Book Description
A lot of books on driving are written by professional racers who assume you too want to be a professional racer. Not this book. It's written by a hobbyist who suggests you keep your day job. Besides, it's much more fun being an enthusiastic amateur than a jaded professional (just ask someone in the sex industry). This book is designed to help the average driver make the transition from commuter to safe road racer in as few pages as possible. I wrote this book because it's what I would have wanted to read when I first became interested in track driving: succinct, nerdy, practical, and occasionally diverting. It is not intended as a definitive tome or a work of art. It's more like a sandwich: convenient and nourishing.

Book Description
About the Book Russell Conrad is a very successful businessman who suffers a devastating heartbreak and has closed himself off from all relationships, including his family. Then he meets an angel named Carmella, who was sent to him to help him find love, happiness, and his family again. While on his journey, he not only finds love and happiness, but he also finds an inner feeling of gratitude and a passion for helping others who are less fortunate. The story is about the journey of how Carmella helps Russell, a billionaire, become the man he really wants to be. Carmella assists him in meeting Diana, who works with many of the low-income people in the city. Russell gets introduced to her world and meets a young boy in a wheelchair whom he becomes very fond of. He has cut his own family out of his life for eight years now. Will they forgive him, and will he be able to reestablish those relationships? Will Russell find happiness, love, and family again? About the Author Christine Roy currently lives in Wisconsin with her fiancé and writing partner, Andrew Tessari. A Gift from an Angel was inspired by an idea from Drew, who collaborated with Roy on parts of the story. Christine is the mother of four grown boys and has four grandchildren. She loves spending time with her family, along with her loving and loyal golden retriever. She worked as a Psychiatric Registered Nurse for seventeen years before leaving the field in order to start writing full-time. In her free time, she enjoys doing crafts of every kind. One of Roy’s sons was born with Spina Bifida and was paralyzed from the waist down. This led to the family’s involvement in adaptive wheelchair sports. Over the years, Christine developed a passion for helping other kids have the life-changing experience that wheelchair sports can bring to their lives. For this reason, she created the Trey Roy Foundation, which raises money to help purchase adaptive sports equipment for kids and families that may not be able to afford it and to also send these kids to sports camps in the summer. A portion of all of the proceeds from her book sales will go to her foundation. For more information about the foundation please visit www.tessarigroup.com and click on Trey Roy Foundation.

Book Description
A compassionate, shame-free guide for your darkest days “A one-of-a-kind book . . . to read for yourself or give to a struggling friend or loved one without the fear that depression and suicidal thoughts will be minimized, medicalized or over-spiritualized.”—Kay Warren, cofounder of Saddleback Church What happens when loving Jesus doesn’t cure you of depression, anxiety, or suicidal thoughts? You might be crushed by shame over your mental illness, only to be told by well-meaning Christians to “choose joy” and “pray more.” So you beg God to take away the pain, but nothing eases the ache inside. As darkness lingers and color drains from your world, you’re left wondering if God has abandoned you. You just want a way out. But there’s hope. In I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die, Sarah J. Robinson offers a healthy, practical, and shame-free guide for Christians struggling with mental illness. With unflinching honesty, Sarah shares her story of battling depression and fighting to stay alive despite toxic theology that made her afraid to seek help outside the church. Pairing her own story with scriptural insights, mental health research, and simple practices, Sarah helps you reconnect with the God who is present in our deepest anguish and discover that you are worth everything it takes to get better. Beautifully written and full of hard-won wisdom, I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die offers a path toward a rich, hope-filled life in Christ, even when healing doesn’t look like what you expect.

Book Description
From the creator of the popular website Ask a Manager and New York’s work-advice columnist comes a witty, practical guide to 200 difficult professional conversations—featuring all-new advice! There’s a reason Alison Green has been called “the Dear Abby of the work world.” Ten years as a workplace-advice columnist have taught her that people avoid awkward conversations in the office because they simply don’t know what to say. Thankfully, Green does—and in this incredibly helpful book, she tackles the tough discussions you may need to have during your career. You’ll learn what to say when • coworkers push their work on you—then take credit for it • you accidentally trash-talk someone in an email then hit “reply all” • you’re being micromanaged—or not being managed at all • you catch a colleague in a lie • your boss seems unhappy with your work • your cubemate’s loud speakerphone is making you homicidal • you got drunk at the holiday party Praise for Ask a Manager “A must-read for anyone who works . . . [Alison Green’s] advice boils down to the idea that you should be professional (even when others are not) and that communicating in a straightforward manner with candor and kindness will get you far, no matter where you work.”—Booklist (starred review) “The author’s friendly, warm, no-nonsense writing is a pleasure to read, and her advice can be widely applied to relationships in all areas of readers’ lives. Ideal for anyone new to the job market or new to management, or anyone hoping to improve their work experience.”—Library Journal (starred review) “I am a huge fan of Alison Green’s Ask a Manager column. This book is even better. It teaches us how to deal with many of the most vexing big and little problems in our workplaces—and to do so with grace, confidence, and a sense of humor.”—Robert Sutton, Stanford professor and author of The No Asshole Rule and The Asshole Survival Guide “Ask a Manager is the ultimate playbook for navigating the traditional workforce in a diplomatic but firm way.”—Erin Lowry, author of Broke Millennial: Stop Scraping By and Get Your Financial Life Together
