Book Description
15-year-old Zahra has lived in England most of her life, but she is haunted by memories of her early childhood in Africa: the warm sun, the loud gunfire, and happy days playing with her older sister before "the visitors" came. It is hard for Zahra to make sense of everything that happened, and the terrible events are impossible to talk about, but when three familiar women arrive unexpectedly for tea, Zahra realises that the dangers of the past could still destroy her. What Was Never Said is the powerful story of a girl navigating the demands of two very different and conflicting worlds; a tale of surviving loss and overcoming fears.

*** From the acclaimed author of The Flight of Cornelia Blackwood *** Everyone can change their life. But what happens when it hides a secret that changes everything? In 1964, Maggie wakes to find herself in a mental asylum, with no idea who she is or how she got there. Remnants of memories swirl in her mind - a familiar song, a storm, a moment of violence. Slowly, she begins to piece together the past and the events which brought her to this point. In the present day, Jonathan is grieving after the loss of his father. A cold, distant man, he was not easy to love, but at least while he lived there was hope for reconciliation. Then a detective turns up on Jonathan's doorstep to question him about crimes he believes Jonathan's father may have committed long ago... As the two stories interweave, the devastating truth long kept hidden must emerge, and both Maggie and Jonathan are forced to come to terms with the consequences of the shocking and tragic events of over forty years ago.

Book Description
"If one chooses to ''swim, upstream'' and claim for oneself how one will encounter life, then one is not a victim. One is there own person. And the possibilities for joy, love and freedom in this life can be touched. " (Page ???, I do not know the numbering. This is a quote found in the meditation Swimming Upstream and the Realness of Faith.) John Ruiz has written a set of meditations on scripture passages that spell out a deep faith. He invites the reader to enter into the stories he tells, and to recognize the action of God present in a life attuned to that Presence. He points to "the living presence of God who is continually Breathing God''s spirit and life into God''s word." This results in practical lessons for daily living that can be drawn from these bible verses. Jody Crowley Beers Spiritual Coordinator at the Monastery of Saint Benedict Center in Madison, Wisconsin.

Book Description
These 55 poems have captured the most significant and tragic aspects of my life from the age of 13. I am still unable to coherently express such events and emotions in simple words, in a simple explanation. My only outlet for these demons have taken the form of metaphors that I have crafted with the art of literature. I pray with all my heart that someone with the same heartache will pick up this book, open the pages, and read, and not feel as alone as they did moments before, to no longer feel how I used to feel.

Book Description
"God helps those who help themselves." - The Bible? "Preach the gospel always; when necessary, use words." - St. Francis of Assisi? Sayings like these are such a part of modern pious tradition that we assume they come from the Bible, the mouths of saints, or the pens of famous Christian writers. In What the Saints Never Said, apologist Trent Horn takes over forty of these well-known but dubious sayings and attempts to track them to their true source. In so doing he finds some that are close to what was really said, many that were mis-attributed or twisted beyond their original meaning, and more than a few that were just plain made up! Trent Horn sets the record straight,

Book Description
Two teens meet after tragedy and learn about love, loss, and letting go Naima Rodriguez doesn’t want your patronizing sympathy as she grieves her father, her hero—a fallen Marine. She’ll hate you forever if you ask her to open up and remember him “as he was,” though that’s all her loving family wants her to do in order to manage her complex OCD and GAD. She’d rather everyone back the-eff off while she separates her Lucky Charms marshmallows into six, always six, Ziploc bags, while she avoids friends and people and living the life her father so desperately wanted for her. Dew respectfully requests a little more time to process the sudden loss of his parents. It's causing an avalanche of secret anxieties, so he counts on his trusty voice recorder to convey the things he can’t otherwise say aloud. He could really use a friend to navigate a life swimming with pain and loss and all the lovely moments in between. And then he meets Naima and everything’s changed—just not in the way he, or she, expects. Candace Ganger's Six Goodbyes We Never Said is no love story. If you ask Naima, it’s not even a like story. But it is a story about love and fear and how sometimes you need a little help to be brave enough to say goodbye.
