[siathens]

Someone told me last Thursday to read this book.

Paperback copy comes out April 17th.

I only see a kindle version but I don't have a kindle and not interested in having one.

Thanks heaps! Gotta go back to the bookstore today!

..and yeah, kindle, not my thing too.

[siathens]

the writing of some scenes..kinda amateurish but the story is different and interesting

I should go check it out then. It's getting more and more intriguing. I have heard it's something that was written out of fandom by a fan (of the Twilight series, or so I think) that probably is why the writing is amateurish (?)

AN INVISIBLE THREAD - LAURA SCHROFF and ALEX TRESNIOWSKI



THIS IS THE TRUE STORY of the unlikely friendship between Laura Schroff and Maurice Macyzk, two people from vastly different worlds who lived just two blocks apart in high-flying 1980's Manhattan. In the course of their many meetings Laura learned about Maurice's abusive father and drug-addicted mother, about his drug-dealing unles and knife-wielding grandmother, about the many filthy shelters and welfare hotels he had called home in the course of his short life. She discovered how Maurice's turbulent childhood echoed her own in Long Island, where her father's violent alcoholic tirades wreaked havoc on the family.

Laura and Maurice spent their time together doing simple things --- baking cookies, setting a table, trimming a Christmas tree - exposing Maurice to a way of life he didn't know existed and allowing him, for the first time ever, to dream of a better future than what he knew. Laura, herself caught up in the ever-present crush schedules and ambition, began to discover valuable lessons about the true meaning of friendship, courage, perseverance, and love and was finally able to come to terms with her own history of family chaos and violence.

An Invisible Thread tells the parallel stories of Laura and Maurice and how their lives were fated to converge just around the corner from Broadway. It describes the poignant meetings through which they built a lasting trust and learned the simple things that really matter. most of all, this is a book about how, if we learn to let go of fears and burdens and expectations, we can find ourselves plunged into the sweet, unplanned blessings of life.

THE DIARIES OF ADAM AND EVE - MARK TWAIN



With his trademark charm and wit, Mark Twain (1835-1910) tells the Garden of Eden story in the first person, allegedly deciphering the newly discovered diaries of the legendary father and mother of the human race. In Twain's "translation" Adam comes across as the original couch potato, grumpily uninterested at first in his new femlae companion who keeps pestering him with her all-too-innovative ideas. eve, by contrast, is the talkative, ever-curious experimenter whose inquisitive nature prompts her to name all the animals in the garden and leads her to the discovery of fire, among other thins.

This is a funny and touching retelling of the age-old myth, full of Twain's sarcastic humor, incisive intelligence, and subtle touches of pathos for the foibles of human nature.

THE HOUSE AT POOH CORNER - A.A. MILNE



"Pooh, promise you won't forget about me ever. Not even when I'm a hundred."
"How old shall I be then?"
"Ninety-nine."

Winnie-the-Pooh already has one wonderful book about himself and his friends. So we are fortunate indeed that A.A. Milne thought to provide us with this delightful companion volume.

Here you will rediscover all the characters you met in Winnie-the-Pooh: Christopher Robin, Eeyore, Owl, Piglet, Kanga, tiny Roo, and, of course, Pooh himself. Joining them is the thoroughly bouncy and lovable Tigger, who leads the rest into some very colorful adventures.

Christopher Robin is not yet a hundred , nor is Pooh ninety-nine. But we are sure to remember them, even when they are.

It started well enough but ended abruptly and the writing went downhill after that.
Such a shame.
