How To Complete One Book In One Day?

The problem is many of us don’t have time to commit time to reading. “I don’t have time for reading” is probably your only excuse. But you can change that. You don’t have to spend a whole month reading a single book. Just...   ..      Start with the author. Who wrote the book? Read his or her bio. If you can find a brief interview or article online about the author, read that quickly. It will give you a sense of the person’s bias and perspective. Read the title, the subtitle, the front flap, and the table of contents. What’s the big-picture argument of the book? How is that argument laid out? By now, you could probably describe the main idea of the book to someone who hasn’t read it.     Read the introduction and the conclusion. The author makes their case in the opening and closing argument of the book. Read these two sections word for word but quickly. You already have a general sense of where the author is going, and thes...

Overruled by Emma Chase (Book Review)

Image
As a DC defense attorney, Stanton Shaw keeps his head cool, his questions sharp, and his arguments irrefutable. They don’t call him the Jury Charmer for nothing – with his southern drawl, disarming smile and captivating green eyes – he’s a hard man to say no to. Men want to be him and women want to be thoroughly cross examined by him.  Stanton’s a man with a plan. And for a while, life was going according to that plan. Until the day he receives an invitation to the wedding of his high school sweetheart and mother of his beloved ten-year old daughter. Jenny is getting married — to someone who isn’t him. That's definitely not part of the plan. Sofia Santos is a city raised, no-nonsense litigator who plans to become the most revered criminal defense attorney in the country. She doesn’t have time for relationships or distractions. But when Stanton, her "friend with mind-blowing benefits" begs for help, she finds herself out of her element, out of her depth, and ob...

Quotes of On the Fence by Kasie West

Image
“Sometimes we expect more that people are capable of giving at the moment”  *** “We can't let boys define how we feel about ourselves. You have to know who you are before you should let any boy worth anything in.” *** “Hey guys,' I said. 'Don't be idiots. This is Evan. Evan, the angry-looking one is Jerom, the constipated-looking one is Nathan, and the goofball on the right is Gage.' Gage laughed. 'Constipated, Nathan? We said to look fierce.” *** “I don’t know how to get over it.” “You can only go through it.” *** “I knew why I cared. Why this mattered so much. Why his opinion was the only thing that mattered.

Book Summary : Meagan Brothers - Wierd Girl and What's his Name

Image
This fresh LGBT YA novel speaks to anyone who has ever felt unwanted and alone. In the tiny podunk town of Hawthorne, North Carolina, seventeen-year-old geeks Lula and Rory share everything - sci-fi and fantasy fandom, Friday night binge-watching of old X-Files episodes, and that feeling that they don't quite fit in. Lula knows she and Rory have no secrets from each other; after all, he came out to her years ago, and she's shared with him her 'sacred texts" - the acting books her mother left behind after she walked out of Lula's life. But then Lula discovers that Rory - her Rory, who maybe she's secretly had feelings for - has not only tried out for the Hawthorne football team without telling her, but has also been having an affair with his middle-aged divorcee boss. With their friendship disrupted, Lula begins to question her identity and her own sexual orientation, and she runs away in the middle of the night on a journey to find her mo...
