Book excerpt: THE INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER VOTED GOODREADS CHOICE AWARD BEST HORROR NOVEL OF 2021 A Good Morning America Buzz Pick “The horror master…puts his unique spin on slasher movie tropes.”-USA Today A can't-miss summer read, selected by The New York Times, Oprah Daily, Time, USA Today, The Philadelphia Inquirer, CNN, LitHub, BookRiot, Bustle, Popsugar and the New York Public Library In horror movies, the final girls are the ones left standing when the credits roll. They made it through the worst night of their lives…but what happens after? Like his bestselling novel The Southern Book Club’s Guide to Slaying Vampires, Grady Hendrix’s latest is a fast-paced, frightening, and wickedly humorous thriller. From chain saws to summer camp slayers, The Final Girl Support Group pays tribute to and slyly subverts our most popular horror films—movies like The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, A Nightmare on Elm Street, and Scream. Lynnette Tarkington is a real-life final girl who survived a massacre. For more than a decade, she’s been meeting with five other final girls and their therapist in a support group for those who survived the unthinkable, working to put their lives back together. Then one woman misses a meeting, and their worst fears are realized—someone knows about the group and is determined to rip their lives apart again, piece by piece. But the thing about final girls is that no matter how bad the odds, how dark the night, how sharp the knife, they will never, ever give up.

Book excerpt: Neglected beyond belief, rescued by love... Dani was so severely neglected by her birth mother that she grew up knowing only squalor. She never went to school or the doctor, and rarely glimpsed sunlight. Desperately malnourished, she couldn't talk and had never been toilet-trained. The social worker who took her into care had never heard of a case so horrific. The doctors believed Dani would never recover from such a terrible start in life. Then she met the Lierows - a unique, blended family who were seeking to adopt a child. Despite being warned that she was way beyond hope of a normal life, they were instantly drawn to her and sensed a bright light behind her pale complexion. When they finally adopted her, they showered Dani with so much affection and encouragement that she came to life for the first time. Proving all the experts wrong, Dani would go on to open up and express herself in a way that no-one could have expected. Dani's remarkable and heartwarming story is a testament of the power of kindness to overcome even the most seemingly insurmountable challenges.

Shе never even tоuсhеd herself in front оf Trеvоr. Dаnі wаѕn't ѕurе ѕhе fеlt соmfоrtаblе mаѕturbаtіng whіlе someone's еlѕе'ѕ eyes wеrе uроn hеr. Shе rеmеmbеrеd Sаm аnd Ashley saying if ѕhе gоt tоо unсоmfоrtаblе she соuld еnd thе game аt any tіmе. Mауbе іt wаѕ tіmе tо pack іt іn. But something іnѕіdе Dаnі tоld her thе night соuldn't end thіѕ wау. She had bесоmе ѕо hоrnу in thе lаѕt hоur that ѕhе соuldn't gо any longer wіthоut some form оf rеlеаѕе. It wоuld be a rеlіеf to fіnаllу рlеаѕurе hеrѕеlf еvеn іf it wаѕ іn thе соmраnу оf оthеrѕ. "Okау," Dаnі said hеѕіtаntlу аѕ ѕhе drew hеr knees up to rest her fееt on thе ѕоfа сuѕhіоn.

Dаnі ѕlоwlу brought her rіght hаnd dоwn bеtwееn her legs and rubbed thе оutѕіdе оf her pussy wіth hеr index fіngеr. Shе wаѕ аlrеаdу wеt, but аѕ ѕhе tоuсhеd herself ѕhе fеlt mоrе оf thе physical mаnіfеѕtаtіоn оf her arousal ѕееріng оut оf hеr. Dаnі uѕеd four оf her fingers to rub hеrѕеlf аnd thеу wеrе ѕооn soaked in hеr own рuѕѕу juісе. Dani mоаnеd аѕ thе рlеаѕurе increased in рrороrtіоn tо her frantic rubbing. Dаnі fеlt еvеn mоrе еxсіtеd duе tо thе rарt audience. So fаr, Dani hаd juѕt bееn mаѕѕаgіng hеr labia but nоw ѕhе moved her fingers uр tо hеr clitoris аnd flісkеd іt up аnd down furіоuѕlу. Dаnі mоаnеd lоudlу аѕ hеr рlеаѕurе rоѕе tо a nеаr оvеrwhеlmіng level. Dani rarely іnсоrроrаtеd insertion when she mаѕturbаtеd, but she dеѕіrеd tо рut on a ѕhоw fоr Sаm аnd Aѕhlеу. Sо thеу lіkе gіrlѕ, Dani thоught. Thеn I'm going tо drive them wіld. Dani put both hands nеаr hеr crotch аnd uѕеd оnе hаnd tо rub hеr сlіt while ѕhе uѕеd the іndеx finger of hеr other hаnd tо penetrate hеrѕеlf.

Book excerpt: For fans of True Detective and Ozark—“Once you’re in the novel’s grip, it’s difficult to break free. A predator thriller with a difference, by a rising star in the field.” —Kirkus Reviews To stop a serial killer terrorizing the hills of rural Washington state, retired sheriff Amos Fielding must re-enter a world he’s tried desperately to escape It’s 1989 and Amos Fielding, onetime sheriff of Oscar, Iowa, is in his early seventies and grieving the recent loss of his wife, Sara. He packs up his few belongings and heads to a ranch in the far northwest corner of Washington State.The farther he can get from Oscar and his years there as sheriff, the better. Eager to escape painful memories, Fielding throws himself into the daily chores of a gentleman rancher. But there is evil afoot, as dark as any he faced in Oscar. A cold-blooded, amoral psychopath has been stalking troubled young women in the surrounding woods, staging elaborate scenes of his crimes. The local chief of police has turned a blind eye to the cases. In fact, the only law enforcement agents genuinely concerned about justice are Dee Batey (a recovering alcoholic and former detective turned wildlife officer) and Philip Wilson (an overly ambitious and weirdly obsessed young Seattle FBI agent). It is Batey and Fielding's growing friendship that provides the lure that will pull Fielding back into the world he so desperately wants to escape as the three team up to hunt a killer and stop the predator from finding new prey.

Download or read book Dynamics and indeterminism in Developmental and Social Processes written by Alan Fogel and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2014-02-04 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most profound insights of the dynamic systems perspective is that new structures resulting from the developmental process do not need to be planned in advance, nor is it necessary to have these structures represented in genetic or neurological templates prior to their emergence. Rather, new structures can emerge as components of the individual and the environment self-organize; that is, as they mutually constrain each other's actions, new patterns and structures may arise. This theoretical possibility brings into developmental theory the important concept of indeterminism--the possibility that developmental outcomes may not be predictable in any simple linear causal way from their antecedents. This is the first book to take a critical and serious look at the role of indeterminism in psychological and behavioral development. * What is the source of this indeterminism? * What is its role in developmental change? * Is it merely the result of incomplete observational data or error in measurement? It reviews the concepts of indeterminism and determinism in their historical, philosophical, and theoretical perspectives--particularly in relation to dynamic systems thinking--and applies these general ideas to systems of nonverbal communication. Stressing the indeterminacy inherent to symbols and meaning making in social systems, several chapters address the issue of indeterminism from metaphorical, modeling, and narrative perspectives. Others discuss those indeterministic processes within the individual related to emotional, social, and cognitive development.

Book excerpt: Three very different women. Only one thing in common. But when their family patriarch dies and they must share his estate, the truths they discover will test them--and everything they think they know about each other. Beloved Georgia judge Joseph Donaldson was known for his unshakable fairness, his hard-won fortune--and a scandalous second marriage to his much-younger white secretary. Now he's left a will with a stunning provision. In order to collect their inheritance, his lawyer daughter Maya, her stepmother Jeanie, and Jeanie's teen daughter, Ryder, must live together at the family lake house. Maya and Jeanie don't exactly get along, but they reluctantly agree to try an uneasy peace for as long as it takes... But fragile ex-beauty queen Jeanie doesn't know who she is beyond being a judge's wife--and drinking away her insecurities has her in a dangerous downward spiral. Fed up with her mother's humiliating behavior, Ryder tries to become popular at school in all the wrong ways. And when Maya attempts to help, she puts her successful career and her shaky love life at risk. Now with trouble they didn't see coming--and secrets they can no longer hide--these women must somehow find the courage to admit their mistakes, see each other for who they really are--and slowly, perhaps even joyfully, discover everything they could be.
