When Time Stopped is a moving account of the Neumann family’s life before, during, and after the Holocaust. In it, Ariana Neumann describes growing up in privilege in Caracas, Venezuela, and stumbling on clues that hinted at her father’s dark, secretive past. The clues eventually led her to a decade-long, worldwide search for the missing pieces of a family history that key players were unwilling to talk about. What follows is a spell-binding account of a family caught up in what is perhaps the worst evil of the last century, the lucky breaks and unfortunate endings it encountered, the scars that remained, and the attempts it made to heal and cope with the trauma.DISCLAIMER: This book is intended as a companion to, not a replacement for, When Time Stopped.

Background on Craig GroeschelAbout the Original Book:
Groeschel’s Dangerous Prayers is a sobering reminder that safe, comfortable prayers don’t honor or move God. Christ calls his followers to a life of faith and courage, so prayers–if they are to have any impact at all–have to be personal and bold. They have to come from an open and vulnerable place, and they have to ask God for more than his blessings, guidance, and peace. Anyone wondering why their prayers go unanswered and anyone who wants their prayers to transform their life and the world will find this book in invaluable guide.DISCLAIMER: This book is intended as a companion to, not a replacement for, Dangerous Prayers.

S. Lewis, the beloved author of the Chronicles of Narnia series, Mere Christianity, The Screwtape Letters, and other revered classics.

- On Writing for Children
- On Writing Science Fiction
- On Christian Writing
- On Writing Persuasively
- On Other Writers

A window into the mind of one of the greatest public intellectuals of the twentieth century–a gifted writer whose influence and insights remain relevant six decades after his death–this engaging collection reveals not only why Lewis loved the written word, but what it means to “gladly teach” the art of writing, so that wise readers can “gladly learn.”

Yet for fourThe remarkable story of a small, makeshift library in the town of Daraya, and the people who found hope and humanity in its books during a four-year siege.... Read moreDaraya lies on the fringe of Damascus, just southwest of the Syrian capital. Yet for four years it lived in another world. Besieged by government forces early in the Syrian Civil War, its people were deprived of food, bombarded by heavy artillery, and under the constant fire of snipers. But deep beneath this scene of frightening devastation lay a hidden library. While the streets above echoed with shelling and rifle fire, the secret world below was a haven of books.
Long rows of well-thumbed volumes lined almost every wall: bloated editions with grand leather covers, pocket-sized guides to Syrian poetry, and no-nonsense reference books, all arranged in well-ordered lines. But this precious horde was not bought from publishers or loaned by other libraries–they were the books salvaged and scavenged at great personal risk from the doomed city above.
The story of this extraordinary place and the people who found purpose and refuge in it is one of hope, human resilience, and above all, the timeless, universal love of literature and the compassion and wisdom it fosters.

Background on Brian GreeneAbout the Original Book:
We get up every day and make all kinds of choices, often believing that we are doing what’s best for our future. But what does the future truly hold for humanity and the greater universe? Brian Greene’s latest book, Until the End of Time, is an insightful scientific exploration of the inevitability of death and decay. He presents proof that everything that lives in the universe will ultimately be destroyed, whether through natural death or spectacular cataclysm. We know that our lives are fleeting, and our daily endeavors are but vain attempts at achieving a measure of immortality. Therefore, if all life will end, the only thing that makes sense is to find meaning within ourselves and in the present moment.DISCLAIMER: This book is intended as a companion to, not a replacement for, Until the End of Time.

“The journey began on a gurney,” writes Michael Perry, describing the debilitating kidney stone that led him to discover the essays of Michel de Montaigne. Reading the philosopher in a manner he equates to chickens pecking at scraps–including those eye-blinking moments when the bird gobbles something too big to swallow–Perry attempts to learn what he can (good and bad) about himself as compared to a long-dead French nobleman who began speaking Latin at the age of two, went to college instead of kindergarten, worked for kings, and once had an audience with the pope. Perry “matriculated as a barn-booted bumpkin who still marks a second-place finish in the sixth-grade spelling bee as an intellectual pinnacle … and once said hello to Merle Haggard on a golf cart.”
Written in a spirit of exploration rather than declaration, Montaigne in Barn Boots is a down-to-earth (how do you pronounce that last name?) look into the ideas of a philosopher “ensconced in a castle tower overlooking his vineyard,” channeled by a Midwestern American writing “in a room above the garage overlooking a defunct pig pen.” Whether grabbing an electrified fence, fighting fires, failing to fix a truck, or feeding chickens, Perry draws on each experience to explore subjects as diverse as faith, race, sex, aromatherapy, and Prince. But he also champions academics and aesthetics, in a book that ultimately emerges as a sincere, unflinching look at the vital need to be a better person and citizen.

A revelatory narrative of the intersecting lives and works of revered authors Virginia Woolf, T. S. Eliot, E. M. Forster and D. H. Lawrence during 1922, the birth year of modernism
The World Broke in Two tells the fascinating story of the intellectual and personal journeys four legendary writers, Virginia Woolf, T. S. Eliot, E. M. Forster, and D. H. Lawrence, make over the course of one pivotal year. As 1922 begins, all four are literally at a loss for words, confronting an uncertain creative future despite success in the past. The literary ground is shifting, as Ulysses is published in February and Proust’s In Search of Lost Time begins to be published in England in the autumn. Yet, dismal as their prospects seemed in January, by the end of the year Woolf has started Mrs. Dalloway, Forster has, for the first time in nearly a decade, returned to work on the novel that will become A Passage to India, Lawrence has written Kangaroo, his unjustly neglected and most autobiographical novel, and Eliot has finished–and published to acclaim–“The Waste Land.”
As Willa Cather put it, “The world broke in two in 1922 or thereabouts,” and what these writers were struggling with that year was in fact the invention of modernism. Based on original research, Bill Goldstein’s The World Broke in Two captures both the literary breakthroughs and the intense personal dramas of these beloved writers as they strive for greatness.

They remove books that patrons no longer check out, and they put back books they treasure. Annie Spence, who has a decade of experience as a Midwestern librarian, does this not only at her Michigan library but also at home, for her neighbors, at cocktail parties-everywhere. In Dear Fahrenheit 451, she addresses those books directly. We read her love letters to The Goldfinch and Matilda as well as her snarky break-ups with Fifty Shades of Grey and Dear John. Her notes to The Virgin Suicides and The Time Traveler’s Wife feel like classics that are sure to strike a powerful chord. Through the lens of the books in her life, Annie comments on feminism, culture, health, poverty, childhood aspirations, and more. Hilarious, compassionate, and wise, Dear Fahrenheit 451 is the consummate book-lover’s birthday present, stocking stuffer, holiday gift, and all-purpose humor book.

It is a call to action for all of America–and the world–to realize how poisonous alcohol is, and just how much it is truly affecting our lives. Whitker’s personal story drives a moving narrative from addiction to recovery, but more than that, she creates an alternative path to holistic healing. She believes AA isn’t the answer for most, that no one is really an alcoholic, and that the stigma surrounding alcoholism should and can be lifted. She believes in a world, much like the post-cigarette world we live in today, where the majority of people choose a sober life, not because they are addicts, but because they believe in healthier, more fulfilled living. Through her work, she inspires and creates an easy-to-follow path for anyone to join her.DISCLAIMER: This book is intended as a companion to, not a replacement for, Quit Like a Woman Start Publishing Notes is wholly responsible for this content and is not associated with the original author in any way.

Kurt Vonnegut was twenty years old when he enlisted in the United States Army. Less than two years later, he was captured by the Germans in the single deadliest US engagement of the war, the Battle of the Bulge. He was taken to a POW camp, then transferred to a work camp near Dresden, and held in a slaughterhouse called Schlachthof Funf where he survived the horrific firebombing that killed thousands and destroyed the city.
To the millions of fans of Vonnegut’s great novel Slaughterhouse-Five, these details are familiar. They’re told by the book’s author/narrator, and experienced by his enduring character Billy Pilgrim, a war veteran who “has come unstuck in time.” Writing during the tumultuous days of the Vietnam conflict, with the novel, Vonnegut had, after more than two decades of struggle, taken trauma and created a work of art, one that still resonates today.
In The Writer’s Crusade, author Tom Roston examines the connection between Vonnegut’s life and Slaughterhouse-Five through his work, his personal history, and discarded drafts of the novel, as well as original interviews with the writer’s family, friends, scholars, psychologists, and other novelists including Karl Marlantes, Kevin Powers, and Tim O’Brien. The Writer’s Crusade is a literary and biographical journey that probes fundamental questions about trauma, creativity, and the power of storytelling.

Jenny Offill’s third novel follows the thoughts of librian Lizzie Benson as she deals with raising a family, helping her brother overcome addiction, and preparing for the end of the world. In Offill’s signature style of disjointed autofiction, she takes the reader on a journey through the mind of a woman obsessed with doomsday preparation in a world ever threatened by climate change and divisive politics. What Does this Start Publishing Notes’ Summary, Analysis, and Review Include? Summary of the original book Easily digestible takeaways distilling the main themes A guide to the key characters throughout the book Discussion of the external forces driving Offill’s work In-depth Editorial Review & Analysis Background on Jenny Offill About the Original Book: Weather is an unconventional novel that uses its broken, disparate structure to capture the current American zeitgeist in a spectacular way. Despite its anxiety-driven narrative about the end of the world (whether due to climate change or the rapture), the book is quite humorous as Lizzie relays quick quips and anecdotes throughout, delving often into the farcical and absurd. It is both darkly funny and sardonic as well as absurdly light at other times. A must-read for anyone who has felt lost or disconnected in the last few years of political turmoil, Offill delves into not only the broader threat of climate change, but life, family, privilege, religion, and technology, among other things.

The Claire Donovan, editor-in-chief of the most successful romance publishing company in the country, hasYou’ve Got Mail meets The Proposal—this romance is one for the books.
Savannah Cade’s dreams are coming true. The Claire Donovan, editor-in-chief of the most successful romance publishing company in the country, has requested to see the manuscript Savannah’s been secretly writing. The only problem: she’s an editor for a different company, and their philosophy is only highbrow works are worth printing and romance should be reserved for the lowest level of Dante’s inferno.
But when Savannah drops her manuscript during a staff meeting and nearly exposes herself to the whole company—including William Pennington, the new boss and son of the romance-despising CEO herself—she has no choice but to hide the manuscript in a hidden room.
When she returns, she’s dismayed to discover that someone has not only been in her hidden nook but has written notes in the margins—quite critical ones. But when Claire’s own reaction turns out to be nearly identical to the scribbled remarks, and worse, Claire announces that Savannah has six weeks to resubmit before she retires, Savannah finds herself forced to seek the help of the shadowy editor after all.
As their notes back and forth start to fill up the pages, however, Savannah finds him not just becoming pivotal to her work but her life. There’s no doubt about it: she’s falling for her mystery editor. If she only knew who he was.
“Meet Me in the Margins is a delightfully charming jewel of a book that fans of romantic comedy won’t be able to put down!” — Kristy Woodson Harvey, New York Times bestselling author of Under the Southern Sky

NadiaThe streets of Cairo make strange music: the echoing calls to prayer, the raging insults hurled between drivers, the steady crescendo of horns honking, the shouts of street vendors, the television sets and radios blaring from every sidewalk. Nadia Wassef knows this song by heart. In 2002, with her sister, Hind, and their friend, Nihal, she founded Diwan, a fiercely independent bookstore. They were three young women with no business degrees, no formal training, and nothing to lose. At the time, nothing like Diwan existed in Egypt. Culture was languishing under government mismanagement, and books were considered a luxury, not a necessity. Ten years later, Diwan had become a rousing success, with ten locations, 150 employees, and a fervent fan base. Frank, fresh, and very funny, Nadia Wassef’s memoir tells the story of this journey. Its eclectic cast of characters features Diwan’s impassioned regulars, like the demanding Dr. Medhat; Samir, the driver with CEO aspirations; meditative and mythical Nihal; silent but deadly Hind; dictatorial and exacting Nadia, a self-proclaimed bitch to work with; and the many people, mostly men, who said Diwan would never work. Shelf Life is a portrait of a country hurtling toward revolution, a feminist rallying cry, and an unapologetic crash course in running a business under the law of entropy. Above all, it is a celebration of the power of words to bring us home.

Using examples from works by Graham Greene, Umberto Eco, and others (and even the movie Groundhog Day), Bayard examines the many kinds of “non-reading” (forgotten books, books discussed by others, books we’ve skimmed briefly) and the many potentially nightmarish situations in which we are called upon to discuss our reading with others.
The book urges everyone who’s ever felt guilty about missing some of the great books to consider what reading means, how we absorb books as a part of ourselves, and why we spend so much time talking about what we have, or haven’t, read.

Parents and teachers assume that boys will find a way to figure out the details for themselves. And they often do, with drastic results. In Peggy Orenstein’s Boys and Sex, she spends two years interviewing boys from all over the country about their sexual experiences and perspectives. Surprisingly enough, these boys open up about their sexual insecurities, emotions, and performance. They also talk about their sexual misconduct, porn, racism, and even male rape.
