A new standalone sci-fi novel from Edward Ashton, author of Mickey7 (the inspiration for the major motion picture Mickey 17). Dalton Greaves is a hero. Heā€™s one of humankindā€™s first representatives to Unity, a pan-species confederation working to bring all sentient life into a single benevolent brotherhood. Thatā€™s what they told him, anyway. The only actual members of Unity that heā€™s ever met are Boreau, a giant snail who seems more interested in plunder than spreading love and harmony, and Boreauā€™s human sidekick, Neera, who Dalton strongly suspects roped him into this gig so that she wouldnā€™t become the next one of Boreauā€™s crew to get eaten by locals while prospecting. Funny thing, thoughā€”turns out there actually is a benevolent confederation out there, working for the good of all life. They call themselves the Assembly, and they really donā€™t like Unity. More to the point, they really, really donā€™t like Unityā€™s new human minions. When an encounter between Boreauā€™s scout ship and an Assembly cruiser over a newly discovered world ends badly for both parties, Dalton finds himself marooned, caught between a stickman, one of the Assemblyā€™s nightmarish shock troops, the planetā€™s natives, who arenā€™t winning any congeniality prizes themselves, and Neera, who might actually be the most dangerous of the three. To survive, heā€™ll need to navigate palace intrigue, alien morality, and a proposal that he literally cannot refuse, all while making sure Neera doesnā€™t come to the conclusion that heā€™s worth more to her dead than alive. Part first contact story, part dark comedy, and part bizarre love triangle, The Fourth Consort The Fourth Consort asks an important question: how far would you go to survive? And more importantly, how many drinks would you need to go there? šŸ“„ Download Links: TFC: https://uploda.sh/ggOgHl3TABWF https://devuploads.com/ccswwi9u1g0v

The art gallery acolytes have insisted on writing ā€œexplanationsā€ of her paintings for an accompanying catalog, but what do they know of her work? What do they know of her brother, Demetri, whose face echoes across every canvas? After all, Ava and Demetri have only ever had each other. Abandoned first by their mother, who drowned in the Long Island Sound, and then again by their father, who couldnā€™t see beyond his grief, each sibling has always been the otherā€™s most ardent supporter: Demetri encouraged Avaā€™s raw talent as a painter, while Ava pushed Demetri to pursue filmmaking. But as they make their way in New York, the codependency that once sustained them soon threatens to be their undoing. Betrayals mount, fueled by Avaā€™s reckless acts and her disdain for Demetriā€™s last-ditch efforts to make something of consequence, but what ultimately and irreversibly tips the scales wonā€™t be found on canvas or film. Because now, at thirty-one, Demetri is dying. As Ava reckons with the meaning of her portraits, what soon emerges from her intimate, offhanded, and mischievous meditations is a stunning and unsettling confession of secrets, epiphanies, rivalry, and infidelity. Vaulting between childhood and the days leading up to Demetriā€™s death, here is a searing portrait of two remarkable siblings reckoning with the limits of loyalty.

Looking for a way out of London after a painful, unexpected breakup, Nadia leaps at the chance. In Iraq, Nadia quickly realizes sheā€™s in over her head. Her direct reports are hostile and unenthused about taking orders from an obvious UN novice, and the murmurs of deradicalization being inherently unethical and possibly illegal threaten to end Nadiaā€™s UN career before it even begins. Frustrated by her situation and the unrelenting heat, Nadia decides to visit the camp with her sullen team, composed of Goody Two-shoes Sherri who never passes up an opportunity to remind Nadia of her objections; and Pierre, a snippy Frenchman who has no qualms about perpetually scrolling through Grindr. At the camp, Nadia meets Sara, one of the younger refugees, whose accent immediately gives her away as a fellow East Londoner. From their first interaction, Nadia feels inexplicably drawn to the rude girl in the diamantĆ© headscarf. She leaves the camp determined to get Sara home. But the system Nadia finds herself trapped in is a quagmire of inaction and corruption. One accomplishment barely makes a dent in Nadiaā€™s ultimate goal of freeing Sara . . . and the other women, too, of course. And so, Nadia makes an impossible decision leading to ramifications she could have never imagined. A triumph of dark humor,Fundamentallyasks bold questions: Who can tell someone what to believe?

Janet is an underpaid gig therapist who spends her time as a mental health matchmaker, responding to grievance letters from faceless online avatars.

  18. šŸ“® The Talent by Daniel D'Addario (.ePUB) Hollywood Wives meets A Visit from the Goon Squad in this emotional debut novel from Variety chief correspondent and a moderator of the Actors on Actors series about a group of actresses confronting their careers, their secrets, and each other throughout one turbulent awards season. As Hollywood prepares for its most glamorous evening, five actresses compete to see who will claim the top prize. Adria, a dignified and highly regarded grand dame of the movie industry, is intent on cementing her legacy as one of the greatest thespians of all time, even as the younger generation creeps up quickly behind her. Bitty must keep a nervous breakdownā€”and an increasingly debilitating alcohol addictionā€”at bay, as she searches for genuine closeness in an unforgiving landscape. Contessa, a former child star, is determined to make the world, and her leading man, take her seriously. Davina attempts to find her footing in superficial Los Angeles, a far cry from her roots as a serious London stage actress. And Jennyā€”always the underdog to her rival, Adriaā€”sees this awards season as her personal redemption, a chance to atone for past mistakes and make up for missed opportunities. With humor, wit, and an insiderā€™s insight,The Talentpeels back the layers of women who are in the business of being perceived. And while they work to push their careers forward and maintain the publicā€™s goodwill, all five are forced to confront truths about themselves that they would rather ignore: Could Adria and Jenny have been a team all these years, rather than bitter enemies? Is it their responsibility to offer a lifeline to poor Bitty, who is clearly teetering on the edge? Should Contessa and Davina dim their own rising stars to make those around them more comfortable? What do women in the spotlight owe each other, and themselves? ā™»ļø Book's Info: Author Daniel D'Addario Size 3.1MB Category Fiction > General/Classics, Women's Fiction File Type ePUB šŸ“„ Download Links: https://uploda.sh/16GgtRMLiNG3 https://devuploads.com/tzedhobf114r

    šŸ“® Deep Cuts by Holly Brickley (.ePUB) Look, the song whispered to me, that day in my living room. Life can be so big. Itā€™s a Friday night in a campus bar in Berkeley, fall of 2000, and Percy Marks is pontificating about music again. Hall and Oates is on the jukebox, and Percyā€”who has no talent for music, just lots of opinions about itā€”canā€™t stop herself from overanalyzing the song, indulging what she knows to be her most annoying habit. But something is different tonight. The guy beside her at the bar, fellow student Joe Morrow, is a songwriter. And he could listen to Percy talk all night. Joe asks Percy for feedback on one of his songsā€”and the results kick off a partnership that will span years, ignite new passions in them both, and crush their egos again and again. Is their collaboration worth its cost? Or is it holding Percy back from finding her own voice? Moving from Brooklyn bars to San Francisco dance floors,Deep Cutsexamines the nature of talent, obsession, belonging, and above all, our need to be heard. ā™»ļø Book's Info: Author Holly Brickley Size 2.5MB Category Fiction > General/Classics, Women's Fiction File Type ePUB šŸ“„ Download Links: https://uploda.sh/NDmHRNEWBFxe https://devuploads.com/5o3mmch7q4yd

  25. šŸ“® Chokepoints by Edward Fishman (.ePUB) The epic story of how America turned the world economy into a weapon, upending decades of globalization to take on a new authoritarian axisā€”Russia, China, and Iran. It used to be that ravaging another countryā€™s economy required blockading its ports and laying siege to its cities. Now all it takes is a statement posted online by the U.S. government. In Chokepoints, Edward Fishman, a former top State Department sanctions official, takes us deep into the back rooms of power to reveal the untold history of the last two decades of U.S. foreign policy, in which America renounced the gospel of globalization and waged a new kind of economic war. As Vladimir Putin, Xi Jinping, and Ayatollah Khamenei wreaked havoc on the world stage, mavericks within the U.S. government built a fearsome new arsenal of economic weapons, exploiting Americaā€™s dominance in global finance and technology. Successive U.S. presidents have relied on these unconventional weapons to address the most pressing national-security threats, for good and for ill. ā™»ļø Book's Info: Author Edward Fishman Size 24.7MB Category Non-Fiction > Educational File Type ePUB šŸ“„ Download Links: https://uploda.sh/a2kmgtJcETka https://devuploads.com/oo5j7g9z196s
