Download or read book The Same River Twice written by Pam Mandel and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2020-11-03 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Acclaimed travel writer Pam Mandel's thrilling account of a life-defining journey from the California suburbs to Israel to the Himalayan peaks and back. Given the choice, Pam Mandel would say no and stay home. It was getting her nowhere, so she decided to say yes. Yes to hard work and hitch-hiking, to mean boyfriends and dirty travel, to unfolding the map and walking to its edges. Yes to unknown countries, night shifts, language lessons, bad decisions, to anything to make her feel real, visible, alive. A product of beige California suburbs, Mandel was overlooked and unexceptional. When her father ships her off on a youth group tour of Israel, he inadvertently catapults his seventeen-year-old daughter into a world of angry European backpackers, seize-the-day Israelis, and the fall out of cold war-era politics. Border violence hadn't been on the birthright tour agenda. But then neither had domestic violence, going broke, getting wasted, getting sick, or getting lost. With no guidance and no particular plan, utterly unprepared for what lies ahead, Mandel says yes to everything and everyone, embarking on an adventure across three continents and thousands of miles, from a cold water London flat to rural Pakistan, from the Nile River Delta to the snowy peaks of Ladakh and finally, back home to California, determined to shape a life that is truly hers. An extraordinary memoir of going away and growing up, The Same River Twice follows Mandel's tangled journey and shows how travel teaches and changes us, even while it helps us become exactly who we have been all along.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Think you know what rural America is like? Discover a plurality of perspectives in this enlightening anthology of stories that turns preconceptions on their head. Gracie sees a chance of fitting in at her South Carolina private school, until a “white trash”–themed Halloween party has her steering clear of the rich kids. Samuel’s Tejano family has both stood up to oppression and been a source of it, but now he’s ready to own his true sexual identity. A Puerto Rican teen in Utah discovers that being a rodeo queen means embracing her heritage, not shedding it. . . . For most of America’s history, rural people and culture have been casually mocked, stereotyped, and, in general, deeply misunderstood. Now an array of short stories, poetry, graphic short stories, and personal essays, along with anecdotes from the authors’ real lives, dives deep into the complexity and diversity of rural America and the people who call it home. Fifteen extraordinary authors—diverse in ethnic background, sexual orientation, geographic location, and socioeconomic status—explore the challenges, beauty, and nuances of growing up in rural America. From a mountain town in New Mexico to the gorges of New York to the arctic tundra of Alaska, you’ll find yourself visiting parts of this country you might not know existed—and meet characters whose lives might be surprisingly similar to your own.

Download or read book Sweet Buttcoins written by Dimitris Vareltzidis and published by Fulton Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2024-06-03 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sweet Buttcoins is about women and investments in cryptocurrencies (cryptos). They are both sweet to learn but very difficult to understand and master. One of the few girls who knew nothing about Bitcoins referred to them as Buttcoins, which was actually a very sweet mistake that inspired me to come up with the title of the book.My cryptos investments in 2022 were the best canvas to paint an interesting story. A real events story that combines my new endeavor in the cryptos world, interacting with women online, and my studies and experience in business administration (economics, business, negotiations, strategy, and marketing), as well as my hobbies.In this fascinating new world I chose to live from February 2022, luck plays a very important role. In cryptos, it is extremely difficult to distinguish real professionals from scammers. But as stated by Tom Cruise in the opening narration of legendary Color of Money, a 1986 movie directed by Martin Scorsese, starring Paul Newman and Tom Cruise as professional pool players: "Luck plays a part in nine-ball. But for some players...luck itself is not."I believe the story is interesting as it is inspired by real events, but it is even better if the reader listens to the songs and views movie trailers as their titles appear in it, in italics, or with their initials capitalized to recognize them. The songs, movies and series mentioned in the book as integral parts of the story are listed as appendix 1 for readers to enjoy, ideally simultaneously to reading the relevant sections of the book.The punchlines of the book are the following: a) cryptos are a goldmine but also a minefield and b) in investments and relationships, trust is the most important factor.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book is a true love letter, not only to Jha's own son but also to all of our sons and to the parents--especially mothers--who raise them.” —Ijeoma Oluo, author of So You Want to Talk About Race and Mediocre Beautifully written and deeply personal, this book follows the struggles and triumphs of one single, immigrant mother of color to raise an American feminist son. From teaching consent to counteracting problematic messages from the media, well-meaning family, and the culture at large, the author offers an empowering, imperfect feminism, brimming with honest insight and actionable advice. Informed by Jha's work as a professor of journalism specializing in social justice movements and social media, as well as by conversations with psychologists, experts, other parents and boys--and through powerful stories from her own life--How to Raise a Feminist Son shows us all how to be better feminists and better teachers of the next generation of men in this electrifying tour de force. Includes chapter takeaways, and an annotated bibliography of reading and watching recommendations for adults and children. "A beautiful hybrid of memoir, manifesto, instruction manual, and rumination on the power of story and possibilities of family." —Rebecca Solnit, author of The Mother of All Questions

Book excerpt: Powerful and compelling, this high-stakes, feminist reimagining of Little Red Riding Hood is perfect for fans of Stephanie Garber and Meagan Spooner. For as long as sixteen-year-old Adele can remember, the village of Oakvale has been surrounded by the dark wood—a forest filled with terrible monsters. A forest that light itself cannot penetrate. Unlike her fellow villagers, Adele cannot avoid the dark wood. Adele is one of a long line of guardians: women who secretly take on the form of a wolf, in order to protect their village. But when accepting her fate means giving up the boy she loves, abandoning the future she imagined for herself, and breaking her own moral code, she must decide how far she is willing to go to keep her neighbors safe.
