Book Description
Hilarious, frightening, mysterious, adorable and utterly bleak, Chocolate Cheeks has arrived to disgust and delight comic-book readers of all ages. “Sweet” Chubby Cheeks and the Pullapart Boy (a twenty-first century Frankenstein’s monster for kids) are driving each other crazy. Forced together by their dating parents, these two bitter enemies have alienated―or otherwise disposed of―most of their social circle, leaving them with plenty of quality-time for each other. They go camping, start a business, form a band, join a team, try to make some new friends and engage in a "holy war." Things go from worse to worst, though, when the two boys find a cat―or is it a bird?―one hot, summer day.

What is more painful: life or death? For Mason Cornell, that choice is one he’d rather not make at six years of age. His priorities lie more with playing with his imaginary friends: a talking flower with razor sharp teeth, a tree filled with fire, and a glob of acidic magma. They know secrets that Mason can’t even begin to understand, including the truth behind his and his sister’s parents’ tragic death. Artemis Cornell, Mason and Beth’s uncle and guardian, is a man of reality and facts. He is thrown into raising these two unique children, while struggling with his own guilt and past. As well as trying to wrap his head around his nephew’s imaginary world. He finds that he can travel to this world, at the expense of his physical and mental health. When Mason’s mind takes a turn for the worse, the lives of the Cornell household hit a rocky road.. a road that leads them to an asylum?

Pages : 136
Book Description
The first novel from one of the most electrifying voices in contemporary crime fiction, Gabino Iglesias, follows Fernando, a drug dealer and enforcer living in Austin whose life takes a lethal turn when an unknown gang with seemingly supernatural abilities arrives on his turf. Enforcer and drug dealer Fernando has seen better days. On his way home from work, some heavily-tattooed gangsters throw him in the back of a car and take him to an abandoned house, where they saw off his friend's head and feed the kid's fingers to…something. Their message is clear: this is their territory, now. But Fernando isn't put down that easily. Using the assistance of a Santeria priestess, an insane Puerto Rican pop sensation, a very human dog, and a Russian hitman, he'll build the courage (and firepower) he'll need to fight a gangbanger who's a bit more than human.

I'm Grown
Author: LaFondra Willis-Dunn
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1796089834
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 80
Book Description
Growing up in one of the largest inner cities in the south, Ylonia leaned more to the times around her; more so, than the lessons, her parents would speak to her. I’m Grown is loosely based on real illustrations in the fictitious life of eight different characters: Ylonia, Denise, Tyraneishia, Tre’Quan, Junior, Cassie, Blake, and Shaneka. The main fictitious character, Ylonia, narrates the book and is in no means a real-life character or person. From manipulation by an impressionable male, Ylonia found herself expecting her first child and subject to statistical ridicule. Feeling her life was over and there was nothing that she could do to change her situation; she settled in the cultural norms of just surviving in the inner city. After many more disappointments and feelings of betrayal by her then-husband and so-called friends, Ylonia began to open up and seek counsel in the people she felt was in a position that she desired to be in one day. Armed with the knowledge of what it takes to get where she wanted to be in life, Ylonia started strategizing how she can apply their steps to her situation without ending up on the street in the process. I'm Grown is collated in three parts: loose illustrations from her past; the assessment and resolution to those seemingly unavoidable and constant roadblocks, as well as, a workbook to help the readers begin their journey to strategizing to a better way of succeeding in life.
