Book excerpt: What's the big deal? Unlike a lot of people, Matt Beckford is actually looking forward to turning thirty. His twenties really weren't so great...and now he has his love life, his career, his finances -- even his record collection -- pretty much in order, like any good grown-up should. But when, out of the blue, Elaine announces she "can't do this anymore," Matt is left with the prospect of facing the big three-oh alone. Compounding his misery is the fact that he has to move back in with his parents. What's it all about, Alfie? Mum and Dad immediately start driving Matt up the wall, and emails from Elaine and nights out with his old school chum Gershwin aren't enough to snap Matt out of his existential funk. So he decides to track down more old schoolmates and see how they're handling this thirty thing. One by one, he gets in touch with the rest of the magnificent seven -- Pete, Bev, Katrina, Elliot, and Ginny, his former on-off girlfriend -- and soon the old gang is back together. But they're a lot older and a lot has changed and, even if he and Ginny still seem attracted to each other, you can't have an on-off girlfriend when you're thirty. Can you?
Download or read book Turning Thirty written by Nat Cuddington and published by BookRix. This book was released on 2023-06-01 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Turning thirty isn’t a big deal. It’s fine, even. And Reese is totally fine and can totally turn thirty without freaking out. Well, she’s going to freak out, but not because she’s turning thirty. At her birthday party, Reese meets Felix, and she’s immediately captivated by him. (But she’s drunk, so that doesn’t count, right?) He makes her laugh but he also makes her question her sanity. Or maybe she’s questioning his sanity? Because you see, Felix is fantastic in every way besides the weird things that he does and scary things he seems to believe. Reese has a battle with herself (and her best friend) over whether or not this Felix guy is for real. Over whether or not he’s dangerous. But after experiencing something herself that should be impossible, Reese starts to realize that maybe Felix isn’t actually unsafe to be around. Maybe he’s even her safest option. After all, Reese has never felt so comfortable with anyone in her entire life, and Felix feels the same way. Given their circumstances though, making their relationship work is easier said than done. But it doesn’t hurt to pretend.

Book excerpt: This “book that strips off the traditional trappings of Islamic womanhood to expose the special strengths and vulnerabilities that lie beneath” (The Washington Post) affirms the reality of the romantic lives of Muslim women. Romance, dating, sex and—Muslim women? In this groundbreaking collection, twenty-five American Muslim writers sweep aside stereotypes to share their search for love openly for the first time, showing just how varied the search for love can be—from singles’ events and online dating, to college flirtations and arranged marriages, all with a uniquely Muslim twist. These stories are filled with passion and hope, loss and longing: A quintessential blonde California girl travels abroad to escape suffocating responsibilities at home, only to fall in love with a handsome Brazilian stranger she may never see again. An orthodox African-American woman must face her growing attraction to her female friend. A young girl defies her South Asian parents’ cultural expectations with an interracial relationship. And a Southern woman agrees to consider an arranged marriage, with surprising results. These compelling stories of love and romance create an irresistible balance of heart-warming and tantalizing, always revealing and deeply relatable. “A beautiful collection that reminds us all not only of the diversity of the American Muslim community, but the universality of the human condition, especially when it comes to something as magical and complicated as love.” —Reza Aslan, #1 New York Times bestselling author of God: A Human History “Portraits of private lives that expose a group in some cases kept literally veiled, yet that also illustrate that American Muslim women grapple with universal issues.” —The New York Times
