Title: Ricochet Through Life

Publisher's Summary:

My brain tumor journey took me through the world of traditional medicine, which saved my life, and into the realm of alternative medicine, which gave me back my life. I learned not to "attack" or "beat" the tumor. Instead, I made friends with the process and came out the other side stronger than I ever realized was possible. I believe we all possess this strength, and sometimes we need challenges such as mine to help us find it. I know the "ricochet" of my surgery and recovery, more surgery and yet more recovery, was an experience I can now use to help anyone going through medical or life challenges. There are roads and pathways I never knew existed, not just for physical recovery, but mental as well. Life is a journey of living and dying, breaking and healing, losing and finding. My hope is that you find my experiences inspiring and helpful as you make your way through your own challenges in life.

I admire how she didn't just sit back and feel sorry for herself but sought beneficial ways to better her life

I purchased the book for a young friend who is going through brain cancer. I read it first as I didn't want it to upset her.. I thought Toni conveyed her journey through this period in her life very well. It was not a depressing book but rather inspiring. I admire how she didn't just sit back and feel sorry for herself but sought beneficial ways to better her life. Pleasant reading

Wonderful guide to living life when adversity hits you in the gut.

This is the gut wrenching story of how Toni accepted the hand she was dealt while making her own personal decision to not let it get her down. It's a fascinating story of how to live life in the present. There never was any doubt as to how this story ended. So very upbeat.

Heart warming true story and fast read

Heart warming story and a fast read. First chapter begins a little bumpy in it's flow, but her story unfolds smoothly after that. Enjoyed very much!

Highly recommend

What a journey. It won't take long to read the book, but the effect it will

have on you will last for a long time. Reading it was both a sobering and

enlightening experience. I'm a cancer survivor, but it was an easily

treated/cured cancer. I've never experienced the terrifying ups & downs

that she went through. But I've had friends (as I'm guessing, all of us have)

battle serious cancers, some successfully, some not. I think all of them

would have found hope and comfort reading this book. I've even gone back

through looking for mention of some of her coping mechanisms to research

on my own, hoping they might help me with some of the ailments in my life.

I think everyone who reads this book will be thinking about what they

would have done faced with a terrifying diagnosis. The term "hero" is

thrown around far too often today to describe people in no way heroic, but

Toni is a hero to me.

You don't have to have cancer to benefit from reading this. At the most it

may put some of your life in perspective; at the least it will comfort you. It

may even inspire you.

Five Stars

What a journey!

Title: Recognizing the Face of Abuse

Subtitle: A Faith Based Perspective and Personal Memoir

Author: Leah Serra Jacob

Narrator: Kathi Rabadeau

Format: Unabridged

Length: 2 hrs and 54 mins

Language: English

Release date: 06-05-17

Publisher: Jessica Nigra

Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 1 votes

Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Personal Memoirs

Publisher's Summary:

The true accounts of my personal abusive marriage narrative are revealed with the intent to engage the listener in self-reflection and self-awareness, and much more. How do we know when it is safe to rightly say we have become victims of domestic violence? How does one move forward in revealing the ugly, sad truth to our loving others. The "ideal life", so individual, so subjective. My life as I dreamed it would include a loving husband and loving children. My husband had indeed become part of the ideal. If only I had known the ideal would become my "idol". And woe to those who promise to love, honor, and cherish such graven images. Very early on in my marriage I witnessed my precious spouse cross into abnormal and frightening behaviors. I knew his behaviors were both morally and culturally unacceptable and meant to hurt me. The first traumatic incident arrived while still blissfully recalling the wedding festivities, the excitement of seeing friends, and majesty of it all. The dream faded quickly as instinct and self-preservation took its place. I have just now become an abused wife. The predatory lion attacks his prey at the throat. Instinctively he knows to attack that which is most vulnerable. So it is with the predatory mortal male who seeks to wound and destroy. Unlike the lion who roars, having secured his prey and now fully satisfied, the appetite of the abuser remains insatiable. "I should just punch you right in the face." As I contemplated his threat, a phrase from a recent movie came to mind. I thought about quoting it aloud in response. The movie was Sudden Impact with Clint Eastwood; the phrase, "Go ahead, make my day." Glaring at Kevin straight on, I opted to give him the finger instead. Should have stuck with the catchphrase. In seemingly no time at all, Kevin had me down on the small patch of tile floor at the doorway. There he began to strangle me.

He also shares a behind-the-scenes look at what it means to work for Uber and addresses the public's common concerns. In particular, he shares his experiences in dealing with the intoxicated and downright dangerous individuals.

Join the author as he shares thrilling adventures that earned him extra cash while exposing him to a multitude of people in a southern college town in Stars in My Car.

Members Reviews:

Go along for a great ride....

This beautifully-written little book is a behind-the-scenes peek of the life of one Uber driver, Steven Roy Grimsley, who may or may not be typical of the breed. But his vignettes provide insight into the lives and times of folks who are willing to entrust their traveling safety to a stranger whose driving qualifications are mostly taken on faith. Steven lets his characters reveal themselves, sometimes through his gentle prodding, weaving together stories that are thoughtful, contemplative, wild, outrageous and just plain fun.

The book made me think about researching becoming an Uber driver, but in the end I decided it would be a lot more rewarding to just spend random evenings sitting in the back of Steven's car and going along for the ride.

Love this book!

Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 1 votes

Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Personal Memoirs

Publisher's Summary:

Looking at family life from the inside out is totally different from looking at it from the outside in. In my book there's one person named Magdaline Slatewood. She was born into a big family where her parents were married but actually lived in two separate homes a lot of the time. But they were still able to provide the love, discipline, and guidance that she needed to maintain a good life.

My book lets families understand that even when you try to do the right things in life, your life will still be filled with many obstacles, struggles, and surprises. One can never look at the problem and throw their hands up. Always work toward a solution. Magdaline's parents were determine not to be defeated in their marriage of over 40 years. She was motivated by their marriage, that it takes patience, determination, self-control, and commitment to reach her goals in life. Both parents were determined to make sure their kids were not subject to neglect in any way and good taken care of. It required the both of them to become one at heart and stay true to their vows, but to operate separately, working for the common goal that both families would still become one. They realize that this would not happen overnight; it would take time. It did happen through many years of challenges. Both families became one big family, not perfect, but showing respect for one another!

As for Magdaline, she believes that everybody is somebody. She knew life wasn't always fair, but she believed in treating others fair with an open mind. Her motto is: the world would be a better place if we would show more love toward one another. Life may not be fair just continue to work at it, you can get the outcome you want! Magdaline's life was not always peaches and cream. She also experience some days of lemons and limes. In those times, she often prayed for wisdom and strength. Her faith is strong in God through Christ. Philippians 4:13 says: I can do all things through Christ which strengthens me!

Title: The American Man at Age 10

Author: Susan Orlean

Narrator: Susan Orlean

Format: Unabridged

Length: 37 mins

Language: English

Release date: 04-25-17

Publisher: Audible Studios

Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Personal Memoirs

Publisher's Summary:

He is old enough to begin imagining that he will someday get married, but at 10 he is still convinced that the best thing about being married will be that he will be allowed to sleep in his clothes. His father once observed that living with Colin was like living with a Martian who had done some reading on American culture. As it happens, Colin is not especially sad or worried about the prospect of growing up, although he sometimes frets over whether he should be called a kid or a grown-up; he has settled on the word kid-up.

In her classic 1992 Esquire cover story, "The American Man at Age Ten", best-selling author Susan Orlean takes listeners inside the mind of an ordinary 10-year-old boy and attempts to see the world the way he sees it: short on girls but full of pizza, candy, and Nintendo - and shot through with the fleeting magic of childhood.

"The American Man at Age Ten" was originally published in Esquire, December 1992.

Members Reviews:

What's it like to be a... boy

What an amazing piece: this is applied psychology, describing the world through the eyes of a ten year old, seemingly withholding judgment. If it were not for that mysterious paragraph about the boy being a small version of the man, a thought that gives this piece a sense of dread, or horror even: this is how American manchildren get manufactured by a media barrage. I am sure this hypothesis of a personality being cast like an insect in amber at age ten merits some qualification ( I recommend the superbly written long form study "Triumphs of Experience" that makes the opposite argument: it is never too late to change your life, even as a septuagenarian). So, even though I am doubtful about the latent passive aggression lurking in this piece, I still loved reading it; it gave me a sense of engrossed engagement like reading a novel: being blissfully abducted into the twin minds of a boy and an amazing writer.

As the Mother of 3 Boys, I Thought it Was Perfect

Well worth reading, especially if you've wondered what goes on in their heads. I definitely have. I enjoyed it thoroughly.

Epic nostalgia

Dry and witty without a trace of snark. Male or female, you may find yourself wishing you were 10 again

Nostalgic

Puts life into perspective. This book made me realize how fast I have grown up and how much I miss being free (a kid)

Neat story

Nice and quick little read. It really captured the imagination of a tenacity of any 10 year old little boy

I could not put this book down!

I read the entire book in 2 days. The story is very compelling. I kept wanting know what happened next with each page. It's so sad how SOME doctors use people as experiments instead of doing what they truly believe is the right course of treatment. Good for this mom who stood up for her child(ren) and did everything she could to make sure the proper care was given. Very inspirational story for any mother who's challenging authority figures on behalf of their child(ren)! Get this book!

Totally Recommend!!!

Wow!! Couldn't put it down..This is a very interesting story. I would totally recommend this book. I would say you don't have to be a mother to feel the pain.

Title: Plot 29: A Love Affair with Land

Author: Allan Jenkins

Narrator: Allan Jenkins, Mike Grady - foreword

Format: Unabridged

Length: 7 hrs and 41 mins

Language: English

Release date: 03-23-17

Publisher: HarperCollins Publishers Limited

Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Personal Memoirs

Publisher's Summary:

Plot 29 is on a London allotment site where people come together to grow. It's just that sometimes what Allan Jenkins grows there, along with marigolds and sorrel, is solace.

When I am disturbed, even angry, gardening has been a therapy. When I don't want to talk, I turn to plot 29 or to a wilder piece of land by a northern sea. There, among seeds and trees, my breathing slows, my heart rate too. My anxieties slip away. I nurture small plants from seeds, like when I was small and needed someone to care for me. I offer protection from danger, as I tried to for my brother. It's not all about healing, though it's there in abundance, like summer beans. Sometimes it's just the joy of growing food and flowers and sharing with people you love.

A personal narrative blended with beautiful descriptions of gardening and the pleasures of losing yourself in the horticultural, Plot 29 weaves together memoir and memory from the author's childhood to the present day.

Members Reviews:

relaxing with parts intense.

I was excited to hear this. It didn't disappoint. interesting, touching and raw. I felt for him and could relate to a lot of what was said. Having had a negative beginning I've grown to a positive existence. enjoyed this thank you Allan Jenkins.

Excellent book for the right audience

This is a really good book,but feel you need to be in the right mindspace to enjoy it.

Tedious

A well written but tedious account of a troubled childhood against the backdrop of a year in the life of an allotment. The author's love of plants shines through and this is inspiring but totally overdone. One is always kept waiting for the next snippet of the childhood story line. I persevered until the end and came away feeling I had wasted my money.
