Ahh, the joy of reading on my new Kindle, the latest paperwhite version that replaces my original Kindle Keyboard, which had been giving me problems for a year or so, constantly restarting on its own out of nowhere. (#readerproblems, amirite???) This new one is lovely, and the reading experience is divine. I feel like I will miss the buttons on the side in the winter; I loved how I could keep my hands under a blanket or in my sweatshirt sleeves and still turn pages, but at least I’ll still be able to only poke a single fingertip out and still read, right?

Anna LeBaron: How I escaped my father's murderous polygamous cult
She could not have escaped without the help of Lillian, who hid her away in a motel room until her mother had returned to Denver with Jordan.

After Dan Jordan was murdered in an apparent "blood atonement", Mark revealed that he and Jordan had been among a group of followers who had refused to carry out Ervil's orders to bust him out of prison "guns blazing" and so there was a good chance he would be targeted next.
The 38-year-old refused to go into hiding. He opted instead to turn his suburban home into a fortress, but it wasn't enough.
At 4pm on 27 June 1988, he was shot numerous times as he sat in his office chair at Reliance Appliances.
At almost exactly the same time, Mark's brother Duane, owner of another Houston repair shop, was shot dead,
