![]() ![]() ![]() Poor whites were central to the rise of the Republican Party in the early nineteenth century and the Civil War itself was fought over class issues nearly as much as it was fought over slavery. In this landmark book, Nancy Isenberg argues that the voters who boosted Trump all the way to the White House have been a permanent part of the American fabric, and reveals how the wretched and landless poor have existed from the time of the earliest British colonial settlements to today's hillbillies. ![]() Poor whites were central to the rise of the Republican Party in the early nineteenth century and the Civil War itself was fought over class issues nearly as much as it was fo. ![]() ![]() You can change your choices at any time by visiting Cookie Preferences, as described in the Cookie Notice. ![]() Click ‘Customise Cookies’ to decline these cookies, make more detailed choices, or learn more.

It’s action packed, with a beautiful world building, and a good dash of romance. Trust me this is a series you want to read if you haven’t yet. Set at an academy that, in the same vein as Harry Potter, trains young Dhampirs in the arts of combat to protect the Royal Moroi against the evil Strigoi vampires. A series that delved into the trope of royals before it was a thing (the Moroi). Not to mention, this is also the one series I’ve considered getting corresponding tattoos (molnija marks). And there’s the Dmitri, and the chemistry between him and Rose just make me sigh. ![]() If you know how many books we’ve read, then you know that is an incredible feat. ![]() Rose is, to this day, one of our favorite heroines EVER.

To flip through the pages of a 13th century manuscript, one might believe the medieval era was beleaguered by more snaky dragons and man-murdering bunnies than temperamental tween girls. ![]() ![]() ![]() Will will see any familiar characters in this one?
