Broken Pieces : Rachel Thompson

Broken Pieces : Rachel ThompsonBroken Pieces

Broken Pieces is an award winning book about relationships, a study of women, and a book with heart. Vastly different in tone from her previous essay collections A Walk In The Snark and The Mancode: Exposed, Broken Pieces is a collection of pieces inspired by life: love, loss, abuse, trust, grief, and ultimately, love again.

While still non-fiction, best-selling Broken Pieces is not humor at all. In Thompson’s most intensive work to date, she opens her soul and invites the reader in for a visit. Thompson goes into those long buried rooms we lock up deep inside and shares a bit of her soul. Broken Pieces is vulnerable, raw honesty, and no-holds barred.

Delicious Meals For 1.22 Euros : Kat Miller

Delicious Meals For 1.22 Euros : Kat MillerDelicious Meals For 1.22 Euros

This book is addressed to anyone who is attempting to cook delicious, nutritious and healthy meals on a budget. It costs an average of 1.22 Euros Per Person (excluding dessert) to make these meals, and an average of 1.72 Euros Per Person (including dessert) to make them.

Whether you are a complete beginner who has never cooked a meal in their life, or whether you are an experienced cook, it is certain that this book will provide you with cheap, extremely tasty recipes which you will be able to make on a regular basis and enjoy.

All of the recipes come with simple, step-by-step instructions with photographs, so anyone can understand how to prepare these meals.

No fancy cooking utensils or expensive ingredients are required to make any of these recipes: all of the necessary cooking utensils can be found in even the most basic of kitchens, and the only ingredients which are required to make these recipes are staples (e.g. flour, sugar, canned tuna) and fresh produce (e.g. fresh fruit and vegetables).

As a young professional who is endeavouring to spend as little as possible on healthy, tasty, complete and well-balanced home-made meals, and as an individual who has previously cooked in the kitchens of restaurants and pubs, I felt that I possessed the knowledge which was necessary to write a book about how to make decent meals on a limited budget. Cooking your own meals provides you with numerous, considerable advantages. For instance, you can dictate exactly how much or how little of a particular ingredient to put in your favourite meal (this is particularly useful for those who suffer from food allergies). You can also save huge amounts of money by cooking your own meals (see the “Real Italian Pizza” recipe for an excellent example of this. In this recipe, I show you how to make an authentic Italian pizza at a cost of 0.82 Euros per person).

I hope that those who are in similar or in identical circumstances to mine find this book useful, enjoy it, and are able to keep fit and save money by cooking the recipes which are contained within this book. It is this hope that incited me to write my own cook book, which consists in recipes that I make on a regular basis, and which are loved by all of those who have tasted them.

Lights Over Dreary : Alison Daines

Lights Over Dreary : Alison DainesLights Over Dreary – The Peculiar Adventures Of Mercy Fisher

Life as Mercy Fisher knows it is about to romp to an end.

All Mercy wishes for is a little excitement, but as a bored checkout operator for a local supermarket, the closest she gets to any is the occasional smashed wine bottle or bag of exploding pasta.

Her life takes a turn for the weird and dangerous though when an alien prince, on the run from another dimension, arrives seeking protection from giant space fleas and enemy bounty hunters.

With the prince indignantly trapped in the body of a domestic cat, hilarity ensues as Mercy struggles against the machinations of an evil corporation, puzzles over her past and tries not to throttle her new feline companion for being obnoxious – all the while doubting her own sanity and coming to terms with a set of annoying new abilities.

Assassins, killer robots, squishy invisible monsters and kick-ass action abound. Can Mercy save the town from being vaporized by Agents from beyond? Or will her quest for normal un-alien-tampered hair and a boyfriend come first?

The Ramblings of a Poetic Fool : Richard StephenThe Ramblings of a Poetic Fool

“The Ramblings of a Poetic Fool” is Rick Stephen’s first collection of poems, poems drawn not only from the life of the author but of the reader’s as well.  Exploring themes common to the human experience, these poems leave the reader with an experience not easily forgotten since many times they hit close to home.

Rick Stephen invites us to look into the mirror and examine our deepest feelings of desire, love and loss, ecstasy and pain, hope, disappointment and desperation.

Honest, frank and often cathartic these poems bring the depth of the human condition to the surface. His unique style manages to capture what is often so difficult to express.  It seems he writes about us and to us, transforming our life into a permanent memento of words or as the author calls them, “ramblings”. Beautiful, captivating and intriguing – as only a Poetic Fool can pen.

From Behind the Curtain : Sierra Kay

From Behind the Curtain : Sierra KayFrom Behind the Curtain

Dee spent most of her life on welfare, watching her often-absent father struggle with addiction and, lately, watching her mother’s battle with cancer. Dee had paid her dues.

When her Auntie M brought her to live in Atlanta, things were supposed to get better. In Atlanta, Dee had new clothes, a full fridge, and her own bedroom. However, she soon realized there were other issues. The most important was the apparent overdose of Pastor Clifton, her aunt’s best friend and secret love. Pastor Clifton was trying to clean up the neighborhood. So how did he end up slumped over his desk-dead? And why, in a church full of gossips, was no one saying a word?

In Dee’s world, that level of power wasn’t unheard of. But here, it was difficult to distinguish the players and, more importantly, who was managing them from behind the curtain.

The Way of Life : Sue Curran

 The Way of Life : Sue CurranThe Way of Life

People are never what they seem to be.

Take four women, friends since school. Add four men, six days and ninety-five miles of breathtaking Scottish Highland scenery, and you have a recipe for a journey filled with secrets and lies, accusations and apologies, laughter and tears, aches and pains, blisters and midge bites.

Joy is a perfectionist who doesn’t do failure. Will her most protected and guarded secret revealed the night before the holiday blow apart the fragile mask of her perfect marriage?

Kathy’s pleasant demeanour hides a demoralised woman with little self belief. Has she the courage to put her secret D-T-Day plan into action and start a new life?

Ruth is caring, lively and funny but also lonely and bored. The last place she expects to find a new challenge is in the middle of the Scottish Highlands.
Trish, a straight talking woman, who cares deeply for her loved ones, tests her marriage when she refuses to follow her own ‘honesty is the best policy’ approach.

As the miles roll on, the unrelenting heatwave saps their energy. Feet are weary and blistered, tempers become frayed and accusations are made. With nowhere to hide in the solitude of the mountain footpath, emotions are exposed in all their rawness, and truth and honesty finally find their voice.

The Way of Life is a story of relationships, secrets, trust, honesty, and discovering that being true to yourself sometimes means being strong enough to make changes, no matter how difficult that may be.

Liberty Awakened : Alicia Dean

Liberty Awakened : Alicia DeanLiberty Awakened – Isle Of Fangs Book 1

Evil lurks beneath the surface in the beauty of the tropics…

After graduation from her small, Oklahoma high school, Liberty Delacort is looking forward to a fun-filled summer before college. But when the people she trusts the most betray her, and a letter arrives claiming her deceased father is still alive, she jumps at the chance to travel to an exotic island to meet him.

But her excitement is short-lived. Her father is dying, and he doesn’t want her around. And, in spite of its outward tranquility, the island is filled with danger and ominous secrets. The secrets soon begin to unravel, and she discovers she is a descendant of Van Helsing, the vampire hunter.

The one up side is her budding romance with the sweet and sexy Ryan Kelly. But even that is threatened when—in spite of her fear of him—she finds herself attracted to an insolent, formidable vampire. Her plan to stay away from him fails when she learns he is the only one with the ability to train her to fulfill her destiny—to save humans from a faction of vicious vampires.

Will her inexperience lead to her death—and the death of others—or will she rise to the challenge and realize her full potential as a Hunter?
