Book excerpt: One woman’s journey of discovery as she travels the world on a budget with her young son.A free spirit by nature, Marnie has always been too adventurous for a suburban life or middle-class marriage. Her attempt at a conventional lifestyle gnawed at her spirit and left her frustrated with not fitting in. After her divorce, a brief, unsuitable relationship produces her miracle child, Toby. Marnie begins to see her world through the eyes of an impressionable child and realizes trying to conform to normal society is disheartening and downright painful.When Toby is two, Marnie decides to take charge of his upbringing rather than letting society, strangers, and daycares raise him. She believes travel is the best teacher—so the single mom swaps her car for an RV, and she and Toby set off to explore what is possible within their limited means.After six months on the road mixing with kindred spirits, Marnie and Toby struggle to reassimilate into the lifestyle that society expects. It’s clear that normality and conformity just aren’t for them!Hungry for unique experience and intrigued by “world schooling,” they take the plunge into a nomadic existence. They’re all in! This time there’s no going back. Soon they’re wandering the globe on a tight budget with adventure and life lessons around every corner.Through spiritual development and self-employment, a traumatic brain injury and a pandemic, Marnie breaks away from others’ expectations and learns to live life on her own terms. She would never have guessed when she set out to educate her son that she would also find her own truth.If there's one thing Marnie has learned, and one lesson that can be gleaned from her experiences, it’s that as you navigate the road of life, you will always encounter speed bumps. These speed bumps are little tests of your resolve to remain on your current path. If you are constantly running into roadblocks, rather than speed bumps, it's entirely likely that you are on the wrong road and it's time to take a different one. You, and only you, have the power to turn left when society is saying turn right. There is only one person that can change your trajectory—and that's YOU!

Download or read book Kill the Farm Boy written by Kevin Hearne and published by Del Rey. This book was released on 2018-07-17 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In an irreverent series in the tradition of Monty Python, the bestselling authors of the Iron Druid Chronicles and Star Wars: Phasma reinvent fantasy, fairy tales, and floridly written feast scenes. “Ranks among the best of Christopher Moore and Terry Pratchett.”—Chuck Wendig “When you put two authors of this high caliber together, expect fireworks. Or at least laughs. What a hoot!”—Terry Brooks Once upon a time, in a faraway kingdom, a hero, the Chosen One, was born . . . and so begins every fairy tale ever told. This is not that fairy tale. There is a Chosen One, but he is unlike any One who has ever been Chosened. And there is a faraway kingdom, but you have never been to a magical world quite like the land of Pell. There, a plucky farm boy will find more than he’s bargained for on his quest to awaken the sleeping princess in her cursed tower. First there’s the Dark Lord, who wishes for the boy’s untimely death . . . and also very fine cheese. Then there’s a bard without a song in her heart but with a very adorable and fuzzy tail, an assassin who fears not the night but is terrified of chickens, and a mighty fighter more frightened of her sword than of her chain-mail bikini. This journey will lead to sinister umlauts, a trash-talking goat, the Dread Necromancer Steve, and a strange and wondrous journey to the most peculiar “happily ever after” that ever once-upon-a-timed. Praise for Kill the Farm Boy “A rollicking fantasy adventure that upends numerous genre tropes in audacious style . . . a laugh-out-loud-funny fusion of Monty Python–esque humor and whimsy à la Terry Pratchett’s Discworld.”—Kirkus Reviews “Dawson and Hearne’s reimagining of a traditional fairy tale is reminiscent of William Goldman’s The Princess Bride and William Steig’s Shrek! Irreverent, funny, and full of entertaining wordplay, this will keep readers guessing until the end.”—Library Journal “Will have you laughing out loud until strangers begin to look at you oddly.”—SyFy “A smart comedy . . . nuanced, complicated, and human.”—Tordotcom “[Delilah Dawson and Kevin Hearne] make fun of the typical ‘white male power fantasies,’ and in that, they succeed, with their heroes all characters of color and/or falling somewhere under the LGBTQ umbrella.”—Publishers Weekly

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: #1 New York Times bestselling author Stephanie Laurens returns to the quintessential question of what family means to a Cynster in this tale of the last unmarried member of the Cynster Next Generation and the final mission that opens his eyes. Toby Cynster is not amused when informed that his new mission is to be his last in the shadowy service of Drake, Marquess of Winchelsea. Courtesy of Toby being the last unmarried Cynster of his generation and the consequent martial obsession of his female relatives, he will be given no more excuses to avoid society and, instead, expected to devote himself to finding a suitable bride. But Toby sees no point in marrying—thanks to his siblings, he has plenty of nephews and nieces with whom to play favorite uncle, and he has no thoughts of establishing a family of his own. But then the mission takes an unexpected turn, leaving Toby to escort the irritatingly fascinating Diana Locke plus the three young children of a dying Englishman from Vienna to England. Diana is no more enthused about their journey than Toby, but needs must, and forever practical, she bows to events and makes the best of things for her godchildren’s sakes. She’s determined to see them to safety in England and does her best to ignore her nonsensical and annoying awareness of Toby. But then their journey becomes a flight from deadly pursuit, and their most effective disguise is to pass themselves off as a family—the sort of family Toby had been certain he would never want. Through a succession of fraught adventures, Toby, Diana, and the children lean on each other and grow and mature while furthering their ultimate aim of reaching England safely, and along the way, Toby and Diana both learn what having a family actually means to them, individually and together, and each discovers the until-then-missing foundation stone of their future lives. A classic historical adventure romance that sprawls across Europe to end in the leafy depths of the English countryside. A Cynster Next Generation novel. A full-length historical romance of 108,000 words.

Download or read book The Life of Rabbi Benjamin and Family with the Mystery of Beer Sheva and Next Generation Continues Son of Abdul and Grace written by Morris D. Pollard and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2018-12-11 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This story has been with me for a long time—what the Israelite had to do until Jesus Christ became the sacrifice for us. There were cattlemen or ranchers who provide animals for food and wool, so this is one of those stories about a family that provided animals to the city for food and the story of a young lad wanting to do the L-rd G-d’s work while he was on this earth. He became a rabbi and had a family that became a doctor and rabbi and a housewife who solves mysteries and loves mankind. Please note that the words L-rd and G-d or L-rd G-d has the O missing because this is a story about the Jewish religion, so I give respect to their tradition of leaving the O out of the spelling of these words. I am a Gentile and practice the Protestant form of religion and have no Israelite blood or Jewish blood in my veins other than the gaffing into the vine by the blood that was shed on the cross of Calvary. Anything that you find that is not right, it is an error on the part of the author, for I have only the King James Bible and what I glean from the internet websites and the books in my library and the power of the Lord Jesus Christ through the Holy Spirit to guide me. This is where this information came from. Any name or names that is used in this book is made up to match a person or persons it is assigned to and given as a connection to any person, living or dead, for this is a work of fiction and has nothing to do with any family, living or dead, with these names or that time period.
