Only one catch: He doesn’t want his family to know about his stalker. When Jack’s mom gets sick, he comes home to the family’s Texas ranch to help out. But a few years back, in the wake of a family tragedy, he dropped from the public eye and went off the grid. Jack Stapleton’s a household name-captured by paparazzi on beaches the world over, famous for, among other things, rising out of the waves in all manner of clingy board shorts and glistening like a Roman deity. But the truth is, she’s an Executive Protection Agent (aka "bodyguard"), and she just got hired to protect superstar actor Jack Stapleton from his middle-aged, corgi-breeding stalker. Hannah Brooks looks more like a kindergarten teacher than somebody who could kill you with a wine bottle opener. "With speedy pacing and sexual tension for miles, this tale packs a punch." -People "My perfect ten of a book!" - Emily Henry, New York Times bestselling author of BEACH READ and BOOK LOVERS GE made profits selling ultrasound machines to China and India so that baby girls could be aborted in favor of boys. We've conducted horribly unethical experiments on people. Our nuclear testing program was horrific to our own military and especially to the innocent residents of small island chains in the Pacific. Have we done horrible things since WWII? Sure. West Berlin fared way better than East Berlin and there were people risking their lives to escape the East, not so much the other way around alllie. Cuba lagged behind in many ways because of its cult of personality and alliance with the Soviets. In Vietnam we ultimately didn't honor our commitments to the people resisting communism, but resisting communism was still the right choice. The South Koreans were overjoyed to receive our help and when you look at how the people on that peninsula fared after the war it's clear that the communists were a horrific choice for the North Korean people (not just economic development, but basic human rights and access to nutrition etc.). We haven't conquered or occupied many places. I shall probably continue to check it out of the library periodically until I eventually cave and buy it so I won’t have to keep getting it at the library every few years. Even though I’m sure they asked permission about everything they wrote. Plus memoirs make me a little anxious – which is funny considering how many memoirs I read – but it’s just that people write these books that tell dreadful stories about them and their family members, and it makes me anxious for their family. I mean not depressing, but just very sad. Written by people who wish to remain anonymous God and religion Through motif, this memoir reflects on a childs opinion of God. We are thankful for their contributions and encourage you to make your own. I suppose the reason I haven’t bought this even though it’s excellent is that it’s also awfully sad. by Craig Thompson Blankets Symbols, Allegory and Motifs These notes were contributed by members of the GradeSaver community. For someone who loves words as much as I do, I am incredibly pleased when an author can make something go without saying. Thompson makes excellent use of the whole graphic novel form to do things with implication and without words, which is something I so adore about graphic novels. The drawings are black and white, line drawings, and Mr. I don’t have anything bad to say about it, actually. It’s very good – a graphic novel memoir about first love and losing faith – and I enjoyed it both times I read it, and I am looking forward to Craig Thompson’s next, whenever that may be. On reflection, I believe I am glad I didn’t buy this in my recent spate of bookbuying, because I have still not decided whether I want to own it forever. In one art installation, Kia made a bed out of Pokémon cards- the concept being that when she slept a new world would come to life and it was the only one she saw and constantly lived in. In ‘Senior Art’ Kia focused on feminism and female empowerment exposing through her work issues and concerns that many people would rather just “sweep under the rug”. All these mediums help Kia express the different world that she is so fond of. Kia found herself enjoying and expressing herself through poetry, short stories and writing, photography, painting and drawing. Kia Carrington-Russell Kia was born in a small town in Australia, moving around a lot at a young age until finding a stable town where she finished her schooling. Kia began writing at the age of fifteen in high school- finding that all her warped and strange dreams were giving her a fantastic new world- and since then she has never looked back. About author: Kia Carrington-Russell is a young author working on her first series: “The Three Immortal Blades”. This is partially due to how Morton develops Silas and Oz as characters, but it was a refreshing change from so much fiction where no one can have a direct conversation to save their lives.Īnd that dilemma isn’t even the dark moment! For all that Morton’s romantic comedies make me laugh, they frequently also make me cry. I appreciate that while both men have been burned by pursuing relationships with employees/employers before, here it is less an issue of angst and more a source of honest communication. Perhaps because he intentionally bombs the interview, he gets the job, which puts him face to face with the man of his dreams (even if everyone except Oz and Silas is aware of their potential). His best friend finds him the perfect opportunity, and Oz applies on a lark. Henry and Ivo make excellent appearances, and it’s always fun to check in with beloved characters further along in their own story.īut this story is mostly about Oz, who has terrible luck (taste) in relationships that result in him once again being out of a job and home. Though it can stand alone as a book, I’m pleased that I had additional background regarding Silas’ family and family history when going into this book. In the backwaters of Illinois, Douglas Spaulding's grandfather makes an intoxicating brew from harvested dandelions. A sprinkle of windows came suddenly alight miles off in dawn country. Yellow squares were cut in the dim morning earth as house lights winked slowly on. An endearing classic of childhood memories of an idyllic midwestern summer from the celebrated author of 'Farenheit 451'. Yellow squares were cut in the dim morning earth as house lights winked slowly. He exhaled again and again and the stars began to vanish. The street lights, like candles on a black cake, went out. "He stood at the open window in the dark, took a deep breath and exhaled. In this, Europeans should learn from Americans, who still have sufficient self-esteem to act decisively in a world of chaos and violence. The West should be proud - and ready to defend itself and its values. The West has no monopoly on evil, and has destroyed monsters as well as created them - leading in the abolition of slavery, renouncing colonialism, building peaceful and prosperous communities, and establishing rules and institutions that are models for the world. Bruckner, one of France's leading writers and public intellectuals, argues that obsessive guilt has obscured important realities. It has become a pathology, and even an obstacle to fighting today's atrocities. But Pascal Bruckner argues that guilt has now gone too far. And, indeed, since the Holocaust and the end of World War II, Europeans in particular have been consumed by remorse. Fascism, communism, genocide, slavery, racism, and imperialism - the West has no shortage of reasons for guilt.

The Princess and Curdie is a bit more grown up as it takes place two years after the first story. A truly remarkable story of bravery and honor. He is able to foil the plot of the goblins and as his reward he merely asks for a new coat for his mother (not riches or power) for that is the reason he was working so hard in the mines in the first place. Curdie is ultimately captured, but he ends up being saved by Irene's great-great grandmother. One day while staying late to earn more money, Curdie discovers another way to harm goblins and also discovers the goblins' plan to get even with the humans who chased them underground. He refuses a kiss from Irene, but plans to claim one later. Curdie is a very honorable and noble hero. Curdie manages to save the two from the goblins and tells them that goblins hate music, so he sings to keep them at bay. The following day, Irene and her nursemaid are out for a walk, but stay out til dark when goblins come out. One day while Irene is bored and exploring the castle, she finds her great-great grandmother, but nobody believes her when she tells them that she found her. The Princess and the Goblin involves three main characters, Princess Irene, her great-great grandmother, and a young boy named Curdie. |
