Behind Closed Doors
Abuse, Survival, and Endurance at the Lourdes Home Orphanage by Clare L.D. White
Please take good care of my baby, thinks Maggie, as she places Dorita in the arms of a nun at the Lourdes Home orphanage in Gozo, Malta. The young mother has no way of knowing that Lourdes Home will eventually become notorious, its name synonymous with orphan abuse. Dorita is only supposed to stay at the orphanage for a matter of months but an accident and a coverup by the nuns mean that she will be held there for almost sixteen years. Yet all along, Dorita believes her mother is out there somewhere, and that someday she will be set free again. Based on the author’s own experience, Behind Closed Doors is a story of survival of body, mind, and spirit against incredible odds in the face of regular abuse at the hands of those in power. It is also a testament to the power in moments of kindness, love, and grace.

The We're Still Here Book Club. Volume One: Elbows Up!
by Jeff Richardson
What is wrong with the world when the disappearance of a single red baseball cap with an American political slogan on it—yes, one of those hats—can threaten the very existence of Canada? Yet isn’t there something absurdly fitting about the fact that, at the centre of this international crisis, stands a group of aging friends who meet once a month to discuss novels, drink too much wine, and (not always gently) dissect one another’s lives? Having met for more than twenty years, they call themselves The We’re Still Here Book Club—a name perhaps once jokingly defiant but now an all-too-real challenge to the US president himself. This ensemble of spirited friends—outspoken Muriel and practical Eleanor; kind-hearted Shirin and mystical Lumira; data-minded Deborah and convivial Brad; and the oldest of them all, steadfast octogenarian Audrey—find themselves forced to orchestrate not only the survival of their friendship but of Canada too. Set in the fictitious and picturesque Canadian-US border town of Brockton, Ontario, this unexpected tale is part sharp-edged satire and part tender portrait of aging, friendship, and patriotism. The We’re Still Here Book Club. Volume One: Elbows Up! celebrates the resilience, and the occasional folly, of people determined to stay standing—elbows up, the Canadian way—no matter what fresh chaos the world serves them.

by Dallas Lacey
Robert Robert Robertson wants to commit suicide—and not just because of his stupid name.

After a lifetime of bad behavior, will he learn to forgive his parents for being so boring? Will he win back the woman he loves? Will he pay the price for stealing all that money?

Mad Spiders and Fishermen
by W.E. Tarnowsky
Booker is a spider who lives with his family—wife Silken and five children—in a community of other spiders. The community is located in an abandoned cabin, which has been mythologized in a legend about mysterious beings who built the place, then left it, with the warning that they would someday return. As is foreshadowed, Bart, the son of the previous owner, turns up and sweeps away the spider community. The spiders survive, but their shelter and food sources are taken away, leaving them in dire straits. Booker takes it upon himself to win back the cabin for the sake of his family and friends, but he soon learns that diplomacy may be more effective than force in achieving his aims.

My Drive Through Hell
A Divine Intervention, A True Story by Judy Isiah Foran
My Drive Through Hell: A Divine Intervention is the personal story of Judy Foran’s journey through pain, betrayal, and faith. After a devastating accident leaves her with severe injuries and a diagnosis of Complex Regional Pain Syndrome, Judy’s world turns upside down. She endures a long period of recovery marked by numerous doctor visits, unhelpful lawyers, and the cold bureaucracy of insurance companies. But her physical pain is only part of the story. Trust is tested as friends proved false and betray her, while strangers step in as unexpected angels. A terrifying event while out of the country lands Judy in a foreign mental health institution, unsure if she’ll ever see home again. Through every trial, however, glimmers of grace appeared—moments that can only be explained as divine intervention. Judy’s story is a powerful reminder that miracles happen every day, often when we least expect them. Through faith, perseverance, and the belief that God walks beside us even in our darkest moments, My Drive Through Hell shows that troubles can strengthen us and serve as a window to seeing the hand of God at work.
