    Introduction de l'auteur: Naviguer dans les profondeurs de l'espritBienvenue dans un voyage qui transcende l'ordinaire et s'aventure dans le paysage extraordinaire de l'expérience humaine.Mon parcours en tant qu'auteur a commencé dans l'ombre de la dépression et de l'anxiété, où j'ai démêlé les complexités de la psyché humaine. À travers l'introspection et le pouvoir transformateur de la poésie, j'ai trouvé mon chemin hors du labyrinthe de mon propre esprit, offrant aux lecteurs un chemin unique vers la compréhension et la guérison. Rejoignez-moi dans "Anxiety and Depression: Poems from the Depths of the Soul" alors que nous explorons l'interaction profonde des émotions, confrontons l'obscurité et l'illuminons avec des vers introspectifs, embarquant finalement dans un voyage de découverte de soi et de résilience.Introduction de l'auteur: Déverrouiller les profondeurs de l'espritImaginez plonger dans les eaux inexplorées de la psyché humaine, explorer les cavernes cachées de l'âme et déchiffrer le langage cryptique des émotions. C'est là que mon parcours en tant qu'auteur a réellement commencé - non dans la lumière, mais dans les profondeurs ombragées de la dépression et de l'anxiété. Pendant des années, je me suis retrouvé pris dans la toile complexe de ces deux adversaires redoutables, piégé dans une lutte incessante pour comprendre les murmures de ma propre pensée. C'était un voyage labyrinthique, où l'obscurité tenait la main du désespoir et l'anxiété peignait des labyrinthes complexes de doute. Mais au sein de ce labyrinthe, j'ai découvert le pouvoir de l'introspection et la magie curative des mots. J'ai appris que les émotions qui semblaient autrefois être des tempêtes turbulentes pouvaient être transformées en poésie, chaque vers un canot de sauvetage naviguant sur la mer tumultueuse de l'âme. Ces poèmes sont devenus ma bouée de sauvetage, une manière de naviguer dans les eaux traîtres de mes propres pensées, et finalement, un chemin vers la lumière. À travers ce livre, "Anxiety and Depression: Poems from the Depths of the Soul", je vous invite à me rejoindre dans ce voyage unique. C'est un voyage qui transcende l'ordinaire et s'aventure dans le paysage extraordinaire de l'expérience humaine. Ensemble, nous explorerons l'interaction complexe des émotions, affronterons l'obscurité intérieure et l'illuminerons avec le pouvoir poétique de l'introspection. En tournant les pages, vous découvrirez non seulement les profondeurs de mes propres luttes, mais aussi la résilience de l'esprit humain. J'espère que ces mots résonneront en vous, vous apporteront du réconfort dans vos propres moments d'obscurité et vous inspireront à affronter et à conquérir la tempête émotionnelle intérieure.Ce que vous trouverez dans ce livre: Découvrez l'univers émotionnel: Comme si vous voyageiez à travers un cosmos de sentiments, vous explorerez les profondeurs et les hauteurs des émotions humaines, révélant de manière unique la complexité de l'expérience de l'anxiété et de la dépression.Vers comme des plumes d'oiseau: Les poèmes sont comme les plumes d'un oiseau s'enfonçant profondément dans l'âme, vous enveloppant dans la beauté et la grâce des mots. Chaque vers vous portera doucement à travers une gamme d'émotions.Le théâtre des émotions humaines: Ce livre est un théâtre des émotions humaines, avec des actes dramatiques d'anxiété et de dépression, ainsi que des moments de lumière et de transformation. Vous aurez l'impression d'être sur scène, vivant chaque mot.Naviguer à travers les vagues tumultueuses de la guérison: Les mots et les vers vous guideront à travers une navigation tumultueuse de la guérison intérieure, vous offrant des outils pour trouver votre équilibre et votre paix.

    There's always that one boy. The one who's so off limits that even thinking about him makes you feel guilty.For me, that boy is Nashville Wilde. More tempting than the perfect iced latte after a ten-day caffeine detox, he's gorgeous-of course-but he's also really sweet, funny, and he seems to see me . . . the scholarship kid who's invisible to everyone else. And if the only problem was that he was way out of my league, a literal movie star whose picture is plastered across the walls of girls around the world, not to mention king of the ultra-elite boarding school I'm only attending because I can kick a soccer ball into a goal? I might have still shot my shot. If only the obstacles were that simple. Because the biggest hurdle of all is the beautiful, kind, lovely, hilarious London-the girl I love like a sister. She's the one who's been there for me since the moment I stepped onto this campus, the one who's had my back no matter what came my way, my very best friend in the whole wide world. But London is Nash's sister. And her biggest insecurity is that girls only befriend her to date her brother. It's happened before. And I won't let it happen again. I can't do it. So never would I ever kiss my best friend's movie star brother. This book was previously published under the title, The Kissing Game.

  • - A Simple Love Story In Not So Simple Black and White

    Jill and Justin fell in love at first sight. That Jill was a white, 27-year-old single mother and Justin, 24, was black, didn't matter to either of them - or to Jill's 8-year-old daughter, Cayani. But it did matter to some. What could have been a story of happily ever after takes a tragic turn when Jill is killed in an automobile accident, only days after she and Justin decide to get married. Cayani has no grandparents or other relatives to take care of her. She has only Justin - and he has only her. How societal norms in general, and the pall of racism in particular impact Justin and Cayani as they try to build a life together is the focus of this penetrating novel about family, loss, and sacrifice, but most of all, love. Justin's quest to adopt Cayani is the backdrop as the two of them fight to become a family. Justin had no idea how to raise a child by himself, let alone a white child who was so close to him in age. How he had to reconceive his racial attitudes all the while helping Cayani adjust to a new life, while keeping her racial identity, is uplifting and inspiring as we all try to find our place in a world that often tries to keep us apart. The love that binds Justin and Cayani is unshakeable and undeniable, but is that going to be enough?

  • - Una Vita Fin Troppo Movimentata
    by Willer Vetta
    £13.49

    Si prenda un ragazzo quattordicenne, con l'occhio vispo, il pensiero rapido e una grande abilità nel cavarsela anche nelle situazioni più imbarazzanti. Amalgamate bene e dopo qualche anno si otterrà un miscuglio tra fantasia, intuizione e velocità di attuazione: uno strano intreccio tra un attore nato, un "imbranato" e un genialoide (forse). Questo "uragano" è Gianfranco, il protagonista, proveniente dalla cosiddetta gioventù del "cazzeggio", come si direbbe oggi, o degli "scioperati" come si soleva dire ai suoi tempi. Con l'età e con le vicissitudini della vita è molto migliorato anche se un velo d'indolenza è ancora insito nei suoi neuroni. Una formula magica, questa, che gli ha attirato personaggi femminili di ogni carattere e personalità, come un'invisibile calamita, una forza elettromagnetica che l'ha trascinato verso circostanze e avvenimenti al limite della credibilità. In ognuno dei capitoli che compongono il libro sono raccontati gli episodi che hanno segnato la vita di Gianfranco: dalla spensieratezza al primo innamoramento, dal primo bacio alla "prima volta". I racconti sono "dedicati" ad alcune delle ragazze (dai 14 ai 40 anni) che hanno caratterizzato la sua vita in sequenza temporale, dalla prima esperienza dell'adolescenza a quelle in età matura. L'aggiunta di alcune pagine a corollario, articolate attorno ad "avventure" fuori dall'ordinario, integrano il testo. La narrazione non si è chiusa con l'ultima vicenda ma potrebbe benissimo essere implementata con altre protagoniste e protagonisti. Potrebbe avere un "seguito", anzi, l'ho già scritto.

  • - Realismo urbano de alguna generación "X" de Lima.
    by Joseduardo Campoverde
    £12.99

    Una novela compuesta por relatos de realismo urbano, desarrollados en la ciudad de Lima, en una época en concreto (entre las décadas del noventa y la primera del dos mil).Joel narra en primera persona diversas situaciones, sus experiencias con mujeres, una búsqueda interminable de chicas no superficiales; hechos que le afectan de sobre manera producto de haber crecido de forma alienante con la cultura gringa idealizada del "sueño americano", pensamientos en voz alta de un joven escritor decepcionado por su entorno y su sesgada visión particular de las personas desde su realidad, tratando de estar con nadie y con todos a la vez, con la teoría clara de la vida pero desastroso en la práctica.Relatos que muestran el resultado de cierta generación que formo parte de varios cambios, y que el gran ajuste de esos cambios afecto directamente a la infancia y juventud Limeña, creando personajes, egoístas, desconfiados, temerosos e incluso bizarros. La arrogancia propia de la juventud casi siempre lleva a errores a veces graves, como coges las curvas del coche, igual las decisiones de jóvenes sin sueños materializados, refugiado en tópicos como la poesía, la música y el nihilismo. En aquellos pasos, encuentra lágrimas propias, egocentrismo ajeno, hipocresía reciclada y añeja llamada diplomacia. Noches largas de Rock and roll de garaje. Paseado su espectro por rincones limeños, despierta sus ganas de dejar todo atrás y abandonar esos llantos que lo hacen débil en una ciudad salvaje. Joel cambia sus tristezas por palabras reales y alegrías efímeras de hoy.

The YA genre
The young adult genre is one of the fastest growing literary genres. The genre is often referred to as ‘YA’ and speaks to the younger readers between the ages 12-18. One of the reasons for its popularity is the way the young adult novels deal with coming-of-age themes and problems that the young readers can relate to. The actions are set in fictional worlds and by using this mechanism the problems are introduced with a suitable distance for the reader. In that way it is easier for the reader to read about the problems and deal with them throughout the story. 
The enchanting worlds also fascinate the youngsters and give them a break from their everyday life and it’s problems, while the young adult books at the same time deal with them through these worlds. In that way the reader is met at eye level, and there are no adults speaking down to the youngsters. Then it is also easier for the young reader to deal with the challenges of the everyday life themselves. The books come in different forms, most often as young adult fiction books or young adult romance books.
   
Popular young adult characters
Some of the most famous book characters are found in the young adult genre. Here we find Bella Swan, the girl who falls in love with a mysterious and handsome vampire, Edward, in a little, rainy town where strange things happen. Here we also see the genre features of YA. Bella is an ordinary girl who falls in love for the first time and discovers her own sexuality. A very important step in any young adult’s life. At the same time she lives in a world with vampires and werewolves and magical wars. The fictional elements in the plot also helps her find her inner strength and develop her as a person.   
The Twilight universe as a young adult book series has fascinated both youngsters and adults around the world, where fans discussed which man Bella should pick. Should it be the shy and mysterious vampire or the attractive werewolf? The whole Twilight series is also adapted for the screen making the young adult novels even more popular.  
Another popular character from another young adult book series is the famous young wizard Harry Potter. In the Harry Potter series we also have a main character, who doesn’t fit in, but instead discovers he belongs in a magical world. Again the fictional elements help the young adult character to discover his true self and again we see the coming of age plot. Although a lot of the story takes place in a magical world with fictional problems, the story is also about friendship. No matter which opponent Harry, Ron and Hermione are up against, they always fight together and find strength in each other. 

The classics written for young adults
You also find classical novels written for young adults in our selection. A classical novel never loses it’s magic. It makes you reflect and everyone can get something out of reading a classic, because they deal with universal problems. The story could have been written 200 years ago and still be as relevant as the day it was published, but the language could be quite a challenge to read, especially as a young adult. Therefore the beloved stories have been adapted to young adult formats, so that the young readers can get as much out of the story as all the enthusiastic previous readers.
Among the classics is the beloved Pride and Prejudices, made as one of the young adult romance books, by the timeless author Jane Austen. In the story we meet the young girl Elizabeth, who just likes Bella Swan and Harry Potter, are different, because she doesn't live up to that times’ ideal of a woman. At the same time she falls in love for the first time, but she is having troubles figuring out the truth and which man she should trust with her heart. Instead of using a fictional universe to deal with the everyday problems, the story uses humor. Furthermore, although the story was realistic at the time, the times have changed and the historical time period almost becomes its own fictional universe, where the young readers can learn about the lifestyles of that time and especially the ideals of women. Another classic made for young adults that deals with some of the same themes is Jane Eyre by Charlotte Brönte. Again we have a strong female lead character, who falls in love for the first time and discovers a whole new world - the world of adults. 

No matter which tales you love, you find all the young adult books to read right here.
