Book Synopsis Leave Me Where I Lie by : Ellen Williamson
Download or read book Leave Me Where I Lie written by Ellen Williamson and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2004-03-10 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is no way you can read this book and not feel the pain and joys of Mattie Posey as she lives in the aftermath of the Civil War on a farm in Mississippi. The times are hard and she has to do the work of a man on the family farm, as she has no brothers to help with the farm work. When her religiously prejudiced parents interfere with her love for a catholic boy, Matties pain devastates her soul and threatens to break her spirit. Matties manic/depressive mother, Annie, vacillates between extreme emotional lows and highs, which cause her to be very strict, and a harsh disciplinarian. Matties father, Wade, is a gentle, kind man. However, he does not take a stand against his wifes extreme discipline of the children. Mattie must assume her mothers duties and care for her when she is incapacitated by her depression. A rogue panther is lured to the Posey house by the smell of fresh, butchered pork which hangs in the smokehouse. The familys life is endangered when the dogs corner the panther under the kitchen but Annies quick thinking and action saves her family. Matties love for her horse, Prince and her confidence in his speed entice her to enter the horse race at the Neshoba County Fair. Her determination to prove Prince as the fastest horse in the community causes her to break rules in order to win the race. The Posey family and the black family, who shares their surname, have been bound in a close relationship since Wade and Joshua were small children. The trials of rugged farm life and the illnesses and deaths due to a lack of medical care bind them even closer. When Mattie falls in love with Frank Haney, a boy of the Catholic faith, her prejudiced parents take drastic measures to prevent their marriage, so they decide to elope. The Ku Klux Klan interferes with Wades efforts to reward his faithful, black friend with a deed to part of his farm. When a cross is burned in his front yard he visits each of the Klan members and gives them a piece of the charred cross. Years later, Mattie meets John Mayo, who is twenty years her senior and when he proposes marriage to her she has difficulty accepting because of her love for Frank.

She can’t move. She can’t speak. She can’t open her eyes. She can hear everyone around her, but they have no idea.

Book Synopsis Just Let Me Lie Down by : Kristin van Ogtrop
Download or read book Just Let Me Lie Down written by Kristin van Ogtrop and published by Little, Brown Spark. This book was released on 2010-04-01 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kristin van Ogtrop knows she's lucky-fulfilling career, great husband, three healthy kids, and, depending on the hamster count, an impressive roster of pets. You could also say she's half-insane, but name one working mom who isn't. Using stories and insights from her own life, van Ogtrop offers a lexicon for working moms everywhere. Terms and concepts illustrate the highs (kids who know where their soccer cleats are, coworkers who don't hit "Reply All," dogs who helpfully eat whatever falls from the table) and the lows (getting out of the house in the morning, getting along with everyone at the office, getting willful kids into bed) of balancing work and family. Filled with amusing and resonant observations, Just Let Me Lie Down establishes van Ogtrop as the Erma Bombeck of the new millennium.
Download or read book Let Me Lie written by James Branch Cabell and published by University of Virginia Press. This book was released on 2001 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Let Me Lie was first published in 1947, most reviewers missed the double meaning of the book's title. Deaf to James Branch Cabell's many-layered ironic wit, they read the book as a paean to the old South. Readers of this new paperback edition are unlikely to repeat the mistake. Let Me Lie is indeed a carefully researched and brilliantly written historical narrative of Virginia from 1559 to 1946--focusing on Tidewater, Richmond, and the Northern Neck--but as a fictional scholar remarks in the book, Cabell's history is "both accurate and injudicious." Virginia's story of itself, Cabell claims, depends on illusion and myth, and his skill as a satirist allows him to construct and deflate these myths simultaneously. Ranging from Don Luis de Velasco and Captain John Smith to Edgar Allan Poe and Ellen Glasgow, from Confederate heroes to the oddities of the post-Civil War Old Dominion, Let Me Lie remains compulsively readable, as history, entertainment, or both.

Book Synopsis Even When You Lie to Me by : Jessica Alcott
Download or read book Even When You Lie to Me written by Jessica Alcott and published by Ember. This book was released on 2016-06-07 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A steamy debut about a love off limits, and lines destined to be crossed—with the wit of John Green and the heart of Sarah Dessen. Tom Drummond is the perfect guy. He reads the classics. He tells the wittiest jokes. Best of all, he actually likes Charlie. And for a girl used to being caught in the shadow of her best friend, Drummond’s spotlight warms Charlie in a way she never thought possible. But as their relationship grows closer, there’s one detail that remains impossible to forget: Mr. Drummond is her teacher. “Jessica Alcott’s writing is like a very personal glimpse into your own adolescent diary. Raw, uncomfortable, but still often hilarious.” –Harried Reuter Hapgood, author of The Square Root of Summer “The witty repartee among characters is reminiscent of the dialogue in John Green’s novels or a Gilmore Girls episode.” –School Library Journal “Perfect for fans of Sarah Dessen.” –Booklist

Download or read book Tell Yourself a Better Lie written by Marisa Peer and published by Rtt Press. This book was released on 2022-01-10 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do you ever wish you could rewrite your life? Our lives are defined by the stories we tell ourselves, but those stories aren't always true. Narratives that are based on outdated or irrelevant information can run (or ruin) our lives for years, even if those stories are wildly different from the objective reality that formed them. In her sixth book, Tell Yourself a Better Lie, best-selling author Marisa Peer shares for the first time how Rapid Transformational Therapy (RTT) creates stunning in-the-room turnarounds for issues as varied as suicidal depression, eating disorders, weight loss, and life-limiting phobias and addictions. Through ten diverse case studies, Marisa explains how our unmet needs as children can morph into fixed stories we tell ourselves in adulthood-and, more importantly, how we all have the power to change them. If you've been longing for a happier, more fulfilled life, pick up Tell Yourself a Better Lie and take control of your own story today.
Download or read book Song of Myself written by Walt Whitman and published by Gildan Media LLC aka G&D Media. This book was released on 2024-03-20 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the Greatest Poems in American Literature Walt Whitman (1819-1892) was considered by many to be one of the most important American poets of all time. He had a profound influence on all those who came after him. “Song of Myself”, a portion of Whitman’s monumental poetry collection “Leaves of Grass”, is one of his most beloved poems. It was through this moving piece that Whitman first made himself known to the world. One of the most acclaimed of all American poems, it is written in Whitman’s signature free verse style, without a regular form, meter, or rhythm. His lines have a mesmerizing chant-like quality, as he sought to make poetry more appealing. Few poems are as fun to read aloud as this one. Considered to be the core of his poetic vision, this poem is an optimistic and inspirational look at the world in 1855. It is exhilarating, epic, and fresh in its brilliant and fascinating diction and wordplay as it tries to capture the unique meaning of words of the day, while also embracing the rapidly evolving vocabularies of the sciences and the streets. Far ahead of its time, it was considered by many social conservatives to be scandalous and obscene for its depiction of sexuality and desire, while at the same time, critics hailed the poem as a modern masterpiece. This first version of “Song of Myself” is far superior to the later versions and will delight readers with the playfulness of its diction as it glorifies the self, body, and soul. “I am large, I contain multitudes,”

Book Synopsis In the Middle of BeLIEve There's A Lie by : Dudley (Chris) Christian
Download or read book In the Middle of BeLIEve There's A Lie written by Dudley (Chris) Christian and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2017-05-13 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A-ways back, back beyond the early 1960s I wrote some rhymed lyrics for a few friends of my father, who used them for playing in their home bands. As time went on, I wrote more but didn't even think about putting these in a booklet or having any means of documenting their ownership. A few years later a shipmate of mine looked at and became interested in my few saved works. It was now in the end part of 1961 when I started haphazardly keeping a little book (attempting to keep a record) of some of my song lyrics, song poems, song ballads and even a few thoughts or ideas to be useable in movies or as concert fillers. I do NOT sing myself and as such never had the training to put my words to music vocally. Still my collections grew. Thus to interested and/or musical friends: "FOR YOU". Explore these lyrics to find something you would be willing to take a second long look at, with the hope or thought of being able to use it in your jam session or musicale. Please contact if you wish to use these lyrics.

I hoped for a second chance at Darkwood University, only to have my dream ripped away the first time I kissed one of the handsome bastards. They know who I am. And they're determined to make me pay.

And just because they have the power, the connections, the faces and bodies of gods... do they really think they'll win? I wanted a new life, not a war. But if they insist, we'll see who ends up playing.
