Book Description
Run Away Words is a glowing debut, a suggestive leap into the plight of mainstream America, with all of its lost and pleading souls yearning for something not yet understood. Barnes gives a private, soulful portrayal of a man's life in fast-paced surrender; he moves succinctly from despair and uncertainty to true hunger and devotion for "other," all of which culminates beautifully in his return to praise for both God and the creative Word. It's the paradox of an agonizing, yet dutiful, surrender that infuses this quick turn of the page with something just a little bit more. Barnes' first foray into poetry is a welcome one...."

"MAY IS GOING FROM STRENGTH TO STRENGTH... A WONDERFUL EXHIBITION OF JUST HOW GOOD MAY CAN BE." --The Daily Mail "Five of us had run away that fateful night just over a month before. Only three of us would be going home. And nothing, nothing would ever be the same again." Glasgow, 1965. Headstrong teenager Jack Mackay has just one destination on his mind--London--and successfully convinces his four friends, and fellow bandmates, to join him in abandoning their homes to pursue a goal of musical stardom. Glasgow, 2015. Jack Mackay, heavy-hearted sixty-seven-year-old is still haunted by what might have been. His recollections of the terrible events that befell him and his friends some fifty years earlier, and how he did not act when it mattered most is a memory he has tried to escape his entire adult life. London, 2015. A man lies dead in a one-room flat. His killer looks on, remorseless. What started with five teenagers following a dream five decades before has been transformed over the intervening decades into a waking nightmare that might just consume them all.

Runaway
Author: Wendelin Van Draanen
Publisher: Ember
ISBN: 0307975975
Category : Young Adult Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 273
Book Description
This diary of a runaway girl and her search for a home celebrates hope, resilience, and happy endings as only Wendelin Van Draanen, the author of Flipped and other acclaimed novels, can. Holly has run away before, but this time she actually gets away—and what at first felt like an escape soon becomes a daily struggle for survival. She is smart and resourceful, and she manages to make it across the country on her own. But how long can this go on? It’s getting harder to avoid the truth—Holly is now homeless. Runaway is a remarkably uplifting portrait of a girl still young and stubborn and naive enough to believe there’s a better place for her in the world. “Will grab readers from the first entry.” —Kirkus Reviews “Holly’s lively self lingers in the way the best characters do. Runaway is certainly one of the best young adult books of the year.” —The Sacramento Bee

The Beginner's Guide to Running Away from Home

ISBN: 0375987843
Category : Juvenile Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 41
Book Description
What kid hasn't wanted to make their parents feel sorry for treating him badly? And how better to accomplish this than to run away? Here's a guide showing how, from what to pack (gum--then you won't have to brush your teeth) to how to survive (don't think about your cozy bed). Ultimately, though, readers will see that there really is no place like home. Like Judith Viorst's Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day, here's a spot-on portrait of a kid who's had it. And like Maurice Sendak's Where the Wild Things Are, it's also a journey inside a creative kid's imagination: that special place where parents aren't allowed without permission.

A Make-Believe Marriage Cassie Phillips wasn't really married to Will Tolliver, no matter what he told people. Not that being the wife of a man as kind and thoughtful as Will wouldn't be a dream come true. But even Will would abandon her once he learned what she was running from. Cassie Phillips was the kind of girl you took home to mother, and Will was determined to do just that. But he'd never expected that in order to protect her he'd have to tell a lie that could get them both in a lot of trouble. Especially if he couldn't convince Cassie that marrying him for real was the right thing to do.
