Alcune montagne sono alte, altre difficili. Poche sono entrambe le cose.
Dopo mesi di preparativi e settimane di permanenza sulla montagna con il resto del team, il pomeriggio del 13 luglio 1977 Doug Scott e Chris Bonington raggiungono la cima dell’Ogre, sono i primi alpinisti in assoluto a conquistare quella vetta tra le più difficili al mondo. Un breve attimo di sosta per riprendere fiato, assaporare il successo e contemplare lo spettacolare panorama, e poi iniziano a muovere i primi passi per rientrare al campo prima che sia troppo tardi.
Sono esperti, i migliori esponenti di una nuova generazione di alpinisti britannici che sta conquistando il mondo, sono affiatati compagni di cordata. Ma Doug è anche stanco, il sole è appena tramontato, è buio. La giornata è stata calda, ma adesso cala il gelo, il vento ghiaccia tutto. Anche un rivolo di acqua di cui, durante la salita, non si era nemmeno accorto. Appoggia il piede, scivola, vola. E dopo un terrificante pendolo si arresta di schianto contro la roccia, entrambe le gambe rotte. Gli altri, Tut, Nick e Mo, li hanno visti e stanno arrivando, ma per aiutare il compagno anche Chris cade, fratturandosi le costole.
Inizia così l’odissea della discesa, una delle epopee alpinistiche più straordinarie di sempre. Bisogna tornare a casa. Se non sani, almeno salvi. Bisogna farcela. E ce la faranno, perché sono disperati, perché anche nel momento più buio riescono a non prendere troppo sul serio la loro situazione, perché sono amici. Perché sono uomini umili, gente modesta del nord dell’Inghilterra, con un'unica passione la montagna.

Download As PDF : La forma delle cose L'alfabeto della geometria Intersezioni Raccontare la matematica Italian Edition eBook Marco AndreattaOrientarsi nello spazio, percepire un oggetto attraverso la sua forma, minimizzare gli spostamenti sono abilità geometriche che tutti usiamo nel quotidiano. Platone faceva entrare nell’Accademia solo chi aveva dimestichezza con la geometria, una scienza che richiama questioni filosofiche ma che dà anche concreta risposta a tanti quesiti tecnologici. Dalla linea retta agli spazi che si curvano, i teoremi della geometria ci aiutano da sempre a rendere facile il difficile. Ma in che modo la mente umana esplora la forma delle cose? Un viaggio che da Euclide e dalla geometria elementare giunge a Bernhard Riemann e alle teorie contemporanee, che forniscono alla fisica gli strumenti per capire l’universo e tentare di formulare una “Teoria del Tutto”.

The Official ACT Prep Guide 201819 Edition Book + Bonus Online Content ACT Books Reviews
- This review is for the HARD COPY version.
I’ve been tutoring the ACT for over a decade, have scored perfectly on it as an adult, and have coached a student to a perfect score, as well as many others to perfect scores on individual sections. I run a Youtube channel offering free ACT / SAT prep and college advice (SupertutorTV) and also have created an online prep course for the ACT. In short, I know the ACT.
When it comes to ACT prep books, the number one advice I have for my students is to USE AUTHENTIC MATERIALS from the test maker. That means if you’re taking the ACT, and can afford nothing but one book, this is the number one resource I would recommend. The ACT test got a minor reboot in 2014 when ACT added probability items to the math section, reduced the number of science passages from 7 to 6, and added a dual reading passage section. The ACT has also revamped the essay a couple of times since 2014. This book reflects all those changes better than any previous books.
There are a few updates this book includes that the previous editions of the book don’t
1) A new, 4th test included in the book (awesome!). This is a recent test (form code 74C) that was administered in June 2017
2) Access to an online question “bank†instead of printable pdf versions of the “bonus†questions that came with older versions of this guide (2015-2016 and the latest 2016-2017 which has no date on the cover). (not awesome!). Each book includes a scratch off code, so best to purchase new, not used, if you want to take advantage of these online questions. As before, these include around 100 of each subject matter pulled from the Real ACT Prep guide that has since been taken out of print.
3) Essays that reflect the latest version of the essay prompt (previously, the question required students to integrate “multiple perspectives†or all three perspectives. The newer version of the prompt is reworded and broader, asking students to incorporate “at least one†other perspective; other versions of the prep guide may not include the correct prompts for the essay).
Why four stars then? Well, this update to last year’s guide has a few disappointments.
My number one complaint is the fact that the question bank is now online only. Having the ability to PRINT the bonus questions made them much more valuable, and this was possible with the older version of this same guide.
Studies have shown that students focus less when reading from screens and performance may be affected. Additionally, it’s best to prep using the same method you would use when actually taking the test. That makes your practice experience closer to your testing experience. Printing to paper gives students that experience. Doing questions in a question bank online doesn’t.
The other issue with the question bank is that it randomizes the order of the questions and passages. Though this may not matter for some sections, in the math it means it’s harder to tell which math questions should be “easy†and which ones “hard†so that students can more easily do the ones that are most applicable to them. In the past version the start of the packet was on the easy side and around question 40 the questions got harder, and then reset after question 50 and again after question 75. It wasn’t perfect, but easier to track than this mess of an online system, at least for tutors trying to assign the hardest questions to students, or students looking for streaks of hard questions.
Additionally, the OFFICIAL ACT PREP GUIDE (this book) and all versions of it borrows heavily from the previous book of ACT Tests pre 2014 changes called The Real ACT (CD) 3rd Edition (Official Act Prep Guide), particularly in the math sections (more on this below). That's kind of annoying, as it means you can't buy both books and get 9 tests. If you buy both you get more like 7 tests. I know the other one is out of print, but it would still be nice to be able to buy that book used and get even more tests to practice with in complete form.
Now let’s first discuss what this includes
1) Four “real†ACT tests.
The first three exams appear to be identical to the previous editions of this guide. I’ve noted the form codes these were sourced from in case you know of these past exams.
Test 1 (diagnostic) English, Reading, Science (Jun 2015 73C), Math (73C+10 random questions from The Real ACT Prep Guide exams, mix of exams, and a few originals),
Test 2 English, Reading, Science (Apr 2015 73G), Math (random questions from The Real ACT Prep Guide exams, mostly from Exam #2, and a few originals),
Test 3English (Test 5 from Real ACT Prep Guide), Reading, Science (Test 4 from Real ACT Prep Guide), Math (Many from test 4 from the Real ACT Prep Guide, some random from that Guide, plus a few 73G questions and a few originals.)
Test 4 June 2017 Code 74C, all sections
2) Essay prompts
All tests include a complete essay prompt; a fifth prompt is in the chapter on the essay, for five total prompts.
3) Chapters that review the basic content of each section and have some example questions
Though this might seem to be a great resource, advice from the test makers is rarely as good as advice from private tutors who write books. I’m probably biased (I’m a private tutor who is working on writing some ACT books), but even before I wrote books, I knew the best tips I found for my students weren’t from the test makers. Ideas like “read carefully and thoroughly," are terrible advice for some students who when doing so can’t even finish half of a section. Many students are better off FINISHING than reading everything carefully. True, the book also has pacing strategies, but they aren’t written based on people who are on the ground with students trying to help them exploit test weaknesses or maximize scores. Sure, in an ideal world we we be good little students and do everything the “right†way, but real test prep is about optimization, not being a “good student.†It’s about working within the constraints of the test and maximizing your ability to get questions right. The idea that some students are different and your strategy may be different from someone else’s isn’t really accounted for here in a clear way. The voice of the book feels more objective than insightful in its advice.
The biggest value of this book is the real tests, not the section advice. If you want test prep advice, get another book from an independent tutor. Still, content tips in the English and Math could be somewhat useful for those with no other resources or limited budgets.
ALSO Many of the “real†examples from these topic based chapters are part of fully released exams from prior years, such as 61C (the packet released free of charge in 2008-2009). As a result, the example material is not a huge boon for students, but actual a bit of a "spoiler" for anyone who digs up these old, free, released pdf tests online and wants to use them to practice full exams.
If you’re looking to maximize your access to REAL materials, here are your other options
1) Upgrade to the The Official ACT Prep Pack with 6 Full Practice Tests (4 in Official ACT Prep Guide + 2 Online) and get access to two online tests in addition to the four tests in the book. Practicing online, though, is not ideal if you’re taking this on paper. (See my note above) (ACT now offers a small percentage of test takers the opportunity to take the test on computers, but I don’t recommend doing so).
2) Get a copy of the The Real ACT (CD) 3rd Edition (Official Act Prep Guide)in addition to this book.
You’ll likely want to skip most of the math sections except for anecdotal practice (particularly tests 4 and 2 which show up heavily on the math section of the newer book), but other sections are useful. Know that the reading has no dual passages, and that the science has more passages but the same number of questions. Also, avoid English test #5, and Science and Reading test #4, as these are identical to test #3 in the Official Guide you would get from this page.
3) Find the previously released free exams that ACT.org has offered students from prior years before the test tweaks in 2014.
There is one free right now at ACT.org, and many sites have cataloged old editions of the Preparing for the ACT packet from past years. A quick online search for Free PDF ACT practice tests or "Preparing for the ACT" pdf should help you find some of these.
Overall
Get this for the tests (you can't beat real tests!)
Skip most of the chapter advice by topic (Math, Science, Reading, etc.) unless you can't afford more books or alternate options.
Online materials are ok but not perfect.
One final note I've also purchased the version. It is nearly illegible on the portions of the book that are the test; you can't zoom in on these pages at all so the print is so tiny it can't be read. Total waste of money. I do not recommend it at all. Previous versions on the were much better quality and were far more useable. I don't know why this one is so terrible. - I'm a Harvard grad, ACT perfect 36 scorer and professional test-prep tutor since 2002. Over the years I have coached my students to scores as high as 36.
The Official ACT Prep Guide, 2018-19 Edition is the same book as previous editions, such as the Official ACT Prep Guide 2018 and the Official ACT Prep Guide 2016-2017, other than the fact that it now includes a 4th paper test (the June 2017 ACT Form 74C) and some minor updates/revisions, most notably to the wording of the essay prompts in the Writing section of each exam. Yet this book continues to be the most essential preparation guide for the ACT, because it is the only source of official test questions—the practice ACTs in all other books are nothing more than subpar imitations of the real thing.
Below are my top 13 recommendations for ACT Preparation
1) Official ACT Practice Tests. You can access 4 official Practice Tests in the newest edition of the Official ACT Prep Guide, but you can also access many others for free online.
Make sure not only to take the tests, but to create an error log and review your mistakes in detail afterward. Keep in mind that all other sources of ACT practice questions are subpar (but sometimes necessary) imitations of the real thing.
Yes, the older tests are still helpful despite being (slightly) different and (slightly) easier than more recent ACTs. These older ACTs are still great for practice--just don't trust the scoring conversions.
2) College Panda ACT Math series
a) ACT Math Advanced Guide and Workbook The College Panda's ACT Math Advanced Guide and Workbook
b) ACT Math Workbook More Advanced Practice by Topic The College Panda's ACT Math Workbook More Advanced Practice By Topic
3) Erica Meltzer ACT Reading and English series
a) The Complete Guide to ACT English, 3rd Edition The Complete Guide to ACT English, 3rd Edition
b) The Complete Guide to ACT Reading, 2nd Edition The Complete Guide to ACT Reading, 2nd Edition
and her free SAT/ACT English punctuation rules
4) College Panda ACT English and Writing (Essay) books
a) ACT English Advanced Guide and Workbook The College Panda's ACT English Advanced Guide and Workbook
b) ACT Essay The Battle-tested Guide for ACT Writing The College Panda's ACT Essay The Battle-tested Guide for ACT Writing
5) Mighty Oak Guide to Mastering the 2016 Essay For the new (2016-) 36-point ACT Essay. Some of the advice is a tad outdated (the essay is back to being out of 12 points, for example, and the essay prompts have changed very slightly), but it’s still quite helpful Mighty Oak Guide to Mastering the 2016 ACT Essay For the new (2016-) 36-point ACT essayMighty Oak Guide to Mastering the 2016 ACT Essay For the new (2016-) 36-point ACT essay
6) Ultimate Guide to the Math ACT by Richard F Corn
7) Quantum ACT Prep free videos (Math only)
8) For the Love of ACT Science by Michael Cerro
9) Understanding the ACT Scientific Reasoning by Jerusha Richardson. Not as acclaimed (or as overrated) as FTLOAS but almost as good.
10) UWorld (free with code) adaptive online learning program.
11) Albert.io adaptive online learning program. This website is brand-new, but I’ve heard great things about the content with regard to the AP exams. If UWorld isn't enough, then it’s probably worth a shot for $39 for 10 months access, as opposed to Magoosh ($79 for just one month access).
12) The ACT Prep Black Book. This one is definitely not perfect. The author dispenses some advice that I don’t agree with, but it’s still helpful if you prefer to have detailed, written explanations of your ACT questions. Lots and lots of pages of strategy advice…not for the faint of heart.
13) ACT Academy (free) adaptive online learning program. This site is official and free, but full of silly videos and corporate-sponsored filler, and needs a lot of improvement. It’s a far cry from the quality of Khan Academy, after which it’s likely modeled, but at least it does include plenty of real ACT questions.
Honorable Mention Ivy Global ACT Guide (full disclosure I've used Ivy Global's SAT books extensively, and am a big fan of their detailed and thorough books with lots of practice, but haven't had time to try out IG's ACT book yet).
Unless otherwise noted above, the materials are paid materials. In some cases (Quantum ACT Prep, for example), there are free videos as well as paid videos.
I have ranked the videos lower than the books because I prefer learning from books and adaptive online learning programs to static videos. In general, I would caution against a video-heavy learning approach, which is tempting due to its ease/convenience, but often leads to low retention as a result of passive learning.

Questions, comments, suggestions? Let me know.
Best of luck with your ACT prep!
-Brian - The best book you can get for ACT prep. Written by the test makers, it is a must have to improve your score. I have be tutoring for the ACT for 15 years, this is the only book I will spend my money on.
- Honestly, I didn't use this myself. I bought it for my daughter and she told me to rate it a 5. She took the ACT and scored a 32, so we're very pleased. She did study hard for the test. But this book was money well spent.
- Absolutely awesome. Used in conjunction with the ACT Prep Black Book, my daughter's ACT score went from 23 to 29, scoring her a Platinum Presidential Scholarship at her university.
- The current 1-2 star reviews are being a bit unfair. They are complaining about the version. To be honest, I don't know why you would want tests in the kindle version anyway, you want to take the tests on paper as you would in the test room. This book is the same as the previous edition, but they added a completely new test. I am a self-employed full-time test prep tutor and certified teacher running up to ten years of experience. The CONTENT of the book is what I'm reviewing, and I love practice tests. The new practice test is refreshing, they are also keeping the price point the same as previously, thus increasing the overall value of the book.
- The book itself is great, offers the practice tests and explanation of answers which has been helpful for my daughter. I purchased this book NEW and when she got to one of the practice tests, there was writing on it, strategies written, and part of the test had answers chosen. So this was NOT a new book. I’m am passed the window to return it and the ACT is Saturday so that isn’t even practical. I never thought to thumb through the entire book to ensure the tests were not written on. Disappointed in for selling a USED product as NEW.

Download As PDF : Silver and Gold The Autobiography of Norman Hartnell VA Fashion Perspectives Norman Hartnell 9781851779666 BooksSir Norman Hartnell (1901–1979) was the star of London couture during the interwar years, gaining international fame as dressmaker to the British royal family. His autobiography, first published in 1955, tells the story of the creation of his couture house in 1923, his formal appointment as dressmaker to the royal family in 1935, and the most momentous commissions of his career Princess Elizabeth’s wedding gown in 1947 and her magnificent coronation dress six years later. Best known for romantic eveningwear shimmering with beads and embroidery, Hartnell is credited with reintroducing the crinoline to world fashion through his full-skirted designs for Queen Elizabeth. Silver and Gold describes an extraordinary life with elegance and panache.

"Norman Hartnell left Cambridge without a degree, intent on becoming a fashion designer. With the financial assistance of his father, and the practical assistance of his sister, he established his own house, and ultimately became dressmaker to Queen Elizabeth II, among other royal and noble ladies.
It's popular to sneer at Hartnell, to call his clothes "dowdy" and "frumpish", but that's really wrong. Much of his work, particularly his evening wear, could, to the contrary, be called "over-the-top", with embellishments of jewels, fur and heavy embroidery. Indeed, he is quoted as saying, "For me, simplicity is the death of the soul." While his daywear for the Queen has been deemed "matronly", one must not forget that, when she was young, it was common for young, married women to dress in an older style. And Hartnell also talks about the various constraints that exist when designing for royalty: the use of pale colors to stand out in a sea of people wearing darker colors, a design that allows for the wearing of Orders, the need to "set an example" (as with wartime restrictions). As he puts it in describing the choice of colors for Queen Mary's visits to bombed sites, "Black does not appear in the rainbow of hope."
In many ways, Hartnell put English fashion design on the map. Most people would be hard-pressed to name an English fashion designer before Hartnell. There is, of course, Charles Worth, but he made his name in Paris. After Hartnell, the names keep coming: Mary Quant, Zandra Rhodes, Vivienne Westwood and so on.
This memoir is a must for anyone interested in fashion history, whatever their opinions of Hartnell's designs."

--Critique littéraire et cinématographique, Roberto Mattos (à propos de Sans Laisser de Traces).
PIEGE MORTEL (Les Origines de Riley Paige -- Tome 3) est le livre N°3 de la nouvelle série de thrillers psychologiques de l'auteur à succès N°1 Blake Pierce, dont le best-seller gratuit Sans Laisser de Traces (Tome 1) a reçu plus de 1 000 critiques cinq étoiles.
Alors qu’un tueur en série, soupçonné d'utiliser un camping-car, piège et tue des femmes à travers le pays, le FBI, embarrassé, doit enfreindre le protocole et se tourner vers sa brillante recrue de 22 ans, Riley Paige.
Riley Paige est acceptée dans l'éreintante académie du FBI, et est déterminée à faire enfin profil bas et à travailler dur avec ses collègues. Mais il semble que le destin en ait décidé autrement, en effet, elle a été choisie pour aider ses mentors à traquer un tueur en série qui terrifie le pays. Riley se demande quel genre de tueur diabolique pourrait bien utiliser un camping-car pour attraper ses victimes ?
Et quelle sera sa prochaine destination ?
Riley n'a pas le droit à l’erreur dans ce jeu mortel du chat et de la souris, pas quand son propre avenir est en jeu, et lorsqu’elle est confrontée à un tueur qui pourrait bien être plus intelligent qu'elle.
Un thriller rempli d'action avec un suspens palpitant, PIEGE MORTEL est le 3e Tome d'une nouvelle série captivante qui vous donnera envie de tourner les pages jusqu'au bout de la nuit. Il ramène les lecteurs 20 ans en arrière, au commencement de la carrière de Riley, et il vient compléter parfaitement la série SANS LAISSER DE TRACES (Une Enquête de Riley Paige), qui comprend 14 livres.
Le Tome 4 de la série LES ORIGINES DE RILEY PAIGE sera bientôt disponible.

- Love this author and how she writes...Very easy to read book. Everything flows so naturally ..loved Aunt Charlotte..her devotion to her orphaned niece Barrie Anne... Willow the dog was great.... And baby Emerald was a big surprise.
I only wish there would be a sequal to see how they deal with Emerald's special gifts as sheet grows older. - Another hit! So sad that I just could not put this book down until I finished reading it. Now I'm at a loss as to what to read. A very enjoyable book, wonderful storyline, terrific writing!!!
- I fell into this book on page one and read it all in one day. The scenery and characters were so realistic. I found Will's character especially well draw, as I have known people exactly like him. The story leaves you with as many questions as answers....but maybe there will be a sequel....
- From the first page to the last, this book captured my attention completely. The story of Barrie Anne and her adventures never let me down. The characters are captivating and very realistic. I wanted the story to go on and on, and was sad when it ended. I highly recommend this book!
- You watch your characters develop. It is a slow but continuous draw back.It makes you think about your voices in life.
- Every good book!
- I really loved it, so I expected another tale that was 'Witchy.' This is instead as much a UFO/USO story as it is a witch story. The main magic involved is that the two main characters come from a family in which the women tend to have premonitions. It's a big part of the story, but it's not what gives the story its soul- instead,the story is about the relationships between these two women, and a wonderful dog named Willow. Dog lovers will love this tale, as Willow takes center stage repeatedly to show just how great a gift a good dog can be.
Charlotte, is an unconventional guardian with a secret that's dangerous in early twentieth century America. She raises Barrie, her orphaned niece alone. Barrie often craves a conventional life, and jumps to live the life of the wife of a soldier. That's not all that she'd hoped for, and tragedy after tragedy befall her as she struggles to make a simple life as a farmer, alone with her female pup, Willow.
One night, Willow and Barry see strange lights on the harbor, and after that, Barry's life, and her garden, will never be the same.
If you like strong female characters, generational tales and wiggly babies, cute hens, and pups, I think you'll like this. If you find the idea of Roswell, UFOs, or USOs intriguing, you'll probably like this. I loved it. I was captured from the first page and read it all in one sitting.
Update It's been weeks since I read this and I'm still thinking about the characters. I was looking through a seed catalog and the book came flooding back. I think a lot of this book appeals to me because of the homesteading aspect of it. It really made me identify with the main character. - The story centers on Barrie Ann Blythe, and her Aunt Charlotte who had raised her after the death of her parents. Aunt Charlotte had a couple of family secrets, the largest of which she shared with Barrie Ann. The women, and only the women, of their family had a way of knowing things that others did not. When Barrie Ann brought home a young man and announced that she was dropping out of college to marry him before he shipped out to fight in WWII, Aunt Charlotte knew two things, that the war was not going to end quickly and that the young man would break Barrie Ann's heart.
This story blends historical romance and paranormal skillfully as it jumps between plot lines a few years apart. The action is compelling enough to keep the reader turning pages to find out not just what would happen next but what had lead up to the 'current' events. The ending is rather open ended, suggesting that perhaps there will be more to the story of the women in the Blythe family.

Ebook Brilliant Brilliant Brilliant Brilliant Brilliant Audible Audio Edition Joel Golby Random House Audio Books
Download As PDF : Brilliant Brilliant Brilliant Brilliant Brilliant Audible Audio Edition Joel Golby Random House Audio BooksBy the popular Vice contributor, a collection of full-throated appreciations, elaborate theories, and unflinching recollections
Joel Golby's writing for Vice and The Guardian, with its wry observation and naked self-reflection, has brought him a wide and devoted following. Now, in his first book, he presents a blistering collection of new and newly expanded essays - including the achingly funny viral hit "Things You Only Know When Both Your Parents Are Dead." In this audiobook, he travels to Saudi Arabia, where he acts as a perplexed bystander at a camel pageant; offers a survival guide for the modern dinner party (i.e. how to tactfully escape at the first sign of an adult board game); and gets pitted head-to-head, again and again, with an unpredictable, unpitying subspecies of Londoner the landlord.
Through it all, he shows that no matter how cruel the misfortune, how absurd the circumstance, there's always the soft punch of a lesson tucked within. This is a book for anyone who overshares, overthinks, has ever felt lost or confused - and who wants to have a good laugh about it.

"I have read articles of Joel Golby's for a number of years now, but this collection gives his experience a new level of depth to the reader. Unfortunately I was in public for the entirety of "Things You Only Know When Both Your Parents Are Dead", which caused me to laugh hysterically and cry fat tears over the course of a few dozen pages."

Brilliant Brilliant Brilliant Brilliant Brilliant Audible Audio Edition Joel Golby Random House Audio Books Reviews
- With this wonderful collection of essays, Captain Golby rams the Titanic of polite society into the iceberg of taboo. His frank crudeness and naked honesty, paired with his British wit and knack for nihilism, will keep you laughing and entertained throughout. Definitely recommend this one to people who keep it real. Definitely don't recommend this one to people who eat dinner with more than one fork.
- Although there were a number of funny parts to this book I was very disappointed overall. It seemed to me that it was mostly about his experiences with drinking, either alone or with his mates. There are vague references to relationships but no details nor any names (I may have missed them). I was looking forward to reading this book but got very bored about half-way through when I realized I couldn't care less about the author's life, his mates, his mother, his father or anybody else in there. Brilliant? Nope, not brilliant.
- I have read articles of Joel Golby's for a number of years now, but this collection gives his experience a new level of depth to the reader. Unfortunately I was in public for the entirety of "Things You Only Know When Both Your Parents Are Dead", which caused me to laugh hysterically and cry fat tears over the course of a few dozen pages.
- Hilarious and a quick read! Because there are a bunch of short essays, there is probably one that fits your interests, even if your interests are wildly different from mine. Would definitely recommend if you need a little light reading
- It was offensive to me. Very coarse, boring, and NOT funny.
- A real cracker of a book, nice and chewy, good for reading on the bus, or the loo, or in bed, or just about anywhere.
- funny and with heart, brought me back to my younger days (i am of the same age as Joel Golby) and i really related.
- I truly didn't enjoy this book, even though I had high hopes for it.

Sparks of Phoenix Audible Audio Edition Najwa Zebian Andrews McMeel Publishing Books Reviews
- I am crying because this book spoke to the wounds in me that have been begging to heal itself. It spoke to the girl in me that needs nurturing from the woman in me. It spoke to my bones, to my veins, to my heart- all the places that have been craving love from all the wrong places- only to realise that love was at the core of my existence all along. I am my home. I am looking from my problems from the sky, and they do look a lot smaller now. Thank you Najwa. Thank you for sharing your journey- to help us heal. I recommend this book to anyone and everyone. Everyone has some sort of pain that needs acknowledgement.
