Book Description
I applaud your courage for taking a stand against disrespect and abuse. It's not an easy thing to do because more often than not you stand alone. The yes-person and cowards are not going to support you. They are comfortable with the existing conditions or in alignment themselves with the dysfunction and your truth will rock the reality they have chosen to live in. Whether it's a parent, sibling, friend, or family member, do not allow a destructive person to drag you down a hole for the rest of your life. My name is Summer Reign, and I'm a survivor of abuse from a toxic mother. I don't have a degree on this topic, rather firsthand experience. I will share what I learned during years of professional counseling and my personal experiences with abuse. If you believe you're a survivor of toxic parenting, I hope this book will provide answers. Children of a toxic parent or parents can live happy and healthy lives, but the first step to healing is recognition.

Book Description
As one evolves with life, there are primarily two ways a person can think: how precious this life is or this life was never about me! Beyond our illusions, the Buddhist, Advaita, and modern cutting-edge physics state that the observer is real, not the individual entity or the universe. Rather, awareness and infinite consciousness is what really exists, beyond the mirage of forms that come and go that make up our living experience (through our physical senses). The book looks at the Self or No-Self (Non-Self), the universe, contentment, happiness and sadness etc., concluding there is no perfect life or right belief system but it’s how we perceive ‘reality’ and subsequently wire our consciousness. It argues that perception is reality and we live in plural realities. How we perceive this dance of light and energy is up to our awareness, leading to a blissful or sorrowful life. The book digs into Advaita Vedanta, Physics, Philosophy, Buddhism, and Neuroscience to validate this central thesis. The basic message in this whole book is to CELEBRATE LIFE, every day should be a CELEBRATION, and think LIGHTLY OF YOURSELF AS Socrates beautifully commented I’M THE WISEST MAN ON EARTH AND I KNOW ONE THING THAT I KNOW NOTHING! – AMEN

Book Description
Corporate worker-bee Kez has finally achieved her lifelong dream of living in Europe, having put behind her at last a myriad of family problems: a narcissistic mother; a chronically ill father; a schizophrenic brother and the dark, intrusive memories of a kitten-murdering grandmother. But life has no intention of letting her sit back and take a breath – oh, no – because, once again, her family needs her. She flies six thousand miles back to Brazil with her manager, Max, who witnessed Kez having a panic attack upon hearing the news that her father was dying. As the vigil in the hospital stretches into the night, she tells Max her family stories leading up to the day her mother destroyed their relationship. During the deathwatch, Kez tells Max about her humble family origins in Pernambuco and her last assignment working abroad as a Tourist Consultant in the hot sands of Dubai. She exposes in great detail the intricate balance of power between her nosy-but-well-meaning relatives, her narcissistic mother, her sick father, her schizophrenic brother and how in the end she is forced to choose between her dreams of a future in Europe or the nightmare of her mother’s endless online scams. From the cotton plantations in Pernambuco and the terra roxa farms at the edge of the Paranapanema river, to the corporate offices of Sao Paulo and Frankfurt, with a brief stopover on the South Bank of London, KINTSUGI explores Kez’s rich family history up until the moment her family implodes.

Book Description
BOOKER PRIZE WINNER • NATIONAL BESTSELLER • A novel that follows a middle-aged man as he contends with a past he never much thought about—until his closest childhood friends return with a vengeance: one of them from the grave, another maddeningly present. A novel so compelling that it begs to be read in a single setting, The Sense of an Ending has the psychological and emotional depth and sophistication of Henry James at his best, and is a stunning achievement in Julian Barnes's oeuvre. Tony Webster thought he left his past behind as he built a life for himself, and his career has provided him with a secure retirement and an amicable relationship with his ex-wife and daughter, who now has a family of her own. But when he is presented with a mysterious legacy, he is forced to revise his estimation of his own nature and place in the world.

A page-turning novel that is also an exploration of the great philosophical concepts of Western thought, Jostein Gaarder's Sophie's World has fired the imagination of readers all over the world, with more than twenty million copies in print. One day fourteen-year-old Sophie Amundsen comes home from school to find in her mailbox two notes, with one question on each: "Who are you?" and "Where does the world come from?" From that irresistible beginning, Sophie becomes obsessed with questions that take her far beyond what she knows of her Norwegian village. Through those letters, she enrolls in a kind of correspondence course, covering Socrates to Sartre, with a mysterious philosopher, while receiving letters addressed to another girl. Who is Hilde? And why does her mail keep turning up? To unravel this riddle, Sophie must use the philosophy she is learning—but the truth turns out to be far more complicated than she could have imagined.
