Book excerpt: “I may be a supersoldier but I sure as hell ain’t no Superwoman. Yes, it’s true my hand is steady, I have the eye of a marksman, and I can hit a moving target dead center at four hundred meters, but when it comes to making clever love decisions, I’m not the sharpest knife in the drawer. While I look pretty lofty in my spit-shined combat boots and razor-sharp battle dress uniform, like a lot of young sisters from the ’hood, I’ve taken a few wrong turns down the back alleys of life.” Meet Sergeant Sanderella Coffee, who has just completed a three-year overseas tour and is now reporting to a military installation in Virginia. She is a single mother whose goal is to attend the Army’s prestigious Officer Candidate School, which will guarantee a better life for her and her children. Sandie meets a man who matches her ambition and determination step for step in the form of Drill Sergeant Romulus Caesar, who literally marches into her life and turns it upside down. They fall in love, and Rom is everything Sandie could want—supportive, confident, self-reliant—but he’s also married. Because of the military’s tough policy on fraternization and adultery, Sandie could find her carefully orchestrated career slipping away like sand in a breeze.

So Sid, who shuns social media, challenges Cassie to reconnect through old-fashioned letters. Soon, the letters become a kind of mutual confessional that have real and soul-satisfying effects. They just might have the power to help Cassie save her marriage, and give Sid the strength to get her life back on track. But first, one of Cassie’s infamous lapses in judgment comes back to bite her, and all of the letters wind up in the one place you’d never, ever want to see them: the Internet . . .

Download or read book Love Is a Mix Tape written by Rob Sheffield and published by Crown Archetype. This book was released on 2007-01-02 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “The happiest, saddest, sweetest book about rock ‘n’ roll that I’ve ever experienced.”—Chuck Klosterman Mix tapes: We all have our favorites. Stick one into a deck, press play, and you’re instantly transported to another time in your life. For Rob Sheffield, that time was one of miraculous love and unbearable grief. A time that spanned seven years, it started when he met the girl of his dreams, and ended when he watched her die in his arms. Using the listings of fifteen of his favorite mix tapes, Rob shows that the power of music to build a bridge between people is stronger than death. You’ll read these words, perhaps surprisingly, with joy in your heart and a song in your head—the one that comes to mind when you think of the love of your life. Praise for Love is a Mixtape “A memoir that manages, no small feat, to be funny and beautifully forlorn at the same time.”—The New York Times Book Review “Humorous, heartbreaking, and heroic.”—Entertainment Weekly “The finest lines ever written about rock ‘n’ roll . . . Like that song on the radio, every word of Rob’s book is true. Love is a mix tape.”—Rolling Stone “Many of us use pop culture as a mirror of our emotional lives, but Sheffield happily walks right through the looking glass.”—Los Angeles Times “Sheffield writes with such aching remembering, you feel like you are invading his privacy . . . and it’s the truth of those details that make this memoir so touching.”—Newsweek
Book Synopsis The Executioner's Game by : Gary Hardwick
Download or read book The Executioner's Game written by Gary Hardwick and published by Gary Hardwick. This book was released on 2024-06-13 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Luther Green is the very best at what he does. But the mastery of his profession is nothing he can brag about. It's nothing for which he will ever be officially recognized and it will never earn him a large paycheck. But there is a high likelihood that Luther's proficiency at his job will get him killed. Luther Green is a government assassin. For more than a decade, he has traveled the world, surgically eliminating America's enemies, never questioning his orders while performing as reliably as death itself. But his new assignment threatens to change all that. Luther's superiors have designated his new target as Alex Deavers -- the agent who taught Luther everything he knows and a man now considered to be a rogue agent on the edge of insanity. For Luther, a man normally more concerned with determining the how of an assignment than the why, his new duty forces him to confront questions he's never before had to consider. Why is he being sent to kill someone on American soil when all of his previous assignments were done abroad? Why doesn't his agency notify the FBI? Perhaps most important, why does he get the feeling that his own agency is spying on him? As Luther seeks to uncover the clues that will lead him to his prey, he slowly realizes that Alex is on a mission of his own, playing a cat-and-mouse game with his former apprentice while setting in motion a plan that could kill millions. Luther begins to suspect that the only person who can give him the answers he needs is the psychotic madman he has been ordered to execute. Luther follows a perilous trail that takes him into the most dangerous territory he has ever encountered. He is just a pawn in a twisted chess match, but a pawn may transform itself into the game's most dominant weapon. Now he has just days to learn the rules and employ all of his skill and training to find the truth. But to defeat the deadly forces against him, Luther Green must win the most dangerous game of all.

Download or read book Wait a Second written by ,Manini and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2023-02-09 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Growing up haole on a small island is like growing up on a small planet. I grew up on the North Shore of Oahu. This experience made me hyper aware of my actions and the actions of others. In public school, the local braddahs would try to catch a haole (white person) off guard and then give them a aEURoefalse crack.aEUR An unexpected punch to the head that would intentionally leave the haole unconscious. This created an interesting mandate that caused me to be hyper aware of my surroundings. By default, I have also become aware of the intentions of a divine intelligence. This ultimately led me to discover that there is a God. This is a story of the discovery of a higher purpose. Like a meandering stream that overflows at times and grows dry at others, we are blessed whether we know it or not. The Lord has used me to show that we are accountable for our actions while we are on this planet. We reap in proportion to what we sow. In addition, I have learned that we will benefit greatly if we were to care more for others and our environment. I have come to realize that there are spiritual and natural events going on simultaneously. I have concluded that only by the grace of God can we keep from making bad decisions in life.

Book Synopsis Experiencing Music Video by : Carol Vernallis
Download or read book Experiencing Music Video written by Carol Vernallis and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2004-06-16 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Music videos have ranged from simple tableaux of a band playing its instruments to multimillion dollar, high-concept extravaganzas. Born of a sudden expansion in new broadcast channels, music videos continue to exert an enormous influence on popular music. They help to create an artist's identity, to affect a song's mood, to determine chart success: the music video has changed our idea of the popular song. Here at last is a study that treats music video as a distinct multimedia artistic genre, different from film, television, and indeed from the songs they illuminate—and sell. Carol Vernallis describes how verbal, musical, and visual codes combine in music video to create defining representations of race, class, gender, sexuality, and performance. The book explores the complex interactions of narrative, settings, props, costumes, lyrics, and much more. Three chapters contain close analyses of important videos: Madonna's "Cherish," Prince's "Gett Off," and Peter Gabriel's "Mercy St."
