Book Description
"I compare this book to Mary McCarthy's The Group, and feel it has every chance to be a mini-series or as a big screen blockbuster. It's also perhaps the finest description of addiction and its effects on lovers, family, and friends in contemporary American fiction....use that quote in any manner you wish. - John Frederick, Documentary Producer, California This book is incredible. I read it twice! First, very fast. The second time I couldn't believe that you can be so uplifting - almost like Dr. Wayne Dyer - not only great with your quotes but your fiction is alive all the time. It reminded me of my own life story - my first marriage and surviving with two smart handsome boys in a tough city like New York. - Eva Pollack, Physical Therapist, New York I wanted to tell you that I read the first five chapters of your book and I couldn't stop reading though I am in the midst of moving. Though I spent many years in NYC City, it was at a later period. I am European. Yet, I loved the very human qualities of this dysfunctional family, the Brooklyn touches and certainly the Yiddish terms. I used to hear those from all my Jewish friends. It is all sooo New York. I'm looking forward to reading the rest! - Annouk Van de Voorde, Belgian writer who grew up in Africa and now lives in Arizona"

Why?
Author: Mandeep Khera
Publisher: AuthorHouse
ISBN: 1438911971
Category : Spiritual life
Languages : en
Pages : 150
Book Description
The human life is full of questions with a few answers. Is there a God? If there is a God, why does he kill innocent children? Why do some people survive against all odds while thousands others die? Why are there some people who are criminals and can kill without any compunction, while others are good human beings. What happens to us when we die? Is there a heaven or hell? What are ghosts? How do we deal with sad events? The book Why? addresses these and many other questions. The book takes perspectives from many religions and philosophers intertwined with the authors own views on the different topics. The book addresses various topics like the concepts of destiny and karma theory. It provides views of different religions like Christianity, Hinduism, Buddhism, Sikhism, and Judaism, explaining these concepts in detail which explains why some of the unexplained events take place. "When I first read the main concept of the book I was a little skeptical as to how someone could expect to answer such important questions, especially in a book as compact as one with only 140 pages. However, once I began reading the book, I really enjoyed the thought-provoking discussions of these issues as well as the act of looking at certain issues from different viewpoints other than my own. Khera makes many good points and has some very convincing arguments as to why he has come up with the answers that he has." - Kam Aures, RebeccaReads

Honk If You Hate Me

Category : Young Adult Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 258
Book Description
Everyone in Muessa Junction hates Monalisa Kent. After all, she was the thickwit who blowtorched the futon factory—the town's heart, soul, and bread and butter. So what if she was just six at the time? Junctioners don't forgive and forget. And now it's the 10th anniversary of the blaze that fried Mona's supposed life. In the past 10 years, her bitter town resurrected itself through the divine intervention of the fast food industry. But there is no absolution for Mona—they still hate the sorry sight of her. And Mona doesn't like them either. At 16 she's dyed her hair blue, found her place at the local tattoo parlor, and taken to memorizing bumper sticker sayings instead of dealing with people. But disappearing is never that easy, especially with blue hair. And in her efforts to retreat, Mona has forgotten the oldest bumper sticker in the book: "No matter how deep you bury the past, it always climbs out to bite you in the butt."
