The Man Who Invented Writing by Baker Lawley
Genre(s): Literature & Fiction, Genre Fiction, Historical, Historical Fiction, World Literature, Mythology
I n ancient China, a man is sent on a quest that makes him into a legend.
His task is so great, it has never been done before. He must find a way to capture words. Forever.
Follow our hero Cangjie on this mythic adventure into the history of writing.
About the book:
Across generations of ancient China’s history, tribes of nomads have been at war. But no longer.
The Yellow Emperor and his powerful army have won decisive victories and united the tribes. For the first time in anyone’s memory, the land is at peace. It is the beginning of the great Chinese culture.
Cangjie, the Master of Communications for the Yellow Emperor, has returned to his village as a war hero, to lead a quiet and still life with his wife and son. Cangjie is happier than he has ever been.
Yet the Yellow Emperor believes that a time of peace is not a time for standing still. It is a time for invention and innovation, a time to bring greatness to this war-torn land.
It is time to find a way to capture the greatness in more than pictures or the memories of storytellers.
One morning, as the light breaks the horizon and the messenger’s most dangerous time arrives, Cangjie sees movement on the edge of the forest. It is a messenger sent from the Yellow Emperor.
As Shen the messenger tells him, “The Emperor summons you to…to… Oh, Master Cangjie, the Emperor desires for you to take these words that we speak and, I do not understand, but…capture them.”
So begins the quest of Cangjie, the man who invented writing.
So begins the hero’s voyage across a vast and changing land, and the adventure behind the history of writing.
As Cangjie seeks a way to do something that has never been done before, he travels the land and witnesses a world growing so fast that his task feels more and more impossible, and the quiet life with his family feels lost forever.
In this retelling of a legend from a time before writing, in the renaissance that gave rise to modern Chinese culture, award-winning author Baker Lawley spins a tale about the origin of the written word, and the burden and magic and miracle of the act of writing.
A Note from the Author:
As a writer and a professor of creative writing, I’ve always been fascinated by the magic of the written word and the origins behind it.
Years ago, I heard an ancient tale about a man in China who saw bird footprints in mud, and got the idea for written characters from the impressions they made. I loved this anecdote. But when I began researching it for this book, I discovered there was much more to the story.
The history of writing is full of adventure and war, danger and luck. Like any story that changes the world, it’s a fantastic mythology and legend.
And at its heart is a great and legendary character, Cangjie, the namesake for kanji characters, and a figure so important in the history of writing that his image is carved into the wall of the United States Library of Congress.

Honolulu by Alan Brennert
Genre(s): Literature & Fiction, Genre Fiction, Family Saga, Historical, Literary, United States, Asian American, Chick-Lit, Domestic Life, Historical Fiction, Literary Fiction
F rom the bestselling author of the “dazzling historical saga” (The Washington Post), Moloka’i, comes the irresistible story of a young immigrant bride in a ramshackle town that becomes a great modern city “In Korea in those days, newborn girls were not deemed important enough to be graced with formal names, but were instead given nicknames, which often reflected the parents’ feelings on the birth of a daughter: I knew a girl named Anger, and another called Pity. As for me, my parents named me Regret.”Honolulu is the rich, unforgettable story of a young “picture bride” who journeys to Hawai’i in 1914 in search of a better life.Instead of the affluent young husband and chance at an education that she has been promised, she is quickly married off to a poor, embittered laborer who takes his frustrations out on his new wife. Renaming herself Jin, she makes her own way in this strange land, finding both opportunity and prejudice. With the help of three of her fellow picture brides, Jin prospers along with her adopted city, now growing from a small territorial capital into the great multicultural city it is today. But paradise has its dark side, whether it’s the daily struggle for survival in Honolulu’s tenements, or a crime that will become the most infamous in the islands’ history…With its passionate knowledge of people and places in Hawai’i far off the tourist track, Honolulu is most of all the spellbinding tale of four women in a new world, united by dreams, disappointment, sacrifices, and friendship.
Another Second Chance by Troy Lewis

I magine in your darkest moment, as you lay on deaths door step; The God of the universe reaches down (in the most amazing, miraculous way) and hands you the ultimate second chance. Then does the same thing for your brother the very next day!! ALL because a stranger from a 1,000 miles away, was convicted by God to give his kidney away….
This is a very powerful book about the author’s experience in facing the ups and downs of kidney disease–After playing Jesus Christ in a local passion drama for 9 years, his world is turned upside down; As he states in the first chapter, “this would cause me to question who I was, all that I had believed, and God himself.” We live through Troy’s journey and the emotional and spiritual roller coaster with him, but always we sense God in control of the situation-even when all seems hopeless.
You will find yourself eagerly reading, in suspense, wanting to find out what happens next and how God will work. The author merely talks to us as if to friends, sharing something wonderful and awesome that happened to him; How at death’s door step, he found God’s Hope, Peace, and the reason for it all.
“I knew all of these things happened for a reason! God revealed afterwards, the reason for the pain, was to bring Hope, the reason for the Hope was to bring the miracle, and the reason for the miracle was to write this book to share the Hope with you!!” – Troy Lewis
This book really isn’t just one persons story of trial – its every ones story, because it’s God’s story. Through it you will learn to persevere, that what may seem like a closed door is really just a redirection to something even better. This is a beautiful inspirational book of love, struggles, Faith, and Hope. When a person is feeling down or lost in their own troubles, it will be an excellent resource to read over and over again. It’ll make you laugh, cry, hope, reflect, and by the end.. Praise in victory!

Genre(s): Health Fitness & Dieting, Relationships, Love & Romance, Self-Help, Happiness, Advice & How-to, Health Mind & Body
T he Average Joe Doesn’t Know a Thing About Romance
Romance is as important to a woman as sex is to the average Joe. Does that help you get the big picture?
Love and romance are at the top of the list of key ingredients for happiness in a woman’s life.
But, the average Joe is clueless about what a woman thinks is romantic, not because we’re dumb or idiots. It’s because we weren’t taught about it.
To a woman a romantic gesture is the expression of your love for her and confirmation that she is loved.
That’s why romance is a very big deal to women.
This book will help you learn what a woman thinks is romantic (and sorry, it has nothing to do with getting more sex, although, when your woman knows you love her and you show her you love her, she’ll feel a deeper relationship with you which may lead to more sex).
CAUTION! USE SPARINGLY!
The ideas and suggestions in this book are like water for a flower. Needed, but don’t over water or these ideas will lose their power.
PS: This book is for the average Joe only. Ladies, you can get one for your average Joe, but NO PEEKING!
Home Remedies from Weeds and Wild Flowers (Herbal Medicine from Your Garden or Windowsill) by Frann Leach
Genre(s): Health Fitness & Dieting, Alternative Medicine, Advice & How-to, Health Mind & Body, Herbal Remedies
N ot all of us are into formal gardening. A good solution is to make a wildlife garden, with a wild flower meadow and patches of important food plants for wildlife. So you end up with a garden full of weeds and other wild plants. Can you make home remedies from such unpromising material? Yes, you can.
Natural remedies go back into antiquity, and if you think about it, there wasn’t the range of plants available which we now expect to find. None of the culinary herbs we all know and love – most of them were taken to the UK by the Romans some 2000 years ago, brought to the New World with the Pilgrim Fathers in the 1600s.
It’s believed that even many common weeds originated with the Roman Empire, so now you know who to blame! But they didn’t carry these plants with them for no reason. They had a purpose – and that purpose was for use as natural cures for common ailments, most of which we still suffer from today.

Dr. Dolittle meets Northern Exposure….
Gordon closed the door behind her and walked woodenly to the bed.
He wanted to forgive Taylor. Desperately. But he couldn’t trust
her. If he allowed himself to trust her, she’d have the power to
hurt him. No matter what, he couldn’t give her that power ever
again.
The floor creaked just beyond Gordon’s door, and he held his
breath as the doorknob turned. His heart thundered and he wanted
desperately to call out to her.
Slowly, the door opened, and Taylor stood framed by firelight.
“Dear God.” His gaze drifted down the length of her, savoring
every inch of bare leg. His body sprang to life even as his mouth
formed the words, “Taylor, don’t…”
“I’ve been lying awake, and I can’t stop remembering.” She padded
barefoot to his bed. “Look at me, Gordon.”
He raised his lashes and met her gaze. Something bright and hot
and dangerous burned in her eyes. “Do you know…”
She put her knee on his bed and cupped his cheek with one hand,
then brought her other knee onto his bed and framed his face with
both hands. “I only know this,” she whispered, leaning closer to
cover his mouth with hers.
Gordon held his breath as she pulled him closer, stroking his
lips with her tongue until he growled and wrapped his arms around
her to tug her down on top of him.
He should hate her. He should fight this.
He couldn’t.
An Idiot in Love (a laugh out loud comedy) by David Jester
Genre(s): Humor & Entertainment, Humor, Parodies, Literature & Fiction, Genre Fiction, Biographical
K ieran McCall has never been lucky in love. This socially awkward, intellectually impaired Romeo has had his fair share of relationships, but none of them have ended well.
There was the time behind the bike-sheds, his first time, when he kissed little Kerry Newsome, promptly vomited on her and then received an arse-kicking in the cloakroom. The time he found himself embroiled in an animal murdering plot after trying to acquire his first girlfriend. The ‘bulge’ incident in front of a naked class of showering classmates, and then there was the time he lost his virginity to an unenthusiastic sociopath in the supermarket stockroom; but these things were merely incidental in comparison to the others, because as bad as growing up was for this persistently unlucky idiot, adulthood was worse.
An Idiot in Love is a laugh-out-loud comedy written in an autobiographical style; a devilish rom-com with a myriad of twists and turns.

On The Gathering Storm by Jason McIntyre
J ason McIntyre
VOTED a TOP DEBUT AUTHOR –Goodreads Choice Awards
At 29, Hannah Garretty is pursuing her lifelong dream of being a paid photographer. But in a curl of circumstance, she’s snatched from her bohemian life on the island and vanishes into a forest lair where unspeakable things have happened…and will continue to happen.
As Hannah grapples with her captivity and the knowledge bestowed to her by a special gift, we catch glimpse of her past life, before the abduction, through the lens of her childhood on the mainland and the last time she came face to face with her own mortality. The story is visceral and powerful, exploring the duality of our consuming lives versus our feeling lives, our purpose in being, and whether there is a scrap of light in anything as dark as Hannah’s ordeal.
“What [McIntyre] gives readers is a highly satisfying glimpse of a very real terror.” –Ryne Douglas Pearson, screenwriter of “Knowing”
“[McIntyre] writes some of the most beautiful sentences being published today.” –Vincent Zandri, author of “The Remains”
“Definitely felt like reading Neil Gaiman with occasional creepiness of Stephen King. Jason is my all-time favorite writer, his stories keep me up all night” –Evie Seo, Bookish Reviews
“This is a roller coaster ride: you’re in the hot sun, chugging to the top, anticipating the drop the whole way and then–boom–the drop comes and you’re gasping for air. The hot wind blasts you and your guts are in your throat. In the last half of the book, some scenes had me by the larynx. Highly recommended!” –Sony Reader Store
“A must read, but not for the faint of heart.” –EZread.com
