Summer Fun
Author: Jeanne Thornton
Publisher: Soho Press
ISBN: 1641292393
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 433
Book Description
Winner of the 2022 Lammy Award for Transgender Fiction From acclaimed author Jeanne Thornton, an epic, singular look at fandom, creativity, longing, and trans identity. Gala, a young trans woman, works at a hostel in Truth or Consequences, New Mexico. She is obsessed with the Get Happies, the quintessential 1960s Californian band, helmed by its resident genius, B----. Gala needs to know: Why did the band stop making music? Why did they never release their rumored album, Summer Fun? And so she writes letters to B---- that shed light not only on the Get Happies, but paint an extraordinary portrait of Gala. The parallel narratives of B---- and Gala form a dialogue about creation—of music, identity, self, culture, and counterculture. Summer Fun is a brilliant and magical work of trans literature that marks Thornton as one of our most exciting and original novelists.

Book Description
*A Kirkus Reviews Best Book of 2018!* All Summer Long, a coming-of-age middle-grade graphic novel about summer and friendships, written and illustrated by the Eisner Award–winning and New York Times–bestselling Hope Larson. Thirteen-year-old Bina has a long summer ahead of her. She and her best friend, Austin, usually do everything together, but he's off to soccer camp for a month, and he's been acting kind of weird lately anyway. So it's up to Bina to see how much fun she can have on her own. At first it's a lot of guitar playing, boredom, and bad TV, but things look up when she finds an unlikely companion in Austin's older sister, who enjoys music just as much as Bina. But then Austin comes home from camp, and he's acting even weirder than when he left. How Bina and Austin rise above their growing pains and reestablish their friendship and respect for their differences makes for a touching and funny coming-of-age story.

Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 156
Book Description
“This is Not My Story” is a thoughtful look at sexual abuse through the eyes of a survivor and insights into the way God intervenes and blesses during the journey of healing from abuse. You will read specific scriptures and how they came to life during her own healing from incest and abuse. This book is intended to show God’s glory in the midst of darkness. It’s a rare and most honoring moment when you are invited into someone’s healing journey. As a licensed mental health practitioner, it is one that I don’t take lightly. It is in these moments when you’re able to discover something unique about your own trauma through another’s painstakingly painful years of agony and horror. It is in this place where doors and pathways are opened that shed light on what was once drowned in darkness. A light comes on and a discovery of hope and healing lies in your grasp, for maybe the first time ever. And you are finally able to say, “maybe their journey of healing could be mine also”. “This is Not My Life; - God’s Providence through my story of Abuse and Recovery.” does just that, as my dear friend and former colleague, Jodeen Bradfield discloses the deepest of pain and suffering that comes from being on the wrong side of abuse. This book is a game changer for those looking for hope, when everything tells you that there is none. Be prepared to be rocked to your core as you navigate your own healing journey while walking alongside Jodeen in hers. Our greatest victories are often granted at the sacrifice of others. At the core, this is what Jodeen has birthed, as she has dedicated her life to bringing hope and healing to those suffering from the effects of trauma and abuse. You will walk away forever changed.” Chelsey Burr, MS, LMHP, LPC
