Book Description
Falling in love with my brother's best friend is absolutely not part of my plan... Everything in my life is just peachy.

The problem is, Archer and I had a one-night-stand last year and now he thinks we’re meant to be together. I, however, strongly disagree because not only is he Bates's BFF, but I’m also his agent, and I need him throwing balls, not wanting me to play with his. There is no way I’m going to jeopardize my career by breaking that cardinal rule again. Nope, not happening. Unfortunately, he’s as stubborn and determined as I am and what Archer wants, Archer gets. This time he’s not letting me go without a fight... *A lighthearted, steamy rom-com with all the heat that you'd expect to be feelin' in the midst of a baseball player's locker room. Be ready to laugh out loud with this roommates to lovers, romantic comedy. Note: There were no jockstraps harmed in the making of this book.

Autoethnography and the Other
Author: Tami Spry
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1134817134
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 222
Book Description
Challenging the critique of autoethnography as overly focused on the self, Tami Spry calls for a performative autoethnography that both unsettles the "I" and represents the Other with equal commitment. Expanding on her popular book Body, Paper, Stage, Spry uses a variety of examples, literary forms, and theoretical traditions to reframe this research method as transgressive, liberatory, and decolonizing for both self and Other. Her book draws on her own autoethnographic work with jazz musicians, shamans, and other groups; outlines a utopian performative methodology to spur hope and transformation; provides concrete guidance on how to implement this innovative methodological approach.

The Weight of Sand
Author: Edith Blais
Publisher: Greystone Books Ltd
ISBN: 1771649100
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 221
Book Description
A radiant, unforgettable memoir of one woman’s 450 days spent in captivity, and her defiant refusal to have her humanity stripped away. When Edith meets Luca in a small Northern town, the two connect instantly. Under the Northern Lights, they develop a deep friendship over their shared passions: travel, living off the land, a bohemian life. In search of wanderlust, they embark on an epic road trip from Italy to Togo, where they will join their friend’s sustainable farming project. Upon arriving on the African continent, they change their itinerary and drive through Africa’s Sahel region, a haven for militant groups, where they are surrounded and captured. Little was known about Edith’s and Luca’s fate until they reappeared in Mali more than one year later, having mysteriously escaped their captors. Now, Edith shares her harrowing story with the world for the first time—complete with the poems that became a lifeline for her in captivity, which she wrote in secret with a pen borrowed from another hostage. Against the stunning but cruel backdrop of the desert, Edith recounts her months as a hostage: the oppressive heat, violent sandstorms, constant relocations, hunger strikes, and her eventual heart-pounding escape. Separated from Luca early on, she finds solidarity and comfort with a group of other female hostages, who lend her a pen to write poetry, a creative outlet that helps save her life. Edith is steadfast in her will to remain sane: she reveals her dedication to her art, and her striking ability to unsettle her captors and identify their vulnerabilities. A compelling descent into a strange, brutal universe, The Weight of Sand is ultimately a life-affirming book and a poetic celebration of one woman’s resilience.
