Book excerpt: Nathan and Isaac have been best friends since elementary school. When Isaac breaks down the friendship barrier and advances their relationship after senior prom, they begin their lives together. As the years go on, they discover more about each other, and what makes their relationship work. And while Nathan yearns to walk down the street with Isaac's hand in his, Isaac refuses to publicize their relationship to anyone more than their two best friends, Jake and Sydney. Nathan is okay with this. Having been in a relationship with Sydney prior to being with Isaac, he confides in her and cherishes her loyalty. When she confesses to having feelings for Nathan and Isaac's good friend, Jake, he finds out how loyal she truly is. As their relationship grows, Jake and Nathan's friendship slowly dwindles. Isaac, on the other hand, has trouble accepting Nathan and Sydney's relationship.He doesn't outwardly believe they are platonic, yet inwardly, he knows better. From the beginning, the reader knows that Nathan is leaving Isaac that very night. However, because of the story structure, the reason he is doing so is not revealed until much later. The first five chapters are told in flashback sequence that is, chapter one goes back six years, chapter two goes back five years, and so on, until the reader reaches the chapter where they discover what has happened. From then on out, the story takes place in the present (though still told in the past), with occasional flashbacks here and there to keep up the theme. Once Isaac finds out where Nathan has gone and he thinks he knows why he drops everything to chase after him. On the way he scrutinizes he and Nathan's relationship, and that causes him to second-guess himself and his intentions. Jake and Sydney do their best to convince him otherwise, and he once again embarks on the journey. This journey is not only physically, but also emotionally. He reevaluates his life and begins to accept himself.

Download or read book And Now We Have Everything written by Meaghan O'Connell and published by Little, Brown. This book was released on 2018-04-10 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A raw, funny, and fiercely honest account of becoming a mother before feeling like a grown up. When Meaghan O'Connell got accidentally pregnant in her twenties and decided to keep the baby, she realized that the book she needed -- a brutally honest, agenda-free reckoning with the emotional and existential impact of motherhood -- didn't exist. So she decided to write it herself. And Now We Have Everything is O'Connell's exploration of the cataclysmic, impossible-to-prepare-for experience of becoming a mother. With her dark humor and hair-trigger B.S. detector, O'Connell addresses the pervasive imposter syndrome that comes with unplanned pregnancy, the fantasies of a "natural" birth experience that erode maternal self-esteem, post-partum body and sex issues, and the fascinating strangeness of stepping into a new, not-yet-comfortable identity. Channeling fears and anxieties that are still taboo and often unspoken, And Now We Have Everything is an unflinchingly frank, funny, and visceral motherhood story for our times, about having a baby and staying, for better or worse, exactly yourself. Smart, funny, and true in all the best ways, this book made me ache with recognition." -- Cheryl Strayed

Book excerpt: We all have moments we wish we could relive. We'd give anything to skid down the toboggan hills of our youth, to breathe in the smell of our children as babies, or to spend just one more minute with someone we've lost. Dear Photograph provides a way to link these memories from the past to the present, overlapping them to see how the daydreams of our memories collide with our current realities. The idea is simple: hold up a photograph from the past in front of the place where it was originally taken, take a second photograph, and add a sentence of dedication about what the photograph means to you. The results, however, are astounding, which is why millions have flocked to dearphotograph.com and thousands have submitted their own Dear Photographs. This stunning visual compilation includes more than 140 never-before-seen Dear Photographs, as well as a space for you to attach your own cherished photo. By turns nostalgic, charming, and poignant, Dear Photograph evokes childhood memories, laments difficult losses, and, above all, celebrates the universal nature of love.

Download or read book The Fourth Turning written by William Strauss and published by Crown. This book was released on 1997-12-29 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NATIONAL BESTSELLER • Discover the game-changing theory of the cycles of history and what past generations can teach us about living through times of upheaval—with deep insights into the roles that Boomers, Generation X, and Millennials have to play—now with a new preface by Neil Howe. First comes a High, a period of confident expansion. Next comes an Awakening, a time of spiritual exploration and rebellion. Then comes an Unraveling, in which individualism triumphs over crumbling institutions. Last comes a Crisis—the Fourth Turning—when society passes through a great and perilous gate in history. William Strauss and Neil Howe will change the way you see the world—and your place in it. With blazing originality, The Fourth Turning illuminates the past, explains the present, and reimagines the future. Most remarkably, it offers an utterly persuasive prophecy about how America’s past will predict what comes next. Strauss and Howe base this vision on a provocative theory of American history. The authors look back five hundred years and uncover a distinct pattern: Modern history moves in cycles, each one lasting about the length of a long human life, each composed of four twenty-year eras—or “turnings”—that comprise history’s seasonal rhythm of growth, maturation, entropy, and rebirth. Illustrating this cycle through a brilliant analysis of the post–World War II period, The Fourth Turning offers bold predictions about how all of us can prepare, individually and collectively, for this rendezvous with destiny.
