Book Description
Can one moment in life define who you are? Can this same brief second influence what others will become? How strong are the locked doors to our past and how long can they contain the monsters that pound against them, raging to get out? A moment in time binds four high school seniors and a guidance counselor. The lives of a stoner, loser, bitch, social butterfly, and an alcoholic become entwined because of an incident that occurred six years in the past. Two seventh graders enter a stairwell and five lives are changed forever. Six years later, festering hate, adolescent perception, incompetent parents, and a handgun bring a dramatic conclusion to this one moment in time. What the Mirror Sees is a gritty look at the life of high school teens and the harsh realities they deal with in what is often perceived as a cold and uncaring world. T.A. HALUKENNAH turned down several Ivy League scholarships to backpack across the United States at the age of 18. During the two years and eight months he was on the road, in 38 different states, he supported himself by working minimum-wage jobs. It was here that he encountered the backbone of America's economy, teenagers and illegal aliens. Ever since this trip Halukennah has maintained an affinity toward the youth of our country. His writing reflects the struggles of adolescence and the resiliency of children. T.A. Halukennah has no place he calls home and rarely stays in one place for an extended period of time. His last known residence was somewhere in upstate New York.

Book Description
Discover the power of mirror meditation to help you awaken self-compassion, increase self-awareness, and gain the confidence needed to thrive. Seeing ourselves clearly isn’t always easy—especially in the age of social media. Technology has eroded our capacity for authentic self-reflection. As a result, we feel more anxious and depressed, have shorter attention spans, and have become more estranged from ourselves and each other. We’ve also become more critical of our physical appearance, and this self-criticism can damage our confidence and stand in the way of our happiness. In order to heal, we must come face to face with our true selves—not the images of ourselves that we alter and post online. If you're ready for self-reflection that has nothing to do with selfies, this book will reveal the way. Based in cutting-edge neuroscience, Mirror Meditation offers mindful practices for increasing your self-awareness, managing stress and emotions, developing self-compassion, and increasing your confidence and personal presence. Using the three principles of mindfulness meditation—attention to the present moment, open awareness, and kind intention toward oneself—you’ll realize just how much your self-criticisms are affecting you. Then you’ll have a choice—and a practice—to treat yourself with more self-acceptance. Self-awareness can help you break free from both your inner critic and the external world that stokes the fears and anxieties that we are never good enough, never have enough, and are never safe enough. The simple self-mirroring technique in this unique guide isn’t grounded in technology—just a commitment to be present with yourself.

Book Description
The groundbreaking National Book Award Finalist and Michael L. Printz Honor Book with more than 3.5 million copies sold, Speak is a bestselling modern classic about consent, healing, and finding your voice. "Speak up for yourself—we want to know what you have to say." From the first moment of her freshman year at Merryweather High, Melinda knows this is a big lie, part of the nonsense of high school. She is friendless, an outcast, because she busted an end-of-summer party by calling the cops. Now nobody will talk to her, let alone listen to her. As time passes, Melinda becomes increasingly isolated and practically stops talking altogether. Only her art class offers any solace, and it is through her work on an art project that she is finally able to face what really happened at that terrible party: she was raped by an upperclassman, a guy who still attends Merryweather and is still a threat to her. Her healing process has just begun when she has another violent encounter with him. But this time Melinda fights back—and refuses to be silent. From Astrid Lindgren Memorial Award laureate Laurie Halse Anderson comes the extraordinary landmark novel that has spoken to millions of readers. Powerful and utterly unforgettable, Speak has been translated into 35 languages, was the basis for the major motion picture starring Kristen Stewart, and is now a stunning graphic novel adapted by Laurie Halse Anderson herself, with artwork from Eisner-Award winner Emily Carroll.
