In this case, Aaron is a man from a wealthy family with a title and works for the family corporation which is a major global company. This is one of my favorite types of stories, where the main character is a psychopath/sociopath or has some sort of mental health issues where he has no morals or empathy but becomes obsessed with the lead female. What happens when a schizophrenic with voices that tell him to kill, falls in love? Does he listen to the voices or to his heart? ![]() 6/25/2023 0 Comments Factfulness hans![]() ![]() Our problem is that we don’t know what we don’t know, and even our guesses are informed by unconscious and predictable biases. It reveals the ten instincts that distort our perspective―from our tendency to divide the world into two camps (usually some version of us and them) to the way we consume media (where fear rules) to how we perceive progress (believing that most things are getting worse). ![]() So wrong that a chimpanzee choosing answers at random will consistently outguess teachers, journalists, Nobel laureates, and investment bankers.įactfulness offers a radical new explanation of why this happens. ![]() When asked simple questions about global trends― what percentage of the world’s population live in poverty why the world’s population is increasing how many girls finish school―we systematically get the answers wrong. ![]() 6/25/2023 0 Comments The keeper of time kylie lee baker![]() ![]() But he’ll help Ren only if she finds a sword lost thousands of years ago-an impossible demand. Ren’s last hope is to appeal to the god of storms and seas, who can turn the tides to send Ivy’s ship away from Japan’s shores. Then Ren receives the most troubling news yet-Reapers have been spotted in Japan, and it’s only a matter of time before Ivy, now Britain’s Death Goddess, comes to claim her revenge. And her fiancé, Hiro, has been killed by her own hand. Her brother, Neven, is gone, lost in the deep darkness. Her Shinigami see her as a foreigner on the throne. But her problems have never been greater. Half British Reaper, half Japanese Shinigami Ren Scarborough is no longer the girl who was chased out of England-she is the Goddess of Death ruling Japan’s underworld. ![]() 6/24/2023 0 Comments The heart principle quan![]() ![]() ![]() The Heart Principle is a winning balancing act. I appreciated this novel’s frankness about the characters’ struggles with mental health, the awkwardness of new sex, and the nuances of Asian American identity. Anna sees a therapist and receives a diagnosis that helps her put her relationships into perspective. Anna’s father falls ill, and The Heart Principle tackles hard questions about familial expectations and taking care of a sick parent. This book is much more than a fun, lighthearted romance. Maybe there really are other fish in the sea… Plus, they discover a shared love of ocean documentaries. He’s not who she thought she would end up with. Then her longtime boyfriend decides to open up their relationship, which is how she meets Quan. She’s practicing the same piece over and over, unable to play it straight through. Helen Hoang introduces us to Anna, a violinist who accidentally goes viral but is paralyzed with anxiety over her newfound fame. If you crave the electricity of these early moments (or if you’re a hardcore rom-com fan like me), then might I recommend The Heart Principle. There’s nothing more exciting than the possibility of love. ![]() 6/24/2023 0 Comments Adultery book by paulo coelho![]() ![]() ![]() I know that’s not ethical, but then not everything is. Perhaps today I’ll come up with an excuse to write an article about psychiatry and social security (the newspaper loves that kind of thing) and find a good psychiatrist to ask for help. But now it’s happened and I can’t do anything about it except take medication. I’ve always tried to meet everyone’s expectations. This is my problem the volcano has exploded and there’s no way to put the lava back inside, plant some trees, mow the grass, and let the sheep out to graze. After all, I’m the last person in the world to admit that I need help. Yesterday’s conversation did no good at all I’m starting to think that I’m headed out of the indignant phase and straight into apathy. ![]() My smile, on the other hand, grows even wider so that no one will suspect, and I swallow my desire to cry. In every minute and gesture I feel a weight I can’t identify, like an ani- mal who can’t quite understand how it got caught in the trap. "I WAKE up and perform the usual rituals-brushing my teeth, getting dressed for work, going into the children’s bedroom to wake them up, making break- fast for everyone, smiling, and saying how good life is. ![]() 6/24/2023 0 Comments Gathering blue by lois lowry![]() ![]() ![]() The novel opens with a now teenaged Kira leaving “the Field” where she has sat vigil next to her mother’s body for the four days it takes for her spirit to pass. Walking slowly back toward the remains of her cott, which has been burned to eradicate any traces of the disease that killed her mother, Kira wonders what she will do now that her mother is no longer there to protect her. ![]() 6/23/2023 0 Comments Les Misérables by Victor Hugo![]() ![]() Visually exciting, emotionally powerful, this is imaginative theatre with a capital "T." We highly recommend it for all groups-high school, college, amateur and professional. Special emphasis has been placed on the many small roles and female characters-the tragic Fantine and her daughter Cosette, the wretched Madame Thenardier, the lovelorn Eponine-among others. Filled with fascinating vignettes of 19th-century France, the script boasts a brilliant cast of characters who weave an exciting tapestry of humankind at its best and worst. Under two hours in length, it is the story of ex-convict Jean Valjean and his relentless pursuit by "law and order" police inspector Javert. Our gripping new version has been designed for very simple production (basically a few tables, chairs, and a bench). It has been filmed countless times and is currently the subject of a smash-hit international pop opera. ![]() Since then, it has never been out of print. Les Misérables, one of the world's greatest literary classics, sold out its first edition the day it went on sale in 1862. ![]() 6/23/2023 0 Comments Yes please by amy poehler![]() ![]() Offering Amy's thoughts on everything from her "too safe" childhood outside of Boston to her early days in New York City, her ideas about Hollywood and "the biz", the demon that looks back at all of us in the mirror, and her joy at being told she has a "face for wigs" - Yes Please is chock-full of words, and wisdom, to live by. ![]() Don't miss this collection of stories, thoughts, ideas, lists, and haikus from the mind of one of our most beloved entertainers.
