Book Description
Life is random and often fueled by coffee... Real life inspired. Life isn't always sunshine, rainbows, puppies and smiles. Actually more often than not, it can be downright dirty, unjust and unfair. Life can deal blow after blow and isn't always satisfied with just knocking one down, sometimes it needs to kick you a few times to drive its point home. We try to not take it personally, but there are times when it seems to keep slapping you in the face saying; "Nope, no happy for you today, or tomorrow or maybe even next week." You look around and wonder, what did I do to bring this upon myself? When life is in turmoil and you are left wondering why? Random Thoughts n' Lotsa Coffee is not your traditional self-help book. It holds no secret keys to happiness nor does it have all the answers to life and its problems. What this book contains is a series of musings based on the life experience of a woman from Maine. A woman who has seen both the darkest of days and the brightest of moments this life has to offer and one day decided to write about them. Covering such topics as being our own worst enemy, facing our past, letting go, facing our fears and more, Random Thoughts n' Lotsa Coffee is written in such a no nonsense tone with straightforward and blunt advice. You will feel as if you sitting with her in a local coffee shop talking about your life. You will feel inspired. You will feel empowered. Random Thoughts n' Lotsa Coffee will help you dig deep inside yourself for the strength to handle all that life throws at you.

Under the Sky We Make
Author: Kimberly Nicholas PhD
Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 0593328175
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 338
Book Description
** Los Angeles Times bestseller ** It's warming. It's us. We're sure. It's bad. But we can fix it. After speaking to the international public for close to fifteen years about sustainability, climate scientist Dr. Nicholas realized that concerned people were getting the wrong message about the climate crisis. Yes, companies and governments are hugely responsible for the mess we're in. But individuals CAN effect real, significant, and lasting change to solve this problem. Nicholas explores finding purpose in a warming world, combining her scientific expertise and her lived, personal experience in a way that seems fresh and deeply urgent: Agonizing over the climate costs of visiting loved ones overseas, how to find low-carbon love on Tinder, and even exploring her complicated family legacy involving supermarket turkeys. In her astonishing, bestselling book Under the Sky We Make, Nicholas does for climate science what Michael Pollan did more than a decade ago for the food on our plate: offering a hopeful, clear-eyed, and somehow also hilarious guide to effecting real change, starting in our own lives. Saving ourselves from climate apocalypse will require radical shifts within each of us, to effect real change in our society and culture. But it can be done. It requires, Dr. Nicholas argues, belief in our own agency and value, alongside a deep understanding that no one will ever hand us power--we're going to have to seize it for ourselves.

Author: Lisa Barr
Publisher: HarperCollins
ISBN: 0062895400
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 352
Book Description
A delicious, sharp novel about a woman who jets off to France after her perfect marriage collapses, putting the broken pieces of herself back together while rediscovering her own joie de vivre—a lust for life, art, and steamy sex. “Artful, feminist, and emotionally gripping. The Unbreakables is a remarkable tribute to a woman’s strength in the face of heartbreak and adversity.” — Helen Hoang, author of The Kiss Quotient The worst birthday ever might just be the gift of a lifetime… It’s Sophie Bloom’s forty-second birthday, and she’s ready for a night of celebration with Gabe, her longtime, devoted husband, and her two besties and their spouses. Dinner is served with a side of delicious gossip, including which North Grove residents were caught with their pants down on Ashley Madison after the secret on-line dating site for married and committed couples was hacked. Thirty-two million cheaters worldwide have been exposed…including Sophie’s “perfect” husband. To add insult to injury, she learns Gabe is the top cheater in their town. Humiliated and directionless, Sophie jumps into the unknown and flees to France to meet up with her teenage daughter who is studying abroad and nursing her own heartbreak. After a brief visit to Paris, Sophie heads out to the artist enclave of Saint-Paul-de-Vence. There, for the first time in a long time, Sophie acknowledges her own desires—not her husband’s, not her daughter’s—and rediscovers her essence with painful honesty and humor, reawakening both her sensuality and ambitions as a sculptor. As she sheds her past and travels the obstacle-filled off beaten path, Sophie Bloom is determined to blossom. Allowing her true self to emerge in the postcard beauty of Provence, Sophie must decide what is broken forever...and what it means to be truly unbreakable.
