Inciting Joy: Essays

Ross Gay

*** $3.99 ***

 
 
“Inciting Joy is a book that will break your heart. Ross Gay will break your heart. He will break it and advocate for breaking it over and over. Why? So we can choose our life, our survival, our full humanity. Inciting Joy is brilliant because it’s not just a book; it’s proof that the way we carve out room for joy is by acknowledging our constant teacher: sorrow.”―Ada Limón, U.S. Poet Laureate

“A raucous affair, with dancing, fabulous covers of all your favorite songs, tons of food, a backyard full of folks… and all their sorrows, too… these essays are arguments embedded in stories that stretch like rubber bands around the topics of laughter, basketball, skateboarding, gardening, time, dying, music, gratitude, and dancing. It’s impossible to read them without feeling a shift in your awareness of joy and its unexpected possibilities.”―The Boston Globe

A Light So Lovely: The Spiritual Legacy of Madeleine L’Engle

Sarah Arthur

*** $2.99 ***

 

‘A Light So Lovely is an engaging and deeply satisfying book.’ — Christianity Today

Madeleine L’Engle’s A Wrinkle in Time has captured the imagination of millions – from literary sensation to timeless classic and now a major motion picture starring Oprah Winfrey, Reese Witherspoon, Storm Reid, and Mindy Kaling. A Light So Lovely tells the story of the woman at the center of it all – her imagination, her faith, her pattern of defying categories, and what readers today can learn from her legacy.

Soul Boom: Why We Need a Spiritual Revolution

Rainn Wilson

*** $2.99 ***

 
“A gracious and compassionate (and altogether engaging) book, by someone who truly believes that it is possible to love God, neighbor, and world, and to relate to them and cherish them in ways at once richly spiritual and impeccably rational. He’s right, of course: it is.”―David Bentley Hart, author of The Experience of God: Being, Consciousness, Bliss

“This is the insightful exploration of spirituality that we desperately need right now. As we all seek answers amidst an unceasing news cycle of chaos and doom, Rainn Wilson’s Soul Boom funnily but gently and lovingly opens a door to a deeper way to process all that is happening around us. The wisdom in and on these pages will fill your soul and touch your heart.”―Lisa Ling, coauthor of Somewhere Inside and host of This Is Life
 

#4:

On Beauty: A Novel

Zadie Smith

*** $2.99 ***

 
“. . . [A] thoroughly original tale about families and generational change, about race and multiculturalism in millennial America, about love and identity and the ways they are affected by the passage of time. Ms. Smith possesses a captivating authorial voice—at once authoritative and nonchalant, and capacious enough to accommodate high moral seriousness, laid-back humor and virtually everything in between—and in these pages, she uses that voice to enormous effect, giving us that rare thing: a novel that is as affecting as it is entertaining, as provocative as it is humane.” —Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times

“In this sharp, engaging satire, beauty’s only skin-deep, but funny cuts to the bone.” —Kirkus Reviews

#5:

The Locust Effect: Why the End of Poverty Requires the End of Violence

Gary Haugen and Victor Boutros

*** $2.84 ***

 
“The Locust Effect provides a much-needed argument for reducing violence against the poor and a demonstration — through first hand stories that are both shocking and true — of why that goal is so vital. By reminding us that basic legal protections are not a privilege, but a universal right, Gary Haugen has issued a moral call to arms that informs the brain and touches the heart.” –Madeleine Albright, Former U.S. Secretary of State
