You learn to ask yourself with every sentence and every phrase: Is this interesting? Is it fun or challenging or inventive? Am I giving the reader enough? Is she bored? Is she following where I want to lead her?

Book Description
NATIONAL BESTSELLER ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR: VOGUE • FORBES • BOOKPAGE • NEW YORK POST • WIRED “I have not been as profoundly moved by a book in years.” —Jodi Picoult Even after she left home for Hollywood, Emmy-nominated TV writer Bess Kalb saved every voicemail her grandmother Bobby Bell ever left her. Bobby was a force—irrepressible, glamorous, unapologetically opinionated. Bobby doted on Bess; Bess adored Bobby. Then, at ninety, Bobby died. But in this debut memoir, Bobby is speaking to Bess once more, in a voice as passionate as it ever was in life. Recounting both family lore and family secrets, Bobby brings us four generations of indomitable women and the men who loved them. There’s Bobby’s mother, who traveled solo from Belarus to America in the 1880s to escape the pogroms, and Bess’s mother, a 1970s rebel who always fought against convention. But it was Bobby and Bess who always had the most powerful bond: Bobby her granddaughter’s fiercest supporter, giving Bess unequivocal love, even if sometimes of the toughest kind. Nobody Will Tell You This But Me marks the creation of a totally new, virtuosic form of memoir: a reconstruction of a beloved grandmother’s words and wisdom to tell her family’s story with equal parts poignancy and hilarity.

Book Description
A Psychiatric Evaluation of Donald Trump Many people believe that Donald Trump has mental health issues. As evidence of his mental instability, in December 2016, an article in the Huffington Post featured a letter by three distinguished professors of psychiatry who claim that Donald Trump suffers from “grandiosity, impulsivity, hypersensitivity to slights or criticism, and an apparent inability to distinguish between fantasy and reality.” Other experts have said that he is suffering from malignant narcissism, which results in antisocial behavior, among other things. More evidence is provided in this work about a potentially unstable President.

Book Description
Author Jennifer Rothschild has a story for you. It's about an unlikely couple, an unusual courtship, a beautiful wedding, and an illicit affair. Despite this situation, the marriage did not fail. It flourished. Here is the story of Hosea's love for Gomer—a woman who might have disappeared into her transgressions if not for the love of her husband. It's a beautiful illustration of the story of God and Israel. Believe it or not, it's your story too. God chose you and loves you. If you wander off, He will find you. If you are afraid, He will reassure you. If you are broken, He will restore you. If you are ashamed, He will cover you. If you give up on Him, He will not give up on you. No matter where you are, God sees who you are and loves you faithfully. Through the story of Hosea and Gomer, God tenderly reaches out to you and whispers, "My daughter, my name and nature are love. My name makes you lovely. Because I am worthy, I make you worthy. I am here to remind you of who you are. You are never invisible to me."

Truthlies

ISBN: 1460251288
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 256
Book Description
Preface Every child over the age of three knows the difference between a truth and a lie, but that line becomes blurred as we grow older and gain more experience. Wading through the murky waters of adult life soon reveals an uncomfortable fact: one man's truth may be another man's lie. How are we as individuals meant to navigate this choppy sea of life without so much as a solid truth to steer by? The answer lies in this book, Truthlies: Life Lessons from the Person Who Knows You Best. No one knows you better than you know yourself, and Truthlies helps you organize the scattered bits of wisdom you have collected from the sages in your life into a clear-cut strategic mentor framework. Step by step, the Truthlies framework will lead you through the process of self-reflection and self-examination to uncover your truths and your lies, to simplify your life, and to find your way to your own Promised Land. Truthlies details my personal spiritual journey. This is the story of how I learned about life. This year marks the twenty-fifth anniversary of the passing of my first strategic mentor, my grandfather. He and the rest of the village of my extended family that raised me filled my waking moments with invaluable wisdom that I am driven to pass along to readers. Drawing upon these teachings and the knowledge I have gained as a college graduate with a background in economics, I weave together financial concepts such as cost-benefit analysis with faith-based teachings to lead readers on their journey to more fulfilling lives....

The Idea of the American University
Author: Bradley C.S. Watson
Publisher: Lexington Books
ISBN: 0739149172
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 176
Book Description
As John Henry Newman reflected on 'The Idea of a University' more than a century and a half ago, Bradley C. S. Watson brings together some of the nation's most eminent thinkers on higher education to reflect on the nature and purposes of the American university today. They detail the life and rather sad times of the American university, its relationship to democracy, and the place of the liberal arts within it. Their mordant reflections paint a picture of the American university in crisis. But they also point toward a renewal of the university by redirecting it toward those things that resist the passions of the moment, or the pull of mere utility. This book is essential reading for thoughtful citizens, scholars, and educational policymakers.
