Book Description
What can you do if youve been traumatized? How can you get back to a normal life? How long before your pain goes away? Are you becoming addicted to the painkillers and medication that are being given to you as part of treatment? Are you a doctor or hoping to become one but never had a patient who had been in a bomb explosion or similar tragedies? If those are your questions, this book has all those answers, including lessons from the doctors. This memoir shares the story of one young womans shattered dreams when she was seriously injured in a car bombing in Ethiopia. When author Nimo Omar, also known Fathi, left Ethiopia in 2006, she was excited to forge a new life in the United States. Even though she talked to her father by phone, Omar missed him and planned a visit in 2013. Before she could greet her father in person, Omar was seriously injured. Her life was changed forever when a bomb placed under the truck she was riding in exploded. In Crushed Dreams, she tells her story. This is a story of perseverance, and Omar narrates her long journey to recovery. She shares how she dealt with the pain and trauma and how she underwent many surgeries as she was determined to walk again, return to school, and make a difference in the world with her education. Nimo Omar was born in the small village of Garloguba in Ethiopia. She moved to the United States in 2006. She graduated from high school in Nebraska and attended St. Paul College, in St. Paul, Minnesota, and graduated in 2017 in Metro-State University, where she continues to live.

Book Description
Using the Biblical story of Naomi, Dr. Larry Crabb shows you how to look through life's tragedies to see the lavish blessings God has for you in Shattered Dreams. “Shattered dreams,” writes Dr. Larry Crabb, “are never random. They are always a piece in a larger puzzle, a chapter in a larger story. The Holy Spirit uses the pain of shattered dreams to help us discover our desire for God, to help us begin dreaming the highest dream.” To help you understand this neglected truth in the deepest and most helpful way, author and counselor Larry Crabb has written a wise, hopeful, honest, and realistic examination of life’s difficulties and tragedies. He wraps these insights around the bold story of Naomi in the Bible’s book of Ruth. As Crabb retells and illuminates this sometimes disturbing and often profoundly touching story, we are shown how God stripped Naomi of happiness in order to prepare her for joy. And we gain an unforgettable picture of how God uses shattered dreams to release better dreams and a more fulfilling life for those He loves. Shattered dreams have the power to change our lives for good. Join Larry Crabb on a life-changing adventure to encounter God in the midst of life’s most difficult times, and learn to live beyond your Shattered Dreams.

Pages : 180
Book Description
Finally in English, Island of Shattered Dreams is the first ever novel by an indigenous Tahitian writer. In a lyrical and immensely moving style, this book combines a family saga and a doomed love story, set against the background of French Polynesia in the period leading up to the first nuclear tests. The text is highly critical of the French government, and as a result its publication in Tahiti was polarising.

Book Description
Some damages can't be seen... CHARLIE It wasn’t supposed to be like this. It was supposed to be one kiss, one simple kiss to test my conviction that I’m unable to feel desire after what those bastards did to me. Just a kiss, nothing more. And the only guy I trust enough to kiss without triggering a full-blown panic attack? Mark. It was just a test. It wasn’t supposed to be the hottest damn kiss of my entire life. Now I wish I’d never kissed him, because it’s destroyed our friendship. MARK Charlie was positive that past traumas had left her too broken to feel desire. She declared she was done with dating because it was pointless. But I could see what she couldn’t. All she needed was to just let herself feel with someone she trusts. She trusts me. Charlie knows I’d never take advantage of her. I suggested we kiss, just to test her theory, knowing her trust in me would allow her to relax and simply explore the moment. She startled me by accepting my offer. She stunned me with her passionate response. My own intense reaction rocked me to my core. Now I want the one thing I can never have: Charlie. In every way. NOTE: This is Book 2 in a three-book series. These books need to be read in order. Charlie and Mark’s journeys to self-acceptance will conclude in Book 3 of the SHATTERED series. NOTE: The series ends with a HEA, but the first and second novels do not. TRIGGER WARNING: This book contains subject matter which some readers may be sensitive to. Please read the note from the author to see if this book is a fit for you. Specific trigger warnings are located inside.

Pages : 319
Book Description
Each year, readers, writers, and critics alike look forward to Thomas Hauser’s newest collection of articles about the contemporary boxing scene. As Booklist has proclaimed, “Many journalists have written fine boxing pieces, but none has written as extensively or as memorably as Thomas Hauser. . . . Hauser remains the current champion of boxing. . . . Hauser is a treasure.” Broken Dreams meets this high standard with its coverage of 2020’s most important fighters and fights, outside-the-ring controversies, regulatory missteps, and other issues that defined the year’s boxing scene. Hauser explores the heavyweight trio of Tyson Fury, Anthony Joshua, and Deontay Wilder in depth, as well as Canelo Álvarez and historic greats like Jack Dempsey, Carlos Monzon, and Muhammad Ali. Hauser also tackles the larger social challenges that imposed themselves so assertively in 2020, including the coronavirus pandemic, the Black Lives Matter movement, runaway social media, the presidential election, and other forces that left a deep imprint on the sport and business of boxing.
