Book excerpt: A collection of minimalist poetry that explores the hustle of the Canadian urban business world and the frustration and futility of chasing a dream of success that might not exist in the current capitalist society.

Download or read book Notes Taken in Sixty Years written by Richard Smith Elliott and published by . This book was released on 1883 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Ben. Franklin, Sol. Smith and Horace Greeley have written of themselves and their times. So have Argo, Lamartine, and many others. Abler men than I, no doubt; but because Jupiter is a great planet, do we say the little star shall not twinkle? And why, then, may not I write modestly of myself and times? As it would make the book too big for any writer to tell all the truth about himself, I need not tell distasteful things. It is therefore a safe business to write a memoir, as anything one would rather not tell can be left out; and if I think of any dubious things in my own life, I can pass them over. Great slices of the actual life of any man must be thrown aside, whether he or another tells the tale; but if the reader hankers after the untold, thinking it might be savory with peccadillos or the like, let him imagine the void filled with his own shortcomings, and he need not care to feast on those of men no better than himself."--Page [1].

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A heart-buckling ride of a romance by beloved author Erin Hahn, Even If It Breaks Your Heart is about two teens finding out that sometimes, the hardest part of discovering what you want is getting the courage to pursue it. The only thing keeping nineteen-year-old Case Michaels together after the death of his best friend, Walker, is a list Walker left behind of things he wants Case to accomplish in his absence. So far, though, Case hasn’t even been able to continue riding bulls in the rodeo circuit, something he’s done his entire life, balking at the thought of competing without Walker by his side. But the list? Case is determined to follow it to the letter– and he follows it all the way to Winnie Sutton. Eighteen-year-old Winnie Sutton just wants to keep her family together. She graduated high school early to work long shifts at the Michaels family ranch so she can support her younger siblings and a father who’s more than happy to let Winnie fill the responsible parent role. If she sometimes sneaks out to ride the horses herself and forget about life for a while– well, that’s no one else’s business– until the day she crashes headfirst into Case Michaels. Case sees her riding skills and immediately ropes her into competing for the ranch and becoming his friend. Winnie and Case couldn’t be more different, but Case can’t help but be inspired by Winnie’s badly-hidden passion for riding and competition. And there’s something about Case that makes Winnie want to try grasping onto a dream for herself, whether that’s a shot at a rodeo trophy, the annoyingly handsome rancher’s son who won’t leave her alone, or maybe both.

In Once Again, book III, the heroine, Elizabeth Randolph, continues on her path; a path that contains fear and heartbreak, as well as joy. She must release the urge to blindly follow her emotions if the joys of life are to continue to open up for her. She must not struggle. She must allow peace into her soul, but will she? Her anxiety is fueled by her nightmares. Or are they memories from a life long ago? Ruben Stone’s continued presence, after what Elizabeth believes he has done, keeps her from letting the joys of her life to unfold. Is it her mind or her memory that makes her hate him so? Will she let him destroy her? Rebeccah Wickford, now a young woman, must face her lineage or hide it forever. Will she continue to live as the Boston Brahmin her friends and neighbors believe her to be? Or will she acknowledge her lineage, possibly leaving her in the abyss between the white and black communities, never accepted by either one? George Parkman always deferred to John Appleton, Elizabeth’s husband, in the past. Will he continue to acquiesce his future to others? Or will he step up and finally make his feelings known? Will this family, created by Elizabeth, let their hearts determine their paths? Or will their joys be strangled by the past?
