Book Description
A #1 Bestseller in Australia and Book Sense 76 Pick Life is pretty complicated for Elizabeth Clarry. Her best friend Celia keeps disappearing, her absent father suddenly reappears, and her communication with her mother consists entirely of wacky notes left on the fridge. On top of everything else, because her English teacher wants to rekindle the "Joy of the Envelope," a Complete and Utter Stranger knows more about Elizabeth than anyone else. But Elizabeth is on the verge of some major changes. She may lose her best friend, find a wonderful new friend, kiss the sexiest guy alive, and run in a marathon. So much can happen in the time it takes to write a letter... A #1 bestseller in Australia, this fabulous debut is a funny, touching, revealing story written entirely in the form of letters, messages, postcards—and bizarre missives from imaginary organizations like The Cold Hard Truth Association.

Jaclyn Moriarty's hilariously candid novel shows that the roller coaster ride of being a teenager is every bit as fun as we remember—and every bit as harrowing.

Book Description
By the year 2000 more than 350 Internet agencies were plying the email-order marriage trade, and the business of matching up mostly Western men with women from Asia, Eastern Europe, and Latin America had become an example of globalization writ large. This provocative work opens a window onto the complex motivations and experiences of the people behind the stereotypes and misconceptions that have exploded along with the practice of transnational courtship and marriage. Combining extensive Internet ethnography and face-to-face fieldwork, Romance on a Global Stage looks at the intimate realities of Filipinas, Chinese women, and U.S. men corresponding in hopes of finding a suitable marriage partner. Through the experiences of those engaged in pen pal relationships—their stories of love, romance, migration, and long-distance dating—this book conveys the richness and dignity of women's and men's choices without reducing these correspondents to calculating opportunists or naive romantics. Attentive to the structural, cultural, and personal factors that prompt women and men to seek marriage partners abroad, Romance on a Global Stage questions the dichotomies so frequently drawn between structure and agency, and between global and local levels of analysis.

Book Description
Crys By: Dr. Marybeth Ames Not many tweens survive the streets, but Crys Servios did. After running away from home at the tender age of 11 to escape her psychologically abusive father, Crys has not only survived—she’s thriving. Now an accomplished and renowned artist, Chrys hides her former life from the media by embracing a pack of exorbitant prevarications. Though the theories they tell hardly compare to the truth of her origins, even the most diligent researchers are unable to ferret out her genuine history . . . Or so she thought. When an unclaimed inheritance from her previous life collides with a job opportunity in her old hometown and someone who must know her secret, she finds her life in jeopardy and must protect her secret at all costs. Even if that means separating from the ones she loves.

Book Description
God is on the move - taking the Good News of Jesus Christ to a group of people who desperately need Him. Prison is a mission field that is ripe for harvest and too often forgotten. God's Word tells us to visit the prisoner; some of us do that through letters of hope. In this book, you or your church will find everything you need to know about being a Christian pen pal to prisoners. You will read touching stories like the one Kathi tells of her pen pal who told her that he "slept on a bed of prayers (our letters under his mattress) and that's what got him through prison life". CPP outreach matches around 100 inmates a month with a volunteer pen pal, still there are about two thousand waiting and praying, over a year in most cases, to hear from someone. Learn how you can minister to someone in need of a Christian mentor, and make a difference for our Father's Kingdom.

“If you couldn’t put down The First Wives Club, add Pen Pals to your reading list…Olivia Goldsmith’s latest twist on love and revenge…left us smiling.”—Good Housekeeping This was not supposed to happen. Wall Street wiz Jennifer Spencer took the rap for her powerful boss on insider trading charges—barely questioning his assurances that she’d never actually be convicted. Now she’s exchanged her Armani suit for an orange jumpsuit, and she’s settling in at the Jennings Correctional Facility for Women. And her well-connected lawyer, who also happens to be her fiancé, has taken her three-carat diamond ring back—for “safekeeping.” Things look grim. But after a rocky start, Jennifer finds herself making friends with Movita, who works in the warden’s office, and getting to know her fellow inmates Suki, Cher, and Theresa. Then Movita discovers that as gloomy and run-down as Jennings may be, it might soon get worse—because a profit-minded private company is angling behind the scenes to take it over. If there’s anyone who knows about bad deals, it’s Jennifer Spencer. And with Movita’s street smarts, Jennifer’s Wall Street smarts, and Cher’s talent for larceny, they’re about to make the investment of a lifetime....

Book Description
The United States is once again in the midst of a peak period of immigration. By 2005, more than 35 million legal and illegal migrants were present in the United States. At different rates and with differing degrees of difficulty, a great many will be incorporated into American society and culture. Leading immigration experts in history, sociology, anthropology, economics, and political science here offer multiethnic and multidisciplinary perspectives on the challenges confronting immigrants adapting to a new society. How will these recent arrivals become Americans? Does the journey to the U.S. demand abandoning the past? How is the United States changing even as it requires change from those who come here? Broad thematic essays are coupled with case studies and concluding essays analyzing contemporary issues facing Muslim newcomers in the wake of 9/11. Together, they offer a vibrant portrait of America&#’s new populations today. Contributors: Anny Bakalian, Elliott Barkan, Mehdi Bozorgmehr, Caroline Brettell, Barry R. Chiswick, Hasia Diner, Roland L. Guyotte, Gary Gerstle, David W. Haines, Alan M. Kraut, Xiyuan Li, Timothy J. Meagher, Paul Miller, Barbara M. Posadas, Paul Spickard, Roger Waldinger, Karen A.
