[BookPerk] TODAY'S DEALS [The Enchanted] The Enchanted by Rene Denfeld When a woman visits a death row inmate who finds escape in his books and in re-imagining life around him, she uncovers wrenching truths that challenge familiar notions of victim and criminal, innocence and guilt, honesty and corruption—ultimately revealing shocking secrets of her own. The Enchanted is a magical novel about redemption, the poetry that can exist within the unfathomable, and the human capacity to transcend and survive even the most nightmarish reality. Beautiful and unexpected, this is a memorable story. $1.99 Originally: $9.14 [PURCHASE FROM HC.COM] [AMAZON] [B&N] [IBOOKS] [GOOGLE] [KOBO] [INDIEBOUND] --------------------------------------------------------------- [One Wish] One Wish by Robyn Carr Grace Dillon was a champion figure skater until she moved to Thunder Point to escape the ruthless world of fame and competition.

Its survival has been an incredible journey, especially considering how often Jews have tried to kill it themselves. Underlying Neal Karlen's unique, brashly entertaining, yet thoroughly researched telling of the language's story is the notion that Yiddish is a mirror of Jewish history, thought, and practice—for better and worse. The Story of Yiddish is a delightful tale of a people, their place in the world, and the fascinating language that held them together. $1.99 Originally: $12.99 [PURCHASE FROM HC.COM] [AMAZON] [B&N] [IBOOKS] [GOOGLE] [KOBO] [INDIEBOUND] --------------------------------------------------------------- [Reagan at Reykjavik] Reagan at Reykjavik by Ken Adelman A dramatic account of the historic 1986 Reagan-Gorbachev summit in Iceland—the turning point in the Cold War—by Ken Adelman, Reagan's arms control director and a key player in that weekend's world-changing events.
