It's time for a return to Radical Holiness. Welcome to the 21st century where you can now purchase and exchange personalities, depending on mood and circumstance; where you are told that you can be anyone you want to be, and identity is no longer based in a sense of self but rather in the imagery you choose at that moment. The Bible contains a radically different way of understanding our identity. The path that God has chosen for us to discover who we really are is the path of holiness. The most exciting thing is that this path is not for otherworldy saints, rather it is a path of earthy, gutsy holiness. It's a path that is not about basing your life on this world or of shunning your desires. Instead, it is about bringing your hopes, your dreams, your brokenness, your desires, your humanness under the Lordship of Christ. By doing this we don’t just discover a new way of living out our faith, we discover a liberating, revolutionary, life-embracing way of being truly human.

The Vertical Path penned by celebrity life-coach, Tamanna C Life can be complicated. It can be overwhelming and devastating. But it can also be beautiful and joyous. So much depends on our outlook and ability to embrace our experiences as lessons. The insightful lessons in this book will help the readers to accept the challenges they face with grace and dignity. Along with simplifying complex metaphysical concepts, the author has also provided easy-to-follow practical guidelines that will be beneficial for everyone, regardless of how far along they are on the spiritual path. Come along on this journey where you will fall in love with the path and not the destination! There are some answers which you can only find through spirituality and Tamanna really helped me in my tough times in finding those answers. Her approach is very simple and not something which is difficult to follow. Raj Kumar Rao, National Award-winning Actor. Tamanna connected me with the invisible universal energies whose absence were perhaps blocking my potential. She is a spiritual link to the amazing secrets and messages hidden in the cosmos to transform our everyday lives. Hansel Mehta, National Award-winning director As a leadership coach, I have always felt that there is a missing element that is needed to make leadership more human yet transformational. I have been tempted often to believe that this missing link is spirituality. But before Tamanna, I had never come across an interpretation of spirituality that was practical, believable and yet transformational. Viral Kalra, Executive Coach

A raucous and surprising novel filled with wonderful details about wine, Rex Pickett's Sideways is also a thought-provoking and funny book about men, women, and human relationships. The basis for the 2004 comedy-drama road movie of the same name starring Paul Giamatti and Thomas Haden Church. Sideways is the story of two friends-Miles and Jack-going away together for the last time to steep themselves in everything that makes it good to be young and single: pinot, putting, and prowling bars. In the week before Jack plans to marry, the pair heads out from Los Angeles to the Santa Ynez wine country. For Jack, the tasting tour is Seven Days to D-Day, his final stretch of freedom. For Miles--who has divorced his wife, is facing an uncertain career and has lost his passion for living-the trip is a week long opportunity to evaluate his past, his future and himself.

Hilarious, deeply moving, mind-bending, original, romantic, and surprising, this debut teen novel by Emil Ostrovski will appeal to fans of John Green, Chris Crutcher, and Andrew Smith. Gary Shteyngart, author of the New York Times bestseller Super Sad True Love Story, says: "Do yourself a favor and get inside a car with Emil Ostrovski immediately! The Paradox of Vertical Flight is an amazing road trip. You're in for one heck of a ride." An Indie Next Pick! On the morning of his eighteenth birthday, Jack Polovsky kidnaps his own baby, names him Socrates, stocks up on baby supplies at Walmart, and hits the road with his best friend, Tommy, and with the baby's mother, Jess. As they head to Grandma's house (eluding the police at every turn), Jack tells baby Socrates the Greek myths—because all stories spring from those stories, really. Even this one. By turns funny, heart wrenching, and wholly original, this debut novel by Emil Ostrovski explores the nature of family, love, friendship, fatherhood, and myth. "Shares a sense of humor and philosophical bent with such YA authors as John Green and Chris Crutcher. But the story and likable characters are Ostrovsky's own, a delightful mix of quirky, intelligent, naive, well-intentioned, and just plain dumb teens. A delightful success."—ALA Booklist
