This engaging tale stays with you long after the final line is read." "I couldn’t put it down! Honestly! At one point I was standing in the dining room, knew I should go to bed, but stood there reading just one more chapter ... standing up." "A one-night read for me. Started the book early and finished as the sun was coming up, so one might say my attention was captured quickly and I couldn’t put it down. Thought provoking even after I finished the book. Not your standard romance or mystery. Surprises emerge!" "Those who enjoy Alex Cross’s wonderful family and close friends in James Patterson’s series will recognize similar dynamics here. The family and friends portrayed in Ithaca’s Soldier are the best. Their emotions are genuine, their affection and loyalty absolute. Already I care about them, admire the trust they have for one another, and can’t wait to see how they support each other in the books to follow." "From the first page I was totally drawn in to this powerful story of family love and adoration of four generations. Then the incident of sheer terror scared me to death! By the end, I was streaming tears! So many emotions in a realistic setting." "Fascinating book, engaging characters, realistic dialogue, true suspense. I’m so glad this is the first in a series, because I want there to be more." "Wonderful read. I loved it. It is different from anything else I’ve read. So many twists and turns, it keeps your interest." "Really enjoyed this book. This isn’t my normal go-to for a book to read, but I could not put it down.

That's the reality Noreen embraces when her husband of fifty years, long since deceased, returns with urgent warnings, proclamations of love and advice to assist her through her own impending death experience.

The Words of Our Father is a poignant, emotional love story that chronicles the lives of one family through the generations as they hold fast to each other and God through the tumultuous burdens of their world.

They find joy in each other and the simple pleasures of life as they create a legacy of love so strong that it transcends the boundaries between life and death.

Download or read book Hell If We Don t Change Our Ways written by Brittany Means and published by Zibby Books. This book was released on 2023-10-03 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A PEOPLE magazine pick, Best Books Fall 2023: “A breathtaking memoir about surviving a horrifying childhood; Means...transforms memories...into a work of art.” Starred review from Kirkus: “This book is an outstanding debut...A harrowing and soulful memoir to be read, savored, and reread." “Brittany Means has pieced together the shards of a devastating childhood in this powerful memoir. It’s gut-wrenching but at the same time triumphant, harrowing yet exquisitely told. Hell If We Don’t Change Our Ways is a story of survival that left me choked up and cheering.” –Jeannette Walls, author of The Glass Castle “The book's lasting impact might be what it demands of the memoir genre. Brittany Means has, at once, created the most readable and the most psychologically rigorous book I've read in decades. I needed the reminder that art can do this.” –Kiese Laymon, author of Heavy “I can’t write a story about myself as the sad, quiet child of two drug addicts. That’s not how it was, even when it was. To me, sleeping in the car was normal. Better, it was comfy and fun. I loved my bed made of clothes inside a trash bag that I sank into slowly like Uncle Fester from the Addams Family movie. . . . I loved the motels and their swimming pools and trashy daytime TV channels. . . . Nobody could tell us what to do.” Brittany Means’s childhood was a blur of highways and traumas that collapsed any effort to track time. Riding shotgun as her mother struggled to escape abusive relationships, Brittany didn’t care where they were going—to a roadside midwestern motel, a shelter, or The Barn in Indiana, the cluttered mansion her Pentecostal grandparents called home—as long as they were together. But every so often, her mom would surprise her—and leave. As Brittany grew older and questioned her own complicated relationships and the poverty, abuse, and instability that enveloped her, she began to recognize that hell wasn’t only the place she read about in the Bible; it was the cycle of violence that entrapped her family. Through footholds such as horror movies, neuropsychology, and strong bonds, Brittany makes sense of this cycle and finds a way to leave it. While untangling the web of her most painful memories, Brittany crafts a tale of self-preservation, resilience, and hope with a unique narrative style—a sparkling example of the human ability to withstand the most horrific experiences and still thrive.
Download or read book Reminiscences of a Christian Family written by Silas Dobbs McCaslin and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2015-02-13 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Silas McCaslin provides true stories about his grandparents and parents in their Christian lives in the early twentieth century South. He then describes his life in a small southern town in the 1940s and 1950s, filled with BB guns, barefoot summers, shooting marbles, riding bikes, unsupervised hours of outdoor play, unlocked doors, Saturday afternoon picture shows, plenty of mischief; Sunday church, and Wednesday prayer meetings; the arrival of the refrigerator, washing machine, air conditioning, television, and memories of presidents Roosevelt, Truman, and Eisenhower. Sufficient details are given of the tragic death of his father at age forty-five and the irrepressible determination of his widowed mother. These were simpler times and innocent times. Sis wistful narrative of growing up with big brother Jay will bring a smile to your face, as well as a touch of sadness for the loss of the positive side of an imperfect civilization that is lost forever. Dr. Terry L. Johnson (From the FOREWORD) For me to say that REMINISCENCES OF A CHRISTIAN FAMILY IN THE EARLY 20TH CENTURY SOUTH is an interesting work is an extremely inadequate description of the book. Assuredly it is that, but it is much, much more than that! For me, it was no less than intellectually consuming and emotionally captivating as I was escorted back into a long-forgotten period of this nations innocent history. In addition, the book was rendered more personal to me than usual. My first wife, deceased now, was Foy Taylor, the daughter of T.F. and Lavinia Taylor; they were a part of this book. Paige Cothren (Pastor, Speaker, and Christian Counselor)
