Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “[A] witty, heartfelt debut novel about a belated coming-of-age.”—The New York Times Book Review (Editors’ Choice) Old friends discover how much has changed (and how much has stayed the same) when they reunite in their seaside hometown for one unforgettable summer—from the New York Times bestselling author of From the Corner of the Oval When Kate Campbell’s life in Manhattan suddenly implodes, she is forced to return to Sea Point, the small town full of quirky locals, quaint bungalows, and beautiful beaches where she grew up. She knows she won’t be home for long; she’s got every intention (and a three-point plan) to win back everything she thinks she’s lost. Meanwhile, Miles Hoffman—aka “The Prince of Sea Point”—has also returned home to prove to his mother that he’s capable of taking over the family business, and he’s promised to help his childhood best friend, Ziggy Miller, with his own financial struggles at the same time. Kate, Miles, and Ziggy converge in Sea Point as the town faces an identity crisis when a local developer tries to cash in on its potential. The summer swells, and white lies and long-buried secrets prove as corrosive as the salt air, threatening to forever erode not only the bonds between the three friends but also the landscape of the beachside community they call home. Full of heart and humor—and laced with biting wit—Rock the Boat proves that even when you know all the back roads, there aren’t any shortcuts to growing up.

Book excerpt: Students of pop music and pop culture as well as fans who have loved the music since it came into being will gain valuable insight into this genre of the 1970s and 1980s. Listen to New Wave Rock!: Exploring a Musical Genre contains background on new wave music in general, with an overview and history of new wave rock in particular. While the bulk of the book is devoted to analysis of 50 must-hear musical examples, which include artists, songs, and albums, the book also explores how this genre of the late 1970s and 1980s came into being, musical influences on the genre, and how the genre influenced later generations of artists. Additional chapters analyze the impact of new wave rock on American popular culture and the legacy of new wave music, including how the music is still used today in film and television soundtracks and in television commercials. The combination of detailed examination of specific artists, songs, and albums and discussion of background, legacy, and impact distinguish this book from others on the subject and make it a vital reference and interesting read for both students and music aficionados.

Download or read book Poems Of A Musical Flavour Volume 1 written by Tiara King and published by Royal Star Publishing. This book was released on 2018-08-13 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1989 I was 15 and started writing song lyrics. Why? Because I wanted to be the Australian version of Debbie Gibson, on whom I was also majorly crushing. I thought I was hot and wrote prolifically, although I started writing late in the year. I was also playing drums in my music class’s end-of-year musical. In 1990 I was 16 and out of school, listening to more, doing more, and reading more. So more artists were in my life and I was starting to analyse song lyrics, which I guess led me to analyse books... Little did I know over the seven and a bit years I wrote that it was setting me up for bigger and better scribblings, namely novels over 500 pages and 100,000 words, and now novellas and short stories. This book features lyrics I wrote from 1989 to 1990 and contains some witty one liners and anecdotes about what was happening, who I wanted to be, or who I had a crush on. They are not perfect, nor meant to be, they’re just the musings of a young teenage girl with crushes and dreams. Enjoy!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1989 I was 15 years old and started writing song lyrics. Why? Because I wanted to be the Australian version of Debbie Gibson. Music artists were in my life, and I started to analyse lyrics, which I guess led me to analyse books... Little did I know over the seven and a bit years I wrote that it was setting me up for bigger and better scribblings, namely novels over 500 pages and 125,000 words, and novellas, short stories and non-fictions.

Download or read book Making Hell Nervous written by M. E. Krystyna Zins and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2023-10-05 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Making Hell Nervous: Walking Beside the Jordan; A Cycle of Poetry contains a collection of witty, ironic, insightful, and somewhat quirky musings compiled over decades (1971-2021) and ending as the isolation period of the Novel virus evolved into "Ode to Novel Virus" through unique and fortuitous turning of beloved phrases upside down to bestow novel meaning and breathing new life into them to describe overflowing emotions of love, loss, betrayal, intrigue, and mystique. This feature runs consistently through as imagery enlightens lyrical leanings to her roots (the Beatles, Donovan, Rick Springfield, Carly Simon), not to mention the theatrical influences (Les Mis, Grease, West Side Story). The Divide Motion Picture holds the distinction of inspiring "Desperado" and "Come Home." Though we all may see our reflections mirrored back, the author promises that angst and ennui of beloved characters' "true stories" actually exist. Beginning with herself ("Sweet Ingenue," "Tired Young Girl's Lament," "Gypsy") and her sister ("Bluer Than Skies"), then moving to the royal romance of Andrew and Fergie ("Flying High"), and ending with political intrigue of Watergate ("Guerrilla Warfare Scandals"). Most of the poems were written in the eighties, during the time of the romance and intrigue of Luke and Laura on General Hospital and the arrival of infamous Dr. Noah Drake ("In Port Charles Town," "Doctor, Don't You Know?," "King of Heartache"). The premiere of Perry King's directorial debut, The Divide Motion Picture awoke the dream hidden deep in her heart to publish this book. A sermon by T. D. Jakes brought to light the realization that God bestowed every word upon the poetess, especially the creation of the title as she gratefully discovered the meaning of following your dream to cross over the Jordan. May all who read this live long and prosper at a time such as this, of the Novel virus, as you too, "follow your dreams across the Jordan."
