Archives: Book Excerpts 2016


Picture
Excerpt from: The Best Diet Book Ever: The Zen of Losing Weight (Zen Arts Press), written by Dr. Joseph Parent: This groundbreaking book offers a fresh new perspective on the weight-loss journey. The tools in this book will empower you to fulfill the goals of the best diet program there is - your own. Poor decisions make you gain weight and good choices enable you to lose weight. Your brain will respond to the changes you make, and your body will, too.
Picture
Excerpt from: Before Romeo & Juliet (Online), written by Emily Dodi and Linda Secondari: Before Romeo and Juliet is a serialized work of fiction based on Shakespeare's classic "Romeo and Juliet." The story of the Capulets and Montagues begins long before the infamous feud first draws blood. It begins in an abbey in the foothills of the Alps, where the young Caterina and Maria Grazia (the mothers of Romeo and Juliet) meet as children. Read as the tale unfolds. New chapters published weekly.

Picture
Excerpt from: The Flow METHOD: 40 Days to Total Life Transformation (Outskirts Press), written by Tara Meyer-Robson: The Flow Method helps people “re-tune” their lives by pinpointing negative patterns (emotional, physical and psychological) and reprogramming them to gain control of their life. Your negative, unconscious beliefs are like the programmed favorites on your radio, and it's time to re-tune them.
Picture
Excerpt from: The Life She Wants (MIRA Books), written by New York Times bestselling author Robyn Carr: This book is about women, friendship and the complex path to happiness. Starting over isn't easy, but Emma is determined to escape the burden of her husband's crimes, find forgiveness and claim the life she wants.

Picture
Excerpt from: Cracked (Simon Pulse), written by K. M. Walton: This book explores the before and after of a teen who tries to commit suicide after being bullied relentlessly for years. It also explores the motivation behind the bully and offers a message to those involved in bullying situations - whether victim or perpetrator.
Picture
Excerpt from: Drive, an original play written by Emily Dodi: Drive centers around two women at midlife crossroads, struggling to take the next step. This play premiered at Company of Angels in Los Angeles.

Picture

Living with Nonverbal Learning Disability
(Jessica Kingsley Publishers)
