Nightfalls in Texas by Thomas Posey Pdf

Nightfalls in Texas is a moving saga of life and love, of loss and redemption, of trails taken, and trails not taken. It is also a lyrical, touching, humorous, and sometimes poetic portrayal of growing up on the vast West Texas plains. Nightfalls in Texas is a story complete with all of the trials, the tribulations, and the cruel twists of fate that we all face in our shared experiences. Mr. Posey has captured the very essence of what life in a small west Texas Hamlet is like. “The Great Gatsby” meets “Giant” meets “The Last Picture Show.” He has infused his book with colorful and uniquely textured characters. The “starry-eyed-bubbas”, “small-town beauties”, “craggy land barons”, “gridiron warriors”, “town crazies”, “sage old soreheads”, “genteel debutantes”, “marauding desperadoes”, and other various and sundry characters. Nightfalls in Texas is also a story of shattered dreams and a boy’s journey into the promise land, and of another man’s lifelong search for a second chance that may never come. Finally, you are left with the remnants of a bittersweet story and a haunting ballad that will leave a searing resonance on your heart, and the sound of a distant clap of thunder on your soul.

Night Falls Fast by Kay Redfield Jamison Pdf

Critical reading for parents, educators, and anyone wanting to understand the tragic epidemic of suicide—”a powerful book [that] will change people's lives—and, doubtless, save a few" (Newsday). The first major book in a quarter century on suicide—and its terrible pull on the young in particular—Night Falls Fast is tragically timely: suicide has become one of the most common killers of Americans between the ages of fifteen and forty-five. From the author of the best-selling memoir, An Unquiet Mind—and an internationally acknowledged authority on depression—Dr. Jamison has also known suicide firsthand: after years of struggling with manic-depression, she tried at age twenty-eight to kill herself. Weaving together a historical and scientific exploration of the subject with personal essays on individual suicides, she brings not only her remarkable compassion and literary skill but also all of her knowledge and research to bear on this devastating problem. This is a book that helps us to understand the suicidal mind, to recognize and come to the aid of those at risk, and to comprehend the profound effects on those left behind.

She blames it on her family's curse, despite her dad's persistence that no curse exists. But after multiple break-ins occur in her hometown of Charmwood and someone she loves dearly is killed during one of the burglaries, she’s certain that this curse is very real. As a record-breaking storm rolls in and residents evacuate, Charmwood quickly turns into the burglars’ playground. She knows they won’t stop until they find what they’re looking for, and she knows it’s linked to her family. With her dad and best friend refusing to give in to her theories of magic and mayhem, Callie is forced to enlist help from the one person she wants to avoid the most - mysterious small town sheriff, Garrett Reyes.

Whispers of Nightfall by Alexa Turczynski Pdf

She heard a hundred undecipherable whispers floating through the atmosphere, surrounding her in an invisible wall, but amongst the murmurs she perceived one distinct voice calling out above the rest. Though her instincts told her to release the unnatural object, she clasped it and stared up at the spectacular spiral that towered above her. The one voice graduated closer to her, growing louder and louder. Slowly, the words became distinguishable, and her ears were pricked to catch them. Lauria thinks that her life might never hold anything more for her than the occasional festival or the conflicts with her family. But one night when she sneaks out in hopes of stealing a few moments alone, a strange raindrop changes her world forever. It bursts forth into a vortex of light and sound and releases a creature of unnatural beauty and power who tells her there is a task she must complete. Far across the plains of her homeland, Austurea, a dying soldier named Jestun lies in an empty battlefield. As Lauria struggles to discern the task laid before her and make sense of the strife within her family and her own heart, Jestun searches for the answers surrounding his family's mysterious past. Meanwhile a Dark power hovers over them and their fates, their only shield the Light that is bringing their paths closer together. Whispers of Nightfall is the first book of a saga that rages across land and dimensions, questions issues of identity and destiny, and reveals the battle between Light and Darkness.
