Pages : 429
Book Description
From the New York Times bestselling author The Four Winds, a moving, powerful novel about the fragile threads that bind together our lives and the astonishing potential of second chances “A tender, beautifully told story of emotional growth, forgiveness [and] the possibility of miracles.”—Publishers Weekly (starred review) Madelaine Hillyard is a world-famous heart surgeon at the top of her game. Her personal life is far less successful. A loving but overworked single mom, she is constantly at odds with her teenage daughter. At sixteen, Lina is confused, angry, and fast becoming a stranger to her mother—a rebel desperate to find the father who walked away before she was born. Complicating matters for Madelaine are the vastly different DeMarco brothers: While priest Francis DeMarco is always ready to lend a helping hand, his brother, Angel, long ago took on the role of bad boy. Years earlier Angel abandoned Madelaine—and fatherhood—to go in search of fame and fortune. His departure left Madelaine devastated, but now he reappears and seeks help from the very people he betrayed—as a patient in dire need.

Hey Mom
Author: Louie Anderson
Publisher: Atria Books
ISBN: 1501189182
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 288
Book Description
With wry wit and touching humor, Louie Anderson, New York Times bestselling author and Emmy Award–winning comedian currently starring in Zach Galifianakis’s Baskets, shares his journey of turning life’s challenges into joy, as well as plenty of wisdom he’s still discovering from his late mother. “I started out writing these letters to my mom, but a few friends said I should write a book. I said ‘okay’ because next to ‘we’ll see,’ ‘okay’ is as non-committal as you can get. But somehow, I stuck with it. I hope you like it. I hope that after you read it, you’ll write or call your own mom—and dad, sister, brother, cousin, nephew. Or have lunch with them. Or breakfast. It doesn’t have to be lunch. But do it now. Don’t wait like I did.” —Louie Louie Anderson has channeled his beloved mom, Ora Zella Anderson, in his stand-up routine for decades, but she died before seeing him reach his greatest heights, culminating in his breakout TV role as Christine Baskets, the mesmerizing character she inspired. Hey Mom is Louie’s way of catching her up on the triumphs, disappointments, and continuing challenges in life. Full of heartache, but also great hope, and of course—given Louie’s inimitable comedic voice—laugh-out-loud stories and his trademark observations on life’s many absurdities, Hey Mom shows a poignant side of Louie you may not know, and proves that he is one of the most nuanced and wide-ranging comics working today.

MOM
Author: Stephanie Houston
Publisher: Fulton Books, Inc.
ISBN: 1637101635
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 138
Book Description
This book is about my life story of my family growing up but also focuses on the guidance of an incredibly special person in my life growing up-my mom! I could not think of a better name for the book than just to be simple and call it for what it is, Mom. This book will tell the life of not only me and my mother but our family in general. You will get to meet each of us and many others as well. This book should give your insight about what it is like to live with someone that is so loving and kind to not only her children and family but also to everyone else around her and the community. I do not expect everyone that reads this book to see things in the same way I did. However, I want to shed a light that no matter what we do in life and how we do it, there are always choices. And making the right ones are not only difficult in real life, but we like to set an example like those before us. One thing that I hope everyone who reads this book takes away is that no matter how much you go through in life, good or bad, and how much you truly love someone, you realize that you didn't love them as much as you really could have until it is too late. With that said and in closing, do not wait! Buy the book to jump right in and experience so many real-life situations and stories and as many positive and a few negative emotions as possible, such as laughing, crying, reminiscing, and seeing the good in others. No matter how difficult things may get, there is always hope, and you can always find your happiness within. I want you to each enjoy this book as if you were right there in life with us as you may have experienced some of the trials and tribulations that we went through individually and as a family. And even though at times you feel like giving up on yourself or your dreams, do not! Dream your dream now! Only you can make it happen. Enjoy and God bless each one of you!
