix sweet, savory, hot, and sour with abandon, creating a menu that is fabulously varied. Some of these dishes have roots all the way back to our ancestors who immigrated to this country, and there’s a fine mix of nationalities represented right on our dinner tables.
I have – like all good cooks – tweaked and twisted the recipes to suit myself, and I think you’ll like the results. You’ll find desserts, starters, breakfasts, side dishes, and meats in this cookbook, and they’re all delicious. I’ve given you some of my very favorite recipes, and I believe that once you taste them, you will understand why I love them. the full color illustrations and the easy to follow instructions will make you love them, too.

“ Frail Blood” is an historical romantic thriller.
California, 1909. A woman straps a pistol to her ankle, walks to her lover’s home, and shoots him. Her motive? After an affair of four months, he jilted her for another woman.
How would an attorney defend the woman in light of her outright confession? Would an all-male jury view her actions with repulsion or pity?
The climate of California in the early twentieth century when women couldn’t vote and men held the real power, where immense wealth rested alongside poverty, held a paradox of contradictions.
The bare bones of this true California court case sparked the idea for the fictional story of Alma Bentley, attorney Malachi Rivers, and Emma Knight, the woman who helps him investigate the case.
When jaded lawyer Malachi Rivers engages newspaper editor Emma Knight to aid him in the case of Alma Bentley, he has no idea they’ll eventually unmask a vile web of family deceit, wickedness, and treachery. Constantly putting herself in harm’s way, the feckless Emma uncovers dark secrets that lie behind the wealthy facade of the Joseph Machado clan.
With her strong opinions, Emma tests Malachi’s patience even while he’s strongly attracted to her. She disagrees with every aspect of his trial strategy, but he defends his client the only way he can – by insisting that a woman, a naturally frail creature, is incapable of committing such a heinous crime.
Emma wants to experience true passion and detests the false notion that women are inferior to men in any way. Even while she confronts Malachi at every turn, she falls ridiculously in love with him.
Readers of historical fiction and mystery/suspense, as well as historical romance, will enjoy the elements at play in this slice of life, fictionalized story of California.

The Whisper Jar by Carole Lanham
Genre(s): Horror
“ I do not know what you have done, but put your mouth right here. Confess your crime to this fruit jar as though it were God’s ear.” ~ from The Whisper Jar
Some secrets are kept in jars — others, in books.
Some are left forgotten in musty rooms — others, created in old barns.
Some are brought about by destiny — others, born in blood.
Secrets — they are the hidden heart of this collection. In these pages, you will encounter a Blood Digger who bonds two children irrevocably together; a young woman who learns of her destiny through the random selection of a Bible verse; and a boy whose life begins to reflect the stories he reads…
“If you like dark, creepy stories with a theme of secrets and dark characters, you’re going to love this (I did!). It’s the perfect read for Halloween, and I can certainly recommend it highly. I had a great time with all of these stories, and it’s no surprise to me that all these stories have won acclaim in their own right.”
Colin F. Barnes, author of Killing my Boss
“Every now and then, a collection of short stories comes along that not only brings creepiness to new levels, but reaches in a little deeper and leaves something behind. The stories in The Whisper Jar are like that…they stick with you like soft voices in the memory. A great book for a dark and stormy night…”
David Niall Wilson, Award-winning author of Deep Blue, This is My Blood, and CEO of Crossroad Press
“Few writers can make love seem so horrible, or horror seem so lovely. The weird scenes Lanham paints for us are poignant and final, with hope strangled – but always in some strangely uplifting way. Perhaps gruesome and memorable are the best words to describe her work.”

Blood Orchids (The Lei Crime Series) by Toby Neal
Genre(s): Mystery & Thrillers
F ast-paced crime mystery with a touch of romance, readers call Blood Orchids “un-putdownable”!
“Sometimes in crime fiction you stumble across a character who lives on beyond the book’s end by virtue of their psychological complexity, and the richness with which the author has drawn them. Will Graham, Jack Reacher, Alex Cross, and now they have a worthy female counterpart in Lei Teixera. Blood Orchids is that rarity among debut novels, in that it satisfies on every level. A powerful new talent is on the scene, whole-heartedly recommended.”-Drew Cross, former police officer and author of BiteMarks

Unfinished (Historical Fiction) by Harper Alibeck
Genre(s): Historical Fiction, Horror
I F LOVE NEVER DIES…then where does it go?
A fraudulent psychic. A soulless declaration. A wealthy heiress whose father is determined to disinherit her. Can love overcome all — or will it need another generation?
Billionaire’s daughter Lilith Stone never imagined she’d (almost) lose her virginity in her father’s Beacon Hill garden, right under his watchful eye. Poor Southie boy James Hillman never intended to fall in love; ambition and wealth meant too much to him.
When this unlikely duo meets for the first time as Lilith’s father tries to have her committed to the mental ward for a repeat performance, both find that “never” means nothing when it comes to love. As James prepares to find his fortune in the mines in Chile, Lilith struggles with the demons of her own past and a sexual proclivity that shatters known medical science assumptions.
With a cast of characters that range from a cuckolded billionaire to a beribboned chihuahua, this Edwardian tale of 1910s love — and loss — asks the question: If love never dies, then where does it go?
Fans of “Dead Again,” “Somewhere in Time” and Possession may enjoy the story of these two souls destined to make history together.
**Note: Unfinished is a work of historical fiction with romantic elements, but it is not a “romance.” Its sequel is Legs, which IS a traditional “romance.” Read the books in this series in any order!**

That’s why he was in the casino, hoping for the big score.
A high-rolling billionaire was there too, looking for a gamble that interested him…like offering a million bucks to spend one night with Josh’s beautiful wife. It was the devil’s deal–and tempting as hell. But just thinking about it was tearing Josh’s marriage apart, and his instincts told him that there was more to this proposal than money and sex.

We All Fall Down by Steven Hart
Genre(s): Mystery & Thrillers, Suspense
“ Fast-moving and twisty . . . delivers one electric jolt after another.”
J.D. Rhoades, author of Breaking Cover and The Devil’s Right Hand
“The characters are complex and winning, the plot tight, and especially
rewarding, the writing itself is excellent.”
Kristy Kiernan, author of Matters of Faith and Catching Genius
As the first and only woman police officer in the fading blue-collar town of Bridgeborough, Karen McCarthy knows she has a lot to prove – to her fellow cops and, even more dauntingly, to herself.
So when she bungles a chance to arrest the number-one suspect in a cop-killing incident, Karen throws herself into the investigation in any way she can manage. Trouble is, the more she learns about the case, the less clear-cut everything seems to be. There is also a cabal of corrupt officers within the force to reckon with, and when Karen comes face-to-face with the killer himself, an already difficult case turns into a threat to her life as well as her police career.
Author and journalist Steven Hart is the author of The Last Three Miles: Politics, Murder, and the Construction of America’s First Superhighway (The New Press, 2007), a widely praised work of narrative history. Now he turns his hand to crime fiction for his first novel.
Already praised by top-notch novelists as a bold new thriller, Steven Hart’s We All Fall Down offers a realistically drawn woman cop who’s neither an adorable ditz nor a fantasy superheroine. Karen McCarthy is a very tough, highly vulnerable woman who is still learning to deal with her demons. For her, every victory is hard-won, and carries a personal cost.

AN EPIC NOVEL FROM IRELAND’S PAST
“Beautifully written, meticulously researched, immensely enjoyable and, by turns, heartbreaking and uplifting”. – Sunday Independent.
The Emmets were Protestants, belonging to the elite society of Ireland’s ruling class. Born in 1778, Robert Emmet was the gentle and diffident youngest son of the State Physician of Ireland, growing up in the heart of a prosperous and loving family, one of the most respected in Dublin city. From his parents ge acquired a deep love of Ireland and a commitment to justice. From his brother Thomas he acquired an understanding of the divisions and inequalities of his country.
It was in the historic year of 1798 that Robert’s life changed from its charted course to one of rebellion. A brilliant student at Trinity, he cast aside all hopes of a scientific career, all the privileges of his class, to join the United Irishmen – a society dedicated to the union of Protestant and Catholic. After the bloody ’98 Rebellion, Robert was forced to flee to France. But even as his boat sailed away from his beloved homeland, he looked back and knew he would return – to the cause of his country’s liberty, and to the beautiful girl he had fallen in love with, Sarah Curran, the daughter of Ireland’s most talented lawyer.
He returned – and met Anne Devlin, a wild and brave Catholic country girl, who became his most devoted and loyal companion.
Set against the background of the beauty of Ireland, the dark clouds of its past, as well as the humour and dreams of its people, this is a passionate and powerful true story of three young people, Robert Emmet, Anne Devlin, and Sarah Curran, drawn together in love, in hope, and tragedy.
“Although I started off thinking this would be a love story, an incredible tale of political corruption began to unfold.” – The Irish Times.

Genre(s): Contemporary Fiction, Chick-Lit
W hat is the common denominator between a down-and-out architect and a ’90s rock legend?

Alligators in the Trees–a line in one of Priscilla’s songs–symbolizes the bugaboos that lurk in the minds of all three characters: in Tobias, the fear he’s lost his talent, and that his string of model mistresses will be the downfall of his soul; in Philip’s guilt-ridden conscious as he struggles with the collapse of his most touted building, and the prospect of losing custody of his daughter if he doesn’t meet his estranged wife’s demands; in Priscilla, the fear of actually making a decision about her life instead of taking the path of least resistance. Fate intervenes and forces the trio to act on their true desires.
