Sometimes I Lie


Book Description

My name is Amber Reynolds. There are three things you should know about me: 1. I’m in a coma. 2. My husband doesn’t love me anymore. 3. Sometimes I lie. Amber wakes up in a hospital. She can’t move. She can’t speak. She can’t open her eyes. She can hear everyone around her, but they have no idea. Amber doesn’t remember what happened, but she has a suspicion her husband had something to do with it. Alternating between her paralyzed present, the week before her accident, and a series of childhood diaries from twenty years ago, this brilliant psychological thriller asks: Is something really a lie if you believe it's the truth?

YOU Wouldn't Understand


Book Description

"You Wouldn't Understand" looks at ethnic diversity in schools through the eyes of teachers rather than pupils. It tells the story of one white teacher's developing understanding of how her own racial and ethnic background influenced the way she regarded and taught the mainly South Asian Muslim children in her classes. She began with a belief that narrowness in the curriculum was her students' problem, but she came to see the bigger picture. The book charts her gradual realization that many of the problems lcome from her own lack of understanding of race, racism, and her own racial identity. The book explores the idea of whiteness as not a biological but a social construction, and one which influences white people's ways of seeing the world in often unnoticed ways. The author relates whiteness to aspects of her own behaviour, which she recorded in a diary over five years. The book also considers the children's struggles to construct and understand their own emerging identities in this environment, and the views of several other white teachers, some of whom shared the author's confusion and doubts, and others who were more confident about teaching in culturally diverse classrooms. This searching analysis of the innards of whiteness and the way it affects how white teachers approach pupils who are not white is illuminating and important. It should be required reading for all teacher trainers and all white trainee teachers, as well as for white managers and teachers working in multi-ethnic schools.

Claire's Story


Book Description

When a routine doctor’s visit becomes anything but routine, Claire began to slowly appreciate that her choices and lifestyle weren’t reflecting the person that she really wanted to be and subsequently, living the life she genuinely wanted. Before she knew it, she found herself on a journey of discovery that would not only transform her, but also her husband, her good friend Emily and others. Little did she know that the pair of skinny jeans that had been waiting for her in her closet would be the inspiration she needed to finally live the life she wanted. Follow Claire through her journey of self-evaluation and self-honesty as she finally understands what drives her choices and the impact that her choices have on her achieving her heart’s wants and needs. Along the way and just like Claire, you’ll learn valuable information about how to achieve your own wants and needs. You’ll gain the needed insight regarding choices and what drives them and ultimately be able to formulate a game plan that will outsmart the unhealthy choices—choices that provide immediate gratification but only keep us trapped in a life that falls short of what we truly desire for ourselves, be it physical, emotional, or spiritual. Through Claire’s story, you’ll learn how to create and embrace a new life and a new you by living your reality one choice at a time. With a perfect blend of warmth, humor, experience and common sense, Dr. Drew Huffman and Claire will show you how you can change your reality by creating the reality that more closely meets your expectations. So, what are you waiting for?
