I would recommend this book to middle school students who like chess, are curious about ADHD, or want to see a character overcome obstacles. This book gives a really good explanation of what it’s like to have ADHD, what it feels like, and what the struggles are.Īnything you didn’t like about it? The book seemed repetitive. I like that Clea is able to play chess so well and that it’s the one space where she’s able to get in the zone.

Even Youtube has it, in amongst the cute kitties and skateboard stunts. ![]() I’m not sure how they’re getting away with it, given that other programmes that violate copyright regulations routinely get pulled. As at time of writing, the whole film can be viewed at Google Video. However, it’s well known that Carpenter objected to the portrayal of his sister’s eating disorder, and the depiction of himself as a closeted, heartless control freak. Officially, the film is unavailable because director Todd Haynes did not acquire the proper music rights from their owner Richard Carpenter. Mashing up the genres of the biopic, movie-of-the-week behind-the-scenes melodrama and a documentary about anorexia, it’s almost all told with Barbie dolls. It’s a film so unusual that it has the WTF appeal that makes for a good “cult” movie (and I don’t use that term often, fearing its overuse, commodification). ![]() One of the few films that remains thoroughly banned and illegal, Superstar: The Karen Carpenter retains some of its cult mystique. ![]() ![]() It is a marvelous job of editing and storytelling. ![]() It tells the complete timeline of Titanic’s journey into history. ![]() What the author has done here, and what the narrator has taken to another level, is to select excerpts from various survivor, accounts, and weave them together to bring you onboard. The original survivor accounts, written in the prose of 1912, can be pretty dry reading. In many ways, it reminds me of “The Only Plane in the Sky,“ the account of 9/11 told through eyewitness accounts. What makes this recording special is its selection of survivor accounts to bring the reader onboard for the journey, the sinking, and the rescue. When I received a $10 coupon for a free Audible book, I chose this one, purely because of the price, and with low expectations. I own almost every book on the subject, including all of the survivors’ published accounts. I have been a “Titanic Buff” for almost 60 years. ![]() ![]() ![]() Though he is serving a life sentence for child sexual assault, Jeffs’ iron grip on the church remains firm, and his edicts to his followers increasingly restrictive and bizarre. ![]() ![]() In 2006, he gained international notoriety when the FBI placed him on its Ten Most Wanted List. Living outside mainstream Mormonism and federal law, Jeffs arranged marriages between under-age girls and middle-aged and elderly members of his congregation. No one in this radical splinter sect of the Mormon Church was more powerful or terrifying than its leader Warren Jeffs-Rachel’s father. Born into the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, Rachel Jeffs was raised in a strict patriarchal culture defined by subordinate sister wives and men they must obey. ![]() ![]() ![]() And, instead of sexy bites shared between vampire lovers (or, rather, a human AND vamp), we had the scary as shit psycho vampires.

Billman takes us along on his journey with Gray’s family as they retrace Jacob’s steps, examine the few available clues, and encounter excessive bureaucracy in their search efforts. ![]() Journalist Billman, a regular contributor to Outside, is “obsessed with writing about missing persons in wild places,” particularly those stories that “defy conventional logic…the proverbial vanish-without-a-trace incidents, which happen a lot more (and a lot closer to your backyard) than almost anyone thinks.” In his nonfiction debut, the author focuses primarily on the case of Jacob Gray, who stepped off his red bicycle in Washington’s Olympic National Park in April 2017 and disappeared into the wilderness. True-life accounts of wilderness disappearances and the families desperately seeking closure. ![]() |
