  • - Advice For Young Men to Create a Great Life for Themselves
    by Nick August
    £16.49

    There's so much about life that we're not taught in schools. We're not taught to develop ourselves mentally, physically and spiritually. We're told that we have to go to college or we won't be successful, but that isn't true at all. We're not taught how to pick a career that will create the life we want. We're not taught how to invest and prepare for retirement. Most importantly, we're not taught how to date efficiently, find genuine desire and how to lead and manage a successful relationship. We're also told that marriage is the goal, but it doesn't have to be. In fact, it's a bad deal for men. I didn't learn all of this stuff until after I was 35 years old, but I wish I knew all of this when I was 18. After reading this, you'll be better prepared to build a great life for yourself!

  • - How to Overcome the Deadly Challenges of War and Return Home
    by Walter Hoffmann
    £13.49

    In a war, subjected to chaos and adversity, soldiers on the front lines face horrors and challenges that are often unpredictable and unimaginable. In this harsh and unforgiving scenario, their survival depends on their military training and ability to adapt quickly to changing situations and make crucial decisions in fractions of a second.This book emphasizes survival, not aggression, as the human race can only achieve supreme progress within peace and harmony among nations, forever banishing differences based on race, color, religious beliefs, and other traits with which we are born. Selfishness, ambition, and the desire for power are outlawed.Dedicated to those brave men and women who risk their lives for the safety and well-being of their colleagues and fellow citizens, this book explores essential strategies from the trenches of the battlefield-strategies that can make the difference between survival or succumbing to the overwhelming and destructive power of an armed conflict.However, this book goes beyond the merely technical aspect; it also addresses the emotional and psychological impact that accompanies those who have lived through totally traumatic experiences on the battlefield and how to overcome the feared and gloomy post-traumatic effect that affects thousands of soldiers who have managed to survive. It also shows how to face moral and ethical dilemmas, as being on the battlefield often puts personal values in conflict with duty and survival.

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.
