Fricker B: She Died Young

She Died Young

A Life in Fragments

detebe

Jeder Mensch giert nach Publicity - so der Fernseh- und Musikproduzent Marhenke. Diesen Drang macht er sich rücksichtslos zunutze. Gut fürs Geschäft ist ein Schlagersänger im Rollstuhl, auch wenn der eigentlich völlig gesund ist. Und wenn der Star aus einer Ärzteserie anfängt, in öffentlichen Veranstaltungen den Heiler zu spielen, ist auch das gut für die Schlagzeilen. Je geschmackloser, desto besser. Die Fernsehmacher reiben sich die Hände und das Publikum die Augen.&nbsp;Charles Lewinsky hat in jungen Jahren viel fürs Fernsehen geschrieben. Damals entstand auch dieser Debütroman: eine bitterböse Satire über das große Business mit der Sensationslust.

When life crumbles, don’t quit—bake a better batch! What if every failure was just the preheat before your greatest comeback? In Bake It Til You Make It, powerhouse entrepreneur Molly Blakeley serves up a wildly inspiring, laugh-out-loud, no-filter story about turning life’s messiest moments into the ultimate recipe for success: resilience, grit, and a dash of faith. Molly’s journey is anything but cookie-cutter. From owning an Alaskan lodge and running restaurants to managing flower shops, roller derby, and launching dress boutiques—her twenties and thirties were a whirlwind of big dreams, epic crashes, and fierce comebacks. Every venture—whether it soared or sank—taught her one thing: you can’t lose if you never stop rising. Then came the cookies. One late night after a business deal gone wrong. Molly was down to her last $150 in a rural Alaska town. Molly’s spark turned into a full-blown flavor revolution. Bourbon. Bacon. Amaretto cherries. Molly Bz cookies exploded from her kitchen to QVC, Costco, Walmart, and Target—with just pure hustle, heart, and holy determination. In this bold, hilarious, and brutally honest book, Molly shows you how to turn your setbacks into setups for your biggest wins. You’ll learn how to: <ul> <li>Flip rejection into rocket fuel</li> <li>Use chaos as your creativity gym</li> <li>Turn wild ideas into can’t-resist brands</li> <li>Keep the faith when all you’ve got left is grit</li> </ul> Part business playbook, part comeback story, and 100% inspiration, Bake It Til You Make It is your reminder that the sweetest victories rise from the messiest beginnings. So grab your apron (and your dreams), because it’s time to bake something amazing—starting with you.

The Story of a Risk-Taking Cookie Queen

Bake It 'Til You Make It

»Ein Buch wie eine gute Party, auf der wir lauter neue, coole Frauen kennenlernen – vom ersten Satz an fesselnd.« Petra Gerster

Alte Frauen

From eldest daughter Shari Franke, the shocking true story behind the viral&nbsp;8 Passengers&nbsp;family vlog –&nbsp;now the subject of a new Disney+&nbsp;docuseries –&nbsp;and the hidden abuse she suffered at the hands of her mother, and how, in the face of unimaginable pain, she found freedom and healing. Shari Franke’s childhood was a constant battle for survival. Her mother, Ruby Franke, enforced a severe moral code while maintaining a façade of a picture-perfect family for their wildly popular YouTube channel 8 Passengers, which documented the day-to-day life of raising six children for a staggering 2.5 million subscribers. But a darker truth lurked beneath the surface&nbsp;– Ruby’s wholesome online persona masked a more tyrannical parenting style than anyone could have imagined. As the family’s YouTube notoriety grew, so too did Ruby’s delusions of righteousness. Fueled by the sadistic influence of relationship coach Jodi Hildebrandt, together they implemented an inhumane and merciless disciplinary regime. Ruby and Jodi were arrested in Utah in 2023 on multiple charges of aggravated child abuse. On that fateful day, Shari shared a photo online of a police car outside their home. Her caption had one word: 'Finally'. For the first time, Shari will reveal the disturbing truth behind 8 Passengers and her family’s devastating involvement with Jodi Hildebrandt’s cultish life coaching program, 'ConneXions'. No stone is left unturned as Shari exposes the perils of influencer culture and shares for the first time her battle for truth and survival in the face of her mother’s cruelty.

The Little Book of Las Vegas

Whatever happened to the weirdos? The rock'n'roll rebels? The children of The Revolution who not so much raged against The Man as barely acknowledged the concept of authority? Like vividly plumed birds of paradise whose habitat is gone, they're practically extinct. In their place? The communal voice of the on-trend musical activist, forever saying and doing The Right Thing. The opposite, in fact, of what we used to know as the free-wheelin' rock 'n' roll nutter... Sylvia Patterson remembers them. The freaks, geeks and oddballs who picked up microphones and instruments not to become rich or famous but because they were too mad (or unemployable) to do anything else. The true radicals and loose cannon lunatics who pandered to zero PC tropes, and even less societal rules, determined to live their&nbsp;worst&nbsp;lives. I'm Not With The Man&nbsp;is the freaky flipside to her award-winning memoir&nbsp;I'm Not With The Band, celebrating the era of 'the rock 'n' roll nutter' through her own encounters with some of music's most uncompromising mavericks. From a cursing Adam Ant to a formidable Chrissie Hynde, from a carousing Liam Gallagher to a coruscating Sinead O'Connor, from a comedy Wu Tang Clan to an unrepentant Marianne Faithfull, from a fragile Evan Dando to a furious Thom Yorke... and many, many more. Hilarious, revealing and poignant,&nbsp;I'm Not With The Man&nbsp;is a farewell fanfare to the heroically unhinged, who lived on the edge of not only society but their own precarious sanity. Deliberately. We will not see their like again.

From the Costa-shortlisted author of I'm Not with the Band, a collection of interviews with the weird and wonderful musicians who defined an iconic era

A Writer’s Life with the Music Mavericks

I'm Not With The Man

“Such a cute baby, where did you get her?”
“This is such a good thing you are doing.”
“My friends were lucky, they got a white baby.”
Born in Germany in the 1960s to war-traumatized&nbsp;parents, Martina Dahlmanns&nbsp;grew up in middle class suburbia, surrounded by loaded silences and unacknowledged prejudice. But she believes she’s left those prejudices behind when, in her thirties, she moves to South Africa and becomes the adoptive mother of three black children.
Unable to answer increasingly difficult questions from her eldest, Lele, Martina turns to a community dialogue group. There, she meets Tumi Jonas-Mpofu, a young black woman from Gugulethu, whose friendship will define Martina’s life and force her to reckon with the enduring impact of her privilege.
This timely and deeply personal memoir is a celebration of chosen family—but beyond that, it is an acute examination of the legacy of racism in adoption.

'An instant classic' NIGELLA LAWSON 'Sweeping, intimate, defiant and brimming with love' LOUISE KENNEDY 'It is the roots that keep the trees from falling during a storm. Olia Hercules tells us that the same is true for people and nations' SERHII PLOKHY I am writing this story without knowing its end: it begins long before I was born and will continue long after I die. I am writing this story to help myself heal and to make you understand. Strong Roots is the story of a century in Ukraine told through four generations of one extraordinary family. It takes us from years of Russification, to Olia's grandmother's deportation to snowy wastelands under Stalin, to her Aunt Zhenia's school protest, to her own parents' flight from Ukraine when their town was occupied in 2022. This is an ode to the land, to ideas of home and belonging, and to family stories and recipes passed down the generations - the tang of sour cherries, the best way to make borsch. It is an account of resilience in the hardest of circumstances. Strong Roots brims with hope and grief. It lays bare the compromises and betrayals of generations struggling and surviving through war, peace, invasion and exile. It is an uplifting reminder of how much the human spirit can endure when born from a land rich with strong roots.
