Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gail Bowen continues to enthrall with her masterfully compelling storytelling in Book 17 of her nationally bestselling Joanne Kilbourn series, combining a modern urban family with a gripping, satisfying mystery. As Joanne Kilbourn-Shreve, her husband, Zack, and their soon-to-be seventeen-year-old daughter, Taylor, rush through the rain from their cottage to their car, the Thanksgiving weekend they just spent at the lake with Zack's law partners is already slipping away, burnished into memory as pleasantly as the hundreds of other weekends the Falconer-Shreve families have shared at Lawyers' Bay. Thoughts of the weekend past will now focus on the future and be prefaced by the words "next time." Within weeks, a triple homicide will rip apart the lives of those related to the lawyers who, at the end of their first year in law school, only half-jokingly styled themselves "The Winners' Circle." Dazed by grief, Joanne will seek answers to an impossible question: "Why did they die?" The facts behind the suicide of Christopher Altieri, known by his law partners as "the conscience of The Winners' Circle," appear to provide insights, but for Joanne those insights raise new, unsettling questions. Knitting this powerful narrative together is Joanne's unshakeable belief that the only thing worse than knowing is not knowing.

A trio of gal pals-mired in middle age, middle America, and other people's problems-long to escape. When, one of the friends, Bonnie Voss, wins the Boffo Lotto, her circle of friends urge her to lawyer up, invest, and sequester herself. But secrets are inconceivable in small towns, and the clamor for cash withers Bonnie's wallflower soul. It doesn't help that her former boss, the local pastor, is first to beseech funds for his church expansion plans.And so, Bonnie and her beau, Carl Edwards, invite close friends, Jackie and Steve Breeden, to witness their Vegas wedding and honeymoon in Hawaii with endless vagabond beyond. The sky's the limit!Meanwhile, the other gal pal, Fran Blackstone Rankin, the recently retired former high school administrator who married the local pastor, Paul Rankin, have agreed to supervise immature thirty-something son, Brandon Breeden's management of the Breeden Dairy in his dad's stead. The allure of travel is fun for a while-hilarious, in fact. A California trip segment, where Carl introduces Bonnie to his ex-wife and adult kids, proceeds fluidly. However, the Hawaiian honeymoon goes over overboard when a mai-tai-fueled hula performance brings unwanted tabloid and YouTube fame. The ex-wife reads 'The Enquirer' and immediately desires a piece of lottery pie.Bonnie's instant wealth didn't gain immediate status and respect, so her relationship with her travel partners is strained, and-back in Michigan-Fran finds that Brandon doesn't require her reins and her husband, the pastor, can not be dissuaded from his schemes.When the husbands are jailed on the travel foursome's first day in Australia, wanderlust is no longer a romp, and things get complicated when you're halfway round the world, untethered from all you know and love. Life has its consequences¿ and there's no place like home.With your circle of friends.

Download or read book This Red Line Goes Straight to Your Heart written by Madhur Anand and published by Strange Light. This book was released on 2020-06-30 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: WINNER OF THE 2020 GOVERNOR GENERAL'S LITERARY AWARD FOR NONFICTION “Wondrously and elegantly written in language that astonishes and moves the reader…This is an important book: an emotional and intellectual tour de force.” —Jane Urquhart An experimental memoir about Partition, immigration, and generational storytelling, This Red Line Goes Straight to Your Heart weaves together the poetry of memory with the science of embodied trauma, using the imagined voices of the past and the vital authority of the present. We begin with a man off balance: one in one thousand, the only child in town whose polio leads to partial paralysis. We meet his future wife, chanting Hai Rams for Gandhiji and choosing education over marriage. On one side of the line that divides this book, we follow them as their homeland splits in two and they are drawn together, moving to Canada and raising their children in mining towns and in crowded city apartments. And when we turn the book over, we find the daughter's tale—we see how the rupture of Partition, the asymmetry of a father's leg, the virus of a mother's rage, makes its way to the next generation. Told through the lenses of biology, physics, history and poetry, this is a memoir that defies form and convention to immerse the reader in the feeling of what remains when we've heard as much of the truth as our families will allow, and we're left to search for ourselves among the pieces they've carried with them.

Download or read book Great Circle written by Maggie Shipstead and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2022-04-05 with total page 673 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • A TODAY SHOW #ReadWithJenna BOOK CLUB PICK • The unforgettable story of a daredevil female aviator determined to chart her own course in life, at any cost: an “epic trip—through Prohibition and World War II, from Montana to London to present-day Hollywood—and you’ll relish every minute” (People). After being rescued as infants from a sinking ocean liner in 1914, Marian and Jamie Graves are raised by their dissolute uncle in Missoula, Montana. There--after encountering a pair of barnstorming pilots passing through town in beat-up biplanes--Marian commences her lifelong love affair with flight. At fourteen she drops out of school and finds an unexpected and dangerous patron in a wealthy bootlegger who provides a plane and subsidizes her lessons, an arrangement that will haunt her for the rest of her life, even as it allows her to fulfill her destiny: circumnavigating the globe by flying over the North and South Poles. A century later, Hadley Baxter is cast to play Marian in a film that centers on Marian's disappearance in Antarctica. Vibrant, canny, disgusted with the claustrophobia of Hollywood, Hadley is eager to redefine herself after a romantic film franchise has imprisoned her in the grip of cult celebrity. Her immersion into the character of Marian unfolds, thrillingly, alongside Marian's own story, as the two women's fates--and their hunger for self-determination in vastly different geographies and times--collide. Epic and emotional, meticulously researched and gloriously told, Great Circle is a monumental work of art, and a tremendous leap forward for the prodigiously gifted Maggie Shipstead.
