Raising Butterflies in the Garden by Brenda Dziedzic
Raising Butterflies in the Garden is a guide to attracting local species of butterflies and moths in your garden.

The Queen of Paris by Pamela Binnings Ewen
Against the winds of war, with the Wehrmacht marching down the Champs-Élysées, Coco Chanel finds herself residing alongside the Reich's High Command in the Hotel Ritz. Surrounded by the enemy, she wages a private war of her own to wrestle full control of her perfume company from the hands of her Jewish business partner, Pierre Wertheimer. With anti-Semitism on the rise, he has escaped to the United States with the confidential formula for Chanel No. 5. As Paris sinks under the iron fist of German rule, Chanel will do anything to survive.
An Anatomy of Pain by Abdul Ghaaliq Lalkhen
Common conception still equates pain with tissue damage but that is only a very small part of the story--the organ which produces pain is the brain. Case studies show that a woman who has undergone a c-section reports dramatically less pain than a patient who has had kidney stones removed in a similarly invasive operation. The soldier who drags himself or herself to safety after being shot deals with pain in a remarkably different way from someone suffering a similar injury on a street. The truth is that pain is a complex mix of nerve endings, psychological state, social preconceptions, and situational awareness.
