Randall (Randy) Blythe unflinchingly wrote about some of the most harrowing episodes of his past. Now, in his highly anticipated follow-up "Just Beyond the Light," Blythe shares how he works daily to maintain positivity in a world that feels like it is spinning out of control. In his own words, "Just Beyond the Light" is a "tight, concise roadmap of how I have attempted to maintain what I believe to be a proper perspective in life, even during difficult times." Written with a scathing balance of hard-edged reality offset by a knowing humor and a razor-sharp wit, voiced in his inimitable, conversational, everyman-philosopher style, Blythe clearly breaks down his approach to life, which is a personal and idiosyncratic mix of sobriety, art, and surfing. He writes movingly of his childhood in the South, of fallen friends, of what he's learned touring the world as the vocalist of a successful heavy metal band, and of the very real ways he is doing what he can to leave the world a better place. Above all, he offers readers hope that balance, real balance, is possible, even (or especially) when things seem hopeless. Compelling, compassionate, and refreshingly honest, "Just Beyond the Light" ultimately reminds readers that "as long as we keep our feet (and minds) planted firmly on the ground that is reality, the sky isn't falling- it never has been, and it never will.""-- Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://delawarelibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S105C4308129</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://delawarelibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S105C4308129</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Blythe, D.

In their introductory craft essay, co-editors Luke Hankins and Nomi Stone grapple with questions of closure, wholeness, pleasure, power, universalism, subjectivity, discord, exclusion, resistance, surprise, and bewilderment. Finding fracturing points in their own conversation while considering the aesthetics, ethics, and politics of different kinds of endings, the editors consider such questions as the value of epiphany, what kinds of endings might be likelier to be commodified, how the poem and the mind keep going beyond the page, and more. Hankins and Stone also offer a taxonomy of ending types to think with. This groundbreaking anthology includes poems about mystery, love, dread, cruelty, violence and war; poems of motherhood; of disability; of masculinity; of queerness; of baldness. Poems of transforming bodies and Black joy and failure and hope. The poems sometimes break into blossom; other times, they just break.

At sixteen she was starring in the hit sitcom Moesha and became the first Black actress to play Cinderella on screen alongside fairy godmother, Whitney Houston. Yet as the accolades piled up, so too did the pressure to maintain a flawless image. To onlookers, she had crafted the blueprint for the teenage 'it' girl. But behind closed doors 'The Vocal Bible' as she was known, was struggling. In this piercing, revelatory memoir, Brandy shares: the inside stories behind her most iconic songs and albums, her star-studded connections with Whitney Houston and Diana Ross, the affirmation of friends and family, including her brother Ray J, that helped her through challenging times; and so much more. Delving into the humble roots of her decades-spanning career, her early struggles with bullies and insecurities as a high schooler, and finally her inspirational journey to reclaim her sense of self and her autonomy as a woman in Hollywood and in music, this memoir is an insightful meditation on Brandy's life and how she rose to become the woman she is today. Told through a series of breathtaking vignettes and never-before-seen family photographs in a full-color insert, Phases is a fearless and remarkable story of hope, resilience and the strength it takes to make peace with the past."-- Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://delawarelibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S105C4294557</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://delawarelibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S105C4294557</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Brandy]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 31 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://delawarelibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/4294557105</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>A Memoir</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781335013279/MC.GIF&amp;client=clcpolaris&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=1581837766</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sourdough Everything]]></title><description><![CDATA[A step-by-step guide to baking and designing beautiful sourdough breads, treats, and sweets with sourdough superstar Rachel Pardoe.

This fascinating book of 101 botany prompts is about the joy of getting to know plants in much the same way we get to know birds, through observation and attention. Let's Botanize! is a guide to learning about and understanding the world of plants, a hobby that can ease stress, bring joy, and deepen your connection with the incredible diversity of life all around you. With easy entry points and lush photography, the 101 prompts inspire readers to engage with plant life meaningfully each day by observing the parts, patterns, and processes that make plants so amazing. Examine a bud at the tip of a branch--does it have hairs or scales? What is the most brightly colored plant part you can find that is not a flower or a fruit? Listen to the plants--what sounds do you hear them making? Follow the prompts on dedicated walks in the woods, on your sidewalk, on your commute to work, or even in your kitchen! Revisit prompts at different times of year, in different countries, climates, and ecosystems. As you learn more, you may even find that revisiting the same prompt and the same tree can provide a completely different perspective as you become more familiar with the wonderful world of plants."-- Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://delawarelibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S105C4301480</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://delawarelibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S105C4301480</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Goulet-Scott, Ben]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 31 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://delawarelibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/4301480105</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>101 Ways to Connect With Plants</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781635869040/MC.GIF&amp;client=clcpolaris&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=on1522714340</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Cure]]></title><link>https://delawarelibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S105C4320725</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://delawarelibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S105C4320725</guid><category><![CDATA[MUSIC_CD]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Bradshaw, Jeff]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://delawarelibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/4320725105</comments><format>MUSIC_CD</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=/MC.GIF&amp;client=clcpolaris&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=1578183549&amp;upc=039911132425</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Chasing Freedom]]></title><description><![CDATA["An exquisitely crafted memoir, sweeping from Zimbabwe to Oxford, that lays bare the violent, enduring legacy of colonialism on both a country and a family"-- Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://delawarelibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S105C4301467</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://delawarelibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S105C4301467</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Chigudu, Simukai]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 31 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://delawarelibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/4301467105</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>Coming of Age at the End of Empire</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780593443699/MC.GIF&amp;client=clcpolaris&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=1523827176</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Crafting for your Cat]]></title><description><![CDATA["From chic accessories like matching friendship necklaces to unique scratchers and beds that will have your cat lounging in style."-- Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://delawarelibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S105C4297941</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://delawarelibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S105C4297941</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Hinds, Annika]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 31 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://delawarelibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/4297941105</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>25 Playful Projects for You and your Feline Friends</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781797236827/MC.GIF&amp;client=clcpolaris&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=1535798131</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Happiest Kids Crafts in the World!]]></title><description><![CDATA["Discover the joy of creativity, confidence and happiness with this fun-filled craft book that will spark your imagination, build your skills and inspire kindness--all while using everyday materials for endless, joy filled crafting adventures!
