Book Description
It happened one night not long after that holiday. I think they had been out but I'm not sure. I remember I was sleeping in my bed when the noises of my mum and him getting home awoke me. Suddenly, my bedroom door opened but it wasn't my mum. I didn't know where she was. It was him. I pretended to be asleep. He came to the side of the bed and I didn't know what was happening but my mind told me to stay still. He pulled the covers back, I didn't move. I kept my eyes closed. My heart felt like it was jumping out of my chest. He lifted my legs apart and I let them move. He pulled up my nightdress and pulled my pants down. I didn't even try to open my eyes. Imagine being an innocent 7-year-old girl with a broke, single mum. Now imagine your mum meets a man that can give her a nice house and a better life in exchange for you. That's what happened to me. For years I suffered neglect and psychological and sexual abuse from him, with my mum being a silent witness. I had No One to Save Me, yet I survived.

Book Description
*THE INAUGURAL SARAH JESSICA PARKER PICK FOR BOOK CLUB CENTRAL* CHOSEN AS A 2017 BEST SUMMER READ PICK BY The Wall Street Journal • The Washington Post • The Seattle Times NAMED ONE OF THE MOST ANTICIPATED BOOKS OF 2017 BY Entertainment Weekly • Nylon • Elle • Redbook • W Magazine • The Chicago Review of Books JJ Ferguson has returned home to Pinewood, North Carolina, to build his dream house and to pursue his high school sweetheart, Ava. But as he reenters his former world, where factories are in decline and the legacy of Jim Crow is still felt, he’s startled to find that the people he once knew and loved have changed just as much as he has. Ava is now married and desperate for a baby, though she can’t seem to carry one to term. Her husband, Henry, has grown distant, frustrated by the demise of the furniture industry, which has outsourced to China and stripped the area of jobs. Ava’s mother, Sylvia, caters to and meddles with the lives of those around her, trying to fill the void left by her absent son. And Don, Sylvia’s unworthy but charming husband, just won’t stop hanging around. JJ’s return—and his plans to build a huge mansion overlooking Pinewood and woo Ava—not only unsettles their family, but stirs up the entire town. The ostentatious wealth that JJ has attained forces everyone to consider the cards they’ve been dealt, what more they want and deserve, and how they might go about getting it. Can they reorient their lives to align with their wishes rather than their current realities? Or are they all already resigned to the rhythms of the particular lives they lead? No One Is Coming to Save Us is a revelatory debut from an insightful voice: with echoes of The Great Gatsby it is an arresting and powerful novel about an extended African American family and their colliding visions of the American Dream. In evocative prose, Stephanie Powell Watts has crafted a full and stunning portrait that combines a universally resonant story with an intimate glimpse into the hearts of one family.

Nobody Can Save Me

Languages : en
Pages : 272
Book Description
"That feeling you are worthless, a failure and a burden, is not true. You are unstoppable!" - Matt Runnalls It's time to change the way we perceive and treat mental health. After losing ten mates to suicide and fighting hard for his own second chance at life, today Matt Runnalls' passion and purpose is to open up the conversation around this silent tragedy that affects thousands of people every day. His message is as fundamental as it is urgent: to put wellness back into our own hands and awaken each one of us to the fact we can help and support people at risk, in saving their own life. Learning to embrace the luminous insights that living with bipolar offers him, inspired Matt to tirelessly pour every ounce of his experiences, learnings and well-being principles into the book he wishes someone had given him when he was younger. Mental health is not about suffering; it's about seeing struggle, adversity and pain as a gift, a teacher to a better life and a better version of ourselves. It's about learning to embrace the breadth of human emotion that helps us strengthen the most important muscle, that of our emotional struggle. It's bringing hope and acceptance to those who are experiencing unbearable emotional pain. Matt's drive and personal story have helped him assemble the most practical tools and strategies from world-renowned thought-leaders and game-changers in the field of mental health, inspirational people he's been privileged to meet, work with and learn from. Matt presents an array of lifestyle practices and mindsets that can propel you or someone you know struggling, to true and deep well-being and an unstoppable future. Nobody Can Save Me is the powerful new dialogue around mental health that we've been waiting for! It bridges theory with straight-talking, lived-experience and presents real insight and applied action for people struggling and those that care for them: parents, schoolteachers, coaches, bosses, mentors. Let's get talking. "A personal hero of mine. Matt's unique perspective has helped thousands. This book is a must-read if you've ever experienced brain pain." Kevin Hines, bestselling author of Cracked, Not Broken: Surviving and Thriving After A Suicide Attempt.

Lord, no one loves me like You. No one comforts me like You. No one shelters me like You. There is no one, there is no one like You. Lord, no one can give me peace but You. No one can give me hope but You. No one can give me strength but You. There is no one, there is no one like You. Lord, no one is a friend like You. No one could save me from sin but You.
