After a shocking diagnosis for a rare pituitary disease, and with her eighteen-year marriage in shambles, Risa's life has fallen far from picture-perfect. Recovering from brain surgery and desperate to get back to her former self, she signs up for the bike tour of a lifetime-six weeks from Canada to Mexico on the Pacific Coast Highway. The old Risa could have done the ride in her sleep, but for the new Risa, trapped in a body that no longer feels like her own and stuck in the company of her brain tumor, Bubba, the ride becomes a challenge unlike anything she's ever faced. As Risa pedals through rain, pain, and the ghosts of her memories, she wonders if the woman she once was will ever return or whether the new woman rising up in her place might just be the person she was meant to be all along. A remarkable story of transformation and resilience, The Road Unpaved speaks to shifting gears to navigate life's roadblocks and live a life without limits-a life fully unleashed.Ver livro

In The Torture of Love, the second volume of The Revisionist series, Michael A. Delitala guides readers through a deeply emotional journey of love, heartbreak, and self-discovery. Rather than focusing on the individuals from his past, the narrative explores the recurring patterns that define these relationships. Each person represents a different emotional cycle that keeps him tethered to familiar habits—until he learns to break free. This memoir isn't just about romance; it's about the growth that comes from recognizing and breaking emotional patterns to find one's authentic self. Michael A. Delitala begins with reflections on a strict upbringing, which limited his ability to express individuality. This foundation sets the stage for the romantic struggles that follow—where passion, insecurity, and emotional distance become familiar themes. The women in his life are presented as symbols of repeated patterns, not named as individuals, emphasizing the idea that we often fall into familiar cycles in love until we learn to change. By reflecting on these relationships, The Revisionist discovers how breaking these patterns leads to personal growth and deeper self-understanding.Ver livro
