Book Description
Megan Fox, a diabolic indie rock band, toxic friendship, fluid sexuality, feminist reckoning, and a literal man-eater in the body of a high school cheerleader: Jennifer’s Body has it all Featuring an original interview with director Karyn Kusama What would be an easy sell in 2021 — women at the helm (screenwriter Diablo Cody, director Karyn Kusama), a bankable cast (Megan Fox, Amanda Seyfried), and a deceptively complex skewering of gender politics — was a box office flop in 2009. In Extra Salty, Frederick Blichert flips the script on how Jennifer’s Body was labeled a failure to celebrate all that is scrumptious (as Jennifer would say) about it: supernatural horror, dark comedy, queer love, and a nuanced handling of gendered violence. The movie could have been to the aughts what Heathers was to the eighties, and it’s finally getting its due — whether in the flood of tenth-anniversary praise, the parade of Jennifer Halloween costumes, or Halsey’s nod to it (“Killing Boys”) on her platinum-selling album. With insight into the genre’s cinematic tropes, our current cultural reckoning with misogyny, and an original interview with director Karyn Kusama, Extra Salty solidifies the status of Jennifer’s Body as a cult classic.

Book Description
Fox and Dulan expose the pattern of censorship, intimidation, and retaliation that the Orland Park Public Library used to cover up dangers to children and unreported crimes, silencing patrons who complained about sexual activity, a hostile work environment, and rampant spending waste. With help from the American Library Association, the Orland Park Police, and the Village of Orland Park, the Library became obsessed with eradicating the public's First Amendment right to address and correct dangers to children in the one place that everyone always assumed was safe for kids.

Category : Juvenile Nonfiction
Languages : en
Pages : 36
Book Description
Megan Fox is the poster child for empowered women: she’s part glamour girl and part action-adventure heroine. Outspoken and controversial, Fox has a disarming sense of humor about herself and is the first to admit she has yet to prove herself a serious actress. Despite her movie star looks, life wasn’t always easy for Fox. Born and raised in a very strict Tennessee family, Fox was bullied so badly in school she started eating her lunch while hiding in a bathroom stall. Being an outcast in school prompted her to put all her energies into performing. She appeared in her first movie at sixteen and never looked back. Within five years she was starring opposite Shia LaBeouf in Transformers, the movie that made her a star and one of the most photographed women in the world. This book recounts her journey from the hills of Tennessee to international fame and reveals the girl-next-door side of Fox rarely seen.

The Enchanted Hour
Author: Meghan Cox Gurdon
Publisher: HarperCollins
ISBN: 0062562835
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 322
Book Description
A Wall Street Journal writer’s conversation-changing look at how reading aloud makes adults and children smarter, happier, healthier, more successful and more closely attached, even as technology pulls in the other direction. A miraculous alchemy occurs when one person reads to another, transforming the simple stuff of a book, a voice, and a bit of time into complex and powerful fuel for the heart, brain, and imagination. Grounded in the latest neuroscience and behavioral research, and drawing widely from literature, The Enchanted Hour explains the dazzling cognitive and social-emotional benefits that await children, whatever their class, nationality or family background. But it’s not just about bedtime stories for little kids: Reading aloud consoles, uplifts and invigorates at every age, deepening the intellectual lives and emotional well-being of teenagers and adults, too. Meghan Cox Gurdon argues that this ancient practice is a fast-working antidote to the fractured attention spans, atomized families and unfulfilling ephemera of the tech era, helping to replenish what our devices are leaching away. For everyone, reading aloud engages the mind in complex narratives; for children, it’s an irreplaceable gift that builds vocabulary, fosters imagination, and kindles a lifelong appreciation of language, stories and pictures. Bringing together the latest scientific research, practical tips, and reading recommendations, The Enchanted Hour will both charm and galvanize, inspiring readers to share this invaluable, life-altering tradition with the people they love most.

Hi.... I am Aaric (@Ric), and I am in love with this girl, Diya (@Devadharshani). I know it sounds pretty usual, so here comes the part which makes it more exclusive and distinctive – I hear voices in my head, not just one, I hear two voices. They are inside me, they talk to me, and they know me very well. Sometimes, it’s fun to be with them – they guide me, they understand me – but mostly, they are just eating my head off, and it goes on and on. I am just getting used to them; wishing you good luck for the same.

Beautiful supermodel Miranda Newman is now four months pregnant and in Hawaii, celebrating a triple wedding along with her sister, Avery, and her brother, Nick. They have all exchanged their wedding vows in front of their family and friends. She prays, as she takes her vows with the man that she adores, that they live a long and happy life for many years to come. But she has been having very troubling dreams and isn't sure if they are going to come true. With her ESP, she pictures herself still pregnant and attending her husband's funeral, which scares her to death, making their precious time and the renewal of their wedding vows even more intensely emotional for her. Not knowing if her premonitions will come true, only knowing the shock of it may cause her to go into premature labor and lose her twins in her last trimester with a real chance of her being lost in a world of grief and misery too devastating to comprehend. In a place where no one can reach her, not even her six-year-old daughter, Julie, or the twins growing inside her. The loss of her husband, she knows, will tear apart the hearts of everyone who loves and admires him. They will all become helpless to reach her in her fragile state of mind due to the unbelievable shock and grief that will cause her to lose touch with reality. But she prays to God she is wrong.
