Hardback. Etat : Good. Funny, sad, and smart . . . Part wacky road novel, part romantic comedy, McAllister's debut flies along yet reaches deep. --Stewart O'Nan, author of West of Sunset For Hunter Cady, meeting Kaitlyn is the greatest thing that has ever happened to him. Whereas he had spent most of his days accomplishing very little, now his life has a purpose. Smart, funny, and one of a kind, Kait is somehow charmed by Hunter's awkwardness and droll humor, and her love gives him reason to want to be a better man. And then, suddenly, Kait is gone, her death as unexpected as the happiness she had brought to Hunter. Numb with grief, he stumbles forward in the only way he knows how: by running away. He heads due west from his Philadelphia home, taking Kait's ashes with him. Kait and Hunter had always meant to travel. Now, with no real plan in mind, Hunter is swept into the adventures of fellow travelers on the road, among them a renegade Renaissance Faire worker; a boisterous yet sympathetic troop of bachelorettes; a Midwest couple and Elvis, their pet parrot; and an older man on an endless cross-country journey in search of a wife who walked out on him many years before. Along the way readers get glimpses of Hunter and Kait's lovely, flawed, and very real marriage, and the strength Hunter draws from it, even when contemplating a future without it. And each encounter, in its own peculiar way, teaches him what it means to be a husband and what it takes to be a man. Written in the spirit of Jonathan Tropper and Matthew Quick, with poignant insight and wry humor, The Young Widower's Handbook is a testament to the enduring power of love.…

Hardback. Etat : Good. "What Men Want to Say to Women (But Can't) serves as a wake-up call for women to finally understand men. It blows the lid off the lies Americans have been sold about men and masculinity and helps modern women feel the kind of compassion and respect for men that most Americans used to share. Denise McAllister is a bold writer, which is precisely what this subject needs."--Suzanne Venker, Author of The Alpha Female's Guide to Men & Marriage No matter one's political persuasion, most of us agree there's something deeply wrong in America today. Conflict has reached a fever pitch as our nation has become alarmingly polarized in the political arena. Many look to politicians and public policies for solutions, but journalist Andrew Breitbart rightly said that politics couldn't be fixed if culture is ignored, because "politics is downstream from culture." McAllister would take this observation a step further--politics might be downstream from culture, but culture is downstream from relationships. If we don't focus on the personal building blocks of society, we will fail to fix problems in culture and the politics that flow from it. If relationships are sick or broken--especially those between men and women--then everything else is affected. If there's little love, respect, and trust there, you won't find it anywhere else. Men are tired of being dumped on. They have a lot to say to women about sex, equality in the workplace, raising boys, and the lie of "toxic masculinity," but modern feminism and a politically correct culture have silenced them. This "war on men" has disrupted relationships and caused men to question their place in American society. "Misogyny," "male privilege," and "the Patriarchy" are buzzwords that shut men down. Some are so frustrated they've given up entirely--"Who needs women if all they're going to do is use you and treat you like garbage?" Anger, separation, and simply giving up aren't solutions to a festering problem. Instead, we need to heal relationships by learning to respect the designed purposes of masculinity and femininity. For this to happen, women will need to hear some hard truths about themselves and those they love. In What Men Want to Say to Women (But Can't), cultural commentator and New York Times bestselling author Denise McAllister speaks to women on men's behalf--exposing the lies of modern feminism and offering insights on how to rebuild broken relationships in the workplace, at home, and in the bedroom. Here's a sneak peek at a few things men would like to say to women, but can't: "When I look at your cleavage, it doesn't mean I want to rape you." "Stop complaining about equal pay when you don't do equal work." "Children need their father--stop shutting men out of the picture because you think you do everything better." "I will teach my son to compete--now go toss that participation trophy in the trash!" "A triumph of compassion, insight, and good sense. Denise McAllister doesn't just want to fix how men and women talk to each other. She wants to heal a fraying holy sacrament. Read this book to save your marriage--or to find one." --Milo Yiannopoulos  &nbsp.…

The other stuffed animals help Blue Rabbit search the house, but they find only a photograph: no sign of the boy at all. Finally, nearly inconsolable, Blue Rabbit hides away in the bed to cry. Then suddenly an eye peeks under the covers and it is Boy Since he is browner and his clothes have shrunk, Blue Rabbit assumes that he must have been left out in the garden in the rain.

Paperback. Etat : Good. In this meditative and lyrical collection, Tom McAllister challenges himself to write a short essay for every year he's been alive. With each piece strictly limited to a maximum of 1,500 words, these 42 essays move fluidly through time, taking poetic leaps and ending up in places the reader does not expect. Funny, insightful, and open-hearted, It All Felt Impossible aims to tell the story of McAllister's life through brief glimpses, anecdotes, and fragments that radiate outward and grapple with his place in the culture at large. In the span of these essays, McAllister witnesses a monorail crash at a zoo, survives a tornado, plays youth sports for tyrannical coaches, grieves for dead parents, learns how to ride a bike as an adult, works long shifts making cheesesteaks, and more. Each annual offering is a search for meaning and connection, chronicled by an engaging and honest voice. A testament to the power of creative constraints and finding innovative ways to tell one's story, It All Felt Impossible: 42 Years in 42 Essays is a compelling document of an idiosyncratic human existence that volleys so skillfully between the mundane and the profound that readers will find themselves marveling at these essays long after they have read them.…
