Stickers + Magnets for Mother's Day!

(or whomever else you buy a book for in April/May)

As promised, I’m running a little promotion if you’re buying a copy of The Dignity of Dependence for your mom (or anyone else) as Mother’s Day approaches.

I’ve printed stickers and magnets (as below) for you to give alongside the book (or keep as a bonus for yourself).

You can claim a sticker or magnet if you buy The Dignity of Dependence or any of my previous books. Both are about two inches square. Magnets are first come, first serve, because I have fewer of them.

You can sign right up here to send me your receipt and your address.

A quick reminder of what’s on offer below:

The Dignity of Dependence: A Feminist Manifesto

The book that grew out of this substack! My book lies at the intersection of these two claims:

• Women’s equality with men is not premised on our interchangeability with men.

• Dependence on others is not a temporary embarrassment at the beginning (and end) (and much of the middle) of our lives but the pattern for how we live together.

Building the Benedict Option: A Guide to Gathering Two or Three Together in His Name

A practical guide to creating thicker Christian community where you are now, over the next two weeks to two months. I’ve loved hearing from readers about what they tried out. One reviewer: “I particularly enjoyed Libresco's suggestion to take things you would typically do alone, and do them as a group. It inspired me to send a text out to my son's class' mom group and plans for acts of mercy are in the works for next week.”

Arriving at Amen: Seven Catholic Prayers Even I Can Offer

This was my first book, and it tells the story of my conversion from atheist to Catholic, and how I learned to pray. As one reviewer wrote: “This book is really a practice manual, a helpful guide to expanding and growing that most important but most difficult of modern disciplines : a regular and disciplined prayer life.”

And, as a special bonus…

Back Again from the Broken Land

This is a tabletop RPG I wrote together with my husband. It’s inspired by “The Scouring of the Shire” at the end of The Lord of the Rings. You play small people who played a pivotal role in the defeat of the Doomslord, who now need to make the long walk home.

You can get the pdf at this link, and you can get a black and white print edition directly from me for $25 (including shipping).
