Synopsis

If there is any virtue in advertising, and a journalist should be the last person to say that there is not, the American nation is rapidly reaching a state of physical efficiency the likes of which the world has probably not seen since the days of Sparta. In every American newspaper and every American monthly magazine there are countless illustrated advertisements for "physical culture specialists" who guarantee to make every organ of the body perform its duties with the mighty precision of a 60-hp car that never breaks down.

    Climate Worrier: A Hypocrite’s...

    Bestselling author Colm O’Regan is a worrier. A professional one. Caution is his watchword. Risk aversion is his love language. Now Colm is grappling with the biggest worry of all: the whole ‘planet being on fire’ thing and how exactly we can help. 
    Don’t worry, this isn’t a book telling you how to live off the grid and make your own planet-friendly soap from woodlice (that’s the sequel). Instead, Climate Worrier is about the journey, about trying (and often failing) to be part of the solution to the big issues, while not despairing at the endless hypocrisies that come from also being part of the problem. It’s about trying to be become the greenest version of yourself; about joining the ranks of those who give a shit and do a bit. 
    So if you’ve fretted about: 
    - using your diesel car to get closer to nature, 
    - eating your ethical food off a plastic plate, 
    - existing 
    and have a general feeling we’re all doing too little, too late, Climate Worrier is the book for you. 
    In Climate Worrier, O'Regan offers a humorous and relatable take on the struggles of trying to live an environmentally friendly lifestyle. His essays on the topic are both enlightening and entertaining, making this book a top pick for environmentalists and conservationists alike. 
    For fans of Emer Mclysaght (Oh My God, What a Complete Aisling), and Britney Spears (The woman in me).

    Soundtrack Of A Misfit: -...

    This is a debut work by Washington, DC area native writer and poet. It's a coming of age tale about a late bloomer who grew up feeling like a misfit. It's also the story of a young Jewish woman who wanted to be an edgy punk rocker but was too afraid to incur motherly guilt. True to her character, she weaves her ardor for music and nature all throughout the book. The author grew up in the 80's when not much was known about Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD); something she was diagnosed with at the young age of five. She always struggled to keep up in classes and was teased for being too slow, too sensitive and too short. As a young girl and adolescent, her passion for music and the outdoors allowed her to escape reality. As life became more complex, the author turned to adventure, alcohol, marijuana and men.  
    She had zany experiences traveling throughout the United States, as well as Jamaica and Israel -- always on a quest to find "her" people and a place of belonging. The author epitomized "failure to launch" and tried her hand at a number of careers including: being a barista, a Montessori elementary school teacher; a recycling specialist; an administrative assistant; and an entrepreneur before finally landing. Eventually this small, Jewish girl with ADHD transformed herself into a woman of grit and grace. She found she belonged to a sober community that she never imagined she'd join and today, uses her life's lessons as a power for good.  
    The author now helps those struggling with ADHD, addiction, anxiety and other mental health issues to focus on their own paths to healing. She once berated herself for being an unruly dandelion stuck among organized rows of roses. Today, Rachel Leigh Wills is proud to call herself a wildflower and help others to sow seeds of self-compassion and self-esteem. Hope you'll enjoy reading. Sincerely, Rachel Leigh Wills
