Rise of the Sonsby JD MITCHELL

Ali McMillian almost drowned. It wasn’t a run-of-the-mill accident either; a large horse jumped out of the lake and dragged her under. If it hadn’t been for high school hotshot Leigh Hart, it might have succeeded. She was content to chalk the incident up to a delusion, except creatures are stalking her from the shadows. Someone wants her dead, but why?

Thrust into a magical world, Ali learns mythology is more than old tales. A dangerous enemy has resurfaced, and she is a target.

The Squadby Eric S. Brown

A NEW WAY OF LIFEby Samy Barnat

This book is about protecting all of us from the big crises coming. COVID-19 will not be the last and showed us what happens when we are not prepared.

Let’s start with pandemics: globalization can kill you. Is that an exaggeration?! Not at all. COVID-19 was caused by globalization, because, with so much international travel, especially by planes, infectious diseases can spread fast and far. The next pandemic might be far worse than COVID-19. In the past, without planes, the Black Death killed up to 60% of the population of Europe! That’s hundreds of times more than COVID-19! Imagine what it would be like to have a new virus similar to the Black Death, but with planes and globalization… This means death for you and your family, have no doubt.

But this book explains how you can protect yourself and those you love, and not only from infectious diseases. If you act, YOU WILL PROUDLY BE THE SOLUTION TO THE MANY CRISES our deeply mad and unhealthy civilization is facing:

• You can be the solution to the cycle of economic crises where the rich get richer, the poor get poorer, banks steal from us, and inequality grows greater, while so many don’t even have decent food or healthcare…

• You can be the solution to the ecological crisis, including climate change! We pollute the food we eat, the water we drink, the air we breathe… Climate change has started to kill hundreds of thousands through heat, flooding, hurricanes, a lack of food and water, which can lead to wars… The worst-case scenario could lead to human extinction, as it did 250 million years ago when 96% of species died because of climate change from volcanoes’ CO2 emissions.

• You can be the solution to other crises: police violence, overpopulation…

• You can be the solution to political corruption. Politicians pretend to care about what you think to get elected, but then really only care about what the richest push them to do through lobbying. Also, they almost started a nuclear war without our authorization! We live in a dangerous, false democracy…

There is an alternative system in which you can really be the solution to all these crises: future pandemics like COVID-19, climate change, economic crises… Does it sound impossible? This book proves that it is possible based on referenced science and facts.

Protect Yourself and Those You Love. Be the Solution.

Looking Real Goodby C. Morgan

I’m the guy every woman wants to go home with at the end of the night.

One problem though. I don’t have time for romance.

Hell, I can barely squeeze in a one-night stand here and there.

As a self-made billionaire in the tech space, my work is my life.

Unfortunately, my reputation as a rich jerk precedes me and isn’t entirely off.

Thankfully, my sister is a successful public-relations consultant and has an idea, a way to soften my image a little.

Her best friend is the answer.

But the woman that shows up to help me with philanthropy looks nothing like the girl I remember.

She’s rocking her jeans and T-shirt in ways that leave me wanting far more than I should.

Pretty soon, the lines are blurred between me wanting to help my company and me wanting to help myself to another serving of her.

I’m all for looking like a good guy to help my profits soar, but I’ve got bad boy things on my mind.

This woman is stealing my attention. She’s looking real good.

God help us both.

Being Authentic: A Memoirby Morhaf Al Achkar

Our existence is fragile. I learned that in many intricate ways, so I do not take today for granted. I do not know what tomorrow will bring. I do not even know if tomorrow will come.

On the eve of Thanksgiving 2016, I received the diagnosis of stage 4 lung cancer. Next to dying, I fear the spread of cancer to my brain and losing my ability to think, speak, or write. This loss would be devastating to me.

The fragility of our life made me want to be authentic. Therefore, I am writing this memoir to be authentic–we become our true selves when we author who we are.

I am afraid of being forgotten. Death does frighten me. But more than dying, I am scared of having no one remember me or, even worse, of being recognized differently from who I was. At the same time, I have never thought that I was entitled to ask others not to forget me. But, not to be forgotten is precisely what I yearn for.

While I am writing for the other, I am simultaneously writing for myself. I am one of the readers and will test the subject as it gets written. My criteria are stricter. I want to say, “This is my narrative.”

I need to be able to say, “This is my narrative.”

Wheel Powerby Sigal Adler

♥ Wheel Power ♥

Little Wheely rolled round and round, 
all on his own he spun on the ground. 
Wheels had a purpose, except for him, 
which is why he felt sad and so grim. 

All his friends were wheels too, 
yet they all had something to do. 
He watched them roll all night and day, 
all very busy – rushing on their way.
