Book Description
Librarys are filled with biographies of famous world leaders, well known sports figures, war heroes and retired politicians. This book, on the other hand, is a biography of an average middle class American from Minnesota who has faced a good share of the same challenges and life experiences that the millions of other middle class Americans are facing in their lives. So before you put this book back on the shelf and look for the biography of George Washington, remember this book is written about a middle class American just like youanyway, the chances are slim that you will end up President!

Book Description
Psychoanalysts must be patients for years before they can practice. The "talking cure"--the basis of all psychotherapy--is best explained from two perspectives: one patient lying on the couch and the other seated behind it. The author of this memoir was both. He candidly discusses his own analysis, describing his emotional misfires and their causes. He then uses case studies from his practice to elucidate the meaning of dreams, the causes of neuroses, depression, relationship problems and other issues that affect the lives of many.

Book Description
Read Larry Winget's posts on the Penguin Blog. Straight-talking, bestselling Pitbull of Parenting Larry Winget says "This is not a fix your kid book. It's a fix the way you parent book. You owe it to your kids to parent with a plan!" Being a parent is the toughest job in the world, especially with the increasing number of negative influences and pitfalls facing our kids today, from childhood obesity and out-of-control celebrity culture to the dangers of the internet and credit card debt. Larry Winget has never been one to shy away from tough truths, and what he says here may well be difficult for some parents to swallow: we are in the midst of a crisis with our kids. Kids today are over-indulged, over-entertained, under-achieving, and under-disciplined, with a sense of entitlement that is crippling society. And the real problem is that parents aren't paying attention to what's going on. If they were they would realize that most kids today barely read and write, except with their thumbs on their cell phones! Well-behaved, respectful kids are the exception, not the rule, and for the most part, parents are to blame. Responsible parenting is about beginning with the end in mind and parenting with a plan. But most parents have never stopped to consider what kind of adult they want to raise. They have all this fun creating a baby, but they don't have a plan for the end product. Larry's message to parents: Teach your kids to become the best adults they can be. But don't expect your kids to improve until you improve. Your Kids Are Your Own Fault covers familiar lessons and principles that have led Larry's readers to greater success with money, career, and goal setting, this time at a level where they can be taught to children. This book shows parents how to design the adult they want their kid to become and work backwards to make sure it happens. Kids don't come with an instruction manual, but finally being a parent does!

Book Description
The right girl. The wrong past. The mystery double life that catches up to her. The special gift that begs for blood... Well, that’s just great. I’ve missed the cut-off to apply for a scholarship, so my folks are freaking out about two things now. As if going to school in another city isn’t bad enough. As if me agreeing to countless asinine things to keep my parents happy isn’t grating on me already. And then I meet Gunner and it all falls apart. He’s the man of my dreams, and yet he’s the man that tears my world apart…but he doesn’t know it. And now I can never see him again. I can never hear his voice again. Most of all, I can never feel my heart beating against his ever again. It didn’t occur to me until it was too late. How right my brothers are, that is. I ran from Clarkstown to Houston to get away. The great escape. Funny how leaving home for all the wrong reasons made everything else look right. Understand that it was just too much. But what I find out in Houston is that Ava’s life pales in comparison. I thought I was doing the right thing. I thought everything would turn out okay. Until she vanishes off the campus floors and I don’t see her again…for another year. And then I find out the truth, and it changes everything forever. Can we ever get back what we had?

Book Description
"Whoever saves a life, saves a world." (ancient Jewish maxim) Alouette's Song is a New Adult romantic action-adventure featuring two couples, one heroic and one support, each having a college-aged teen plus a teen accelerated into college or beyond. Themes from government conspiracy thrillers, inspirational fiction, and coming of age, are presented through a dramatic storytelling style infused with frequent humor and irony. There are even a few small paranormal elements: a sworn protector of humanity hiding behind someone else's eyes, a 6000-year old guardian spirit keeping safe a treasure that if used selflessly could save a people... and an inherited gift infused with generation after generation of sacred use from a Jewish village in Eastern Europe. Meet Dotty and Rick. Dotty is a professional violinist with a GED. Rick is a college sophomore, having graduated high school early to pursue interests that steer him away from an abusive home. While not a typical love-at-first-sight scenario they do get thrown together in a spectacular manner. Dotty gets mugged in a subway and falls onto the tracks of a train due to arrive in a minute, getting injured in the fall. Rick is considering suicide by the very same train, but the moment he decides to do so he hears Dotty's screams. He places Dotty's need to live above his own need to die. Their collision turns into a kiss that lights up the universe for both of them. Martin and Margie have been friends from childhood. Margie has autism but is brilliant enough to hide her condition at the price of extreme loneliness. Martin is the only one who accepts her for exactly who and what she is. Margie won't reveal her hopeless love for him because of this as she knows he's gay. But Margie stumbles onto an answer for them both... having to do with the power of Time. Martin takes Margie's discovery and along with his engineering talent utilizes both to build a spacecraft. Soon both couples are together and in way over their heads within the sea of stars; only ingenuity, compassion, valor, and prayer can get them safely home.

Book Description
As a part-time hospice volunteer, Eric Lindner provides “companion care” to dying strangers. They’re chatterboxes and recluses, religious and irreligious; battered by cancer, congestive heart failure, Alzheimer’s, old age. Some cling to life amazingly. Most pass as they expected. In telling his story, Lindner reveals the thoughts, fears, and lessons of those living the ends of their lives in the care of others, having exhausted their medical options or ceased treatment for their illnesses. In each chapter, Lindner not only reveals the lessons of lives explored in their final days, but zeroes in on how working for hospice can be incredibly fulfilling. As he’s not a doctor, nurse, or professional social worker, just a volunteer lending a hand, offering a respite for other care providers, his charges often reveal more, and in more detail, to him than they do to those with whom they spend the majority of their time. They impart what they feel are life lessons as they reflect on their own lives and the prospect of their last days. Lindner captures it all in his lively storytelling. Anyone who knows or loves someone working through end of life issues, living in hospice or other end of life facilities, or dealing with terminal or chronic illnesses, will find in these pages the wisdom of those who are working through their own end of life issues, tackling life’s big questions, and boiling them down into lessons for anyone as they age or face illness. And those who may feel compelled to volunteer to serve as companions will find motivation, inspiration, and encouragement. Rather than sink under the weight of depression, pity, or sorrow, Lindner celebrates the lives of those who choose to live even as they die.
