Download or read book Figuring Shit Out written by Amy Biancolli and published by Behler Publications, LLC. This book was released on 2014-09-29 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Your life isn't over." My dad says this. "I mean, YOUR life isn't over. Beyond the kids. You'll go on living, doing things. This isn't it." I know, I assure him. I have the kids. They need me. They're my life now. "OK," he replies, then grunts—more of a brief hum. He only hums when he thinks I'm full of shit. Shockingly single. Amy Biancolli's life went off script more dramatically than most after her husband of twenty years jumped off the roof of a parking garage. Left with three children, a three-story house, and a pile of knotty psychological complications, Amy realizes the flooding dishwasher, dead car battery, rapidly growing lawn, basement sump pump, and broken doorknob aren't going to fix themselves. She also realizes that "figuring shit out" means accepting the horrors that came her way, rolling with them, slogging through them, helping others through theirs, and working her way through life with love and laughter. Amy Biancolli is an author and journalist whose column appears in the Albany Times Union. Before that, Amy served as film critic for the Houston Chronicle where her reviews, published around the country, won her the 2007 Comment and Criticism Award from the Texas Associated Press Managing Editors Association. Biancolli is the author of House of Holy Fools: A Family Portrait in Six Cracked Parts, which earned her Albany Author of the Year. Amy lives in Albany, New York, with her three children.

Download or read book Musical Miles A Journey written by Mitch Alden and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2015-03-27 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Author and musician Mitch Alden wanted to record a new CD. Months after running a personal best at the 2009 New York City Marathon, he decided a new full-length CD would be his next goal. During an early spring run, however, the marathon bug emerged from winter's grip and took a bite out of him. As he ran, he formed the crazy idea of combining his passion for singing and running into one epic experience: he could record his CD at a friend's studio in Chicago and race the Chicago Marathon immediately afterward. Though he knew he could accomplish each individually, he wondered if his body would be able to withstand the many high-energy days in the studio only to race 26.2 miles when he was done. Alden shares his thoughts in Musical Miles, a memoir that is equal parts running, music and life lessons. It covers Alden's four-month training journey for the 2010 Chicago Marathon, exposes the mind of a passionate and driven independent artist, and attempts to answer the question of why we run.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NYPD Red is a special task force charged with protecting the interests of Manhattan's wealthiest and most powerful citizens. Discover the first three books in the New York Times bestselling detective series, from the world's #1 writer. NYPD Red 1 introduces Detectives First Grade Zach Jordan and Kylie MacDonald, new task-force partners and recent romantic exes. Their first assignment is to cover a Manhattan film festival called Hollywood on the Hudson. A Molotov cocktail explodes at a movie premiere, announcing the presence of a killer lurking on "set," scripting an explosive finale that will level New York and Hollywood. Zach and Kylie are called in NYPD Red 2 to Central Park, where a carousel is spinning a murder victim, a woman of vast wealth and even greater connections. Her death is the fourth in a string of shocking murders that has the city on edge, and political and personal secrets of the highest order hanging in the resolution of these scandalous crimes. NYPD Red 3 opens in the townhouse garage of Hunter Alden Jr., where the billionaire businessman makes a grisly discovery. When Alden's teenage son goes missing soon afterward, and his father seems oddly reluctant to find him, Detectives Zach Jordan and Kylie MacDonald find themselves behind the closed doors of New York high society and in the depths of depravity.

They will be joined by others whose deeds will determine their fate. It is a beginning. Their stories will intertwine and evolve over the course of two thousand years.

From Palestine at the dawn of the first millennium and journeying across fifty countries to a life among the stars in the third, the world will change around them, but their destinies remain the same.

Download or read book Breached written by Russell J. and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2024-01-18 with total page 470 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An American family's 134,000-word two-part, action-filled fiction story from the Vietnam era. Based on Ronald's tour guarding nuclear weapons in Europe and twin Rusty's actual combat narrative with the Marines in Vietnam. How the family, with an unflappable faith in their countries, duty to fight the spread of Communism, survived the war's turmoil that lambasted families, and the country's persona for years. Vietnam, the rabbit hole about some went in, some came out, and some are still there. Some memories won't leave you in peace. They haunt Rusty and Rory and go round and round in their memories until they write it. This thriller/adventure story is a bridge between fact and fiction set in the Vietnam era by a witness to the witnesses of the quagmire based on true life events. The twins and their childhood friends march off to the drumbeat of never having lost a war. They do their duty and struggle to make it home intact. Rory's fight is about a psychological/internal struggle of perseverance to battle a psychotic sergeant. Rusty's fight is about physical and emotional endurance in the face of constant death. Will Rusty survive his sister's prophecy and the family curse of twin Uncle Rusty being killed in World War II? Who survives, and who is smashed by war's merciless fist? The survivors drifted into psychodelamania for years. The lessons they learned and the map they used are relevant to the turmoil of today's world. This story unfolds unlike the traditional story. It unfolds more in a transitional, episodic, chapter-by-chapter of each brother's path. Good stories are exciting to read or watch, like a cobra fighting a mongoose. Folks fascinated. Gotta see what comes next. This is one of those war stories.

Download or read book Old Enough written by Haley Jakobson and published by Penguin Group. This book was released on 2024-06-11 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Finalist for the Lambda Literary Award in Bisexual Fiction “Old Enough is full of growth, heartbreak, and winsome bisexual chaos.”—Vogue A debut novel “as astute, funny, and loving as your best friend from college”* about a young bisexual woman who is pulled between a new sense of community and loyalty to a friendship she’s outgrown *Isle McElroy Savannah "Sav" Henry is almost the person she wants to be, or at least she's getting closer. It’s the second semester of her sophomore year. She’s finally come out as bisexual, is making friends with the other queers in her dorm, and has just about recovered from her disastrous first queer “situationship.” She is cautiously optimistic that her life is about to begin. But when she learns that Izzie, her best friend from childhood, has gotten engaged, Sav faces a crisis of confidence. Things with Izzie haven’t been the same since what happened between Sav and Izzie’s older brother when they were sixteen. Now, with the wedding around the corner, Sav is forced to reckon with trauma she thought she could put behind her. On top of it all, Sav can’t stop thinking about Wes from her Gender Studies class—sweet, funny Wes, with their long eyelashes and green backpack. There’s something different here—with Wes and with her new friends (who delight in teasing her about this face-burning crush); it feels, terrifyingly, like they might truly see her in a way no one has before. With a singularly funny, heartfelt voice, Old Enough explores queer love, community, and what it means to be a sexual assault survivor. Haley Jakobson has written a love letter to friendship and an honest depiction of what finding your people can feel like—for better or worse.
