He bought them popsicles and together, they visited his 'secret garden' in the Truro woods ... Everyone thought he was just a 'great guy.'

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the hood, a woman can make a man successful—or destroy him. The black community has a wide variety of women, good and bad, and now author Mcgregor Philippe seeks to help men watch out for those who can damage them. Philippe describes five particular types of women in the hood that men should try to identify at first meeting so that they can then run for dear life: the thot, the mammy, the hood rat, the bad bitch, and the educated ratchet. He explains how these women can be disastrous to a man’s life; no matter how mean a man is, even if he is a thug, an armed robber, or an assassin, he can never be as mean as these women. Philippe’s goal is to save men from falling in traps that would lead to their downfall and to inspire women on taking a positive change in their behavior. In this self-help guide, one man provides a description of five types of toxic women that inhabit the hood and hopes to aid men in avoiding them.

Book excerpt: A Best Book of the Year: The Washington Post • Chicago Tribune • NPR • Vogue • Elle • Real Simple • InStyle • Good Housekeeping • Parade • Slate • Vox • Kirkus Reviews • Library Journal • BookPage Longlisted for the 2020 Booker Prize An Instant New York Times Bestseller A Reese's Book Club Pick "The most provocative page-turner of the year." --Entertainment Weekly "I urge you to read Such a Fun Age." --NPR A striking and surprising debut novel from an exhilarating new voice, Such a Fun Age is a page-turning and big-hearted story about race and privilege, set around a young black babysitter, her well-intentioned employer, and a surprising connection that threatens to undo them both. Alix Chamberlain is a woman who gets what she wants and has made a living, with her confidence-driven brand, showing other women how to do the same. So she is shocked when her babysitter, Emira Tucker, is confronted while watching the Chamberlains' toddler one night, walking the aisles of their local high-end supermarket. The store's security guard, seeing a young black woman out late with a white child, accuses Emira of kidnapping two-year-old Briar. A small crowd gathers, a bystander films everything, and Emira is furious and humiliated. Alix resolves to make things right. But Emira herself is aimless, broke, and wary of Alix's desire to help. At twenty-five, she is about to lose her health insurance and has no idea what to do with her life. When the video of Emira unearths someone from Alix's past, both women find themselves on a crash course that will upend everything they think they know about themselves, and each other. With empathy and piercing social commentary, Such a Fun Age explores the stickiness of transactional relationships, what it means to make someone "family," and the complicated reality of being a grown up. It is a searing debut for our times.

Kristy, Claudia, Stacey, and Mary Anne launched the club that birthed an entire generation of loyal readers. Ann M.

In We Are the Baby-Sitters Club, writers and a few visual artists from the original BSC generation will reflect on the enduring legacy of Ann M. Martin's beloved series, thirty-five years later—celebrating the BSC's profound cultural influence. Contributors include Paperback Crush author Gabrielle Moss, illustrator SiobhÁn Gallagher, and filmmaker Sue Ding, as well as New York Times bestselling author Kristen Arnett, Lambda Award–finalist Myriam Gurba, Black Girl Nerds founder Jamie Broadnax, and Paris Review contributor Frankie Thomas. One of LitHub's Most Anticipated Books of 2021, We Are the Baby-Sitters Club looks closely at how Ann M. Martin's series shaped our ideas about gender politics, friendship, fashion and beyond.

Download or read book Love is a Care Taker From a Christian Perspective written by DALVIN PRYCE and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2023-08-10 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Love is a Care -- Taker Love is a care -- Taker, author DALVIN PRYCE offers illuminating and straightforward talk to help guide people through today's biggest challenges of loving people well. Our life should be marked by loving well, by this, all men should know that we are Christ's disciples when we have love for one another. Being hospitable and walking in his grace, we should be known for loving well. Let's put love into practice! Here's a great example, a woman was left alone with her two children after the death of her husband. She was evicted from her home because of her insurmountable debt. Shortly after the property was auctioned off, she attended the auction to see who would end up owning the property, when the auction was closed, the woman burst into tears at her loss, however, as she turned in the keys the buyer gave them back to her, she said to her, I was an orphaned child and I come from a humble family. She says God has given me the means and I want to give back some of the many things God has given me; she told this crying woman; you owed me nothing; the house is yours." the woman was great full for the rest of her life for this loving action. That's a testimony of loving well, isn't it? God wants us to be out among the people of the cities being used by him. The Lord wants us to be hospitable, in other words, we must shine with the love of Christ even if we are struggling, Jesus wants us to have a welcoming hospitable heart. Jesus lives for others. He prayed for them, He identified with the need of people, their needs and suffering were His own. If Jesus has given us so much, why not give back to Him some of what we have? Let's do something for those in need even if it means depriving ourselves of somethings -------- Life without love makes no sense.
