Acclaimed YA author C. K. Kelly Martin offers a sexy, soulful story of one confused boy, two girls, and all the complications that ensue in this romantic feel-good love story that celebrates friendship, first love, first lust, and second chances. Sixteen-year-old Mason Rice is having the night of his life. He's just delivered an incredible performance in the school play, basked in celebratory afterglow vibes at the party of the year, and lost his virginity to one of his best friends—the gorgeous but previously unobtainable Kat Medina. His dreams are coming true, and the future looks golden. Unfortunately, Kat sees things very differently. Crossing the friendship line was a big mistake, and all she wants is to forget it and move on, even if that means forgetting Mason altogether. What's a guy to do? Well, if you're Mason, you hang your hopes on the first attractive twenty-three-year-old you cross paths with. At first Mason wonders if he's imagining the chemistry . . . until Colette invites him over to her apartment. Suddenly Mason's living in a whole new world. From the Hardcover edition.
Losing his virginity to the previously unattainable Kat after performing in the school play, 16-year-old Mason is crushed when Kat does not want to continue the relationship, compelling Mason to pursue an older woman. By the author of One Lonely Degree.
Global perceptions about Liberia tend to cover up its lighter side-or, at least, the very positive feelings so many people have had about living and working in the country. This book is about the professional and personal experiences of a U.S. government economist living in Liberia from 2012 to 2014. Embracing the concept of the "chasm" of culture, politics, and history between citizens of Western countries and the poorest of the poor, its central thesis holds that all of us ultimately do live in the same world. The collected stories engage the lifestyle of an expat aid worker while raging against the culture of charity, steeped in pity, that often feeds the machine of development work that makes that lifestyle a cliché. Pity is demoralizing and dehumanizing. Don't pity other people, ever.
Winner of the Hemingway Foundation / PEN Award, this debut novel is "as funny as The Office, as sad as an abandoned stapler . . . that rare comedy that feels blisteringly urgent." (TIME) No one knows us in quite the same way as the men and women who sit beside us in department meetings and crowd the office refrigerator with their labeled yogurts. Every office is a family of sorts, and the Chicago ad agency depicted in Joshua Ferris's exuberantly acclaimed first novel is family at its best and worst, coping with a business downturn in the time-honored way: through gossip, elaborate pranks, and increasingly frequent coffee breaks. With a demon's eye for the details that make life worth noticing, Joshua Ferris tells an emotionally true and funny story about survival in life's strangest environment—the one we pretend is normal five days a week.

Dario D'Angelo is one of the most promising authors destined to remain completely unknown. Despite an education and a background unrelated to writing anything - let alone books - he was able to unleash the unlikely. In the pages of this book you will find a lucid analysis of some experiences of life that can be used to understand and to some degree accept the way this whole affair will end. More importantly it will offer a point of view that could answer some of the profound questions of life, without resorting to illegal substances. If you are scared of death and you are looking for these answers, then maybe these are the pages to read. If you are just scared to death, then call 911. There is no time to read anything. Lower your expectations and you will find a mildly entertaining book, quoting the brilliant minds of all times, 5th grade science concepts, and questionable Italian humor.
Zo Lloyd rocks! Her masterful storytelling is rich with insight, humour, and pathos. She invites you to think deeply about your life, to remember what is real, and to make sure you give life everything youve got! Robert Holden, PhD, author of Happiness Now and Shift Happens! Zo writes with an inspiring blend of wit and wisdom. I found myself at times deeply moved, at others, inspired, and at multiple times I laughed out loud. I found the book to be a hugely refreshing read. Everyone should read it. Dr. David R. Hamilton, PhD, scientist, speaker, and bestselling Hay House author This biography presents a modern-day, true slice of life in a village from the perspective of a district nurse. Come and meet the characters only a village can provide. Theres Dick the retired grave digger, whose favourite place to visit is his beloved graveyard to the opinionated; prejudiced, elderly Margaret, who serves traditional afternoon tea in the drawing room whilst having her leg ulcer dressed; and ninety-year-old Kenny, whose over amorous attempts of intimacy are conducted in his rhubarb patch. There is never a dull moment in this wonderful rural oasis with the relationships and characters going on a rollercoaster of emotions as their lives mingle with ours.
