John-Baptiste A: Looked After / B

Looked After

A Childhood in Care

Nowhere Girls

A fiercely funny and wise story of sensuality, money and romance - how those forces can break us, and how they can make us whole again. Charlotte Shane's utterly compelling serial memoir follows its author over the course of several years as she falls in and out of love, contemplates the nature of sex work and pursues pleasure for its own sake. Growing out of a series of confessional letters sent by the author to a small but devoted mailing list, her unstinting and sometimes heart-breaking honesty about sex and relationships went on to make them a viral sensation, gaining thousands of subscribers. By turns philosophical, irreverent and explicit, here is an affecting, immediate account of one life lived to its fullest.

From a fearless comic known for tackling uncomfortable topics, a revealing and subversive memoir that explores Bowers’ life from his difficult childhood in Georgia up to his rise in the LA comedy world &nbsp; Byron Bowers is often referred to as a Comics’ Comic. A veteran stand-up comedian and actor, he's known for gripping material covering spirituality, race, socioeconomics, gender roles—and for delivering a fair chunk of it unrehearsed and in the moment. But though his life today may seem promising, it wasn't always that way. After all, as Byron sees it, the best stand-ups spin comedy from their own perceptions of reality. and what better source material to mine than one's own struggles? Growing up as an&nbsp;illegitimate child in conservative Georgia, Byron was accustomed to instability, passed from parent to parent before eventually being taken in by his grandmother. While experiencing heavy bullying from children his community, he bussed into a white school and instantly became a target of racism. Meanwhile, trying to handle his father's diagnosis with paranoid-schizophrenia, for which he was institutionalized, and his subsequent drug addiction.&nbsp; Being left alone in the projects by his father, Byron realizing that the only person he could rely on was himself, Byron vowed to reshape his life—and get the hell out of Georgia.&nbsp; Willing to do whatever it took to make it out led to a basketball scholarship and set forth a new adventure—while also selling crack at a Christian university out of state. After being shot at and finding himself on the verge of either homicide or suicide, Byron stepped down as his college town's Second in Command and moved to Atlanta. Knowing business classes could foster a career in white-collar crime, he returned to college, becoming the first in his family to earn a degree. Upon graduation, Byron pursued stand-up comedy slowly moving up the ranks the Atlanta comedy scene due to his edginess. He decided to move to the West Coast to pursue comedy and became a regular performer at the hallowed Sunset Strip Comedy Store.&nbsp;From there, he evolved into a stand-out on the local stand-up scene, was the surprise winner of a strategic comedy competition, and even landed himself a few television credits—finally&nbsp;poised on the cusp of achieving success on his own terms. Beyond the Promised Land&nbsp;dismisses the conventional wisdom that reality’s rules can’t be rewritten. Ultimately, Byron's is a story that educates, enlightens, and inspires anyone who refuses to let adversity stand in the way of not only their dreams, but finding peace along the way. &nbsp;

The Sober Girl Society Handbook

There are seven common reasons why relationships fail.An expert on midlife, and now relationships, the hugely respected journalist Miranda Sawyer outlines these common reasons, using anecdotal and personal evidence to delight and inform the reader as they naviagte partnered life.Did you know that one in ten people argue with their partner about finances at least once a fortnight?The most obvious argument is centred around a lack of money. Statistically, it’s unlikely that both partners will be paid exactly the same amount, therefore is it really fair to go Dutch and split finances equally? Money is just one of seven contentious issues which can lead to a relationship going pear-shaped.Sex, culture, children, personal taste (interiors, for example) and arguing can each be a catalyst for The End. Although the book can’t promise not to end your relationship, it will make you wiser.

Double Purity tells the moving story of the reunification of two identical twins, the cultural divide between them as a result of the forced adoption of one twin by Chinese authorities, and the effects of the separation on both girls and on their families. Along the way, Barbara delves into China's recent historical and political situation, telling the story of its brutal one-child policy, which came into effect in 1979, and the corruption and trafficking of children that emerged as a result. Many families aborted or abandoned children to comply with the law, and in 1992, when China opened its doors to overseas adoption, many were given up to orphanages. Babies were a valuable commodity, with orphanages receiving a 'donation' of $3,000 for each adoption. Over time a corrupt system grew up to increase the supply of babies, including many forced seizures of children.
