Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shining Spirit has grown up. He now wants to help his fellow animals. He sees a need to help others. The need may have come because his family helped him, I tend to believe that it was in God's plan all the time. God has given him a special talent, the mind, and developing a good character to do something instead of looking and just commenting on it. Shining Spirit is more than a story character. He is anyone that is trying to make a difference and improving their life. Shining Spirit wants to show that he can really love. He is a hero, and heroes are still in this world, not just in storybooks, movies, and comics. Heroes are walking around you. Who and where can he or she be? You could be a hero yourself.

Download or read book Goodbye Rudy Kazoody written by A.A. Freda and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2016-09-21 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who is the mysterious Rudy Kazoody, and what, if anything, did he have to do with the events that occurred to a group of teenagers during one fateful summer in New York City’s Bronx neighborhood in the early 1960s? Growing up is difficult enough. But when you’re a recent immigrant arriving in a country that is going through its own coming-of-age process, fueled by rock ‘n’ roll, the Civil Rights movement, the Vietnam War, free love, the pill, LSD, and the Cold War, it’s downright confusing, and for some—lethal. With the various upheavals shaking America to its core, Joey, whose family emigrated to the Bronx from Italy’s Apennine Mountains, struggles to retain his innocent, optimistic outlook on life as he and the other young teenagers on Arthur Avenue—virtually all of whom also come from immigrant, working-class families—try to find their place in this new order. From the euphoria of first love to the despair of dashed dreams and betrayal, Joey emerges from the summer sadder but wiser in this romantic, mysterious, and nostalgic tale. Behind it all lurks the mysterious Rudy Kazoody, an enigma that Joey feels he must solve or else remain forever just outside the inner circle of life and love.

Download or read book Reading Joss Whedon written by Rhonda V. Wilcox and published by Syracuse University Press. This book was released on 2014-05-16 with total page 482 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In an age when geek chic has come to define mainstream pop culture, few writers and producers inspire more admiration and response than Joss Whedon. From Buffy the Vampire Slayer to Much Ado About Nothing, from Dr. Horrible’s Sing–Along Blog to The Avengers, the works of Whedon have been the focus of increasing academic attention. This collection of articles represents some of the best work covering a wide array of topics that clarify Whedon’s importance, including considerations of narrative and visual techniques, myth construction, symbolism, gender, heroism, and the business side of television. The editors argue that Whedon’s work is of both social and aesthetic significance; that he creates “canonical television.” He is a master of his artistic medium and has managed this success on broadcast networks rather than on cable. From the focus on a single episode to the exploration of an entire season, from the discussion of a particular narrative technique to a recounting of the history of Whedon studies, this collection will both entertain and educate those exploring Whedon scholarship for the first time and those planning to teach a course on his works.

Download or read book First Valentine written by Mocha VonBee and published by Indie Ink. This book was released on 2023-02-07 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Love or Music… Which should they choose and what price do they have to pay? Tully has no memory of what happened at the ancient passage grave on the night of the full moon, but Kit was there too. She finally figures out what he chose. And decides he got it wrong. The Celtic god of love and music might have made their wishes come true, but the price is too high –– a hopeless future trapped in their deadbeat home town, unless Kit can find a way to change it. Unfortunately, there’s only one way to do that. Kit needs to seek out Aonghus again. But now she knows the risks involved, is she desperate enough to go through with it, especially when Tully doesn’t agree? What Early Readers Say... The first book left me wanting for more, I couldn’t wait to know what would come next for Kit and Tully! Safe to say, I absolutely loved it and I’m sure other readers will too. Seeing Kit and Tully’s relationship evolve over time, watching them grow and become two wonderful people made this book pretty perfect. While the first book was from Tully’s pov, this one’s from Kit’s which gave this book a refreshing new take. I loved how everything slowly fell into place for both of them and can’t wait to see the next chapter of their story! (Goodreads Reviewer) Even with her insecurities she (Kit) still pushes Tully towards his dream. This book offers more insight into the parents, and the struggles that Tully faces daily. I can’t wait to see what happens in Book 3. (Goodreads Reviewer) It was really interesting to see everything happening through Kit's eyes— I enjoyed reading about all of the sweet moments between Kit and Tully as they continue realizing how strongly they feel about each other and as they both strive to create different lives for themselves. It was great to see Spike and Felice again! As well as their ever strong friend group. This story includes: a 1990s small town Irish setting, well written three-dimensional characters, songwriting, music, Celtic Mythology, friendship, love, and conflict. This series continues to be mysterious, intriguing, and lots of fun. I highly recommend this book and series! (Goodreads Reviewer) Kit and Tully are back. They are as adorable as ever. Tully is still the greatest human ever. They go through some hard times but he is always smiling. (Goodreads Reviewer) The second book in the Kit and Tully series is just as good. This book develops Kit and Tully's relationship, following them both through the school year from the start of Kit's final year to the celebratory ball. We also watch Tully become a lead member in a new and emerging band within Dublin. Side notes include learning more about Kit's and Tully's families including Tully's mother's illness. As well as the various mysteries, primarily with Aonghus. As in book 1, I also enjoyed the romance unfolding in a time before technology which is a unique selling point for this book for young adults. I very much look forward to reading the third book of the series. (Goodreads Reviewer) First Valentine is a nice, quick, easy read if you want a hit of romance with a mix of magic. (Goodreads Reviewer) I can't wait to see where this story and relationship goes. If you're looking for a short, fast moving story with a bit of magic, and a lot of music and romance, this is a book series for you. (Goodreads Reviewer)

Download or read book Wild Ride written by Lena Pierce and published by MBK Hanson Inc.. This book was released on with total page 69 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is book 2 of the Chained Angels MC romance series! Book 3 is available everywhere now! The brat is begging me to put her in her place. My enemy’s daughter, naked in my bed. The price of stealing her is high, but the possibilities for what to do with her are endless. But once I go to war for this girl, she’s mine for good. So, strap in, baby – it’s about to be a truly savage ride. GRIZ I don’t need this right now. But like it or not, she’s here. My rival’s daughter. Kidnapped. And stashed in my bedroom as a sick joke by my rebellious right-hand man. She’s barely clothed, barely conscious… But very, very tempting. The curves I can see peeking out from the edges of her tattered clothes are stirring me to life in a way I haven’t felt in years. I have to remind myself to focus on the job at hand. Because Spike has gone too damn far this time. Stealing this girl from the Grave Robbers MC is bound to start a war. And blood in the streets is the last thing we need. I didn’t spend all these years building a biker empire just to let my drug-addled VP burn it all to the ground. But when I go to take Tanner back to the hellhole she came from… Something in my chest just won’t let me do it. Maybe it’s just lust. After all, the thought of taking the girl to bed has been haunting my dreams since the second I first laid eyes on that flawless skin. Or maybe it’s just greed. As much as I don’t want war, it always feels good to steal something precious from under the nose of your enemy. But deep down inside, I know it’s more than those things. It’s the start of something fiery, something dangerous. And this girl is about to take my heart on an unexpected ride. TANNER I woke up in a monster’s bedroom. He was standing in the doorway and staring at me. All brawny, tattooed, six-and-a-half feet of him. Those eyes undressed me. Pierced right through to my soul. And I know what he saw: His next victim. Griz isn’t the type of man to “make love.” He’s a brutal, savage beast, the kind to make me beg and plead for mercy… And then to take more just so he can watch me squirm. So why do I want him so bad? I should be trying to escape by any means necessary. But all I can think about is what he’d do if he caught me. Would he chain me? Whip me? Force me to my knees? God knows what kind of twisted fantasies are lurking behind the outlaw’s gaze. But if he’s going to claim me, I want him to claim all of me. I want him to make good on the dark promise his stare suggests every time he strips me down. If Griz wants me under control, he’d better be ready to break every shred of resistance I have left. And so I say… Bring on the chains.

Book excerpt: Love or Music… Which should they choose and what price do they have to pay? Felice, Kit’s sceptical best friend, doesn’t believe Kit and Tully woke a sleeping god and were offered a choice… Instead, she’s looking forward to the year ahead, where everyone’s wish is about to come true.

Tully is back from a UK tour, while Spike has promised to chaperone Kit around Trinity and orchestrate a brilliant social life for them all. What could possibly go wrong? But when their best-laid plans start to unravel, not even Felice can deny that the fateful choice might have consequences for them all… What Early Readers Say… Another great addition to the Kit and Tully series from Mocha. I actually liked reading from Felice’s point of view for this book. It's definitely a great nostalgia read if you grew up in the late 90s, early 00s, like I did. I can't wait to see what happens in the next book in the series, and who we follow for that one. Goodreads Reviewer Felice was one of my favorite characters in the other books and I liked that this book gave her a lot of layers. I love the nice brief chapters and Mocha VonBee’s writing style and I can't wait to see what happens next for this group of friends! Goodreads Reviewer This story provides great insight into how Felice sees herself and how she wants to be perceived by her family, friends, and other people around her. The series continues being mysterious, compelling, and lots of fun to read! With well written three-dimensional characters, 1990s Irish setting, friendship, love, secrets, art, music, and Celtic Mythology. I highly recommend this book and series! Goodreads Reviewer Really enjoyed this story and seeing what the characters have been up to. Loving this series and I think it'll be a big hit. NetGalley Reviewer Another lovely short book in this great series about love and friendship. Seeing what her (Felice’s) life is really like made it a lot easier to see why she acts the way she does in the earlier books. I still love the nice short chapters and Mocha's writing style and I can't wait to see what happens next for this group of friends! Goodreads Reviewer I loved how the novel was short enough to read in one sitting and how you get to know the characters. Mocha has done it again with another brilliantly written, easy to read novel, which I highly recommend. Goodreads Reviewer
