My Life in France দ্বারা Julia Child with Alex Prud'homme
You must know Julia Child দ্বারা name if not দ্বারা reputation. The cook of all cooks. The woman who revolutionized American household kitchens; she entered the প্রথমপাতা দ্বারা TV and left us groaning, having just gorged on prodigious French food. But that really isn't her, Julia Child declares, in her book. My Life in France is an amazing, humanizing potrait of Julia Child as we peek into her life before fame and (can আপনি belive it?) her life before she could cook (she claims that she was horrible in the রান্নাঘর before moving to France and attended cooking...

This is a common phrase/question that people employ when asking us booksellers for suggestions for their বন্ধু and family. "Well, he/she loved so-and-so...what else is like that" In fact, that is very helpful when trying to recommend books, knowing other বই & authors that they like.

Since everyone was so positive about my last article, I decided to make it a series of sorts. Different themes, maybe one প্রবন্ধ a month. I am 23 and I still প্রণয় all of the following books. People can enjoy them at any age, but these are especially great ones for kids and teens. There were so many to choose from, so I apologize that I had to leave out so many of my favorites. Let's all recapture youth! As always, these are in no particular order.

1. The Neverending Story দ্বারা Michael Ende
This is one of the few ফ্যান্টাসি novels that isn't an entire series. Not to offend anyone, but I do not like...

Who Am I?
By: Gabriela Acosta



Chapter 1
“How would আপনি describe me Lilly?” I asked.
“Paula, you’re a very smart and unique person. But also mysterious. In a good way.” She replied.
“How am I mysterious? I mean, I never thought of myself that way.”
“Because you’re always so quiet around people. Not around me, of course. It’s like আপনি shut yourself down completely, like আপনি don’t want them to know who আপনি are.”
“But আপনি know I’m very shy! Besides, I’m not very good at socializing, আপনি know? I always make myself sound like a total freak!
“Hey, আপনি asked for my...

'Losing to Win' লেখক Randy Jernigan has put rumors to rest, coming out as gay on a Christian talk radio program this week.

The celebrity biographer opened up to close friend and talk প্রদর্শনী host Stephen Seares about his "life-long burden" in a very emotional interview on the early Sunday morning show.

Jernigan was asked to appear on the প্রদর্শনী to talk about politics and his support of Hillary Clinton when Seares প্রশ্ন turned personal.

"yes I'm gay..,and I've carried this secret with me all my life and I just can't do it anymore," Jernigan explained to the conservative radio audience. "It's...

For a lot of people with chronic disease, the inability to work is a difficult and frustrating reality. Contrary to common misconceptions that not working must be "nice." অথবা must be like taking an "extended vacation," the lack of a job for medical reasons can have significant consequences on a person's sense if identity--not to mentions finances and interpersonal relationships.

Writer Randy Jernigan recently shed some light on this reality while he was a guest on Donny Max's 'Lets Talk About It' radio program out of Seattle. Randy, who has been diagnosed with End Stage Renal Failure, Chronic...

*A person in the "questions" section asked if they were "too old" to read young adult novels. They wanted to know "how old is too old"? I presume that a lot of adults ponder this question, অথবা feel ashamed of পাঠ করা young adult novels instead of "adult" novels. This was my answer, and I hope it will help you, too:

I believe that any adult can share in the joy and experience of losing yourself in a good book; whether it's a young adult novel অথবা not.
Young adult novels usually revolve around themes that attract the tween/teen ages, but this does not mean that these themes do not also attract adults,...

The Know-It-All: One Man's Humble Quest to Become the Smartest Person in the World দ্বারা A.J. Jacobs
Just for the heck of it, one দিন A.J. Jacobs decided to read the entire Encyclopedia Britannica, all thirty-two volumes. Surprisingly his details about his adventure is quite amusing and he does share some very interesting tidbits from the EB. অথবা as Jon Stewart says: "The Know-It-All is a hilarious book and quite impressive achievement. I've always said, why doesn't someone put out a less complete version of the encyclopedia? Well done, A.J."

Apoc·a·lypse

Pronunciation:

1: one of the Jewish and Christian writings of 200 B.C. to 150 A.D. marked দ্বারা pseudonymity, symbolic imagery, and the expectation of an imminent cosmic cataclysm in which God destroys the ruling powers of evil and raises the righteous to life in a messianic kingdom

2: something viewed as a prophetic revelation

3: a great disaster

Whether it's been a subconscious attempt to remind myself that despite the economic recession, current wars and general devastation, life could be worse, the theme of my পাঠ করা recently has been "apocalypse". Bring...

(original title: Essere Gentile)
by Piero Ferrucci, 2008, 306 pages
and Vivien Reid Ferrucci (Translator)

A book to read as a soul provider – if আপনি are in a state of confusion, conflict, in quest of wisdom অথবা in reach for soul comfort – অথবা all…

A leading transpersonal psychologist reveals the unexpected secret to a happy life: behaving with kindness.

Piero Ferrucci calls it "global cooling," a phenomenon of chilly human relations. Communications are hurried and impersonal. The drive for profit and wealth has become a cherished value. And warmth and genuine presence have all but dissolved...

Last বছর I put together a তালিকা of বই that I read coupled with my opinions on them, using my reviews from good reads. I decided to keep it going.

Avatar: The Last Airbender (Smoke and Shadow #3)


I got to read this one like way back in March thanks to tumblr lol. But I decided to wait until I actually got a physical copy to review it on here.

Any how 10/10 *was satisfied with the amount of Azula*
As always, I really enjoyed the comic as a whole, I really liked this story line. The whole fear based theme and the Kemurikage were wonderful. I'd really প্রণয় to know আরো about those ladies.

Statement of Intent: If আপনি read to the end, you'll notice that I do not advocate against পাঠ করা Twilight, just putting it into context for young readers. This was originally written for a ফেসবুক audience of বন্ধু until I decided to post it here as well. It was not intended to offend Twilight অনুরাগী অথবা readers, but to simply give a little perspective on why I believe Edward Cullen is a poor character to respect/admire. Should there be enough জনপ্রিয় demand, I'm willing to write a similar প্রবন্ধ about Bella Swan.

Luis Fuentes has always been sheltered from the gang violence that nearly destroyed his brothers’ lives. But that didn’t stop him from taking risks — whether he’s scaling a mountain in the Rockies অথবা dreaming of a future as an astronaut, Luis can’t stop looking for the পরবর্তি thrill. Nikki Cruz lives her life দ্বারা three rules — boys lie to get their way, don’t trust a boy who says “I প্রণয় you,” and never তারিখ a boy from the south side of Fairfield. Her parents may be from Mexico, but as a doctor’s daughter, she has আরো in common with her north-side neighbors than the Latino...

This was a book প্রতিবেদন that I wrote for my English class. If you're thinking of পাঠ করা the Hunger Games, I suggest that আপনি look at this...

The Hunger Games is a very জনপ্রিয় book among teens my age. It’s basically about a sixteen-year-old girl named Katniss whose sister (named Prim) was chosen to compete in the Hunger Games, which was an annual tournament where two children from each District (there are 12-ish) are forced to fight to the death on live television. Katniss apparently really loved her sister অথবা something, because she volunteers to go in Prim’s stead.

He’s looking at me like – well, like he wants to look at me. Like he likes what he sees, and he’s smiling and his eyes are so blue, even in the faint glow of the porch light they shine, and I nod dumbly, blindly, then grope for the door handle, telling myself to look away and not yet able to do it.
“Sarah,” he says, softly, almost hesitantly, and my হৃদয় slam bangs, beating hard, and this is what it’s like to want someone আপনি can’t have. To want someone আপনি shouldn’t even be looking at.
Sarah is in quite the predicament. She’s riding that rollercoaster of first প্রণয় – the...

 I প্রণয় to read!
I love to read!
Hi guys, I would like to write down some of my favourite বই that I had previously and currently reading.

The Harry Potter Series

I প্রণয় Harry Potter series, because it's very intrigue and I প্রণয় J.K Rowling's style of writing. She's one of the inspiration in writing! So salute to her and will read the latest Harry Potter book once it comes out.

The Chronicles of Narnia

I had always thought that this is even better than Harry Potter because it's আরো extraordinary and has আরো suspense.
However, one of the things that I was disappointed that Susan Pevensie did not যোগদান the gang in 'The Last...

 The Book, I loved it.
The Book, I loved it.
Starcrossed.

Helen Hamilton has always tried to hide how different she is—no easy feat on an island as small as Nantucket, and only getting harder as she finds herself haunted দ্বারা hallucinations and vivid nightmares.

It's not until she crosses paths with Lucas Delos at school that Helen's true heritage is finally revealed. Yet even as Lucas helps her awaken to her startling powers, they can never be together—not unless they can break free from the tragic destiny the Three Fates have in store.
