*"For fans of Patricia Lockwood’s No One Is Talking About This (2021). An off-kilter, hauntingly hilarious debut novel." —Kirkus Reviews (starred review) "[A] bonkers story . . . Despite the sobering material, this is a hoot." —Publishers Weekly In a pre-apocalyptic world not unlike our own, a young Instagram poet starts an affair with a California billionaire who's promised a time machine that will make everything normal again—whatever that means. Everyone knows something’s off, but nobody can agree on just what it is. Maybe it’s the weather; maybe everyone’s just so damn sensitive these days. Or maybe it’s because the animals of the world have finally had enough, besieging towns and cities and terrorizing their human residents. Jenlena and her best friend Daphne are two humanities grads in their early 20s, trying to find their way in a society that has just eradicated all animals for the safety of humanity. In the post-fauna world, Jenlena transforms from an aspiring poet to a gig worker, capitalizing on other people’s grief by selling house plants that have come to replace pets and cosplaying as dogs for pay. Meanwhile Daphne, a once-promising student, flounders in a deep depression, smoking weed and ditching work to hang out with her once famous, now canceled boyfriend. When Jenlena meets the California billionaire Roderick Maeve, and the two become romantically entangled, she is exposed to a new understanding of wealth, power, and the gender economy—just as the world hurtles toward its alleged salvation. Marked with Frankie Barnet’s poignant intelligence and sly sense of humor, Mood Swings is a stand-out debut novel that imagines with pitch-perfect absurdity what comes after life as we know it.

Sugar Is Not Love Do you have a smart, creative, loving child who is also cranky, inattentive, and sometimes downright obnoxious? If you’ve written off this negative behavior as “typical” for your child’s age—whether toddler or teen—stop and think: Does your child have a taste for soda, sugary breakfast cereals, and treats like candy and cookies? Does she eat regularly scheduled meals or skip them? What, exactly, does he drink and snack on throughout the day? Your child’s behavior may be linked to diet—specifically to the sugar in obvious sources like sweets and soda and to hidden sugars that lurk in many foods, fruit-based drinks, and “healthy” snacks like granola bars. And if your son or daughter is sugar sensitive, misbehavior and moodiness can be aggravated by missed or late meals and junk foods. Now, bestselling author Kathleen DesMaisons offers you a workable solution for getting back your child by changing his diet—without creating a sense of deprivation, without setting unrealistic goals, and without turning sugar into “forbidden fruit.” This book offers: • A step-by-step program, backed by years of research, for gradually improving the food your child eats—you and your whole family will benefit! • Tips for navigating the sugar-laden world of birthday parties, holidays, and school cafeterias • Ways to incorporate healthy snacking and regular mealtimes into your child’s day, including suggestions for meals and snacks, plus recipes Little Sugar Addicts isn’t about strange foods, dramatic lifestyle changes, or complicated menus—just support, guidance, and real-life suggestions from other parents that work. It will help you make the connection between the addictive qualities of sugar and negative behavior and offer a healthy solution you and your whole family can live with.

Genre: Fiction
ISBN:

This book based on 14 Chapters insights into how planets affect our lives. It is for all readers over the age of 12 and requires no prior knowledge of the subject matter. It deals with the concept that every moment in time has its unique “Genetic Blueprint,” and this blueprint is made up of “Genes” referred to as Aspects in the Planetary context. The “Genetic blueprint” will express itself in a predictable and timely way, just like the Genes in our Genetics will express themselves in our lifetime. The book starts with an explanation of how the planets can be monitored and the data used to understand their impact on us and covers the interplanetary relationships coherently, describing planet attributes from a profound perspective. By using appropriate and novel analogies, it explains the basic concepts as well as the more advanced ones. The book uses innovative concepts on Birth Charts, Event Charts, Month Forecasts, Year Forecasts, and Relationship Charts. Further, the book moves on to discuss real-life case studies relevant to the subject. The discussed cases include appropriate aspects of Margaret Thatcher, John F Kennedy, Bill & Melinda Gates, Tiger Woods, The Tucson Shooting & Gabby Giffords, The 9/11 Terror Attack, The Japan Earthquake & Tsunami, The First World War, The Second World War. The Attacks on Hiroshima and Nagasaki & A corporate case of BP Plc. All research is presented in appropriate Graphics and includes personally developed Interpretation Tables as a reference source. I am sure all readers will be able to relate to the concept and benefit from the insights personally. The evidence presented is accurate and readers will find the evidence absolutely compelling and justifying my claim that Planets play a very predictable and timely role in our lives. The book identifies the planets implicated in our day-to-day life happenings and the same for world events.

To view the party in Scott Lewis's Vibrant Mood Swings is to enter the room with X-ray specs on. Not the X-ray specs of comic book lore for although you will see a flash of nipple, or a well-honed muscle bulging through a pair of tights, you will also penetrate deeper, beneath the clothes, beyond the skin, into the sinew of the soul (or more likely, lack of one) into the core being of a mixed bag of characters whose egos override any connection to other humans or the world around them. Like the anatomy books he was enamored with as a child, his characters are exposed, both visually and through the stories that are told throughout this book. Within these pages, you will find the love triangles of circus performers, the self-inflicted angsts of self-centered party-goers, and the tragic showbiz dreams of hometown starlets. The personalities that lie beneath have been irreparably damaged by the pressure to be smarter, wittier, and more beautiful than their peers. Vibrant Mood Swings humorously exposes the conceit, hubris, and vanity among a collection of damaged denizens who live in the worlds created by a truly unique artist in the prime of his creative output.

The aura has been given many names over the centuries-chi'i, prana, karnaeem, and Illiaster. In fact, it has been documented for over 5,000 years. Astral lights alluded to by ancient Eastern Indians, Chinese and Jewish mystics are attributed to a universal energy permeating all matter. The aura was described in early esoteric writings and later in those of the Rosicrucians, Zen Buddhists, Christian mystics-even in the oral traditions of the American Indians. Now, Capturing the Aura brings the science, technology and metaphysics of auric investigation into a concise and readable book for the 21st century-a century that will see continuing integration of science and metaphysics into the MetaScience of the future.

Today I feel silly. Mom says it's the heat. I put rouge on the cat and gloves on my feet. I ate noodles for breakfast and pancakes at night. I dressed like a star and was quite a sight. Today I am sad, my mood's heavy and gray. There's a frown on my face and it's been there all day. My best friend and I had a really big fight. She said that I tattled and I know that she's right. Silly, cranky, excited, or sad--everyone has moods that can change each day. Jamie Lee Curtis's zany and touching verse, paired with Laura Cornell's whimsical and original illustrations, helps kids explore, identify, and, even have fun with their ever-changing moods. Here's another inspired picture book from the bestselling author-illustrator team of Tell Me Again About the Night I Was Born and When I Was Little: A Four-Year-Old's Memoir of Her Youth.
