Elle

Elle's living the dream, but whose dream is it? Elle Garvy loves her life in Beaufort, South Carolina, spending summer days on the sand bar and enjoying coastal bonfires and dinners with friends. She’s found her stride professionally as the owner of a successful art gallery, and she’s found love with handsome, confident Jeremiah Franklin. Life is good. Then Jeremiah accepts a large pastorate in a different state, and Elle turns her life upside down to go with him. When Jeremiah has a change of heart, Elle is hurt and her faith is shaken. New York lawyer and recent widower Heath McCord imagines the low country cottage he’s rented for the summer is the balm his grieving heart needs. That and time to connect with his little girl. He’s unprepared for his beautiful landlord, Elle, and the love her friendship awakens. But God has new blessings in store for these two grieving hearts. Can Elle trust so soon after losing Jeremiah? Can Heath release the memory of his wife and fully love again?

Ferris Bueller's Day Off meets Gamer Girl for middle grade in this hilarious, heartfelt story about a non-binary kid trying to figure out who they are at home, at school, and in the fandom that changed their life. All Elle Campbell wants to do is meet their hero, non-binary icon Nuri Grena. Well, okay, they'd like a bit more than that -- they'd like to learn how to do cat eye makeup, for queen bee Casey to stop critiquing their outfits, and for the finale of Elle's favorite show to have been less terrible. But meeting Nuri means the most of all. So when Elle learns that Nuri is coming to town for book signing on Saturday, Elle is thrilled. It's the perfect chance to meet their hero! Elle's never been happier since they came out as non-binary, but they have a lot of questions -- questions only Nuri can answer. But Elle's dreams are dashed when an altercation with a surly substitute teacher lands Elle in Saturday detention. Elle is ready to give up until their two best friends come up with a plan to bust them out of school. A plan so outrageous, it just might work. Yet that's just step one. The kids also have to make their way across town with no money, no phones... and no driver's licenses. But they refuse to give up -- even if that means "borrowing" scooters from elementary school loan sharks, or winning a laser tag tournament with a cash prize. Comic-author Ben Kahn makes their middle grade debut with this zany, heartfelt love letter to friendship, John Hughes movies, and the power of accepting who you are . . . even when there's no set map for where you're going.

Elle's Logic is a narrative poem by Michael Lieber. It tells the story of a little girl (Elle) who has died in her sleep from the smoke during a house fire; While her body lays in bed, she is depicted as a ghost in the centre of the room and confronted by a grim apparition (Death itself), who informed her of her passing and not to be afraid before holding out a bony opened hand, beckoning her to a dark abyss. Elle then proceeds to use her many talents in an effort to entertain death I.e. stall for time, while her lifeless self is being rescued and revived in the garden outside the house. (This poem has a happy ending). This kindle edition is accompanied by four full-colour illustrations by the Iranian artist Vajihe Golmazari and text analysis by English professor Simon S. Turney.

La dépression est-elle une vraie maladie ? Y a-t-il vraiment un gouffre entre déprime et dépression ? La dépression est-elle causée par un déséquilibre chimique ? Par un mauvais héritage génétique ? La dépression frappe-t-elle réellement au hasard ? Que peut la volonté contre la dépression ? En cas de dépression, y a-t-il un coupable ? Un responsable ? Les idées noires sont-elles un des symptômes de la dépression, ou l'une de ses causes ? Faut-il faire confiance aux médecins pour soigner nos états d'âme ? En se fondant sur la logique et le bon sens, ainsi que de nombreuses recherches, Lucia Canovi, qui connut elle-même la dépression, apporte des réponses inédites et rafraîchissantes à toutes ces questions. Dans un style franc, direct et pétillant de vie, elle démonte l'une après l'autre neuf idées fausses que les médias ont rendues populaires. Ce livre plaira à tous ceux qui n'ont pas trouvé dans la psychiatrie et la médecine la solution à leurs problèmes psychologiques, à tous ceux qui savent ou pressentent que la clé de leurs émotions positives ou négatives, délicieuses ou orageuses, se trouve à l'intérieur de leur propre poche. L'avis d'une lectrice "J'ai trouvé les arguments de ce livre puissants et salutaires. Bravo à Madame Canovi. Sa prose est spirituelle et m'a fait souvent rire. Pouvez-vous en dire autant d'autres livres sur la dépression ?"
