Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you could repeat one year of your life, what would you do differently? This heartwarming and hilarious novel from the authors of The Status of All Things and Your Perfect Life features three best friends who get the chance to return to the year they turned forty—the year that altered all of their lives, in ways big and small—and also get the opportunity to change their future. Jessie loves her son Lucas more than anything, but it tears her up inside that he was conceived in an affair that ended her marriage to a man she still loves, a man who just told her he's getting remarried. This time around, she’s determined to bury the secret of Lucas’ paternity, and to repair the fissures that sent her wandering the first time. Gabriela regrets that she wasted her most fertile years in hot pursuit of a publishing career. Yes, she’s one of the biggest authors in the world, but maybe what she really wanted to create was a family. With a chance to do it again, she’s focused on convincing her husband, Colin, to give her the baby she desires. Claire is the only one who has made peace with her past: her twenty-two year old daughter, Emily, is finally on track after the turmoil of adolescence, and she's recently gotten engaged, with the two carat diamond on her finger to prove it. But if she’s being honest, Claire still fantasizes about her own missed opportunities: a chance to bond with her mother before it was too late, and the possibility of preventing her daughter from years of anguish. Plus, there’s the man who got away—the man who may have been her one true love. But it doesn’t take long for all three women to learn that re-living a life and making different decisions only leads to new problems and consequences—and that the mistakes they made may, in fact, have been the best choices of all…

Download or read book Looking at Forty written by Houston Bailey and published by . This book was released on 2020-07-03 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is amazing how much meaning you can find in the mundane, if you just pay attention.You know that feeling you get when you think someone or something is looking over your shoulder? That is how I felt when I turned 39, with 40 looming, lurking. Like many of us I was worried about that approaching milestone. That worry was unfounded, as my year between 39 and 40 turned out to be the best year yet. It provided me with uncountable and unbelievable life lessons. I learned much about myself, about others, and about living a more rewarding life.That was because I decided to embrace this "looming" feeling. In my year leading up to 40, I tackled each day with a new and improved mindset and realized how many lessons existed in the seemingly mundane tasks of everyday life. I purposely appreciated the "small" things and I chose to take action on challenges I once shied away from. I noticed how life improved when I sought to be interested, and that in turn made things more interesting.This was a most meaningful year.

Book excerpt: Musaicum Books presents to you this meticulously collection of hundreds of life stories, recorded interviews and incredible vivid testimonies of former slaves from the American southern states, including photos of the people being interviewed and their extraordinary narratives. After the end of Civil War in 1865, more than four million slaves were set free. There were several efforts to record the remembrances of the former slaves. The Federal Writers' Project was one such project by the United States federal government to support writers during the Great Depression by asking them to interview and record the myriad stories and experiences of slavery of former slaves. The resulting collection preserved hundreds of life stories from 17 U.S. states that would otherwise have been lost in din of modernity and America's eagerness to deliberately forget the blot on its recent past.
