Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Confessions of a Professional Overthinker is a story about an ex- nurse who decided she was sick and tired of being sick and tired. She spent years caring for many sick people in her public health job, caring for her family and everyone else and not caring for herself. Years of chronic stress and overthinking lead her to anxiety and depression. As it turned out, the anxiety and depression were just guide posts for her to wake up. Making the decision to start looking after herself before she ended up in one of those hospital beds too. Kristy decided to start making herself a priority, via a multi year deep dive into the inner workings of her mind, it was often fraught with a lot of sadness and pain, it is not and was not for the faint of heart. Asking the often difficult questions of why she had needed to abuse alcohol, food and living in an unconscious state of overthinking and trying to 'think herself well' to soothe her internal pain. The internal pain of being herself.She realised all the external soothing did was drive her further away from her truth. Kristy realised she had carried into her adulthood a lot of old childhood stories and programming, had been living an adolescent life, that had been been more harmful for her current life leading her down a dark path, her own 'dark knight of the soul'. It seems she woke up in a 35year old adult body with the mind of an adolescent. Two sections of her mind and body often at war with each other. Kristy fought a long hard battle of reconnecting her mind to her body, listening to herself instead of others. Going within, instead of going without. Learning how to become an adult in mind through self parenting, self acceptance, compassion and self love.- She learnt her subconscious programming was actually defective and that she needed to download a new internal program. Just like you would a computer system- She learnt to realise 'emotional healing' it is not a one and done kind of scenario. It takes work and planting of a seed, with daily watering and nurturing.- She learnt that there was a unique similarity between her accounting degree and her time as a nurse had a massive correlation to life balance as she understood it- She learnt what debited her life and what credited her life in order to create balance- She realised that your body and mind is the sum total of your own internal Assets, Liabilities and Owners Equity - Numbers are the language of the universe!- She learnt to balance and be OK with the fact that life is not linear, it is a lot like the stock market. Up and down. Some years are good some years are bad- She learnt what her top 5 value systems were and set about creating a life based on these values- She learnt what a boundary was, and how necessary it is to say NO sometimes- She learnt to let go of her perfectionist tendencies- She learnt comparison is a killer and that staying in your lane is the only way out- She learnt that life is all about choices. Make the choice to live a good life or be taken down in misery.

Confessions of a Professional Overthinker is the book of a Nurse and Behavioural scientist. An educated professional woman with a health science background who had somehow fallen down the wrong rabbit hole of life and discovered her souls' purpose was not to make everyone else happy. But herself! a strange concept in this world it would seem. Dive into the world of one woman who nursed people at different points in their lives, often at their most vulnerable.

The book is about how she healed her mind, changed her internal narratives and chose her own health and wellness, finding what filled up her own cup. Kristy decided to take a deep dive into her own internal world to figure out what it was that had been causing the symptoms of burnout and how she could heal from it. It is her hope that this book will help others to bravely step into their lives and break free from societal norms of what others expect of us and to be brave enough to forge your own path - even if it means doing it kicking and screaming. At the end of the darkness is light; beautiful shiny light. Hope, healing and health.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The #1 New York Times bestselling (mostly true) memoir from the hilarious author of Furiously Happy. “Gaspingly funny and wonderfully inappropriate.”—O, The Oprah Magazine When Jenny Lawson was little, all she ever wanted was to fit in. That dream was cut short by her fantastically unbalanced father and a morbidly eccentric childhood. It did, however, open up an opportunity for Lawson to find the humor in the strange shame-spiral that is her life, and we are all the better for it. In the irreverent Let’s Pretend This Never Happened, Lawson’s long-suffering husband and sweet daughter help her uncover the surprising discovery that the most terribly human moments—the ones we want to pretend never happened—are the very same moments that make us the people we are today. For every intellectual misfit who thought they were the only ones to think the things that Lawson dares to say out loud, this is a poignant and hysterical look at the dark, disturbing, yet wonderful moments of our lives.

Book excerpt: The bestselling, award-winning modern classic Speak is now a stunning graphic novel—adapted by Laurie Halse Anderson herself and brought to life visually by Eisner Award winner Emily Carroll. "Speak up for yourself—we want to know what you have to say." From the first moment of her freshman year at Merryweather High, Melinda knows this is a big lie, part of the nonsense of high school. She is friendless, an outcast, because she busted an end-of-summer party by calling the cops. Now nobody will talk to her, let alone listen to her. As time passes, Melinda becomes increasingly isolated and practically stops talking altogether. Only her art class offers any solace, and it is through her work on an art project that she is finally able to face what really happened at that terrible party: she was raped by an upperclassman, a guy who still attends Merryweather and is still a threat to her. Her healing process has just begun when she has another violent encounter with him. But this time Melinda fights back—and refuses to be silent. The groundbreaking National Book Award Finalist and Michael L. Printz Honor Book about consent, healing, and finding your voice comes alive for new audiences and fans of the original novel in Speak: The Graphic Novel.

Book excerpt: 'Alright' I said, 'I'll try...' This is how Emily Stuart opens her intricate tale of a classic love affair that becomes Caroline's Bikini: a swirling cocktail of infatuation, obsession, and imagination.The moment that Emily's friend Evan Gordonstone - a successful middle-aged financier - meets Caroline Beresford - a glamorous former horsewoman, and now housewife, hostess, and landlady - there is a 'PING!' At least, that's how Evan describes it to Emily when he persuades her to record his story: the story of falling into unrequited love, which is as old as Western literature itself. Thus begins a hypnotic series of conversations set against the beguiling backdrop of West London's bars, fuelled in intensity by endless G&Ts and Q&As. From the depths of mid-winter to July's hot swelter, Emily's narration of Evan's passion for Caroline will take him to the brink of his own destruction.Written in a voice so playful, so charismatic, and so thoughtfully aware of the responsibilities of fiction it can only be by Kirsty Gunn, Caroline's Bikini is a swooning portrait of courtly love - in a modern world not celebrated for its restraint and abstraction. Ready. Steady. Go!

Book excerpt: He is the last man I should have picked to star in my movie… But I didn’t have a choice, right? Now, I must deal with the tall, handsome, blue-eyed, and Oscar-winner Harrison Bates. Why am I complaining? Because he embodies what I hate the most about Hollywood: a billionaire who uses his money to get what he wants. And everyone throws themselves at his feet. Everyone except me. He is also the reason why I have a big budget for this movie. He found the investors, and they put him in the lead role. No Harrison, no money. It’s as simple as that. Looking on the bright side, after ten years of being a director of indie movies with a tight budget, I finally have the chance to shine in a project that can skyrocket my career to the top of the Hollywood realm. All I need to do is spend a few months with Harrison’s cumbersome fame—and handsome face. And kissable lips. And sculpted abs. I can do this. I’m strong enough to not fall for him like everyone else. The Actor: Harrison is an enemies-to-lovers spicy romance featuring an indie director chasing her breakthrough, a handsome actor trying to change the path of his suffocating career, a not-so-cute first encounter, and a broken table. It’s a stand-alone, but you can read The Producer: Aaron and The Senator: Raphael if you prefer to follow the release order.

Book excerpt: A fascinating examination of how restricting speech has continuously shaped our culture, and how censorship is used as a tool to prop up authorities and maintain class and gender disparities Through compelling narrative, historian Eric Berkowitz reveals how drastically censorship has shaped our modern society. More than just a history of censorship, Dangerous Ideas illuminates the power of restricting speech; how it has defined states, ideas, and culture; and (despite how each of us would like to believe otherwise) how it is something we all participate in. This engaging cultural history of censorship and thought suppression throughout the ages takes readers from the first Chinese emperor’s wholesale elimination of books, to Henry VIII’s decree of death for anyone who “imagined” his demise, and on to the attack on Charlie Hebdo and the volatile politics surrounding censorship of social media. Highlighting the base impulses driving many famous acts of suppression, Berkowitz demonstrates the fragility of power and how every individual can act as both the suppressor and the suppressed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exuberant storytelling full of wry comedy, dark history, and devastating satire—by the celebrated and original author of the #1 New York Times bestseller, Say You’re One of Them. From a suspiciously cheap Hell’s Kitchen walk-up, Nigerian editor and winner of a Toni Morrison Publishing Fellowship Ekong Udousoro is about to begin the opportunity of a lifetime: to learn the ins and outs of the publishing industry from its incandescent epicenter. While his sophisticated colleagues meet him with kindness and hospitality, he is soon exposed to a colder, ruthlessly commercial underbelly—callous agents, greedy landlords, boorish and hostile neighbors, and, beneath a superficial cosmopolitanism, a bedrock of white cultural superiority and racist assumptions about Africa, its peoples, and worst of all, its food. Reckoning, at the same time, with the recent history of the devastating and brutal Biafran War, in which Ekong’s people were a minority of a minority caught up in the mutual slaughter of majority tribes, Ekong’s life in New York becomes a saga of unanticipated strife. The great apartment deal wrangled by his editor turns out to be an illegal sublet crawling with bedbugs. The lights of Times Square slide off the hardened veneer of New Yorkers plowing past the tourists. A collective antagonism toward the “other” consumes Ekong’s daily life. Yet in overcoming misunderstandings with his neighbors, Chinese and Latino and African American, and in bonding with his true allies at work and advocating for healing back home, Ekong proves that there is still hope in sharing our stories. Akpan’s prose melds humor, tenderness, and pain to explore the myriad ways that tribalisms define life everywhere, from the villages of Nigeria to the villages within New York City. New York, My Village is a triumph of storytelling and a testament to the life-sustaining power of community across borders and across boroughs.

Nicholai Hel is the world’s most wanted man. Born in Shanghai during the chaos of World War I, he is the son of an aristocratic Russian mother and a mysterious German father and is the protégé of a Japanese Go master. Hel survived the destruction of Hiroshima to emerge as the world’s most artful lover and its most accomplished—and well-paid—assassin. Hel is a genius, a mystic, and a master of language and culture, and his secret is his determination to attain a rare kind of personal excellence, a state of effortless perfection known only as shibumi. Now living in an isolated mountain fortress with his exquisite mistress, Hel is unwillingly drawn back into the life he’d tried to leave behind when a beautiful young stranger arrives at his door, seeking help and refuge. It soon becomes clear that Hel is being tracked by his most sinister enemy—a supermonolith of international espionage known only as the Mother Company. The battle lines are drawn: ruthless power and corruption on one side, and on the other . . . shibumi.

Book excerpt: Mazey Eddings, author of the “witty, fast-paced rom-com”* A Brush with Love, mixes passion and humor to create a luscious love story between two people stumbling through life and learning to open their hearts in Lizzie Blake’s Best Mistake. Lizzie has made endless mistakes. Kitchen fires, pyramid schemes, bangs (of the hair and human variety), you name it, she’s done it... and made a mess of it too. One mistake she’s never made is letting anyone get closer to her than a single hook-up. But after losing yet another bakery job due to her uncontrolled ADHD, she breaks her cardinal rule and has a two-night-stand that changes everything. Once burned, twice shy, Rake has given up on relationships. And feelings. And any form of intimacy for that matter. Yet something about charming, chaotic Lizzie has him lowering his guard. For two nights, that is. Then it’s back home to Australia and far away from the pesky feelings Lizzie pulls from him. But when Lizzie tells him she’s got an unexpected bun in the oven, he’ll do whatever it takes to be a part of his child’s life... except be emotionally vulnerable, obviously. He’s never going to make that mistake again. Through a series of mishaps, totally “platonic” single bed sharing, and an underground erotic baking scheme, Lizzie and Rake learn that even the biggest mistakes can have the most beautiful consequences. *USA Today bestselling author Evie Dunmore

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From one of the nation's preeminent experts on women and emotion, a breakthrough new book about how to stop negative thinking and become more productive It's no surprise that our fast-paced, overly self-analytical culture is pushing many people-especially women-to spend countless hours thinking about negative ideas, feelings, and experiences. Renowned psychologist Dr. Susan Nolen-Hoeksema calls this overthinking, and her groundbreaking research shows that an increasing number of women-more than half of those in her extensive study-are doing it too much and too often, hindering their ability to lead a satisfying life. Overthinking can be anything from fretting about the big questions such as "What am I doing with my life?" to losing sleep over a friend's innocent comment. It is causing many women to end up sad, anxious, or seriously depressed, and Nolen-Hoeksema challenges the assumption-heralded by so many pop-psychology pundits of the last several decades-that constantly expressing and analyzing our emotions is a good thing. In Women Who Think Too Much, Nolen-Hoeksema shows us what causes so many women to be overthinkers and provides concrete strategies that can be used to escape these negative thoughts, move to higher ground, and live more productively. Women Who Think Too Much will change lives and is destined to become a self-help classic.
