Book Description
Follow one man, walk through a life of sexual abduction and abuse, abandonment, trust, and betrayal, drug addiction, and alcoholism. Besides the salvation he cultivates by his relationship with God, Eli is also helped along the way by the love of a man named Ray who loved and helped him when he could neither love nor help himself. A woman he refers to as his angel sees the innate good within and signs on to be his life partner and the angel that God put in his life. This is Helen. Eli shares with his readers the darkness and demons he faced along his journey through life until he found God. At this stage, the Lord clearly revealed his knowledge and overwhelming love to this author. This taught Eli how to forgive himself, and by extension, his fellow humans. As he shares his message of love and hope, he does so with the earnest desire that his readers will find what he has found: the key to a happy existence by following the dictate of "Just do." This biography of one man's incredible life's journey is amazing... He was deeply flawed and out of control; full of bitterness and hatred. He has gone on to become a shining power of example for many others with whom he shares his experience, strength, and hope... Hugh M. You gave me hope! Recovering addict - Douglas M.

Book Description
A memoir about loving someone you cannot save Serala drank frat boys under the table. She wore saris and ate delicately from plates of curry at family events; elsewhere she wore a lip ring, designer shades, and a cowboy hat and ordered bloody steaks. She wrote volumes of poetry, made amateur films, singlehandedly ran a chapter of Food Not Bombs, and ended up as a fierce advertising agency executive. She often slept less than five hours per week and would, at the slightest excuse, drive from L.A. to New York in a cool 50 hours. In some moments of danger, she split the lips of menacing strangers. And she gave herself over to the casual knives and fists of others for nothing more than another bag of heroin that she had plenty of money for anyway. Clearly Now, the Rain traces the decade-long relationship of Eli Hastings and his friend Serala: from ill-advised quests for narcotics in Mexican border towns through summer road trips, from southern California to Tennessee and on to New York City and Seattle, from 1996 to the very last days of 2004, when Serala's journey concluded tragically at age 27.

Book Description
Joel Higgins has 901 unsent text messages saved on his phone. Ever since the thing that happened, there are certain people he hasn't been able to talk to in person. Sure, he shows up at school, does his mandatory volunteer hours at the soup kitchen, and spends pretty much every moment thinking about Eli, the most amazing girl in the world. But that doesn't mean he's keeping it together, or even that he has any friends. So instead of hanging out with people in real life, he drafts text messages. But he never presses send. As dismal as sophomore year was for Joel, he doesn't see how junior year will be any better. For starters, Eli doesn't know how he feels about her, his best friend Andy's gone, and he basically bombed the SATs. But as Joel spends more time at the soup kitchen with Eli and Benj, the new kid whose mouth seems to be unconnected to his brain, he forms bonds with the people they serve there-including a veteran they call Rooster-and begins to understand that the world is bigger than his own pain. In this dazzling, hilarious, and heartbreaking debut, Joel grapples with the aftermath of a tragic loss as he tries to make sense of the problems he's sees all around him with the help of banned books, Winnie-the-Pooh, a field of asparagus, and many pairs of socks.
