"Most Anticipated Crime Books of 2020" -- CrimeReads "10 Most Anticipated Horror/Thrillers of 2020" -- Bustle "24 Most Anticipated Mysteries / Thrillers of 2020" -- GoodReads "Most Anticipated: The Great First-Half of 2020 Preview" -- The Millions "20 Most Anticipated Debuts of Early 2020" -- Electric Lit "Most Anticipated Books of 2020" -- LitHub "21 Debut Authors to Discover Now" -- GoodReads "2020 Titles to Watch" -- Library Journal "Kate and Miranda are vividly rendered, and an entire novel could easily be crafted out of Miranda''s fascinating diary, letters, and other ephemera, snippets of which are sprinkled liberally throughout. Sligar delivers an intriguing mystery while tackling big themes, especially sexism and the societal restraints placed on women''s bodies and minds. The results are spellbinding. A raw and sophisticated debut." -- Kirkus , starred review "What a clever, visceral thriller. A raw, unfiltered twist on gaslighting that challenges how society treats women. It made me sad, angry, and fired up ." --Araminta Hall, author of Our Kind of Cruelty "A perceptive debut . . . Alternating between chapters focusing on Kate and epistolary documents by the tormented Miranda, Sligar reveals Miranda''s unraveling throughout her brilliant career as she labors with parenthood and life with a manipulative husband . . . Sligar shows off a keen ear for dialogue . . . With a cool style and fast pace, Sligar achieves a propulsive exploration of these ambitious women''s inner turbulence in response to an abusive man in each of their lives." --Publishers Weekly " Take Me Apart is a stunning debut. In gorgeous prose, Sara Sligar creates a haunting and decidedly feminist literary thriller that explores mental illness, violence, and the nature of obsession. I loved this novel so much that I blew off all my responsibilities, turned off my phone, and blistered through the whole thing in one sitting. Unforgettable and thought-provoking, Take Me Apart has my highest recommendation." --Angie Kim, author of Miracle Creek " Take Me Apart is an ambitious, intelligent, and ridiculously readable literary thriller that takes on art, sexism, violence, and mental illness--all set against an evocatively rendered Northern Californian landscape. I''ve lived in the Bay Area for a decade, and though I was quite certain the book''s California town was made up, I still googled "Callinas," just in case. That''s how good Sara Sligar is." --Rachel Khong, author of Goodbye Vitamin " Take Me Apart is such a delicious novel: perfectly plotted, atmospheric, disturbing, sad--even sexy. Sara Sligar brings both the northern California coast and the personal history of a brilliant artist to vivid life. I couldn''t put it down." --Lydia Kiesling, author of The Golden State "A smart, post-modern book that takes on the complexities of gendered mental illness and trauma at an engrossing clip. With a complicated visual artist at its narrative center, Take Me Apart teases out the tensions of visibility and fame versus the hidden, unseen wounds of home and interiority, and asks the hard questions of what it means to create as a woman--create art, create life, and create yourself." --Caite Dolan-Leach, author of Dead Letters "Sara Sligar''s obsession-worthy debut combines the penetrating insight of the best art criticism with the seductive menace of a modern Gothic romance. Take Me Apart is my favorite kind of thriller: masterfully paced and psychologically precise, with subtle twists that reveal themselves like a developing photograph." --Layne Fargo, author of Temper, "Kate and Miranda are vividly rendered, and an entire novel could easily be crafted out of Miranda's fascinating diary, letters, and other ephemera, snippets of which are sprinkled liberally throughout.

    First, eBay is the only place I could find this XXL (it's 8 1/2 X 11). Even my church bookstore didn't have it and didn't know if they could get it again. It's EXACTLY as described in the listing. The bible arrived when it was supposed to and was packaged to prevent any damage through the mail. This seller is honest in the description, the products are reasonable priced. I will definitely buy from again.

    I had this same cookbook when I lived in Dallas in the early 90's and I loved it!! I was so thrilled to find it through a seller on ebay. It arrived quickly and was packaged with great care. I think it was a great price to replace something that meant a lot to me and it is in great condition as described.
