Book Description
What happens when a single moment changes everything? For seventeen-year-old Cheney, life on earth exists only in history books. He and more than one thousand other people have known life only aboard the Plexus spacecraft: self-contained, systematic, and serene. But that was before the radiation wave. Now Plexus has suddenly turned on them, becoming a terrifying and unrecognizable force. As the crew dwindles under attack, Cheney and his friends need to fight back before the ship that’s nurtured them for so long becomes responsible for their destruction.

Book Description
In the middle of the journey of our life Dante finds himself lost in a dark wood but then he founds a whole lot of literary movements and arguably modernity itself with his Divine Comedy that, nonetheless, inexplicably, didn't make God laugh. This serious absence caused God's non-divine counterparts, humans, to wonder: "Why are we in hell?" "Why is it so funny?" "And why can't I laugh?"

Book Description
Sam Hill always saw the world through different eyes. Born with red pupils, he was called "Devil Boy" or Sam "Hell" by his classmates; "God's will" is what his mother called his ocular albinism. Her words were of little comfort, but Sam persevered, buoyed by his mother's devout faith, his father's practical wisdom, and his two other misfit friends.

Book Description
What to Expect When You’re Not Expected to Expect Anything Anymore Did you see the title and flame-filled cover of this book, and did your weary, sweaty, confused, and exasperated soul scream, That one! That is the book for me!!? If so, I’d first like to extend my deepest sympathies, an ice pack, and some of these very helpful edibles. If it’s three in the morning as you’re reading this, as it may well be, you likely want those more than a book. But since I can’t really give you the other stuff, I can at least offer you this book. . . . Perimenopause and menopause experiences are as unique as all of us who move through them. While there’s no one-size-fits-all, Heather Corinna tells you what can happen and what you can do to take care of yourself, all the while busting pernicious myths, offering real self-care tips—the kind that won’t break the bank or your soul—and running the gamut from hot flashes to hormone therapy. With big-tent, practical, clear information and support, and inclusive of so many who have long been left out of the discussion—people with disabilities; queer, transgender, nonbinary, and other gender-diverse people; BIPOC; working class and other folks—What Fresh Hell Is This? is the cooling pillow and empathetic best friend to help you through the fire.

LIVING HELL IS WRITTEN FOR A MATURE AUDIENCE. IT INVOLVES SEVERAL FAMILIES WHO ARE TORN APART BY CHILD MOLESTATION. THE STORIES OF THE VICTIMS ARE CLEVERLY INTERTWINED. IT CAN BE SAID THAT ALL FAMILIES ARE DYSFUNCTIONAL TO SOME DEGREE, BUT COMBINING CHILD MOLESTATION TO THE ABNORMALITY ONLY PROMOTES DEVASTATION. MY BOOK WILL SHOW THE FAMILIES SUBSISTED WITH FEELINGS OF INSECURITY, DEVIANCE, MENTAL ANGUISH AND IGNOMINY AS A WAY OF LIFE, BECAUSE OF THE COMPLACENT ATTITUDE OF THE PERPETRATOR PERMEATING THE FAMILY. MY NOVEL WILL SHOW THAT DESPITE THE PERIOD OF UPHEAVAL AND FRUSTRATION, MANY RECOVER. IF YOU SEE YOURSELF ON THESE PAGES, KNOW YOU ARE NOT ALONE. YOU CAN SURVIVE. THE KEY IS ACCEPTANCE AND ASSISTANCE. ACCEPTING YOU ARE A VICTIM THROUGH NO FAULT OF YOUR OWN; AND SEEKING ASSISTANCE.
