Category : Young Adult Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 244
Book Description
A piercing, unforgettable love story set in Greenwood, Oklahoma, also known as the “Black Wall Street,” and against the Tulsa Race Massacre of 1921. Isaiah Wilson is, on the surface, a town troublemaker, but is hiding that he is an avid reader and secret poet, never leaving home without his journal. Angel Hill is a loner, mostly disregarded by her peers as a goody-goody. Her father is dying, and her family’s financial situation is in turmoil. Though they’ve attended the same schools, Isaiah never noticed Angel as anything but a dorky, Bible toting church girl. Then their English teacher offers them a job on her mobile library, a three-wheel, two-seater bike. Angel can’t turn down the money and Isaiah is soon eager to be in such close quarters with Angel every afternoon. But life changes on May 31, 1921 when a vicious white mob storms the Black community of Greenwood, leaving the town destroyed and thousands of residents displaced. Only then, Isaiah, Angel, and their peers realize who their real enemies are.

Holy Angels
Author: Sebastian Chukwuma Anokwulu
Publisher: Trafford Publishing
ISBN: 1490713530
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 155
Book Description
This book is a testimony of faith to reawaken in the reader the presence and ministry of the Holy Angels as ordained by God and revealed in the Holy Bible. The Holy Angels as Messengers of God are never treated in isolation from God. Whenever and wherever they are mentioned in the Scriptures, it is always to inform us further about God's love and care for man. Using wide range of Biblical citations and narratives from the OT and NT, the early Christian community, the Church Fathers, lives of some famous Saints and personal encounters, the author leads the reader to see that these Holy Messengers still minister to us today. The book strongly re-emphasizes the truths about the love and care of the Holy Angels to man as commanded by God. Where there is light, there is no darkness. Demons or evil spirits do not work where the Holy Angels minister. Whoever believes in the works of the devil should believe more in the ministry of the Holy Angels because it is in their absence that the evil one operates. The author wants the reader to realize that as life is miserable without light and light energy, so miserable is a life without the presence and ministry of the Holy Angels. God sent them to help those who are to "inherit salvation" (Heb. 1:14).

Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 204
Book Description
When Celeste runs into Angel, one of the city’s growing homeless population, in front of Truman’s building, she invites them to a street festival in Gladys Park. Angel proves to be a talented contralto at the event, and Truman meets Dyson, an outreach worker who hires him to track down some seemingly valueless stolen property. Truman’s instincts and his 1930s-era detective handbook lead him to more questions, and he’s confronted with the fact that the guy he’s crushing on may be playing him. As they dig deeper, Celeste goes undercover in a developer’s office, where she turns the head of Flint, the wealthy family’s scion. Truman follows the clues in an old book about flying saucers, traveling around Los Angeles and subsequently uncovering local government corruption and a nest of old-time white supremacists. Join the bar-hopping, booze-swilling duo as Celeste has to decide whether Flint’s social status is compatible with her worldview, Truman confronts the paranoia of conspiracy theorists, and the pair enlist their new Skid Row friend to join the battle against corruption.
