Book Description
"This book is a message from autistic people to their parents, friends, teachers, coworkers and doctors showing what life is like on the spectrum. It's also my love letter to autistic people. For too long, we have been forced to navigate a world where all the road signs are written in another language." With a reporter's eye and an insider's perspective, Eric Garcia shows what it's like to be autistic across America. Garcia began writing about autism because he was frustrated by the media's coverage of it; the myths that the disorder is caused by vaccines, the narrow portrayals of autistic people as white men working in Silicon Valley. His own life as an autistic person didn't look anything like that. He is Latino, a graduate of the University of North Carolina, and works as a journalist covering politics in Washington D.C. Garcia realized he needed to put into writing what so many autistic people have been saying for years; autism is a part of their identity, they don't need to be fixed. In We're Not Broken, Garcia uses his own life as a springboard to discuss the social and policy gaps that exist in supporting those on the spectrum. From education to healthcare, he explores how autistic people wrestle with systems that were not built with them in mind. At the same time, he shares the experiences of all types of autistic people, from those with higher support needs, to autistic people of color, to those in the LGBTQ community. In doing so, Garcia gives his community a platform to articulate their own needs, rather than having others speak for them, which has been the standard for far too long.

Book Description
In the action-packed thriller Original Sin, a powerful and secret society of religious zealots have one mission-to cleanse the world of impurity. The group hires a female assassin to seek out and viciously purify adulterous married men. Brandy's hunting ground is none other than an adult online chat room. Brandy has no patience for the liars and cheaters who sin as adulterers. After the men display their true intentions in the chat room with her, she realizes they are deserving of everything she is going to do to them. When Brandy's first victim is found in a ramshackle motel room filleted by a butcher knife with the word "sinner" crudely written in blood on his forehead, newly-promoted Chicago police detective Dallas Holden is called in to supervise the homicide investigation. As the case progresses, Dallas enters the fascinating and highly seductive realm of online chatting in order to find the killer. Danger mounts as Holden finds himself entangled in an intricate web of love, betrayal, and power that inevitably leads to a confrontation with a trusted ally and the leader of the secret religious society-a showdown that will change Dallas Holden's life forever.
