Building off her wildly popular viral essays "Losing My Ambition" and "The Mindfuck of Mid-Life," rising star Amil Niazi explores what life looks like "post-ambition." With sly humor and a deep literary sensibility, she interrogates her own evolving ambitions, and how they intersect with adulthood, motherhood, age, identity, class, and race, and how it has shaped her and a generation of Millennials. And, most importantly, now that she is "done with ambition" -- what happens next? Life After Ambition is an achingly relatable, intensely funny punch to the gut which reveals that, though we hide them from one another, we all have the same painful bruises. Niazi has written a book that is, at its core, about optimism, about the joy of choosing something different, and about the thrill of finding ourselves when we thought all was lost. A whip-smart reimagination of how to live our lives, Life After Ambition will set the stage for rising star Amil Niazi for many years (and books) to come"-- Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://sitka.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S49C129917556</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://sitka.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S49C129917556</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Niazi, Amil]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 31 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://sitka.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/129917556049</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>A &quot;good Enough&quot; Memoir</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780771005213/MC.GIF&amp;client=bclibcoop&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[No Place Like Home]]></title><description><![CDATA["From award-winning journalist Jessica Barrett, an honest and urgent look at our housing crisis and lessons from around the world that will make better homes for all Canadians. After living in Vancouver for her entire adult life, Jessica Barrett packed up her apartment, quit her dream job as a magazine editor, and headed for Calgary in search of an affordable place to call home. In the years since Barrett was priced out of Vancouver, the issue of housing affordability has become a national crisis, fanning the flames of social inequality and setting us up for financial ruin. But our obsession with rising housing prices obscures a more complex and pressing issue: we have lost our reverence for and our understanding of home. In No Place Like Home, Barrett dives behind the headlines and statistics of Canada's housing crisis to examine how it has eaten away at our psyches by undermining our human needs for belonging, connection, and stability. Through a mix of powerful memoir and rigorous journalism, she delivers an eye-opening portrait of our housing system while scouring the world for examples of how we might do things differently, pulling inspiration from the slum communities of Harare, Zimbabwe, the stately streets of Vienna, Austria, and the Cold-war era apartment blocks of West Berlin. In the process, Barrett forms a framework for solutions and the basis for achievable change. Her biggest discovery? We cannot solve our housing crisis until we first address our crisis of home."-- Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://sitka.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S49C129623459</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://sitka.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S49C129623459</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Barrett, Jessica]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 31 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://sitka.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/129623459049</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>The Missing Key to Our Housing Crisis</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780735250253/MC.GIF&amp;client=bclibcoop&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Anon]]></title><description><![CDATA["Anon" is a fascinating memoir about the frontiers of technology and the future of romantic relationships by a digital anthropologist who embarked on a multi-year experiment with AI companion technology.]]></description><link>https://sitka.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S49C129609857</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://sitka.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S49C129609857</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Hagel, Caia]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 31 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://sitka.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/129609857049</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>The Future of Love and Friendship in the Age of AI : A Memoir</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781443473910/MC.GIF&amp;client=bclibcoop&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Unshaming]]></title><description><![CDATA[It's been over a decade since Jowita Bydlowska published her bestselling lightning rod of a memoir on overcoming alcohol addiction as a young mother. Both hailed and criticized for its no-holds-barred transparency, Drunk Mom was--and continues to be--refreshing and revelatory in its gritty exploration of addiction and relapse in the context of new parenthood, specifically from the experience of a woman. But what happens after the last page is turned, after the "happy ending" of an addiction the world assumes is safely in the rearview? When Bydlowska relapses after the success of her book, her overwhelming sense is one of shame. She struggles to reconcile the knowledge that she's helped bring comfort and hope to countless readers with her own frustration and mounting fear that the truth will only let others down. In prose that is by turns harsh and beautiful, tender and devastating, she writes about her ensuing spiral into alcoholism--and the climb back up and out. Unshaming is a raw, unsparing navigation of the intricacies of shame. With the same generosity and grim humour that made Drunk Mom such a standout, Bydlowska uses her own story as a vehicle to interrogate and challenge the narrative surrounding addiction, exploring the ways in which the conversation has both evolved and stayed the same over the last decade. Told with breathtaking narrative immediacy, Unshaming transcends the typical self-help memoir and punches through every expectation about what the perfect woman, mother, and writer in recovery should look like.]]></description><link>https://sitka.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S49C129600145</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://sitka.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S49C129600145</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Bydlowska, Jowita]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 31 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://sitka.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/129600145049</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>A Memoir of Recovery, Relapse, and What Comes After</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780771020674/MC.GIF&amp;client=bclibcoop&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Giving up Is Unforgivable]]></title><description><![CDATA["The first book from Joyce White Vance: equal parts civics class, history lesson, and call to save the Republic, Giving Up Is Unforgivable is a political manifesto for our present moment. "We're in this together." For the past two years, Joyce Vance has signed off posts on her chart-topping Substack, Civil Discourse, with these four words. In that time, she's guided readers through a continued erosion of democratic norms, the unprecedented felony conviction of an ex-president, and the approaching specter of a second Trump administration. Now that it's upon us, Vance helps us understand how to avoid burnout and despair and exercise the democratic muscles we need to save the Republic. Giving Up Is Unforgivable is a clarion call to action-putting our current crisis in historical context and sketching out a vision for where we go next. Vance's message is hopeful at its heart, even as it acknowledges the daunting challenges that lie ahead. She is the constitutional law professor you never knew you needed, explaining the legal context, the political history, and the practical reasons that the rule of law still matters, while also empowering you to do something-from the small (that conversation you've been meaning to have with your uncle or volunteering for your favorite political cause) to the big (starting a grassroots movement or running for political office). Consider this the birth of a countermovement to Project 2025, a rallying cry for citizen engagement to counter the second Trump administration and save American democracy"--]]></description><link>https://sitka.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S49C129900890</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://sitka.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S49C129900890</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Vance, Joyce]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://sitka.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/129900890049</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>A Manual for Keeping A Democracy</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9798217178117/MC.GIF&amp;client=bclibcoop&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Nazi and the Psychiatrist]]></title><description><![CDATA[Ace reportage on the unique relationship between a prison physician and one of the Third Reich's highest ranking officials.]]></description><link>https://sitka.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S49C129900863</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://sitka.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S49C129900863</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[El-Hai, Jack]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://sitka.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/129900863049</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>Hermann Göring, Dr. Douglas M.

However, at age 32, with big dreams and few tools to actualize them, he dedicated himself to learning the key skill that had evaded him his entire life: reading. Oliver has become a TikTok/BookTok sensation for the way he's candidly documented his decision to learn to read as an adult, and his struggles and triumphs along the way. Here, he tells the full story behind his journey for the first time through the 21 key books that shaped and informed his experience. His story reveals the ways in which reading can teach each of us how to be better, more empathetic people. In just 365 days, Oliver went from barely being able to read a restaurant menu to closing in on his goal of finishing 100 books in a year. Unread is a moving reminder to all of us that words and stories have power, and that, no matter our past, it's never too late to grow."--Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://sitka.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S49C129916697</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://sitka.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S49C129916697</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[James, Oliver]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 31 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://sitka.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/129916697049</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>A Memoir of Learning (and Loving) to Read on TikTok</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781454959403/MC.GIF&amp;client=bclibcoop&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Brother CE6085T]]></title><description><![CDATA[Product number 888-N22]]></description><link>https://sitka.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S49C129939604</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://sitka.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S49C129939604</guid><category><![CDATA[UK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><pubDate>Invalid Date</pubDate><comments>https://sitka.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/129939604049</comments><format>UK</format><subtitle>Sewing Machine</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url/></item><item><title><![CDATA[Brother CE6085T]]></title><description><![CDATA[Product number 888-N22]]></description><link>https://sitka.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S49C129939598</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://sitka.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S49C129939598</guid><category><![CDATA[UK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><pubDate>Invalid Date</pubDate><comments>https://sitka.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/129939598049</comments><format>UK</format><subtitle>Sewing Machine</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url/></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sewing Machine]]></title><description><![CDATA[120v 60hz 43w]]></description><link>https://sitka.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S49C129939562</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://sitka.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S49C129939562</guid><category><![CDATA[UK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><pubDate>Invalid Date</pubDate><comments>https://sitka.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/129939562049</comments><format>UK</format><subtitle>Brother CE6085T</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url/></item><item><title><![CDATA[Brother CE6085T]]></title><description><![CDATA[product number 888-N22]]></description><link>https://sitka.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S49C129939568</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://sitka.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S49C129939568</guid><category><![CDATA[UK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><pubDate>Invalid Date</pubDate><comments>https://sitka.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/129939568049</comments><format>UK</format><subtitle>Sewing Machine</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url/></item><item><title><![CDATA[Brother CE6085T]]></title><description><![CDATA[product number 888-N22]]></description><link>https://sitka.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S49C129939572</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://sitka.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S49C129939572</guid><category><![CDATA[UK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><pubDate>Invalid Date</pubDate><comments>https://sitka.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/129939572049</comments><format>UK</format><subtitle>Sewing Machine</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url/></item><item><title><![CDATA[Brother CE6085T]]></title><description><![CDATA[Product number 888-N22]]></description><link>https://sitka.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S49C129939580</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://sitka.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S49C129939580</guid><category><![CDATA[UK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><pubDate>Invalid Date</pubDate><comments>https://sitka.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/129939580049</comments><format>UK</format><subtitle>Sewing Machine White</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url/></item><item><title><![CDATA[A Hymn to Life]]></title><description><![CDATA[A Hymn to Life will tell Gisèle Pelicot's story in her words, offer solace and hope, and make a positive contribution to changing the conversation around shame and to changing the world.

Knowing the truth, what's real from what's fake, should be easy. In today's world, that's far from the case. In  The Certainty Illusion , Timothy Caulfield lifts the curtain on the forces contributing to our information chaos and unpacks why it's so difficult-sometimes even for experts-to escape the fake.Whether it's science, our own desire to be good and do the right thing, or the stories and opinions of others, there's more to sussing out the truth than simply tracking down what  feels  like an authoritative source. Caulfield argues that these major forces-science, goodness, and opinion-drive beliefs and behaviour, but the ways that they can be corrupted, or worse, used to nefarious ends by bad actors, are endless.While it may feel, at times, as though we are circling the drain of truth, especially as new technologies make it even easier to spread dangerous fictions, Caulfield pulls us out of the vortex and keeps us afloat, helping us recognize and combat the forces that threaten to pull us under.]]></description><link>https://sitka.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S49C129900302</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://sitka.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S49C129900302</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Caulfield, Timothy]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Invalid Date</pubDate><comments>https://sitka.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/129900302049</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>What You Don&apos;t Know and Why It Matters</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780735245907/MC.GIF&amp;client=bclibcoop&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Migrant Work by Another Name]]></title><description><![CDATA["Migrant Work by Another Name explores the complexities of Canada's evolving international migration and employment policy landscape. It critically examines the shift towards “mobility” programs under the recently inaugurated International Mobility Program (IMP). This shift occurs alongside the contraction of certain streams within Canada’s long-standing Temporary Foreign Worker Program (TFWP). The book investigates the implications of policy changes, influenced at once by public outcry over migrant worker exploitation and persistent demands for labour in the face of qualitative labour shortages in high-income countries like Canada. Grounded in a decolonial feminist political economy approach, Leah F. Vosko employs a mixed methods analysis to contrast the narrative of “mobility” with the persistent realities of precarity among transnational workers. The book features in-depth case studies of the three largest IMP subprograms – Working Holiday, Post-Graduation, and Spousal Work Permit programs – revealing how these initiatives, despite being touted as promoting mobility, provide for temporary migrant work by another name and perpetuate distinct forms of precarity. This critical perspective challenges the notion of progress in contemporary migration policies, shedding light on the ongoing challenges faced by transnational workers in Canada."--]]></description><link>https://sitka.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S49C129560120</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://sitka.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S49C129560120</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Vosko, Leah F.]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://sitka.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/129560120049</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>Differential Inclusion and Precarity in Canada’s International Mobility Program</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781487566074/MC.GIF&amp;client=bclibcoop&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sight Word Comics]]></title><description><![CDATA[Learn to read the most commonly used Dolch sight words, essential for reading fluency.

It also examines how these elements shape broader institutional relationships under the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms and in comparative perspective. This interdisciplinary volume offers valuable, in-depth analyses of timely issues, cases, and controversies involving rights and institutional dynamics. The book employs an array of methods, including legal analysis, qualitative case studies, content analysis, legal theory, research interviews, and policy analysis. With a forward-looking perspective, Rights and Parliamentary Systems in Canada and Beyond investigates how rights-based processes influence specific policies and offers new insights into the framing of rights, including administrative law and Aboriginal treaty rights during the COVID-19 pandemic. It also explores how aspects of parliamentary democracy affect governments, legislators, and the public. The book ultimately reveals how the institutional relationships at stake operate to protect--or fail to protect--rights in relation to government policy objectives.]]></description><link>https://sitka.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S49C129939182</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://sitka.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S49C129939182</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://sitka.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/129939182049</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781487559540/MC.GIF&amp;client=bclibcoop&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Follow Me to Hell]]></title><description><![CDATA["Tom Clavin's Follow Me to Hell is the explosive true story of how legendary Ranger Leander McNelly and his men brought justice to a lawless Texan frontier. In turbulent 1870s Texas, the revered and fearless Ranger Leander McNelly led his men in one dramatic campaign after another, throwing cattle thieves, desperadoes, border ruffians, and other dangerous criminals into jail or, if that's how they wanted it, six feet under. They would stop at nothing in pursuit of justice, even sending 26 Rangers across the border to retrieve stolen cattle--taking on hundreds of Mexican troops with nothing but their Sharps rifles and six-guns. The nation came to call them "McNelly's Rangers." Set against the backdrop of 200 years of thrilling Texas Rangers history, this page-turner takes readers into the tough life along the Texas border that was tamed by a courageous, yet doomed, captain and his team of fearless men. It was one hell of a ride!"--]]></description><link>https://sitka.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S49C129939191</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://sitka.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S49C129939191</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Clavin, Tom]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 31 Jan 2023 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://sitka.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/129939191049</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>McNelly&apos;s Texas Rangers and the Rise of Frontier Justice</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781250214577/MC.GIF&amp;client=bclibcoop&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[How Women Won the Vote]]></title><description><![CDATA["From Newbery Honor medalist Susan Campbell Bartoletti and in time to celebrate the 100th anniversary of women's suffrage in America comes the page-turning, stunningly illustrated, and tirelessly researched story of the little-known DC Women's March of 1913.
