Book Description
In 2015, a race of alien Others conquered Earth. They enslaved humanity not by force, but through an aggressive mind control that turned people into contented, unquestioning robots. Except sixteen-year-old Althea isn’t content at all, and she doesn’t need the mysterious note inside her locket to tell her she’s Something Else. It also warns her to trust no one, so she hides the pieces that make her different, even though it means being alone. The autumn she meets Lucas, everything changes. Althea and Lucas are immune to the alien mind control, and together they search for the reason why. What they uncover is a stunning truth the Others never anticipated, one with the potential to free the brainwashed human race. It’s not who they are that makes them special, but what. And what they are is a threat. One the Others are determined to eliminate for good.

Book Description
A harrowing account of the Armenian Genocide documented through the stories of those who managed to survive and descendants who refuse to forget The grandchild of Armenians who escaped widespread massacres during the Ottoman Empire a century ago, Varujan Vosganian grew up in Romania hearing firsthand accounts of those who had witnessed horrific killings, burned villages, and massive deportations. In this moving chronicle of the Armenian people's almost unimaginable tragedy, the author transforms true events into a work of fiction firmly grounded in survivor testimonies and historical documentation. Across Syrian desert refugee camps, Russian tundra, and Romanian villages, the book chronicles individual lives destroyed by ideological and authoritarian oppression. But this novel tells an even wider human story. Evocative of all the great sufferings that afflicted the twentieth century--world wars, concentration camps, common graves, statelessness, and others--this book belongs to all peoples whose voices have been lost. Hailed for its documentary value and sensitive authenticity, Vosganian's work has become an international phenomenon.

Brilliant and full of pain. She understood my darkness and fueled the fire. When she left, I waited patiently to find her, and in her honor, I killed men who took away from innocents. Then I found her... She's deadly now, a killer too, and perfectly mine. It was beautiful to behold, but she belongs in a cage. My cage.

Book Description
There exists a voice within each of us, a quiet whisper amidst the clamor of the world. It speaks not in words, but in feelings, intuitions, and deep knowing. This voice is our inner guide, our compass, always pointing us towards our truth. I recall a time when this inner voice was particularly strong. I was at a crossroads in my life, facing a decision that would have a profound impact on my future. Fear and uncertainty clouded my mind, each path seeming fraught with risk and the potential for regret. Yet, amidst this turmoil, a gentle voice emerged, urging me towards a path I had not considered. It was not a voice of logic or reason, but one of deep inner knowing. It felt like a pull towards a destiny that was meant for me, a path aligned with my true self. We are constantly bombarded with external noise, the opinions of others, societal expectations, and the relentless chatter of our own minds. This noise can easily drown out the subtle whisper of our inner voice, making it difficult to discern our own truth. At the crossroads of choice, this inner voice becomes paramount. It cuts through the confusion, providing clarity and direction. It speaks to our deepest desires, our values, and our innate wisdom. It guides us towards choices that are in alignment with our authentic selves. The inner voice is not always easy to hear. It requires stillness, presence, and a willingness to listen. It may come as a gentle nudge, a sudden insight, or a deep sense of knowing. The more we cultivate our ability to listen, the clearer and stronger this voice becomes. The inner voice is our compass, guiding us through the twists and turns of life. It is not infallible, but it always points us in the direction of our highest good. It may lead us down unexpected paths, challenge our preconceived notions, and push us beyond our comfort zones. This voice is not about seeking comfort or ease. It is about aligning with our truth, even when it is uncomfortable or challenging. It is about embracing growth, expansion, and the unfolding of our highest potential. Trusting this inner voice requires courage. It means letting go of the need for certainty and embracing the unknown. It means having faith in ourselves and the wisdom that resides within.
