Americans have built an empire on the idea of “race,” a falsehood that damages us all but falls most heavily on the bodies of black women and men—bodies exploited through slavery and segregation, and, today, threatened, locked up, and murdered out of all proportion. What is it like to inhabit a black body and find a way to live within it? And how can we all honestly reckon with this fraught history and free ourselves from its burden? Between the World and Me is Ta-Nehisi Coates’s attempt to answer these questions in a letter to his adolescent son. Coates shares with his son—and readers—the story of his awakening to the truth about his place in the world through a series of revelatory experiences, from Howard University to Civil War battlefields, from the South Side of Chicago to Paris, from his childhood home to the living rooms of mothers whose children’s lives were taken as American plunder. Beautifully woven from personal narrative, reimagined history, and fresh, emotionally charged reportage, Between the World and Me clearly illuminates the past, bracingly confronts our present, and offers a transcendent vision for a way forward.

Book excerpt: I had a love-hate relationship with hockey players. They’d won over my protected, carefully-controlled heart, and I accepted that they had a place in my town. And in my heart. Mostly because Joel had waltzed right in and made himself at home. And…I’d fallen for him. Deep. But now the man had decided he was going to waltz back out…leaving a giant, hockey-player-sized hole in my soul and my heart shredded beneath his sharp skate blades. The man had broken me. And he’d done it with a smile on his face.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is 2299, in the distant world, New Hope. Peter West was on the verge of graduating from his primary school with big dreams for his future. With a starship license burning a hole in his pocket, he dreamed of someday owning his own spacecraft. Peter wanted to see what was out there and believed his only opportunity to do this was to join the Space Explorers, if they would only have him. Talented young pilot or not, Peter’s skills may not be enough to make the cut. And of course, there was the Galactic Lottery drawing, which was to take place on Earth’s New Year’s Day, after five years of selling tickets on three worlds—the grand prize being a state-of-the-art starship. Were Peter’s dreams about to come true? But he wasn’t the only one with their eyes on the starship. The syndicate operated out of the massive Gateway space station under the very noses of Earth’s Space Rangers. With their evil grips around the throats of key station personnel, they were able to hide their operation and carry out their criminal plans unabated. Felix Sandoval owed the syndicate big-time and was about to do something he may live to regret. Along with the starship prize came a trip to Earth, Peter’s ancestral home world. One way or another, Peter’s dreams were about to come true. Setting foot on another planet, the freedom of space . . . but dreams sometimes turn into nightmares. Luck turns bad, villains ruin plans, and of course, the chaos of space travel. The void is unforgiving. In his travels, he learns the answer to one of mankind’s burning questions, one that had been asked for millennia and would change the course of mankind forever. Are we alone? If only he could survive being, Lost Between Stars.
Download or read book The Luminaries written by Eleanor Catton and published by Little, Brown. This book was released on 2013-10-15 with total page 822 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The winner of the Man Booker Prize, this "expertly written, perfectly constructed" bestseller (The Guardian) is now a Starz miniseries. It is 1866, and Walter Moody has come to stake his claim in New Zealand's booming gold rush. On the stormy night of his arrival, he stumbles across a tense gathering of 12 local men who have met in secret to discuss a series of unexplained events: a wealthy man has vanished, a prostitute has tried to end her life, and an enormous cache of gold has been discovered in the home of a luckless drunk. Moody is soon drawn into a network of fates and fortunes that is as complex and exquisitely ornate as the night sky. Richly evoking a mid-nineteenth-century world of shipping, banking, and gold rush boom and bust, The Luminaries is at once a fiendishly clever ghost story, a gripping page-turner, and a thrilling novelistic achievement. It richly confirms that Eleanor Catton is one of the brightest stars in the international literary firmament.

Everyone does. Each of us has something we covet enough that we'd sell ourselves to have it. What's my tipping point, you ask? Apparently a cool quarter mil will do the trick. What does one do for 250 large, you wonder? Anything the infamous, gorgeous playboy of Seattle wants. For the next four months I'll be Shaw Mercer's arm candy, his beck and call girl, his faux girlfriend. I'll be his to command, mold, push and pull in any direction he sees fit. I'll fight falling into bed with him. I'll fight falling in love with him even harder. I'll fail at both. And when my past and present collide in the most unexpected of ways, I'll learn that while one man's love for me has never died, the only man's love I really want will never be mine. *Due to mature content, 18+ years only.

Download or read book The Multitude of Personalities Made Simple Lost Between details written by A.A. Hadi White and published by A.A. Hadi White. This book was released on 2023-01-24 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Multitude of Personalities Made Simple is a book that introduce a new revolutionary method in determining personalities accurately: Personalities are determined by attributes instead of types. Elements of personality are assessed through measurement rather than subjectively. Introduction of new categories that play a role in shaping personalities. Heart (Likes & Dislikes) Motivation (Belonging, Achievement, Daring, Indulging, Device, Ego and Affection) Interaction (By sound, sight or feeling) Process (According to rules, knowledge, creativity or relationship) Credibility Wisdom Integrity Allowing a mixture of elements from the same category, with one being the dominant, the next being the secondary, and so on. The method allows for a multitude of combinations of personality traits instead of confining personalities into 16 or 32 types. Personalities have different ways of interacting with others and the world. Either they are dominant in sound, sight or feeling (visual, auditory or kinaesthetic also known as VAK) Personalities have different ways of processing their thoughts and actions. There are laws that govern these categories and elements, without knowing them we will be confused (or even shocked) when people sometimes or seldom break their pattern of behaviors. The method is backed up with real life examples of famous people, stories and events. A total of 334 patterns of behaviors have been listed to help the reader to assess a person's personality. The Book points out symptoms of all villainous personalities, even the hardest one to spot like tricksters and psychopaths. The listed patterns of behavior also helps you to distinguish if the personality is acceptable, irritating, or villainous. It also helps you to determine how social, credible and wise a personality is. Books from The Lost Between Details series are meant to be: Easy to read: straight forward. Enjoyable to read: it has comics and stories as examples. Enlightening: Provides valuable information that will be used throughout life. I strongly recommend seeing the introductory video clip for the book I have added below as it list the categories and their elements https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4uG3pPDC_1I

Download or read book To Bless the Space Between Us written by John O'Donohue and published by Convergent Books. This book was released on 2008-03-04 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the author of the bestselling Anam Cara comes a beautiful collection of blessings to help readers through both the everyday and the extraordinary events of their lives. John O’Donohue, Irish teacher and poet, has been widely praised for his gift of drawing on Celtic spiritual traditions to create words of inspiration and wisdom for today. In To Bless the Space Between Us, his compelling blend of elegant, poetic language and spiritual insight offers readers comfort and encouragement on their journeys through life. O’Donohue looks at life’s thresholds—getting married, having children, starting a new job—and offers invaluable guidelines for making the transition from a known, familiar world into a new, unmapped territory. Most profoundly, however, O’Donohue explains “blessing” as a way of life, as a lens through which the whole world is transformed. O’Donohue awakens readers to timeless truths and shows the power they have to answer contemporary dilemmas and ease us through periods of change.
