Sparrow’s world begins to crumble around her and the only one that can stop the destruction is a soldier missing on the other side of the world. Job and Etta...soldier and mother. Sparrow’s only lifelines in a cold, cruel world. What will Sparrow do when those two abruptly snap?
My 4th book in the series "A Time Before Facebook" about childhood life in Bonners Ferry, Idaho. Excellent reading for young adults, and older adults that are still young at heart.
At the end of World War II, twenty-year-old Vera is brutally raped by an unknown assailant. From that rape is born a boy named Fred, a misfit who later becomes a talented boxer. Vera’s young son, Barnum, forms a special but bizarre relationship with his half brother, fraught with rivalry and dependence as well as love. “I should have been your father,” Fred tells Barnum, “instead of the fool who says he is.” It is Barnum, who is now a screenwriter with a fondness for lies and alcohol, who narrates his family’s saga. As he shares his family’s history, he chronicles generations of independent women and absent and flawed men whom he calls the Night Men. Among them is his father, Arnold, who bequeaths to Barnum his circus name, his excessively small stature, and a con man’s belief in the power of illusion. Filled with a galaxy of finely etched characters, this prize-winning novel is a tour de force and a literary masterpiece richly deserving of the accolades it has received.
Josie Sheehan collects failed relationships the way some women collect designer handbags. Now, at thirty-five, she has exactly one male in her life: her Labradoodle, Genghis. In fact Josie, along with the three very single women in her dog-walking group, has recently sworn off men, resigning herself to long walks in the park with her devoted, four-legged friend. All bets are off, however, when she meets Rick Rousseau, a pet-company CEO who is smart, sexy, and, best of all, head-over-heels for Josie. Even Genghis, an excellent judge of character, seems to know that Rick is the real deal. But just when Josie starts to think that she has found something more enduring than puppy love, she discovers that Rick has a complicated past—and a secret that could put the woman he loves in serious danger...

Some of Elmer's poems were getting lost so family and friends urged him to write a book to preserve them. Finally in 2007, Elmer decided to write the book. But rather than just preserve the poems, he decided to also include vignettes of memories as a child of the Great Depression, World War II, career, second courtship and life as an innkeeper. The memories reflect Elmer's strict Christian upbringing, years of rebellion, then a return to his spiritual roots. The poems sandwiched between the vignettes run from the nearly risque to spiritual. Most of the old stories set to verse are meant to amuse you and Elmer's memories may remind you of your own."
This book explores five generations of the Barnes family, concentrating on the author's father, Carl F. Barnes, whose nickname was "Carefree"-derived from the fact that for many years he went on drinking sprees that were sometimes frightening and sometimes humorous (at least in hindsight). Who else could show up with a rowboat in the driveway without any recollection of where, or why, he got it-and not have a lake to put it in? Carefree abused alcohol intermittently for thirty years, then suddenly (and unexpectedly) quit drinking for the last thirty years of his life. The author's mother's life is likewise examined: how she coped with Carefree's drinking and with the sorrow of the accidental death of her younger son. The author discusses his difficult relationship with his parents, especially his mother. For many years estranged from his sons, he explains how he and they made peace and became good friends through the efforts of their stepmother. Looking to the future, the author also includes his grandchildren. The story is told in word and picture, there being more than one hundred photos covering the span of a century. Is this an exceptional family? No, not in a political sense or social sense. It is family like many others, one that experienced laughs and tears, stresses and strains, triumphs and tragedies. The family motto was AD ASTRA PER ASPERA, "To the Stars through Hardship."
“I will be transformed into something beautiful, but at what cost?” My name is Samantha, but I prefer Sam. I’m ordinary, which is fine. It’s just I want to be ordinary somewhere else—not here in this small town, living with my too-busy-to-care parents. But ordinary ends the day Greg Papilio—a dark-haired, blue-eyed hottie—saves me from a mysterious, magical stranger who blows up my car and swears he’ll be back to finish the job. Turns out, I’m not ordinary. In fact, Greg says I’m not even human, but the member of a dying race. He says I’ll soon change and lose my free will. But that’s crazy, no one can live enslaved by their own instincts and the whims of Fate. To drive the final screw into ordinary and prove me wrong, another stranger shows up claiming to be my fated mate. He’s cute, but no thank you. I make my own decisions, and they don’t involve moving into his fancy castle or becoming the leader of his people. The truth is… I’ve fallen for Greg, and I don’t care that I’m not supposed to love him. I will fight Fate and anything else that stands in my way to be with him, even if it kills me. Keeper has magic, forbidden love and adventure, and will appeal to lovers of paranormal romance, urban fantasy, and The Mortal Instruments series. *** The Morphid Chronicles trilogy is complete—3 full-length novels of 80,000+ words each ***

To make matters worse, half of every school day is devoted to boxing. The other students think boxing is cool. Not Tessa, who cannot handle violence of any kind. But when a neighbor starts a petition to have New Directions closed down, Tessa discovers something worth fighting for, both in and out of the ring.
