My Fat Little Rule Book: how a fashionista finally reconciled with being a foodie, and lost the "evil and obstinate last ten pounds." Jacquie Somerville is equally crazy about both food and fashion, and, as many of us can attest, these two passions usually cannot peacefully coexist. I mean, how does one reconcile Gucci with Gorgonzola, and Dolce & Gabbana with dulce de leche? It's a dilemma...until now. Jacquie wrote My Fat Little Rule Book as a guide for herself, and outlines the 15 rules that enabled her to finally achieve her goal weight after decades of struggle. No gimmicks, no tricks, just plain common sense advice on how to lose those unwanted extra pounds. A detailed and entertaining account of Jacquie's 35-day diet and exercise plan, My Fat Little Rule Book delivers Jacquie's irreverent and humorous musings on everything from clothing and cuisine, to lust and motivation. Weaving raw and hilarious personal journal entries with the 15 rules and their accompanying -- and shockingly honest -- postscript notes, My Fat Little Rule Book is a refreshing read that many women (and men) will relate to. Jacquie's rules are foolproof, easy, and if she can do it, so can you. The work is also full of surprises, particularly when one realizes this book isn't only about Marc Jacobs and mousse cake, but rather, it goes much deeper, digging into the importance of setting goals and how achieving -- or not achieving -- them can impact one's sense of self-worth. My Fat Little Rule Book: an entertaining, no-nonsense guide to get you where you want to be. Finally.

When antiques appraiser Virginia Blythe finds a murdered woman in the art studio of a gloomy mansion, she's stunned to realize that she recognizes the victim. Who would have strangled eccentric but harmless Alice Aberfoyle, and why? Virginia's boss, George Schlegel, and Detective Joe Hanratty are determined to find the killer, but the investigation is going nowhere. Then Virginia meets a quartet of frustrated ghosts who attended an art class in the studio in 1928 and still gather there to this day. As one of them, Lillian Throckmorton, spins a mesmerizing tale of their time together, Virginia suspects that they hold the key to solving the murder. But getting to the truth is trickier than she ever imagined-and more dangerous too. Set in posh Jazz Age Toronto, The Spirits of South Drive weaves together a taut present-day murder investigation with an unforgettable tragedy. It is the sequel to Virginia's Ghost.
