Book excerpt: ALICE FEENEYS NEW YORK TIMES AND INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER “Boldly plotted, tightly knotted—a provocative true-or-false thriller that deepens and darkens to its ink-black finale. Marvelous.” —AJ Finn, author of The Woman in the Window My name is Amber Reynolds. There are three things you should know about me: 1. I’m in a coma. 2. My husband doesn’t love me anymore. 3. Sometimes I lie. Amber wakes up in a hospital. She can’t move. She can’t speak. She can’t open her eyes. She can hear everyone around her, but they have no idea. Amber doesn’t remember what happened, but she has a suspicion her husband had something to do with it. Alternating between her paralyzed present, the week before her accident, and a series of childhood diaries from twenty years ago, this brilliant psychological thriller asks: Is something really a lie if you believe it's the truth?

Book excerpt: 'The faces were all in shadow, the voices getting more strident with each word. My heart pounded in my chest. 'This has gone far enough,' a calm voice spoke. 'It stops here.' Shifting dark figures oozed away from the wall. 'I don't think so, my friend,' another man's cold voice retorted. I shivered. The shadows crept toward him. 'You'll never get away with this!' The man's slow, agonized moans pierced the night. Someone screamed... The scream was mine.' I never thought my eighteenth birthday would change my life so drastically. When Blair transferred to Enterprise for his senior year, I thought nothing of it. When I started having headaches all the time, I just assumed it was due to the nightmares I'd been having. My life was just normal. There was nothing special or unusual, or so I thought. What I've discovered is that I have a gift: I can hear others' thoughts, and what's more, I can feel them their pain and their joy. I can make them feel what I feel. I can see into the future. Blair is also clairvoyant; he's my guide. He tells me I, as well as all clairvoyants, have an obligation to use my gift for good. My father was gifted too. But there are those out there who want to use our gifts for evil purposes. They murdered my father, and I have an obligation to my father: I will find who killed him and stop them. This is the most difficult thing I've ever done. But I won't be alone. Blair and I are in this together forever.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A nuanced satire--both hilarious and disconcerting--that probes the blurred lines between empowerment, spirituality, and consumerism in our online lives. Lilian Quick is 40, single, and childless, working as a pet portrait artist. She paints the colored light only she can see, but animal aura portraits are a niche market at best. She's working hard to build her brand on social media and struggling to pay the rent. Her estranged cousin has become internet-famous as "Eleven" Novak, the face of a massive feminine lifestyle empowerment brand, and when Eleven comes to town on tour, the two women reconnect. Despite twenty years of unexplained silence, Eleven offers Lilian a place at The Temple, her Manhattan office. Lilian accepts, moves to New York, and quickly enrolls in The Ascendency, Eleven's signature program: an expensive, three-month training seminar on leadership, spiritual awakening, and marketing. Eleven is going to help her cousin become her best self: confident, affluent, and self-actualized. In just three months, Lilian's life changes drastically: She learns how to break her negative thought patterns, achieves financial solvency, grows an active and engaged online following, and builds authentic friendships. She finally feels seen for who she really is. Success! . . . But can Lilian trust everything Eleven says? This compelling, heartfelt satire asks us: How do we recognize authenticity when storytelling and magic have been co-opted by marketing?

Download or read book While I m Young written by Chloelia Salome and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2019-09-09 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I wrote this book because I think everyone has a story worth sharing. It's a reflection on where I come from. I know my story isn't special or crazy, but it represents who I am. People think a lot of things about me and paint me in a way that I never intended to be painted. I don't want to be remembered as the girl who authored seven books before turning 20, or the girl who plays violin and composes music, runs marathons, travels the world, models, and goes to law school. Yes, those are things I do. But no, I want to be remembered for something else: where I come from-who I am beneath all these resume builders. Beneath it all, I'm a normal girl, just like you. I have loving parents, supportive friends, drama, and hardships. At the end of the day, this book is not going to please everyone, but that's the risk you take when you write about your life and those in it. So here it is. For starters, my name is technically not Chloelia Salome-I'm someone you probably don't even know yet.

Download or read book i dog written by Jonathan Wesley Bell and published by First Edition Design Pub.. This book was released on 2015-02-16 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Randal Peyton Purcell can't guess what's coming when his doorbell rings one quiet Sunday in New York. The ringing interrupts his life of arrogant, self-satisfaction, of what he sees as his effortless superiority. His is an indifference to the weak and downtrodden. What he lets in at the doorbell is a spirit that becomes a stray dog of mythical wickedness. This is I DOG or 'Johann Sebastian Bark,' as Randy's German landlord and landlady name him. Johann is not only beyond description, his incessant barking destroys the peace and harmony of Randy's home. From there on, he stumbles through the wreckage into the secrets of elderly Nazis and to murder most foul. In this satiric novel, Randy's descent through the rings of hell brings him into the clutches of a nymphomaniac Korean Princess, to being kidnapped by a psychopathic teenage robber who endlessly haunts the Interstate but cannot drive. Finally, a Jew from Brooklyn who is convinced he's black, catches him up. Randy must survive a nightmarish theme park, a cataclysmic gun battle and an apocalyptic inferno before he can make a frantic dash to freedom through the Okefeenokee swamp. Irreverent, humorous and sarcastic, I Dog forces Randy to change his inner vision. He must shed his snakeskin of privilege and haughtiness before he can find a humble salvation. I DOG is comic on virtually everything. While It may offend, it is with good humor. On its serious side, I DOG gives numerous considerations on our communal 'how' and 'why' – and particularly mocks our belief that we are good enough to be made in God's likeness. I DOG says not so, but rather that we come in the image of our canine brethren. We jump through hoops and wear circus ruffs. One way or another all of us are dogs. I DOG.
