Book excerpt: "Who are we, really? Are we shaped by our past, by our plans for tomorrow or by life as it happens to us? Are we a result of the lives our parents led or are we an amalgamation of all of it? This is a story of three people who are trying to figure just that. Three people whose life, as they know it, shatters after a traumatic event. Three people who are trying to find a new beginning - a beginning away from their darkness. Three people who want to fade to white."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is no teasing apart what interracial couples think of themselves from what society shows them about themselves. Following on her earlier ground-breaking study of the social worlds of interracial couples, Erica Chito Childs considers the larger context of social messages, conveyed by the media, that inform how we think about love across the color line. Examining a range of media, from movies to music to the web, Fade to Black and White offers an informative and provocative account of how the perception of interracial sexuality as "deviant" has been transformed in the course of the 20th century and how race relations are understood today.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Clever, introverted Joan struggled to come to terms with her mother's death by plunging herself into a dark, colorless, emotionless world. At home, she played lacrosse with her older brother; the best therapy for two kids who had lost the solar power on which their lives had run. Away from home, she haunted the hallways of high school like an invisible ghost. Until one summer day when a golden boy moved in next door, which caused her humorous, awkward, often embarrassing inner conversations to tumble out to complicate and light her path back to living once more, out loud and in color. Reviews by Readers Windmark 5.0 out of 5 stars Great read for a High School Youth Reader I loved how this innocent high school "love story" takes you from when the pair meet, through the senior year together, through the eyes of a girl who is grieving the loss of her Mom. Seen through her eyes and emotions, it is a great journey to take with her, to learn how others cope with tragedy at such a tender age. Great character formation. You feel like you know these kids. The LaCrosse games and jargon are an added bonus for kids who are considering which sports to rake up. I read it first, and highly recommend it to young girls entering, or already in, high school. I'm giving it to a sweet 13 year old girl for Christmas! MH 5.0 out of 5 stars I highly recommend this book! This "young adult" book is a wonderful read for any age. Kris Abel-Helwig is a very talented writer whose characters are well-crafted and engaging. I highly recommend stepping into Joan's world and enjoying the experiences this book has to offer. Swan 5.0 out of 5 stars A story that you won't forget Great story and I loved the healthy (and entertaining) relating in it so much I read it twice. There's nothing formulaic about it. Let's point Hollywood to this! It's so much better than the Ladybird movie which was nice but had no fresh aha moments like this writer so deftly crafted. FTBW is brilliant! Shelby parmenter 5.0 out of 5 stars Must Read I love this book. I was so intrigued I read it in one weekend. This book keeps you on your toes with all the witty banter. Also very informational on lacrosse. Haha. I'm waiting for the next installment of this series as I know it will be just as great as the first one! Westleigh 5.0 out of 5 stars Great characters; great read! As a mother of teen readers, I sincerely appreciate well-written, young, female characters. While having to cope with stressful realities of high school life, Joan was blind-sided by tragedy, yet manages to be strong, intelligent, independent, and able to find her own path through it all. I found Joan to be a great example to young women, the characters to be distinct, realistic, and funny, and the story to be a welcome one! Glad to have read it - now, where's the next one?;-) One person found this helpful B. Suidikas 5.0 out of 5 stars f2b&w is a fantastic read. It is relatable f2b&w is a fantastic read. It is relatable, honest, emotional, and fun in it's storyline and it's characters. As a cancer survivor I was captivated in reading about how it takes a toll on more than just the patients. Definitely a finish in one sitting kind of book, and great for any and all readers. Enjoy! One person found this helpful Jim H. 5.0 out of 5 stars Smart, funny Smart, funny, riveting read, that once picked up cannot be put down. Loved Joan Jett, who stayed true to character throughout. I'd say, "hit me with your best shot," but you already did. 2 people found this helpful

A city that the Ministry rules from the sunlit summit, and where the forsaken lurk in the darkness of Under. Rojan Dizon doesn't mind staying in the shadows, because he's got things to hide. Things like being a pain-mage, with the forbidden power to draw magic from pain. But he can't hide for ever. Because when Rojan stumbles upon the secrets lurking in the depths of the Pit, the fate of Mahala will depend on him using his magic. And unlucky for Rojan -- this is going to hurt.

Book excerpt: Throughout the last fifty years, author Edward Nichols has spent much of his interior life consumed with attempts to fill in the blanks and contradictions in his family history, especially the status of his father, who left the family in 1943. In Fade to White, Nichols shares his personal and family history against the backdrop of his father's disappearance and how it affected every aspect of his life. For years, no one knew if Nichols' father was dead or alive. This memoir follows Nichols' upbringing in the small, isolated colored world of the Bronx in the 1940s and 1950s, to medical school abroad, to his long-running medical practice and helping pediatric patients, to advocating and supporting his daughters. Honest and poignant, Fade to White narrates his life story with its ups and downs and triumphs and challenges. It tells of one family's coming together-an epilogue of one man's search for his father.

Book excerpt: Dan Savage’s mother wants him to get married. His boyfriend, Terry, says “no thanks” because he doesn’t want to act like a straight person. Their six-year-old son DJ says his two dads aren’t “allowed” to get married, but that he’d like to come to the reception and eat cake. Throw into the mix Dan’s straight siblings, whose varied choices form a microcosm of how Americans are approaching marriage these days, and you get a rollicking family memoir that will have everyone—gay or straight, right or left, single or married—howling with laughter and rethinking their notions of marriage and all it entails.

Download or read book Screens Fade to Black written by David J. Leonard and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2006-06-30 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The triple crown of Oscars awarded to Denzel Washington, Halle Berry, and Sidney Poitier on a single evening in 2002 seemed to mark a turning point for African Americans in cinema. Certainly it was hyped as such by the media, eager to overlook the nuances of this sudden embrace. In this new study, author David Leonard uses this event as a jumping-off point from which to discuss the current state of African-American cinema and the various genres that currently compose it. Looking at such recent films as Love and Basketball, Antwone Fisher, Training Day, and the two Barbershop films—all of which were directed by black artists, and most of which starred and were written by blacks as well—Leonard examines the issues of representation and opportunity in contemporary cinema. In many cases, these films-which walk a line between confronting racial stereotypes and trafficking in them-made a great deal of money while hardly playing to white audiences at all. By examining the ways in which they address the American Dream, racial progress, racial difference, blackness, whiteness, class, capitalism and a host of other issues, Leonard shows that while certainly there are differences between the grotesque images of years past and those that define today's era, the consistency of images across genre and time reflects the lasting power of racism, as well as the black community's response to it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A road trip novel from the author of Fup that “reads like Kerouac’s On the Road as it might have been written by Hunter S. Thompson” (The Plain Dealer). George Gastin is a Bay Area tow-truck operator who wrecks cars as part of an insurance scam. One of the cars he is hired to demolish is a snow-white Cadillac that was supposed to be a present for the Big Bopper, who died in the Iowa plane crash that killed Buddy Holly and Ritchie Valens. Gastin has a change of heart and takes off in the car, heading for Texas where the Bopper is buried. Armed with a thousand hits of Benzedrine and chased by adversaries real and imagined, Gastin navigates a road trip that covers many miles and states of mind. Traveling in time from the Beat era to the dawn of the sixties, from the coffeehouses of North Beach to the open plains of America, Gastin picks up some extraordinary hitchhikers: the self-proclaimed “world’s greatest salesman,” the Reverend Double-Gone Johnson, and a battered housewife with a box of old 45s. As the miles and sleepless hours roll by, Gastin’s trip becomes a blur of fantasy and reality fueled by a soundtrack of classic rock ‘n’ roll. “His surreal voyage into the chaos of night carries him into the heart of America’s darkest psychological landscapes. Not Fade Away shakes, rattles, and rolls.” —San Francisco Chronicle
