![]() That's why the name of my first book was Grub because I don't care how healthy the food is, if it is not delicious then I don't want it, and I think most people feel that way. I just eat what I eat, and you know, I like good food. ![]() ![]() Because I've understood this dietary journey is very fluid and shifting and changing as I needed it to, I choose for political reasons not to give my diet a title. I think I tried breath-atarianism for a day. On the continuum of consumption with my eating habits, I've been everything from an omnivore to a vegetarian to a vegan to a fruitarian. Bryant, deciding to become a vegan, where does that come from for you?īryant Terry: Well, I'll say this. ![]() Lynne Rossetto Kasper: Vegan and soul food are about as unlikely a pairing as Cocoa Puffs and cognac, but food activist and eco-chef Bryant Terry takes it on in his new book, Vegan Soul Kitchen: Fresh, Healthy, And Creative African-American Cuisine. This interview with chef Bryant Terry originally aired in 2009 as part of our episode Vegan Soul Kitchen following the release of his book, Vegan Soul Kitchen, which includes the recipe for Citrus Collards with Raisins Redux. ![]()

This blog is a Think and Grow Rich summary that details core concepts, and the next blog will provide actionable tips to help you apply these concepts to change your life. The previous blog explains what the book is. ![]() This article is the second in a three-part series on Think and Grow Rich. Think And Grow Rich – Concepts Napoleon Hill ![]() ![]() I made a Bookstagram to promote my blog, but quickly fell in love with that community. To me, there seemed to be enough of a gap that I could start my own blog of spoilers to help people like me! I found a couple of sites that spoil the endings (shouting out my new friend Jen Ryland here!), but couldn’t find everything I was looking for. When I didn’t write down the ending right away, I would try googling it to add it to my list. Often the synopsis alone isn’t enough to jog my memory! I especially needed these spoilers for books in a series, when it had been a while since I read the previous novel. ![]() I started jotting down endings because I found myself re-reading books I had already read, knowing I’d read it before but unable to recall the ending. ![]() ![]() Before I started blogging and Bookstagram, I was writing down the endings to books in my bullet journal as I finished them. ![]() ![]() The pageant director is appalled with her actors, who apparently have no reverence for the beloved story and fight over every stage direction. No parishioner family is willing to volunteer their baby for the previously coveted role as the Christ Child, so Imogene brings an old, naked doll as a stand-in. "What good is some smelly oil? Let's bring pizza!" the prospective Wise Men agree. They have a few, um, artistic suggestions to make to the pageant director. One hapless kid is picked to read the Nativity story to the Herdmans. There was only one major part left, the best one, one with only one short line to learn but with a chance to make a climactic appearance in the limelight- The Angel of the Lord. ![]() ![]() Nobody ever won an argument with Imogene. Leroy, Claude, and Ollie'll be the Wise Men," bellowed Imogene. " I'll be Mary, and Ralph, he'll be Joseph. Not content with heisting the contents of the collection box, they shove their way to the front of the assembled Sunday School kids and take over the major roles in the play. ![]() The Herdmans, known universally as the horrible Herdmans-Ralph, Imogene, Leroy, Claude, Ollie, and Gladys-have certainly never darkened the door of the church before, but with their usual timing, they pick the day of the casting of the annual Christmas pageant to show up. Our Christmas pageant was always the same-kids in bath robes and bedsheets.and everybody knows the story. ![]() ![]() ![]() Praise for The Iron King 'God, I pretty much devoured this book.' 'This book was outstanding. and to find love with a young prince who might rather see her dead than let her touch his icy heart. Now Meghan will learn just how far she'll go to save someone she cares about, to stop a mysterious evil no faery creature dare face. But she could never have guessed the truth – that she is the daughter of a mythical faery king and is a pawn in a deadly war. When a dark stranger begins watching her from afar, and her prankster best friend becomes strangely protective of her, Meghan senses that everything she's known is about to change. ![]() ![]() Something has always felt slightly off in Meghan's life, ever since her father disappeared before her eyes when she was six. 'The Iron King is a must read!' New York Times bestselling author, Gena Showalter Meghan Chase has a secret destiny – one she could never have imagined. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() My shoes were gone, but on instinct I peered over the side of the bed and saw my sneakers sitting there, perfectly positioned on a fancy white rug with gold filigree. I laid on top of the bed, still fully clothed in my black, skinny pants and a pullover white blouse that I’d dressed in this morning. I grabbed them and slipped them on, taking inventory of my body first. I dropped my eyes, spotting my glasses folded and sitting on the bedside table. I pushed myself up, my head aching and every muscle tight like I’d been sleeping for a damn week. ![]() I looked around the lavish bedroom-white, gold, crystal, and mirrors everywhere, palatial in its opulence like I’d never seen in person-and my breathing turned shallow as instant fear took over. I rolled my eyes around me, confusion sinking in as I took in myself burrowed comfortably in the middle of a huge bed, my body taking up about as much room as a single M&M inside its package. I patted my face, feeling my glasses missing. My head rested on the softest pillow, and I moved my arm, brushing my hand over a cool, splendidly plush white comforter. I blinked my eyes, stirring from the heaviest sleep I think I’ve ever had. Like I was behind a waterfall, deep inside a cave. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() In fact, the vast majority of the characters simply used his natural speaking voice. I didn’t feel like he was able to give the different characters much individuality. While certainly not BAD by any means, the narrator was rather “no frills”. ![]() Narrator: I listened to the audiobook version. I often felt my attention wander during the long sections where nothing much happens. THE NOT-SO-GOOD Pacing: Meandering pacing is something the author is known for, and this being his first book is perhaps even more pronounced. I felt like this was a love letter to cat owners everywhere. Cats to a T: Clearly a lover of cats, the author captures the feline self-centeredness as well as their generous natures. ![]() Language: I particularly like the cat language that is sprinkled in here and there, much like Watership Down, that makes this world feel more lived in and believable. So expect an Epic Fantasy about cats and you won’t leave disappointed. Of course, this is Tad Williams, who forced the publishing industry to invent a new binding system because his books were so long and epic, so that should come as no surprise. THE GOOD Lord of the Cats: This book has more world building and mythology than a book about talking cats has any right to. When I saw that they'd finally made an audiobook, I knew it was time. I’ve wanted to read this book since I was a kid and mesmerized by its eye-catching cover. ![]() ![]() We don't allow personal recommendation posts.

I also suggest checking out his other illustrations that you might find on his website. You can find the book on author's website,, it's free and don't thank me later for your nightmares. ![]() This is another bonus of this book - it's amazing how many people found it by accident and since then their interest has built a little subculture around it. Especially when you get over the humanistic bullshit sentiments and instead get into all the animated youtube shorts that little community around this little book of body horror already has created. Yes, you might get nightmares if you're very sensitive. It has pictures! Which are very important.Īlso it's at times disturbing visually and philosophically. But it's two hours packed with so many ideas and visions, that omg, you will need a reread (I did!). This is a must read if you're into futurism, post humanism, evolutionism and a bit of good old lovecraftianesque terror from stars.įirst of all it's. No, he didn't give me his book, at least not literally. Kosemen, for the cool and crazy stuff he created. Always look at the bright side of life! ![]() |
