  On bookshelves around the world, surrounded by ordinary books bound in paper and leather, rest other volumes of a distinctly strange and grisly sort: those bound in human skin. Would you know one if you held it in your hand? 
    
  In Dark Archives, Megan Rosenbloom seeks out the historic and scientific truths behind anthropodermic bibliopegy—the practice of binding books in this most intimate covering. Dozens of such books live on in the world’s most famous libraries and museums. Dark Archives exhumes their origins and brings to life the doctors, murderers, and indigents whose lives are sewn together in this disquieting collection. Along the way, Rosenbloom tells the story of how her team of scientists, curators, and librarians test rumored anthropodermic books, untangling the myths around their creation and reckoning with the ethics of their custodianship.  
    
  A librarian and journalist, Rosenbloom is a member of The Order of the Good Death and a cofounder of their Death Salon, a community that encourages conversations, scholarship, and art about mortality and mourning. In Dark Archives—captivating and macabre in all the right ways—she has crafted a narrative that is equal parts detective work, academic intrigue, history, and medical curiosity: a book as rare and thrilling as its subject. 
    
  Winner of the 2021 Best Monograph Award from LAMPHHS (Librarians, Archivists, & Museum Professionals in the History of the Health Sciences) 
    
  “Part scholar, part journalist, part wide-eyed death enthusiast, Rosenbloom takes readers on her own journey to understand how and why human-skin books came to be. … She includes no shortage of memorable scientific minutiae and clarifications of misunderstood history along the way.”—James Hamblin, The New York Times Book Review

  This is the story of Leah Day’s goddess quilts. 
  Leah’s creative journey began with the birth of her son and the conception of her first goddess quilt in 2007. While making that quilt, she found the vehicle for change and self-discovery she’d been searching for her whole life. 
  This is Leah’s story of transformation and how each goddess quilt in this series pushed her to become a better woman, wife, mother, and quilter. 
  This is not a book about any known goddesses from myth, legend, or religion. Leah’s goddess quilts are fantasy self-portraits that represent who she wished she could be and how she wanted to feel. 
  Exquisitely illustrated with dozens of detailed, full page photographs, quilters, artists, and anyone with an eye for bright color and gorgeous art quilts will find limitless inspiration inside this book. 
  By focusing on these powerful images through the many months, sometimes multiple years, it took to create each quilt, Leah found the wisdom and courage to change her life, her habits and even her thoughts. 
  Leah Day’s Goddess Quilts is an artist’s memoir that shows how you too can embrace courage and cultivate gratitude. Leah openly shares her personal struggles with self-criticism, the danger of dwelling on past pain, and how she overcame many obstacles blocking her path. 
  This is the story of a creative entrepreneur following a childhood dream. A story of success and failure and the struggle to remain humble in an egotistical social media fueled world. This is the story of a wife and mother embracing her creativity and releasing it to the world. 
  The goddess on the cover is called Release Your Light. 
  This is the light of your creativity. 
  It is not a spark or a flickering flame. 
  It’s an explosion of light more powerful than the sun. 
  Are you ready to release YOUR light?
