Book excerpt: Marjorie Glass is in danger. She has a special gift that a nefarious organization wants to use, and will do whatever it takes to possess it and her. In 2039, eleven-year-old Marj had an accident that triggered something unimaginable within her: she could suddenly communicate with her deceased great-great-grandfather, who was once an ace pilot and war hero. Now six years later, in a world impacted by catastrophic global warming and increased crime, Marj dreams of following in her great-great-grandfather’s footsteps to become a pilot, and hopefully beyond—on a mission to Mars! Unfortunately, while working towards her goal, she unwittingly becomes a person of interest to an unsanctioned super soldier program. Marj is not keen on the idea of becoming a puppet to the program’s cold-hearted commander, nor of his scientist’s unorthodox method to augment her special ability. So, a very capable young Marj ends up on the run, only to find much-needed collaborators in unexpected places. But how can she know for sure that they don’t just want her for her power too? Comprised of three novellas driven by emerging technology and spooky science, Noetic Marj Odyssey is a young woman’s adventurous, and often perilous, life journey. While losing family and friendships to forging new ones, Marj must also contend with corrupt forces on Earth and ultimately faces unexpected challenges on Mars—all of which will forever change her life.

It turns out that Jax bet on the game, hoping to earn enough money to repay a debt to someone who doesn't forgive easily.

The day Chris is roped into a police investigation is the day he realizes he made the wrong play.

Download or read book Ordinary Girls written by Jaquira Daz and published by Algonquin Books. This book was released on 2020-06-16 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the Must-Read Books of 2019 According to O: The Oprah Magazine * Time * Bustle * Electric Literature * Publishers Weekly * The Millions * The Week * Good Housekeeping “There is more life packed on each page of Ordinary Girls than some lives hold in a lifetime.” —Julia Alvarez In this searing memoir, Jaquira Díaz writes fiercely and eloquently of her challenging girlhood and triumphant coming of age. While growing up in housing projects in Puerto Rico and Miami Beach, Díaz found herself caught between extremes. As her family split apart and her mother battled schizophrenia, she was supported by the love of her friends. As she longed for a family and home, her life was upended by violence. As she celebrated her Puerto Rican culture, she couldn’t find support for her burgeoning sexual identity. From her own struggles with depression and sexual assault to Puerto Rico’s history of colonialism, every page of Ordinary Girls vibrates with music and lyricism. Díaz writes with raw and refreshing honesty, triumphantly mapping a way out of despair toward love and hope to become her version of the girl she always wanted to be. Reminiscent of Tara Westover’s Educated, Kiese Laymon’s Heavy, Mary Karr’s The Liars’ Club, and Terese Marie Mailhot’s Heart Berries, Jaquira Díaz’s memoir provides a vivid portrait of a life lived in (and beyond) the borders of Puerto Rico and its complicated history—and reads as electrically as a novel.

Download or read book So Far and Good written by John Straley and published by Soho Press. This book was released on 2021-12-07 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To his chagrin, Alaskan PI Cecil Younger learns his teenage daughter has launched her own detective agency. But when her first case goes awry, she’s going to need some help from an unlikely source: her father, who’s currently locked up in prison. The verdict from the three-judge panel is in. Cecil Younger, bumbling criminal defense investigator and totally embarrassing father, has been sentenced to seven-and-a-half years in prison for his involvement in . . . well, a number of things, ranging from destruction of private property to killing a guy. But compared to the original twenty-five-year sentence, it's not so bad. His success with getting his sentence reduced has attracted the attention of his fellow inmates, and one man, "Fourth Street," reaches out for advice for his upcoming parole hearing in exchange for protection and companionship. When he isn't reading Adrienne Rich or James Baldwin with Fourth Street, Cecil spends his time filling up large yellow legal pads. He writes, mostly, about his teenage daughter, Blossom, who is on a Nancy Drew–like quest to help her friend, George, discover the truth about her biological parents, which turns out to be complicated. Shortly after submitting a mail-in genetics test, George learns she is the infamous "Baby Jane Doe" who was kidnapped from her Native mother shortly after she was born. A media and legal circus quickly ensues, and George's reunion with her birth family isn’t the heartwarming story the journalists hoped it would be. There is an even darker secret about the baby-snatching case, a secret threatens to destroy not just George’s family—but Cecil’s as well.
