 | ‘Perfect Strangers’ By Justin Marlowe | Biographies & Memoirs, Relationships, Teens | "Perfect Strangers" is the concept for a book written by Justin Marlowe. The title pulls from the 1980s sitcom by the same name, although they bear no acute similarities. The story centers on the auto-biographical relationship between protagonists Justin Marlowe and Nicos Eaton, who met, by chance, during their time in high school. Justin and Nicos are African-American, male, suburbanites living in Stafford County, Virginia. Justin is snarky and cynical athlete, as well as a military brat, that often comes off as callous and shallow. Thanks to his father being a Lieutenant Colonel in the Armed Forces, Justin and his family were able to move and travel all over Europe. After settling in the states, they consistently relocated before finding a permanent home in Northern Virginia. Conversely, Nicos' youth was primarily spent in the Tidewater area of Virginia. Their meeting was spear headed by their casual relationship with the same female. She “cheated” on Justin with Nicos, which causes some initial conflict. One might assume that this would cause lasting tension, but it ended up producing a fruitful friendship. . It is the process, the intrinsic relatability, and the humor, that make for a massively engaging story. | April 26, 2023 | Vote | biographies-memoirs relationships teens |

Peggy and her husband and three children traveled around the world in a 1972 VW camper that they took to seven countries and forty-eight states over a period of four decades. The car is still on the road today. The family lived in England, Mexico, Canada, New Jersey, and California. They traveled and camped throughout Europe. It's the story of a strong woman who kept her family together and provided her children with educational experiences that lasted a lifetime. My name is Alan Hurst. I am the author and narrator of this story. My parents bought the car when I was eight years old. This is not a picture book. It is 22 chapters, 38,000 words, which I understand is short, but I am not wasting anybody's time. It started out as 250 pages and has been whittled down and is tight and fast moving, deep and clear. It is like Old Man and the Sea: Old Woman and the Van. I am attaching Chapter One, as well as an article from the Santa Barbara Independent which I wrote that summarizes most of the story up to 2013, but it doesn't end there....

Considering these exact words may not form in our conscious minds, the feelings themselves can still be overwhelming and all consuming. In my memoir, these feelings were in my conscious mind as a senior in high school and again recently when losing one home after another mostly as a result of mold. When indoor dampness and mold leads to allergic rhinitis, this results in a cost of $3.7 billion annually. With 70% of the homes in this country containing mold, 28% of the US population also carry the genes that make it impossible to process the mycotoxins found in mold regardless of the amount of exposure. When my husband and I begin losing one home after another mostly due to mold, the trauma of each loss triggered memories of my early childhood abuse, resulting in a healing journey no one expected. With each loss, we began another search for a safe and healthy home bringing about healing and revelations never considered for those suffering with the scars of severe childhood abuse. My story begins with the commonality of childhood abuse and neglect, but it's a story of adapting, of determination, and most importantly of never giving up. | September 29, 2022 | Vote | biographies-memoirs |

 | ‘The Healing Connection: Creating a Partnership for Your Health’ By Drew Remignanti, MD, MPH | Diet, Health, & Fitness, Religion & Spirituality, Self-Help | Dollar driven decisions by administrators at hospitals, health insurance providers and pharmaceutical companies are wielding too much influence over our medical decisions as patients (and sadly as physicians as well). Alarmingly, one hospital CEO of a $1.5 billion healthcare system said, “People need primary care but not necessarily a physician relationship.” As patients, we are prone to place excessive importance on convenience and satisfaction, as well as the number of healthcare interventions we can obtain at the lowest personal expenditure in both dollars and effort. A 2012 study though showed that patients who were most satisfied with their healthcare had more hospital admissions, higher total healthcare and prescription drug expenditures, and even greater death rates than patients who were less satisfied. The link no doubt is that we report being satisfied when we get more medications, more healthcare services, and more hospitalizations, which then lead to an increased risk of death. In this book, I will explain why I passionately believe that it is only in partnership with an experienced, trusted physician that we can arrive at a joint decision regarding the medical interventions most appropriate for our condition. | July 9, 2022 | Vote | diet-health-fitness religion-spirituality self-help |

 | ’49 Ways the GOP Has Destroyed Democracy’ By Bill Kuhn | Dystopian, Education & Reference, Politics & Social Sciences | An outrage book about the Republican Party, one that will inspire anger and action, particularly in new voters. That’s what you’ll find here, in 49 Ways the GOP Has Destroyed Democracy, which makes the case that Donald Trump was not an aberration but the logical conclusion of what’s been happening on the right for years. I’ve divided it into 49 different short chapters, each of which focuses on a different way that the Republican Party has poisoned our political system with a deceitful, no-hold-barred, and often blatantly racist style of politics. The chapters are configured in such a way that readers can easily share and debate a single chapter in isolation; each stands alone as a well-researched entry contribution to the national conversation and debate. But they also work as a whole, in that form equipping readers with a fundamental understanding of how the GOP has operated in the past several decades—what their motivations and allegiances have been, and how they’ve done a masterful job of propagandizing and fear-mongering. | August 12, 2021 | Vote | dystopian education-reference politics-social-sciences |

 | ‘Sophia and Cassius’ By Anna Canić | History, Literature & Fiction, Romance | Sophia and Cassius is the first prose work by the author Anna Canić in the genre of historical fiction. The writer presents well-known stories about the lost paradise and the decadence of the ancient civilization in a different light, focusing on the religious, philosophical and esoteric themes. In the prologue, we meet the true face of the first woman – wise, strong, determined and good-hearted. Sophia brought the art of writing to the world, desperately wishing to love and be loved. Unfortunately, to meet her perfect man, she had to wait... for death, three thousand years and rebirth as Julia Drusilla, the Roman princess. However, this work is not just a love story. In the new body, Sophia is chosen to lead the epic battle of the Good against the Evil. Together with her friends of different nationalities, statuses and religions, brave Drusilla exposes the conspiracies and deceptions of the archenemy. The novel abounds in interesting historical and biblical figures such as Boudicca, Mary Magdalene and Seneca. Despite the celebration of the female principle, the main heroine is not at all similar to the suffragettes, nor does her inner revolutionary clash with the natural order. It is also interesting that the end of the story actually suggests its continuation. | June 7, 2021 | Vote | history literature-fiction romance-2 |

 | ‘A Last Look in the Water Mirror’ By Seosamh Ó Riain | History, Literature & Fiction | Violence which led to the tragic young death of a friend compels Diarmaid O’ Connor to look closer at the world around him. That world has just come out of the horrors of the First World War and has long accepted bloodshed and brutality as part of everyday life. Diarmaid is idealistic and wishes to take a stand against the injustices of British colonisation as he sees it. The problems from without are easier to identify and categorise. Less discernible but equally destructive are the problems from within. Idealism opens doors of great possibility but also paves the path for a very Machiavellian and ultra-conservative leadership, one that fights for physical freedom but shuns its cultural and intellectual counterparts. They want a rebellion, but Diarmaid covets societal renaissance and a cultural reawakening that goes beyond a mere rebellion. A Last Look in the Water Mirror is a novel exploring consequences and how idealism born out of persecution can degenerate into disillusionment and death. | February 18, 2021 | Vote | history literature-fiction |
