Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's not pretend when feelings get involved... As a veteran defenseman for the Newport Beach Seagulls, I know what it’s like to protect. Protect my net. Protect the puck. Protect my team. I’m not even above throwing my gloves off if I need to in order to send a message to the other team. My neighbor is a completely different story. Chloe Summers keeps to herself and minds her own business. She’s cute in that sexy librarian sort of way but I’ve never made a move. See, I like to keep to myself too. And relationship is not a word in my vocabulary. But then I find out that she’s in trouble. My protective instinct kicks in. I tell her I’ll pretend to be her boyfriend in order to keep her from harm. And then I realize she’s so much more than a sexy librarian. I want her, nearly as much as I want the Stanley Cup. And I’m so close to both, I can’t f*cking take it. - The flowers all over my porch. That was the first sign that he found me. After years of hiding, he found me. I shouldn’t be surprised. He has money, he has charm, he’s even attractive. But he’s been my nightmare for five years. It’s why I don’t date. I don’t have many friends. I don’t even say hi to my gorgeous if stoic neighbor. I know he plays for the NHL. He’s probably just looking for some privacy. But then, Art Jackman gets involved. It’s not his choice. And I sure don’t want him to know these things. Now, he does and I can’t hide who I am anymore. When he gives me an offer I can’t refuse, I get to know Art more and I realize he’s not just gorgeous, he’s everything I want. But will he even want me with my past finally catching up to me?

Download or read book Train Wrecks written by Robert C. Reed and published by Pictorial History of Accidents. This book was released on 1996 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: American railroad history is filled with accounts of misadventure. Steam boilers blew up. Bridges collapsed under the weight of heavy engines. Locomotives crashed head-on because of signal failures. Passenger cars derailed, often with dire results. Lightly built wooden coaches splintered on impact, and the debris often ignited from the coals in the iron stoves used for heating. In the mid-nineteenth century American railroading was burgeoning -- a growth too fast for safe operations. Despite the grim statistics of 19th and early 20th century train wrecks that resulted, one cannot help but find the photographs and public prints of the day interesting. When you pick up this wondrous book, you will have a hard time putting it down.

Download or read book Trainwreck written by Sady Doyle and published by Melville House. This book was released on 2017-08-29 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Smart ... compelling ... persuasive .” —New York Times Book Review She’s everywhere once you start looking: the trainwreck. She’s Britney Spears shaving her head, Whitney Houston saying “crack is whack,” and Amy Winehouse, dying in front of millions. But the trainwreck is also as old (and as meaningful) as feminism itself. From Mary Wollstonecraft—who, for decades after her death, was more famous for her illegitimate child and suicide attempts than for A Vindication of the Rights of Woman—to Charlotte Brontë, Billie Holiday, Sylvia Plath, and even Hillary Clinton, Sady Doyle’s Trainwreck dissects a centuries-old phenomenon and asks what it means now, in a time when we have unprecedented access to celebrities and civilians alike, and when women are pushing harder than ever against the boundaries of what it means to “behave.” Where did these women come from? What are their crimes? And what does it mean for the rest of us? For an age when any form of self-expression can be the one that ends you, Doyle’s book is as fierce and intelligent as it is funny and compassionate—an essential, timely, feminist anatomy of the female trainwreck.
Book Synopsis Everyone Loves a Good Train Wreck by : Eric G. Wilson
Download or read book Everyone Loves a Good Train Wreck written by Eric G. Wilson and published by Sarah Crichton Books. This book was released on 2012-02-14 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why can't we look away? Whether we admit it or not, we're fascinated by evil. Dark fantasies, morbid curiosities, Schadenfreude: As conventional wisdom has it, these are the symptoms of our wicked side, and we succumb to them at our own peril. But we're still compelled to look whenever we pass a grisly accident on the highway, and there's no slaking our thirst for gory entertainments like horror movies and police procedurals. What makes these spectacles so irresistible? In Everyone Loves a Good Train Wreck, the scholar Eric G. Wilson sets out to discover the source of our attraction to the caustic, drawing on the findings of biologists, sociologists, psychologists, anthropologists, philosophers, theologians, and artists. A professor of English literature and a lifelong student of the macabre, Wilson believes there's something nourishing in darkness. "To repress death is to lose the feeling of life," he writes. "A closeness to death discloses our most fertile energies." His examples are legion, and startling in their diversity. Citing everything from elephant graveyards and Susan Sontag's On Photography to the Tiger Woods sex scandal and Steel Magnolias, Wilson finds heartening truths wherever he confronts death. In Everyone Loves a Good Train Wreck, the perverse is never far from the sublime. The result is a powerful and delightfully provocative defense of what it means to be human—for better and for worse.

Book excerpt: Parks and Recreation actor and Making It co-host Nick Offerman shares his humorous fulminations on life, manliness, meat, and much more in this New York Times bestseller. Growing a perfect moustache, grilling red meat, wooing a woman—who better to deliver this tutelage than the always charming, always manly Nick Offerman, best known as Parks and Recreation’s Ron Swanson? Combining his trademark comic voice and very real expertise in woodworking—he runs his own woodshop—Paddle Your Own Canoe features tales from Offerman’s childhood in small-town Minooka, Illinois—“I grew up literally in the middle of a cornfield”—to his theater days in Chicago, beginnings as a carpenter/actor and the hilarious and magnificent seduction of his now-wife Megan Mullally. It also offers hard-bitten battle strategies in the arenas of manliness, love, style, religion, woodworking, and outdoor recreation, among many other savory entrees. A mix of amusing anecdotes, opinionated lessons and rants, sprinkled with offbeat gaiety, Paddle Your Own Canoe will not only tickle readers pink but may also rouse them to put down their smart phones, study a few sycamore leaves, and maybe even hand craft (and paddle) their own canoes.

Book excerpt: Detention is not the place where you're supposed to meet your next boyfriend, especially when he's Asher Boyd, known pothead and occasional criminal. But he makes good girl Sadie Brown feel something she hasn't really felt before - extraordinary. Seventeen-year-old Sadie Brown is a good girl from a good neighborhood who gets good grades and makes good choices. In the past, she's dabbled in making bad ones and ended up with an ex-boyfriend, a couple of bruises, and a year and a half of wasted time. Never again. Until detention, when she officially meets Asher Boyd, notorious pothead and occasional criminal. He's everything she shouldn't want in a potential boyfriend - irresponsible, unreliable, and frustrating - and everything she can't resist. After an impromptu makeout session in a supply closet at the end of detention, rumors follow Sadie into next week, and when people start making assumptions based on those rumors, she is thrust into her high school's hierarchy. Suddenly, everyone has an opinion on her sex life, and her reputation is tarnished for something she didn't even do. Worst of all, Asher isn't around much and doesn't seem to care when he is. But there's more to Asher than meets the eye, more than just the superficial stereotype he indulges in to meet low expectations, and the darkness no one sees is enough for Sadie to risk her reputation to be with him... If he's willing to take the chance on her, that is.
