Book Description
“Say It Isn't So” is a hilarious and romantic novel with lots of drama. Walter T. Owens Sir, a well-known Judge and Roberta Owens a well-known pastor lives in Atlanta GA. They have seven siblings that are all grown and are living on their own. Life was simply beautiful. That is until all kinds of skeletons came rolling out when a very bold wife showed up on the parent's doorstep. All the wife mainly wanted to do was to lock eyes with the gold-digger that was robbing her husband blind. This novel is filled with laughter and romance as the Owens clan fines themselves in one hot mess and a world of pure unadulterated drama. It will have you in stitches, tears and perhaps an amen or two. Although we may fine a little bit of the Owens drama in our own lives, the author brings it all together in this one family. You may fine yourselves saying; what, naw, hush your mouth, say it isn't so.

Pages : 296
Book Description
What would you do for a second chance? When my itch for adventure brought me to Sin City, I never expected to fall in love and get married. But they say what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas, so I shouldn’t have been surprised when my new wife disappeared before the ink dried on our marriage certificate. After years of searching for her, I finally gave up, only to walk into work one morning and find she was our new admin. Joss Monroe is everything I remembered—kind, funny, gorgeous as hell. But the hurt in my heart was still so strong, I wasn’t sure I could ever forgive her. Time in her presence proved my feelings for her hadn’t changed. As the truth about why she stayed away became clear, I question how fate could be so cruel. Because it wasn’t just her past that was trying to keep us apart. While I’d do anything to be with her, death was just around the corner, and that was one fight I wasn’t sure I could win.

Status Anxiety
Author: Alain De Botton
Publisher: Vintage
ISBN: 0307491331
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 322
Book Description
“There's no writer alive like de Botton” (Chicago Tribune), and now this internationally heralded author turns his attention to the insatiable human quest for status—a quest that has less to do with material comfort than love. Anyone who’s ever lost sleep over an unreturned phone call or the neighbor’s Lexus had better read Alain de Botton’s irresistibly clear-headed new book, immediately. For in its pages, a master explicator of our civilization and its discontents explores the notion that our pursuit of status is actually a pursuit of love, ranging through Western history and thought from St. Augustine to Andrew Carnegie and Machiavelli to Anthony Robbins. Whether it’s assessing the class-consciousness of Christianity or the convulsions of consumer capitalism, dueling or home-furnishing, Status Anxiety is infallibly entertaining. And when it examines the virtues of informed misanthropy, art appreciation, or walking a lobster on a leash, it is not only wise but helpful.

How We Know What Isn't So
Author: Thomas Gilovich
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1439106746
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 228
Book Description
Thomas Gilovich offers a wise and readable guide to the fallacy of the obvious in everyday life. When can we trust what we believe—that "teams and players have winning streaks," that "flattery works," or that "the more people who agree, the more likely they are to be right"—and when are such beliefs suspect? Thomas Gilovich offers a guide to the fallacy of the obvious in everyday life. Illustrating his points with examples, and supporting them with the latest research findings, he documents the cognitive, social, and motivational processes that distort our thoughts, beliefs, judgments and decisions. In a rapidly changing world, the biases and stereotypes that help us process an overload of complex information inevitably distort what we would like to believe is reality. Awareness of our propensity to make these systematic errors, Gilovich argues, is the first step to more effective analysis and action.
