Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two men discover that there’s a fine line between irritating and irresistible in this charming romance from the author of Where Do I Start? Jeffrey Bornic is getting over his ex. Really. So what if the rising-star attorney is angrily sleeping his way through most of Manhattan’s male population? When the time is right, the perfect partner will show up. And Jeffrey knows exactly what he’ll be like: an ambitious, polished professional who’ll make the ideal other half of a fabulous power couple. Theo McPherson is definitely not that guy. He’s a short, fiery redhead who works in the arts and wears sneakers held together with duct tape. If it weren’t for the fact that Theo is his best friend’s little (literally) brother, Jeff would be crossing the street to avoid him. Theo, meanwhile, has nothing but contempt for guys in suits, and seems to have deliberately set out to make Jeff’s life miserable, all while grinning at him in that exasperating—some might say irresistible—way that he has. At least it’s hard for Jeff to keep moping over his ex when he’s butting heads with Theo—and suddenly wondering if the last guy he’d ever fall for might be exactly that . . .

Book excerpt: Howard is a lonely, geeky tenth-grader dealing with a father who's had some kind of breakdown, a flaky, overprotective mother and frightening waking dreams. Then he meets Cate, a strange girl who convinces him that he is an Adept, which means he can communicate through dreams with other dimensions and, under certain circumstances, travel between them. Howard discovers that our world is only one of several dimensions swirling in time and space, and that one of the others, peopled by unimaginably powerful monsters, is approaching Earth for the first time in millennia. The last time the dimensions coincided, our world was saved by the breaking of a powerful golden mask in the Chinese city of Sanxingdui. Together, Howard and Cate travel through time and space, meeting other Adepts and avoiding lurking monsters, in a quest to find the three fragments of the golden mask and prevent it from falling into the wrong hands.

Download or read book The Voice of Witness Reader written by Voice of Witness and published by Haymarket Books. This book was released on 2023-03-28 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since 2005, Voice of Witness has illuminated contemporary human rights crises through its oral history book series. Founded by Dave Eggers, Lola Vollen, and Mimi Lok, Voice of Witness amplifies the voices of people impacted by—and fighting against—injustice. Voice of Witness’s work is driven by the transformative power of the story, and by a strong belief that social justice cannot be achieved without deep listening and learning from those marginalized by systems of oppression. This selection of narratives from the organization’s first ten years includes stories from occupied Palestine, Sudan, Chicago public housing, and the US carceral system, among many others. Together, they form an astonishing record of human rights issues in the early twenty-first century; a testament to the strength of the human spirit in the face of incredible odds; and an opportunity to better understand the world we live in through connection and a participatory vision of history.

When Noah Collington boards an oilrig to reconfigure the computers and install a security program for Conquest Oil Company he makes an unexpected discovery. Alissa Lockhart is on board the oilrig as well. Now all he has to do is convince her to return with him to his hometown, Gemini Dakota, to see his partner who happens to be her big brother. That task is easier said than done considering Alissa doesn't want anything to do with either one of them. Alissa Lockhart didn't need her brother or his partner. She was twenty-five, a successful welding specialist for Conquest Oil and she'd had enough heartache to last her a lifetime. The only problem was Noah Collington wasn't going to leave her alone until she agreed to accompany him back to Gemini Dakota. Which left her only one thing to do: lock all her secrets up and throw away the key. The heartache her brother had caused her by walking away from their family was nothing compared to the heartache her secrets could inflict on him if unlocked.
