The Summer Nights Never End... Until They Do by Robert James Waller Pdf

You may know Robert James Waller as the man who brought the world to Iowa's storied covered bridges. What you may not realize is that before and since becoming an internationally acclaimed novelist, Waller has grappled with a very real puzzle: How can an individual, a group, and/or a society cut through the confusion of everyday life to successfully navigate its pitfalls and traps? Through intense reflection, shrewd reasoning, and not a little trial and error, the reclusive author has developed a unique and inventive paradigm for thinking clearly and logically. In The Summer Nights Never End Until they Do, Waller shares a methodology can be applied to everything from governmental gaffs and immigration reform to losing weight and financial freedom. Like so many things that make sense, Waller's words are complex in their simplicity, turn from the madness of short-term, quick fixes and toward time-tested, reasonable goals. The devil is in the details. So, too, are the answers.

Every Summer After by Carley Fortune Pdf

#1 NATIONAL BESTSELLER NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER Six summers to fall in love. One moment to fall apart. A weekend to get it right. They say you can never go home again, and for Persephone Fraser, ever since she made the biggest mistake of her life a decade ago, that has felt too true. Instead of spending summers in cottage country, on the glittering lakeshore of her childhood, she stays in a stylish apartment in Toronto, keeping everyone a safe distance from her heart. Until Percy receives the call that sends her racing back to Barry’s Bay and into the orbit of Sam Florek—the man she never thought she’d have to live without. For six summers during their youth, through hazy afternoons on the water and warm nights working in his family’s restaurant, Percy and Sam had been inseparable. And when Percy returns to the lake, their connection is as undeniable as it had always been. But until she can confront the decisions she made, they’ll never know whether their love is bigger than the biggest mistakes of their past. Told over the course of six years in the past and one weekend in the present, Every Summer After is a gorgeously romantic look at love and the people and choices that mark us forever.

Everything I Never Told You by Celeste Ng Pdf

The acclaimed debut novel by the author of Little Fires Everywhere and Our Missing Hearts “A taut tale of ever deepening and quickening suspense.” —O, the Oprah Magazine “Explosive . . . Both a propulsive mystery and a profound examination of a mixed-race family.” —Entertainment Weekly “Lydia is dead.

Lydia is the favorite child of Marilyn and James Lee, and her parents are determined that she will fulfill the dreams they were unable to pursue. But when Lydia’s body is found in the local lake, the delicate balancing act that has been keeping the Lee family together is destroyed, tumbling them into chaos. A profoundly moving story of family, secrets, and longing, Everything I Never Told You is both a gripping page-turner and a sensitive family portrait, uncovering the ways in which mothers and daughters, fathers and sons, and husbands and wives struggle, all their lives, to understand one another.

If We Were Villains by M. L. Rio Pdf

“Much like Donna Tartt’s The Secret History, M. L. Rio’s sparkling debut is a richly layered story of love, friendship, and obsession...will keep you riveted through its final, electrifying moments.” —Cynthia D’Aprix Sweeney, New York Times bestselling author of The Nest "Nerdily (and winningly) in love with Shakespeare...Readable, smart.” —New York Times Book Review On the day Oliver Marks is released from jail, the man who put him there is waiting at the door. Detective Colborne wants to know the truth, and after ten years, Oliver is finally ready to tell it. A decade ago: Oliver is one of seven young Shakespearean actors at Dellecher Classical Conservatory, a place of keen ambition and fierce competition. In this secluded world of firelight and leather-bound books, Oliver and his friends play the same roles onstage and off: hero, villain, tyrant, temptress, ingénue, extras. But in their fourth and final year, good-natured rivalries turn ugly, and on opening night real violence invades the students’ world of make-believe. In the morning, the fourth-years find themselves facing their very own tragedy, and their greatest acting challenge yet: convincing the police, each other, and themselves that they are innocent. If We Were Villains was named one of Bustle's Best Thriller Novels of the Year, and Mystery Scene says, "A well-written and gripping ode to the stage...A fascinating, unorthodox take on rivalry, friendship, and truth."

The Adventures of Guille and Belinda and The Enigmatic Meaning of Their Dreams by Alessandra Sanguinetti Pdf

Pendant plus de deux décennies, Alessandra Sanguinetti a photographié la vie de Guillermina et Belinda, deux cousines vivant dans la campagne argentine, alors qu'elles traversaient l'enfance et la jeunesse vers la féminité. Ce volume, initialement publié en 2010 et réédité aujourd'hui comme le premier volet d'une trilogie, raconte les cinq premières années de leur collaboration. Les images de Sanguinetti dépeignent une enfance à la fois familière et exceptionnelle. Les terres agricoles de l'ouest de la province de Buenos Aires sont un mélange particulier de moderne et de traditionnel, où la vie est vécue en harmonie avec les animaux et les paysages accidentés. Dans ce contexte, Guille et Belinda traversent les rites d'enfance de se déguiser et de faire croire, d'explorer et de s'approprier le monde qui les entoure au fur et à mesure. Alors qu'elles glissent entre les rôles, se produisent alternativement pour et sont capturées par la caméra de Sanguinetti, le lien profond entre les deux filles est indéniable. A l'approche du précipice du début de l'adolescence, leurs jeux sont empreints du poids poignant de leurs rêves et de leurs désirs alors que le monde du jeu rencontre celui de la réalité. En dépeignant la vie des femmes et des filles dans le monde traditionnellement masculin des gauchos et agriculteurs argentins, le livre de Sanguinetti interroge les cadres de mythologies de toutes sortes, honorant des vies généralement invisibles. Les Aventures de Guille et Belinda est un portrait de l'enfance rurale à la fois calme et poétique, dans laquelle le fantastique et le banal sont intimement liés.
