Sometimes life isn't just about the choices WE make, it's about how the choices THEY make, affect us. I Didn't Sign Up For This is an honest and unabashedly bold memoir by a woman thrown into a life of isolation after her husband was convicted of murder. Sharp witted and bracingly candid, Shabazz unpacks the adverse effects of incarceration on loved ones -often hidden and damaging-to tell a personal story of recovery from shame into a spirit-filled life of advocacy and support for the most vulnerable of society. Now a public speaker on prison reform, police brutality, and foster care, Shabazz recounts how life sometimes threw her down a well, but how through Islam, tenacity, and guidance, she was able to climb to new heights and rebuild her life. This memoir is for every woman playing the game of life, often with a hand of cards we would much rather throw back in.

People from across the globe have shared some of the most hilariously forthright signs they have come across during their travels - and they really do tell you how it is.
Not every relationship ends in a ‘happily ever after.’ And sometimes, your knight’s shining armor is just for show. So much so that these people end up being called out on the front page of the internet for how awfully they treat their partners. Lies, accusations, and manipulation... it's an emotional rollercoaster that's more powerful than a soap opera.

If you're like me, many of these older kids book series such as 'The Hardy Boys,' 'Choose Your Own Adventure,' or even 'The Boxcar Children,' will really bring those childhood memories flooding back to you. What you might not recall, however, is how ridiculous some of the book's lead images actually were. Which is where…
The images were taken by an unknown photographer with the initials 'KY' at the turn of the 19th century and show what life was like for men, women and children at a time of growth and decay in London.
The Family Photo Keeper Academy teaches how to organize photos and gives you the guidance you need so you can finally tackle your 30+ years of photo memories.
A candid little book about my hellish history with false memory related Pure-O intrusive thoughts, to lend you a helping hand so you too can climb out of the dark hole that is OCD. I suffered from OCD for nearly 20 years, and have finally brought it under control. Here are my methods, tips, and tricks. May they help you become free again. - Who is Lucy Black? I don't know. She's not real. One morning after a particularly awful flare up with my most recent obsessive thoughts - followed by lunch with my boyfriend where I'd burst into tears over a bacon roll - I created Lucy. Why? Because I'd gotten it into my head that I could 'solve' one of my intrusive thoughts. I could prove that it didn't happen and feel comfortable and normal again... | Author: Lucy Black | Publisher: CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform | Publication Date: Sep 15, 2016 | Number of Pages: 56 pages | Language: English | Binding: Paperback | ISBN-10: 1537714902 | ISBN-13: 9781537714905
Available once again for a new generation of readers, the groundbreaking and candid coming-of-age novel in-real-time from one of America's most celebrated poets that is considered a cult classic. In this breathtakingly inventive autobiographical novel, Eileen Myles transforms life into a work of art. Told in her audacious voice, made vivid and immediate in her lyrical language, Chelsea Girls cobbles together memories of Myles’ 1960s Catholic upbringing with an alcoholic father, her volatile adolescence, her unabashed “lesbianity,” and her riotous pursuit of survival as a poet in 1970s New York. Suffused with alcohol, drugs, and sex; evocative in its depictions of the hardscrabble realities of a young artist’s life; and poignant with stories of love, humor, and discovery, Chelsea Girls is a funny, cool, and intimate account of a writer’s education, and a modern chronicle of how a young female writer shrugged off the chains of a rigid cultural identity meant to define her.
