*NOW A NETFLIX LIMITED SERIES—from producer and director Shawn Levy (Stranger Things) starring Mark Ruffalo, Hugh Laurie, and newcomer Aria Mia Loberti* Winner of the Pulitzer Prize and National Book Award finalist, the beloved instant New York Times bestseller and New York Times Book Review Top 10 Book about a blind French girl and a German boy whose paths collide in occupied France as both try to survive the devastation of World War II. Marie-Laure lives with her father in Paris near the Museum of Natural History where he works as the master of its thousands of locks. When she is six, Marie-Laure goes blind and her father builds a perfect miniature of their neighborhood so she can memorize it by touch and navigate her way home. When she is twelve, the Nazis occupy Paris, and father and daughter flee to the walled citadel of Saint-Malo, where Marie-Laure’s reclusive great uncle lives in a tall house by the sea. With them they carry what might be the museum’s most valuable and dangerous jewel. In a mining town in Germany, the orphan Werner grows up with his younger sister, enchanted by a crude radio they find. Werner becomes an expert at building and fixing these crucial new instruments, a talent that wins him a place at a brutal academy for Hitler Youth, then a special assignment to track the Resistance. More and more aware of the human cost of his intelligence, Werner travels through the heart of the war and, finally, into Saint-Malo, where his story and Marie-Laure’s converge. Doerr’s “stunning sense of physical detail and gorgeous metaphors” (San Francisco Chronicle) are dazzling. Deftly interweaving the lives of Marie-Laure and Werner, he illuminates the ways, against all odds, people try to be good to one another. Ten years in the writing, All the Light We Cannot See is a magnificent, deeply moving novel from a writer “whose sentences never fail to thrill” (Los Angeles Times).

“We Set the Dark on Fire burns bright. It will light the way for a new generation of rebels and lovers.” —NPR “Mejia pens a compelling, gripping story that mirrors real world issues of immigration and equality.” —Buzzfeed Five starred reviews!!

At the Medio School for Girls, distinguished young women are trained for one of two roles in their polarized society.

Book Description
December 2, 2004, started out like any other day for Gary Tim Collins. As a University of Toledo alumnus, Gary was looking forward to the Mid-American Conference championship game at Ford Field against the University of Miami with his friends. But he wouldn't see or remember the game. Just as he was about to sit down to enjoy the game, he was struck with seizures that landed him in Henry Ford's Intensive Care Unit in a coma for two weeks. It was the prayers of friends and loved ones that helped bring him back. This traumatic experience brought Gary closer to God, when he had previously struggled with finding his purpose and really felt God had something else in mind for him. That something else turned out to be this book, The Light That Illuminates the Flame. In this book, Gary explores common themes of Christianity, like who God is, what he does in our lives, the importance of his Word, the life of Jesus Christ, and, in turn, the way we should live our lives as his faithful followers to draw near to him. It is a thank you to the Almighty God who gave all and saved a man from losing it all. Marty Pennington Lead Pastor Mainstreet Church Walbridge, Ohio. Gary Tim Collins taught for over twenty-four years in the Toledo public school system, working with handicapped and disadvantaged high school students. He lives in Ohio and is actively involved in his church. This is his first book. This is a book that would be good for any growing Christian to read. Gary takes much of his personal life experiences and puts them into layman's terms so that all can learn and grow. As you, like all of us, struggle with life's issues, this book will certainly help you work with your own struggles as well as prepare you to help others on their journey of life. Terry R. Smith Congregational Care Pastor, Mainstreet Church
