![]() ![]() Heartfelt and sexy, the stories of Amanda Lee Koe encompass a skewed world fraught with prestige anxiety, moral relativism, sexual frankness, and the improbable necessity of human connection. Rehash national icons: the truth about racial riot fodder-girl Maria Hertogh living out her days as a chambermaid in Lake Tahoe, a mirage of the Merlion as a ladyboy working Orchard Towers, and a high-stakes fantasy starring the still-suave lead of the 1990s TV hit serial The Unbeatables. Meet an over-the-hill Pop Yé-yé singer with a faulty heart, two conservative middle-aged women holding hands in the Galápagos, and the proprietor of a Laundromat with a penchant for Cantonese songs of heartbreak. Selected by The Business Times as one of the Top 10 English Singapore books from 1965–2015]. Longlisted for the Frank O’Connor International Short Story Award 2014]. Winner of the Singapore Literature Prize for Fiction 2014]. Winner of Best Fiction Title for Singapore Book Awards 2016]. ![]() ![]() ![]() The romance is at the heart of everything though, and these two were fire together – it’s a hot slow burn, with crackling chemistry and tons of sexual tension. It could certainly be read as a standalone if you really wanted to, but the community is integral to the story and the suspense element ties the books together. I also loved the neighbors aspect, and just how much this community bonds together. There was just something immensely compelling about this wounded and vulnerable hero he’s a genuinely good guy who is in a dark place, and it’s not until a fierce, fiery woman enters his life that he starts coming back into the light. ![]() It was great to be back in Knockemout – this sequel did NOT disappoint! I think I liked it better than the first one, and that was very tough competition. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() 'I was slipping into despair': Jane Fonda finds hope, purpose in climate change activismīook review: Ruth Ware brings chills with isolated locked door mystery 'One by One'īut nothing is what it seems: not the bank robber’s identity, or the toy gun that’s real, or the man in the bathroom wearing only underpants and a costume rabbit’s head, or that balcony view of the suicide bridge connecting several characters. Grandmotherly 87-year-old Estelle seems biased. Contemptuous Zara is a well-off bank manager who prefers economics to people and, not surprisingly, is depressed and lonely. Pregnant lesbian couple Julia and Ro are panicking at the thought of parenthood. Befuddled, with no hostage-case experience, they Google what to do.Ĭaptive in the apartment? Anna-Lena and Roger are a retired couple who flip apartments to keep their fraying marriage intact. Staking out the hostage stalemate are two comically bumbling local police officers –father-and-son team, Jim and Jack, both decent guys. Though unlike in “Ove,” no one here is lovable or even likable – not at first. ![]() The best-selling Swedish author of “ Beartown” and “ A Man Called Ove,” Backman is a master of writing delightful, insightful, soulful, character-driven narratives. ![]() Sobbing, the failed bank robber apologizes, “I’m having quite a complicated day here!” And so is everyone. This locked-in mystery takes place mostly inside that apartment as eight diverse, peculiar people – strangers checking out an apartment for sale – suddenly personify the “anxious” in the book’s title. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The Physical Lincoln upends the myth of a physically vibrant President, showing that, had he not been shot, Lincoln would have died from advanced cancer in less than a year, the result of MEN2B. It tragically took his mother and three of his sons at early ages (Eddie, Willie, and Tad), and it was killing Lincoln in his last years. ![]() ![]() In addition to producing Lincoln's remarkable body shape, MEN2B gave him a sad-looking face that, for more than 150 years, has been consistently misinterpreted as depression. The first book, The Physical Lincoln, offers a solution to one of the most enduring mysteries in American history: What made Abraham Lincoln so tall, thin, and less than attractive? What gave him his long limbs, large feet, high voice, odd lips, sluggish bowels, and astonishing joint flexibility? The never-before-proposed solution points to Lincoln's DNA and the rare genetic disorder called MEN2B. It is the ultimate guide to the startling health history of Abraham Lincoln and his family. The Physical Lincoln Complete combines two groundbreaking books - The Physical Lincoln and The Physical Lincoln Sourcebook - into one handy volume. ![]() ![]() Without You Audible Audiobook – Unabridged Marley Valentine (Author), Teddy Hamilton (Narrator), Marley Valentine is a master and you will find yourself so caught up in this amazing love story you won’t care or it won’t matter whether it’s MM or MF it’s just a tragically beautiful love story5().

The adaptation of the first few chapters from manga to prose came out very well. One of his teachers, Mizuki offers to help Naruto, but he seems to have more than just Naruto’s well being in mind. He fails to pass the final test and receive the headband embossed with a leaf and shows he’s graduated to being a ninja. His only problem is, he’s not any good at ninjitsu. He is a troublemaker and class clown, but at the same time wants to be one day recognized as the Hokage, greatest ninja and leader of the village. ![]() ![]() Naruto is an orphan growing up by himself in the ninja village of the Hidden Leaf. The first volume, Naruto: The Boy Ninja, takes the first chapter of the manga and adapts it not just into novelization, but also in terms of it’s audience. However, this title is written for teens, so Viz has taken it upon itself to make this title available to younger readers with a new line of chapter books only available in the US. Every time a new volume of the manga comes out, it hits the USA Today’s Top 150 Booklist, and is often the only manga to do so. Naruto is an immensely popular title both here and in Japan. By: Masashi Kishimoto Adapted by Tracey West ![]() ![]() ![]() Relationship pain is an unavoidable part of being human. It’s terrifying at times, and brave always. Vulnerability is openness to experiences, people and uncertainty. ![]() And here – here’s me.’ It builds trust, closeness and a sense of belonging. Relationships won’t thrive without it. Be careful – they’re precious.’ In return, it invites, ‘Oh, I see you there. Vulnerability is, ‘Here I am – my frayed edges, my secrets, my fears, my affection. Without vulnerability, relationships struggle. When we close it to one, we close it to all. When we close down our vulnerability we are shielded from hurt, but we are also shielded from love, intimacy and connection. ![]() We’ve protected ourselves from vulnerability and disallowed the surrender. We’ve toughened up, hardened up and protected ourselves from being hurt. Vulnerability is the driving force of connection. Yet, we’re seeing more loneliness, more depression, more broken relationships, more disconnection. The drive to connect is in all of us whether we acknowledge it or not. We live in tribes and families, work in groups, love as couples and thrive in friendships. The best part of being human is being able to connect with other humans. ![]() ![]() ![]() When time begins to run out, Lily and Sam have to challenge themselves, find the tiger, and make a difficult decision.Īt the start of the novel, Lily is what Sam calls a “QAG,” or a “Quiet Asian Girl.” Lily is so quiet and shy that she often feels invisible. ![]() Halmoni has been bottling up the hard stories of her past to stave off sadness, but now Halmoni is very sick, and the tiger will only heal her if Lily releases the bottled stories. When they arrive in Washington, a magical tiger straight out of Halmoni’s Korean folk tales shows up to strike up a deal with Lily, but the stakes are high. This is the situation that 12-year-old Lily finds herself in when she, her mother, and her sister Sam move from California to Washington state to live with Lily’s sick halmoni (grandmother). What would you do if you met a magical tiger? ![]() ![]() ![]() The concept of silver-working is as unique as it is fascinating it took me a while to properly understand it, but by the time Robin said "Míngbai" the second time around, I had figured it out. Robin Swift is a well-developed character who anyone would root for, and his long-held beliefs changed tentatively enough to be convincing. With that preface aside, I will begin with the good: Babel is a gripping read that isn't at all easy to put down. Her extensive research and distinct viewpoint have gone into the writing of every page and the creation of every character it is impossible to review the book without also commenting on its author's motivations-or at least as much of those as carried across. By writing something so personal under the guise of something as commercial as the genre of historical fantasy, Kuang runs the risk of having the critique of her book turn into a critique of her. Kuang said of her latest release that it was "a love letter and breakup letter to Oxford." It deals with what she learned through the course of her studies-including the nature of the white academy, and how its promoted knowledge begot and was begotten by imperialism-and presents it in the format of fiction set in the very university Kuang speaks about and against. ![]() |
