Book excerpt: Set in the charming town of Peachtree Bluff, “a compelling, beautifully drawn tale of love, hope, and small-town secrets” (Mary Alice Monroe, New York Times bestselling author) following a trio of sisters and their mother as they discover a truth that will change not only the way they see themselves but also how they fit together as a family. Sloane’s world crumbles after receiving the news that her military husband is missing in action. She can barely climb out of bed, much less summon the strength to be the parent her children deserve. Her mother, Ansley, provides a much-needed respite as she puts her personal life on hold to help Sloane and her grandchildren wade through their new grief-stricken lives. But between caring for her own aging mother, her daughters, and her grandchildren, Ansley’s private worry is that secrets from her past will come to light. But when Sloane’s sisters, Caroline and Emerson, remind Sloane that no matter what, she promised her husband she would carry on for their young sons, Sloane finds the support and courage she needs to chase her biggest dreams—and face her deepest fears. Taking a cue from her middle daughter, Ansley takes her own leap of faith and realizes that, after all this time, she might finally be able to have it all. Lyrical, warm-hearted, and charming, “Kristy Woodson Harvey has delivered another masterpiece with the second book in her beautifully Southern, evocative Peachtree Bluff series” (Kristin Harmel, author of The Winemaker’s Wife).

Download or read book Island Of Memory written by Roberto Diego Lopez and published by Dog Ear Publishing. This book was released on 2015-09-28 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THIS warm, sometimes funny, and deeply emotional memoir tells what it was like growing up more than half a century ago in pre-Castro Cuba. Roberto López recounts a very personal story of family, school experiences, and friendships. He relates what it was like to be Cuban and what Cuba—in those days—looked and felt like: the streets of old Havana and his lively neighborhood where streetcars were so crowded passengers might have to climb on top, where peddlers plied everything from fish to sweets, and where men gathered in the bodegas to play dice on shiny mahogany counters while drinking beer or downing cup after cup of hot, black, sweet, and wickedly strong coffee. López wrote Island of Memory primarily as a tribute to a people and a place but he also tells what it was like when things ruptured—when the communists took over— and made it impossible for him to stay, or to return.

Download or read book Starting from Staten Island Memories of Peace and War in the 1930s and 1940s written by George T. Wright and published by Wheatmark, Inc.. This book was released on 2014-09-14 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My earlier book, The Wrights of Vermont (Wheatmark, 2013), reported the search I began about ten years ago for my father's Vermont forebears. I had learned a lot, especially about my grandmother's heroic efforts to save her shaky marriage. Eventually she left Vermont to begin a new life on Staten Island for herself and her two sons, Dad and Uncle Ray. This book shows Dad and Mother starting their family on Staten Island and describes our home, our neighborhood, the boarding house where we sometimes dined, the schools we attended, the songs we sang, how we learned to think about money, work, fun, guilt, and politics, and our experience, especially mine, of illness, solitude, and books. Later chapters show our horizons expanding. They tell where we went on outings and how we spent our summers (ours at a riverside cottage near the New Jersey coast, and mine at an unusual summer camp in upstate New York), and they sketch the different world we found when we moved to Manhattan in 1941. I entered Columbia then and began to discover new realms of literature, philosophy, and music. Then at eighteen, with other young men of that time, I was swept up into military service in the U.S. Army and war in France and Germany.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Summary about this story: "The Day the Tall Man Got Lost" is a touching children's story that takes readers on a fantastic journey with Tim, the tallest man in the world, as he finds a mysterious map that leads him to Tiny Island. Tim lived in a big city not too far away. The world around him seemed small and unimportant because he was so tall. But when he found a map to Tiny Island, he couldn't turn down the chance for an adventure. Tim found himself on Tiny Island, where everything was small, including the trees, houses, and, most importantly, the Littles, who were tiny people. Tim was greeted with open arms by these friendly people, and he quickly learned that their way of life was marked by their friendliness, sense of community, and simplicity. Tim and the Littles went on a beautiful journey. They went through honey-scented flower fields, sparkling woods, and magical places like Tiny Lake and Tiny Market. He was amazed by how beautiful this small world was, and he became close with the people who lived there. Tim knew it was time to leave the tiny world that had won his heart and go back to the big city as the sun went down. The Littles waved goodbye with their tiny hands, and their bright eyes showed both sadness and hope. When Tim went back to the busy city, he couldn't stop thinking about his day on Tiny Island. He had learned that real greatness was not measured by how tall you are but by how many connections you have, how generous you are, and how well you can see beauty in simple things. Tim's life in the big city changed when he put what he learned on Tiny Island to use. He tried to get his friends to live more simply, love nature, and feel like they were part of a community. He helped people for free and told them about what he had learned, which made them kinder and simpler. Tim always had memories of Tiny Island with him, even though he lived in a big, complicated world. The lessons he had learned and the friends he had made changed his life. He knew that sometimes the most amazing things can happen in the most ordinary places, and that the most magical things can happen in the most ordinary times. "The Day the Tall Man Got Lost" is a story about finding yourself, changing, and the power of kindness and community that lasts. It tells us that the most exciting things can happen in the most unexpected places, and that the most profound and lasting magic can happen in the most ordinary things. Here's how the story starts: Once upon a time, on a bright morning in a place not too far away, a tall man named Tim lived there. Tim was a good example of the power of being taller than most people. He stood out in a world where most people couldn't even reach his chest. He was amazed by the unique view his height gave him, since he was so tall that even the largest people of his time were dwarfed by him. From his point of view, the way the world worked was both interesting and strange. Tim lived in the middle of a huge, busy city in a big, stately house that fit his towering height. It was a beautiful building that looked like it reached for the sky, and it reflected how powerful he was in the city. The greatness of the building was shown by its beautiful front, which had intricate carvings and tall columns on either side of the entrance. Tim looked out over the skyline from his luxurious home with a sense of power. He watched the tiny people below going about their daily lives as if they were small figures in a big diorama. Tim's world was full of highs and lows. The things he did every day showed how different things were in his surroundings. He walked through the twisting streets of the city and felt like a giant among the people who lived there. In comparison, the busy people looked like a sea of moving dots, and the cars moving below him looked like small toys. Even everyday things like lampposts and park benches looked like tiny decorations in his huge kingdom. Tim loved the many benefits of being taller than most people. He thought it was great that he didn't need ladders to get things off high shelves or change light bulbs. His friends used to joke that he had a "top shelf" view of life. Even though it was easy and interesting, his height made him feel alone. When he talked to other people, he often had to stoop or crouch, as if he were physically and mentally lowering himself to their level. Even though he looked powerful and had a lot of luxury, Tim was interested in a lot more than his big house and the city around it. He wanted to see the world from a different point of view and understand what it was like to live with people whose lives seemed so small compared to his. Tim was digging around in his closet one morning when he came across an old, worn-out map that would change his life forever. He was interested in the paper because it had a picture of Tiny Island on it. It drew him in with the promise of magic and wonder, and he couldn't resist the pull of the unknown. Tim went on an adventure, holding the map tightly in his huge hand. He was going to a world that was the exact opposite of his own. The trip itself to Tiny Island was an adventure. Tim, the giant, got on a small boat that seemed so small compared to him that it was almost funny. As he flew away from the tall buildings of the city, the world around him changed in a big way. The water spread out in front of him, and it looked like the sky went on forever. It was a big change from his everyday life, which was spent in crowded streets and big buildings. As the boat got closer to Tiny Island, Tim's heart rate went up. When he stepped onto the island, he felt like Gulliver in the land of the Lilliputians. The trees around him were only about as tall as his knee, and their leaves moved slowly in the breeze. The flowers' many colors look like little pearls strewn all over the ground. The houses he found were small and cozy, about the size of dollhouses, and they were hidden among the plants and flowers like gifts. Tim was most interested in the people who lived on Tiny Island, though. These little people, who were no taller than his hand, made him smile with their strangeness. Their eyes shone like stars, and their big smiles made them look warm and friendly. When a giant from the big world showed up, it got their attention. They welcomed him with open arms. Tim and the Littles went on an adventure to find out more about the magical world of Tiny Island. The Littles were so happy as they led him through fields of tiny flowers that smelled so good. They went through beautiful woods where the trees sparkled in the light, and they showed him the smallest animals on the island. As the day went on, Tim couldn't help but be amazed by how beautiful and simple Tiny Island was. In a world where everything was small and fragile, he learned a lot about how complicated life can be. He liked the Littles' ability to make a thriving community even though they were small. Their tiny leaf-and-twig homes were works of art, and their tiny crops gave them a lot of food. Tim's friendship with the Littles grew stronger as time went on. They told each other stories and laughed, and Tim realized that they had a lot in common despite how different they looked. He learned a lot from the Littles about being part of a group, being kind, and enjoying the simple things in life. Tim knew it was time to leave Tiny Island when the orange and pink colors of the setting sun filled the sky with golden rays. The Littles came to say their last goodbyes, and their small voices were full of sadness and thanks. They had grown to like the huge guest, and when they left, it meant the end of a great day. Tim went back to the small boat that would take him back to the big city. The Littles showed him the way. He thanked his new friends very much and promised to come back. As the boat moved away, he looked back at the small island and thought about how nice the day had been. Tim couldn't help but think about his trip to Tiny Island when he got back to the big city with its tall buildings and busy streets. It had been a day of magic and new discoveries that had changed his view of life for good. Even though he was the biggest person on Earth, he found that the people of Tiny Island had a lot to teach him. Tim went for a walk one day when the sun cast a warm, golden glow over the city and made everything look warm and inviting. On this beautiful morning, Tim's path led him to a surprising find because of a bit of luck. As he walked down the streets he knew, lost in thought, he came across a part of the city that looked like it wasn't being taken care of. There, a charming old bookstore was nestled between new shops. Tim's attention was drawn to a dusty window display. Beneath the layers of age and disrepair was a treasure chest of forgotten stories. He opened the door, which creaked, and walked into the cozy little shop. The walls were lined with rows and rows of books, whose spines sagged from holding so many stories. The air was full of the smell of old paper, a relaxing scent that took him back in time right away. As he walked along the shelves, his fingers ran over the old covers of the books. Each one held a world of adventure in its pages. But it wasn't a book that brought him in that day; it was a faded, old map that stood out on a small wooden board next to the bar. The title "Tiny Island" was written in a fancy, curling script that seemed to whisper secrets of a long-gone world. The map was framed in broken leather. The paper had turned yellow from age, and the ink lines made complicated landscapes and strange shapes that hinted at adventure and mystery. Tim's interest was first sparked by the intriguing word, but it grew into a strong desire to see this unknown country. The chart's appeal drew him in, and he couldn't say no to the temptation it offered. As shown on the map, Tiny Island wasn't just any island. It was a magical place where reality seemed to shrink to comedic proportions. People said that it was home to tiny people, animals that were no bigger than his palm, and homes that were no bigger than his palm. Tim's heartbeat fast as he held the map, which felt rough and brittle to the touch. He felt like an adventurer from one of the many books he had read in his huge home library. The idea of going somewhere where everything was small and pretty was enticing, like a call to step out of the everyday and into the unusual. Tim didn't think twice before making his choice. He was going to Tiny Island, a place that offered more magic and adventure than he could have ever imagined. He set off on a trip that would take him far out of his comfort zone. He left the busy streets of the city, which seemed tiny next to their huge size, behind.

Book excerpt: From the New York Times bestselling author Kristin Hannah comes a powerful novel of love, loss, and the magic of friendship. . . . now a #1 Netflix series! In the turbulent summer of 1974, Kate Mularkey has accepted her place at the bottom of the eighth-grade social food chain. Then, to her amazement, the "coolest girl in the world" moves in across the street and wants to be her friend. Tully Hart seems to have it all---beauty, brains, ambition. On the surface they are as opposite as two people can be: Kate, doomed to be forever uncool, with a loving family who mortifies her at every turn. Tully, steeped in glamour and mystery, but with a secret that is destroying her. They make a pact to be best friends forever; by summer's end they've become TullyandKate. Inseparable. So begins Kristin Hannah's magnificent new novel. Spanning more than three decades and playing out across the ever-changing face of the Pacific Northwest, Firefly Lane is the poignant, powerful story of two women and the friendship that becomes the bulkhead of their lives. From the beginning, Tully is desperate to prove her worth to the world. Abandoned by her mother at an early age, she longs to be loved unconditionally. In the glittering, big-hair era of the eighties, she looks to men to fill the void in her soul. But in the buttoned-down nineties, it is television news that captivates her. She will follow her own blind ambition to New York and around the globe, finding fame and success . . . and loneliness. Kate knows early on that her life will be nothing special. Throughout college, she pretends to be driven by a need for success, but all she really wants is to fall in love and have children and live an ordinary life. In her own quiet way, Kate is as driven as Tully. What she doesn't know is how being a wife and mother will change her . . . how she'll lose sight of who she once was, and what she once wanted. And how much she'll envy her famous best friend. . . . For thirty years, Tully and Kate buoy each other through life, weathering the storms of friendship---jealousy, anger, hurt, resentment. They think they've survived it all until a single act of betrayal tears them apart . . . and puts their courage and friendship to the ultimate test. Firefly Lane is for anyone who ever drank Boone's Farm apple wine while listening to Abba or Fleetwood Mac. More than a coming-of-age novel, it's the story of a generation of women who were both blessed and cursed by choices. It's about promises and secrets and betrayals. And ultimately, about the one person who really, truly knows you---and knows what has the power to hurt you . . . and heal you. Firefly Lane is a story you'll never forget . . . one you'll want to pass on to your best friend.
