Book Description
Dear Lily, You don’t know it yet, but life is full of complications you could never imagine. The impossible, even the devastatingly so, can throw you off course and batter your heart along the way. I know, that doesn’t sound like the start of the best kind of letter a mother could write to her daughter, but there’s a bright side too. There are moments, choices, and course-corrections to get you back on track to the life you were meant to have. You are living proof of that. I won’t hold back. Some of what you’ll read might be hard to hear considering it’s about your mom and dad, but it will all be worth it if you learn from our mistakes. I like to think we went wrong so that you won’t have to one day. Besides, as you know, it all worked out in the end. Sasha I knew Kade was my one before he ever even realized I was a girl. He was mine for a moment, and then fate interceded to take him away from me… Kade Family drama took me away from her. A lie from a friend kept me away. Seeing her again, months later, with a swollen belly as I had my arms wrapped around another woman, that would stain my heart forever. Second chances don’t come often, but there was no way I couldn’t try. Too much was at stake. This is a 91,000+ word, new adult, college, second chance, secret baby, contemporary romance!

It Ends with Us
Author: Colleen Hoover
Publisher: Pocket Books
ISBN: 1982143657
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 448
Book Description
In this “brave and heartbreaking novel that digs its claws into you and doesn’t let go, long after you’ve finished it” (Anna Todd, New York Times bestselling author) from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of All Your Perfects, a workaholic with a too-good-to-be-true romance can’t stop thinking about her first love. Lily hasn’t always had it easy, but that’s never stopped her from working hard for the life she wants. She’s come a long way from the small town where she grew up—she graduated from college, moved to Boston, and started her own business. And when she feels a spark with a gorgeous neurosurgeon named Ryle Kincaid, everything in Lily’s life seems too good to be true. Ryle is assertive, stubborn, maybe even a little arrogant. He’s also sensitive, brilliant, and has a total soft spot for Lily. And the way he looks in scrubs certainly doesn’t hurt. Lily can’t get him out of her head. But Ryle’s complete aversion to relationships is disturbing. Even as Lily finds herself becoming the exception to his “no dating” rule, she can’t help but wonder what made him that way in the first place. As questions about her new relationship overwhelm her, so do thoughts of Atlas Corrigan—her first love and a link to the past she left behind. He was her kindred spirit, her protector. When Atlas suddenly reappears, everything Lily has built with Ryle is threatened. An honest, evocative, and tender novel, It Ends with Us is “a glorious and touching read, a forever keeper. The kind of book that gets handed down” (USA TODAY).

The Glass Bathyscaphe

Languages : en
Pages : 267
Book Description
A narrative history of glass from discovery, through antiquity, the Enlightenment, the Scientific and Industrial Revolutions to the present. It charts the history of the technology but also the enabling effects of glass on such aspects of civilization as experimental science, perspective, astronomy, zoology and all manner of scientific instrumentation - plus the central role of window-glass technology in making the colder north habitable. The authors show how the divergence in glass technology between west and east (China and Japan) explains differential aspects of E/W development. The last chapter develops the intriguing thesis that glass is one of the principal factors in the development of western civilization.
