DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe (Soon-To-Be) Best Selling Mature Singles Dating Book Too many women in their 50s and beyond have given up on ever meeting Mr. Practically Perfect. But a small inner voice wonders, "Will I always have to go to bed with a book? Responding to that voice, the authors' inspiring message is, "It's never too late. We did it. So can you. Here's how! DATING WISDOM 101 Turn off your Shy Button. Shrinking violets bloom unseen. No need to despair if your hourglass figure has gained half an hour. It's never too late to lose weight. The only thing you get from sitting around waiting for romance to happen is creases in your skirt. When it comes to choosing women, men are as shallow as your bathtub. If you don't like what you see in the mirror, don't break the mirror. Your cup isn't half-empty. It's just waiting to be filled. Start pouring! Most men are as attracted to cleavage as toddlers are to electric sockets and peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. Smile. Smile. Smile. Why do we love babies? Their wonderful smiles make up for what's in their diapers. Make a habit of going to bed with comfort food, and the only thing you'll find beside you when you wake up in the morning is a bunch of crumbs. It's better to eat breakfast with the morning paper than with the wrong man. PAGES FROM AN Rx PAD Want to fly? You've got to flap your wings. Never walk your dog in a tattered T-shirt. Smile. Smile. Smile. Persist. Persist. Persist. Play the cyberspace numbers game. Network as if you were NBC. Go where the guys go. If at first you don't succeed, it's his fault. He doesn't have to be Richard Gere (though that would be nice). How to deal with the guy who's shy. Put on your Oprah hat. Don't endlessly seek the spouse you've lost. Be friends before you're lovers. Teach him about the birds, the bees, and Viagra. Don't keep what you're thinking a secret. Sex is wonderful, but it isn't everything. Be very sure before you call the moving man.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKMinnie McClary is the new girl and knows that she doesn't quite fit in, especially not after she lost it one day in language arts. In art, Minnie has to paint a self portrait--but how can she do this when she doesn't even know who she is anymore? Things aren't great at home, either. Her uncle Bill is building a huge replica of the Apache helicopter he flew in Iraq, and her father has blown some sort of whistle and has to start over in a new job. Then Miss Marks takes over Minnie's language class and encourages students to think critically about everything. They write their thoughts and questions in journals, marking the most private entries For Your Eyes Only. Minnie and her classmate Amira are inspired, but some people in town wonder why Miss Marks is encouraging students to ask these questions and just what, exactly, she's teaching. When a group of angry parents demands Miss Marks's suspension, Minnie finds herself asking a lot of questions--and figuring out what she has the power to change.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKRural Ireland in the 1960s: if you were a boy, you listened to Luxembourg on the wireless, went to the pictures, went hurling up the fields with your best friend, thought about what the big boys got up to with the girls, and in particular what your brother did with his girlfriend, Minnie. Your mam ruled the house and you watched out for your father - the old lad - who was liable to fly into rages and give you a right ringer when you weren't expecting it. Most of all, you knew everything about the village where you lived, and everyone there. And Tony did; he was one smart boy, ready for anything - at least he thought he was until the day he saw his father with Mrs Rourke and was involved in an accident that changed everything. Dancing with Minnie the Twig is Tony's story. It is a haunting and very special novel as, on the day of his funeral, he watches his family, friends and the rest of the community arrive at the church and prepare for the service to mark the end of his short life. In terms of its rural setting and its focus on a small community that, even in Ireland, has long since ceased to exist, the book has real echoes of Dancing at Lughnasa. It's Irish in the best sense of the word; the characters step out of the pages to meet you, and although Tony is dead, his narrative voice blazes with life. Very funny in parts, the novel is overlaid with a melancholy for times past that lingers long after the final page has been turned.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK*An Instant New York Times Bestseller!* A memoir of love and loss, of being in the right place at the right time, and of the mysterious ways a beloved pet can bring people together, from CBS Sunday Morning News correspondent and multi-Emmy-Award-winning Martha Teichner. There are true fairy tales. Stories that exist because impossible-to-explain coincidences change everything. Except in real life, not all of them have conventional, happily-ever-after endings. When Harry Met Minnie is that kind of fairy tale, with the vibrant, romantic New York City backdrop of its namesake, the movie When Harry Met Sally, and the bittersweet wisdom of Tuesdays with Morrie. There’s a special camaraderie among early-morning dog walkers. Gathering at dog runs in the park, or strolling through the farmer's market at Union Square before the bustling crowd appears, fellow pet owners become familiar–as do the personalities of their beloved animals. In this special space and time, a chance encounter with an old acquaintance changed Martha Teichner’s world. As fate would have it, her friend knew someone who was dying of cancer, from exposure to toxins after 9/11, and desperate to find a home for her dog, Harry. He was a Bull Terrier—the same breed as Martha’s dear Minnie. Would Martha consider giving Harry a safe, loving new home? In short order, boy dog meets girl dog, the fairy tale part of this story. But there is so much more to this book. After Martha agrees to meet Harry and his owner Carol, what begins as a transaction involving a dog becomes a deep and meaningful friendship between two women with complicated lives and a love of Bull Terriers in common. Through the heartbreak and grief of Carol’s illness, the bond that develops changed Martha’s life, Carol’s life, Minnie’s life, Harry’s life. As it changed Carol’s death as well. In this rich and touching narrative, Martha considers the ways our stories are shaped by the people we meet, and the profound love we can find by opening our hearts to unexpected encounters.
