Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the messy breakdown of her first (and only) relationship, Alice Attwood has sworn off men – for good. The only love she’s interested in is other people’s, which is why she puts all her time, effort and energy into her exclusive match-making service, ‘The Attachment Agency’. Running her business with clockwork precision, Alice sees herself as independent and successful; someone who can do everything on their own. She needs no one – well, apart from Lyndsey, her long-suffering assistant. But then Alice’s perfectly constructed world receives an unwelcome blast from the past: suddenly, the one thing keeping her sane, her beloved agency, is under threat. With no time to spare, Alice takes on the challenge to save her business, and, more terrifying still, finds she has to rely on others to do it. Amidst this confusion, Alice is thrown back into a world she swore she’d never set foot on again: one with the potential for love. Alice has to decide whether the juice is worth the squeeze, or whether going it alone is the only path for her. To get her life back on track and overcome the obstacles in her way, Alice will have to use every skill at her disposal, every favour owed and every trick in the book to rise to the occasion... and who knows, she may even get more than she bargained for in the process. Will Alice be able to do this? Or has the matchmaker met her match?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This remarkable true story takes the reader on a journey through the psychic experiences of psychic medium Joseph Tittel.

Helping to bring closure and validation to hundreds of clients over the years, Joseph shares some of his most intense experiences and messages from those who have passed. He explains how these messages have helped bring healing in a time of grief and a more fulfilled sense of living for those left behind to deal with their loss of a loved one. Joseph helps to empower readers to develop their own psychic abilities so that they may understand the signs they receive from those who have passed-signs that you could be experiencing from the other side every day without even knowing it.

Download or read book The Emperor of Scent written by Chandler Burr and published by Random House. This book was released on 2003-01-21 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For as long as anyone can remember, a man named Luca Turin has had an uncanny relationship with smells. He has been compared to the hero of Patrick Süskind’s novel Perfume, but his story is in fact stranger, because it is true. It concerns how he made use of his powerful gifts to solve one of the last great mysteries of the human body: how our noses work. Luca Turin can distinguish the components of just about any smell, from the world’s most refined perfumes to the air in a subway car on the Paris metro. A distinguished scientist, he once worked in an unrelated field, though he made a hobby of collecting fragrances. But when, as a lark, he published a collection of his reviews of the world’s perfumes, the book hit the small, insular business of perfume makers like a thunderclap. Who is this man Luca Turin, they demanded, and how does he know so much? The closed community of scent creation opened up to Luca Turin, and he discovered a fact that astonished him: no one in this world knew how smell worked. Billions and billions of dollars were spent creating scents in a manner amounting to glorified trial and error. The solution to the mystery of every other human sense has led to the Nobel Prize, if not vast riches. Why, Luca Turin thought, should smell be any different? So he gave his life to this great puzzle. And in the end, incredibly, it would seem that he solved it. But when enormously powerful interests are threatened and great reputations are at stake, Luca Turin learned, nothing is quite what it seems. Acclaimed writer Chandler Burr has spent four years chronicling Luca Turin’s quest to unravel the mystery of how our sense of smell works. What has emerged is an enthralling, magical book that changes the way we think about that area between our mouth and our eyes, and its profound, secret hold on our lives.

Hank and Hennie raise three children in a life full of struggles and internal conflicts. As their story unfolds across decades and thousands of miles, a deep, dark tragedy threatens to engulf them and tear them apart. Day Moon Howl: Marvin Spangler, an ill-equipped high school history teacher, is tasked with forming an auctioneering team to compete in a Tennessee state championship. Seeking a welcome diversion from his unfulfilling life, Marvin assembles a team of three very different individuals: the damaged prodigy Larry Jr., the obsessed jock Eric, and the disinterested beauty Helen. Together, they embark on a journey to achieve their dreams and conquer their nightmares. The Alternator: For one young man, the choice between life and death is always decided by a simple code of chance taught to him by his mentor: a gruff truck driver named Petty. A savant trucker, he travels coast to coast, holding the fate of those he encounters in his hand while listening to the Top 40 Countdown. But as he navigates his way through 1990s America, he must ask himself: are the rules there to keep the natural order or to prevent his dark impulses from spiraling out of control? Peppered with dark humor, 'The Alternator' is a lean, mean read that will leave you with a wicked smile on your face.

Download or read book Twelve written by Nick McDonell and published by Grove/Atlantic, Inc.. This book was released on 2010-07-06 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New York Times Notable Book: “An exceptional, assured debut [that] captures the zeitgeist of confused adolescents and a sick culture post-Columbine.”—Hartford Courant A national bestseller that inspired a major motion picture, this chilling novel follows prep school dropout White Mike through the week between Christmas and New Year’s 1999, as he deals an alluring new drug to his privileged peers on Manhattan’s Upper East Side. The kids of Twelve have it all; Chris and Claude and Hunter and Laura have the best, and most, of everything, but are constantly looking for something more exotic, and more dangerous. But Twelve is not a coming-of-age story, because these kids never had a childhood—their parents are off on holiday in Bali or business in Brussels, leaving hired help to look the other way as the kids stay home alone in their multimillion-dollar town houses, partying, surrounded by drugs and sex—and, in the end, much worse. “Renders Manhattan’s cosseted Upper East Side with both the casual authority of an insider and the wry distance of an observer…impressive.”—Jennifer Egan, The New York Times Book Review “Riveting in its no-holds-barred depiction of teenage nihilism.”—Jon Land, Providence Journal

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fairy tales reimagined—in stories by “a distinguished company of writers” including Neil Gaiman, Joyce Carol Oates, and Tanith Lee (Kirkus Reviews). For many of us, the fairy tale was our first exposure to the written word and the power of storytelling. These wondrous works of magic and morality enthralled us, enchanted us, sometimes terrified us, and remain in our hearts and memories still. Once again, World Fantasy Award–winning editors Ellen Datlow and Terri Windling have compiled an extraordinary collection of reimagined tales conceived by some of today’s most acclaimed contemporary purveyors of literary fantasy, science fiction, and horror, including Neil Gaiman, Gahan Wilson, Joyce Carol Oates, Tanith Lee, Nancy Kress, Gene Wolfe, and others. Remarkable things lurk in these dark and magical woods. Here Beauty confronts a serial-killer Beast, Hansel and Gretel’s witch resides not in a gingerbread house but in a luxurious resort, and Rumpelstiltskin is truly the devil demanding his due, rightfully or otherwise. The hilarious “Roach in Loafers” ingeniously combines the classic “Elves and the Shoemaker” tale with “Puss in Boots” and adds an insectile twist, while in a modern fable that blends The Wizard of Oz and Hans Christian Andersen, Dorothy is set adrift in Hollywoodland, ruby slippers and all. These are not the fairy stories you remember from childhood.
