Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Can you imagine? Someone who could look back into your past life and bring out into the open the good parts and the bad parts of your story? But to share it with the rest of the world...who would want that? How dangerous and scary is this? This was neither a rumour nor a scam; it had been proven to be true. No one really knew for sure how far back she could actually go, historically. She went by the stage name Xubia but was known worldwide as ‘The Reverse Psychic.’ Politicians, Judges, Doctors, Policemen to name but a few, were all here for safety reasons. It was common knowledge that many arrests had been made at these events. It also wasn’t set in stone that your story would come to light, yet many came for the experience, others searching for truth and justice. The five friends had waited for this moment all their lives. They sold what they had to in order to save their money just to be here at this time. £10,000 for a ticket was nothing compared to what they got in return. The friends just prayed that at some point maybe they might get lucky and their story will unfold for all to see. They finally found someone who could help them with their terrific trauma and perhaps put an end to all their suffering.

Book excerpt: “I’m personally against seeing my pictures and statues in the streets, but it’s what the people want.” — Saparmurat Niyazov, dictator of Turkmenistan Dictators may be among the worst people in history, but that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t laugh at them. In My Favourite Dictators, Chris Mikul tells the stories of eleven of the twentieth century’s most colourful and reviled human beings, including Benito Mussolini, Mao Zedong, Muammar Gaddafi, Idi Amin, Saddam Hussein and Kim Jong-il.

The big 4-0. Like eighteen and twenty-one, this is a major and meaningful milestone our lives—especially for women. Turning forty is a poignant doorway between youth and...what comes after; a crossroads to reflect on the roads taken and not, and the paths yet before you. The decade that follows is ripe for nostalgia, inspiration, wisdom, and personal growth. In this dazzling collection, fifteen writers explore this rich phase in essays that are profound, moving, and above all, brimming with joie de vivre. With a diverse array of voices—including Veronica Chambers, Meghan Daum, Kate Bolick, Taffy Brodesser-Akner, Sloane Crosley, KJ Dell’Antonia, Julie Klam, Jessica Lahey, Catherine Newman, Sujean Rim, Jena Schwartz, Sophfronia Scott, Allison Winn Scotch, Lee Woodruff, and Jill Kargman—On Being 40(ish) offers a range of universal themes—friendship, independence, sex, beauty, aging, wisdom, and the passage of time. On Being 40(ish) reflects the hopes, fears, challenges, and opportunities of a generation. Beautifully designed, this is “a must read for anyone 40ish or beyond...Like a pep talk from your big sister, favorite cousin, and wise best friend” (Joanna Goddard, Cup of Jo).
