  The 7 Wonders of Me: A Journey from Trauma to Healing 
  At age 13, Darnell Davis stood in a courtroom as the key witness in a murder trial that sent his father to prison for life—a moment that shattered his childhood and marked the beginning of a long battle with pain, anger, and self-doubt. The Seven Wonders of Me is Darnell’s deeply personal memoir of navigating the darkness, confronting his deepest wounds, and finding healing against all odds. 
  This book offers readers more than just a story of survival; it is a roadmap to inner peace and personal growth. Using the seven chakras as a guiding framework, Darnell leads readers through each stage of his journey, from the root chakra’s call to rediscover safety and stability, to the crown chakra’s invitation to connect with a higher purpose. Each chapter is filled with raw reflections, spiritual insights, and practical tools that Darnell used to reclaim his life and embrace his own light. 
  In The 7 Wonders of Me, readers will find not only a story of triumph over trauma but also actionable steps for their own healing journey. Whether you are facing your own darkness or simply seeking a deeper connection with yourself, this book serves as a powerful reminder that the path to healing starts from within. 
  Perfect for fans of self-help, memoirs, and spiritual growth, The 7 Wonders of Me is a testament to resilience, forgiveness, and the transformative power of self-love

  In the Fourth Dimension - From...

  Clothilde Graves

  Clotilde Augusta Inez Mary Graves was born on the 3rd June 1863 at Buttevant Castle, Co. Cork, to parents with military backgrounds. 
  At age nine, the family moved to Southsea in England for yet another military posting.  Her father’s postings gave her valuable experiences that would be put to good use in later years in some of her literary works. 
  She was educated at a Catholic convent in Lourdes before returning to London in 1884 to study art in Bloomsbury.  She worked part-time at the British Museum and the Royal Female School of Art and generated further income by drawing little pen-and-ink grotesques for the comic papers.  
  A few years later a chance meeting found her writing extra lyrics for a pantomime version of Puss in Boots.  She followed up with several financially successful plays, both in London and New York, and gained a measure of notoriety in one with the comparison of marriage and prostitution.   
  Despite her dramatic success she published her first novel in 1911 under the pseudonym of Richard Dehan which she continued to use for later works.  As well as novels and plays she published collections of short stories which glow with talent and invention. 
  She was an unusual figure in London society, wearing her hair short, taking on a masculine manner and cut of clothing, and smoking cigarettes in public when such traits were considered eccentric at best.  Add to this her admired collection of Chinese and Japanese trophies, her enthusiasm for fly-fishing and her riding of a tricycle and you have a perfect image of this fascinating writer. 
  Clotilde Graves died at the convent of Our Lady of Lourdes at Hatch End in Middlesex, on the 3rd December 1932.  She was 69.

  The true story of "Mob Adjacent: A Family Memoir" follows an ordinary family's extraordinary life under the protection of the infamous Chicago Outfit. Take an acid trip down memory lane with brothers Jeffrey and Michael Gentile, Jr. as they discover a parallel world hidden behind a suburban facade. For them, "The Wonder Years" collides with "The Sopranos." Hoodlums and gangsters filter in and out of their lives and home and easily as the milkman and the mailman. In their world, the guy who robs the bakery is as respected as the guy who bakes the bread. Blame it on the company they keep. Their father grew up among the next generation of post-Capone Chicago mobsters and kept them as trusted friends and honorary uncles to his children for the rest of his life. Mike Gentile, Sr. wasn’t IN the mob, but he was NEAR it – mob adjacent. "Mob Adjacent: A Family Memoir" presents a who’s who of Chicago crime bosses – Tony Accardo, Frank Nitti, Sam Giancana, Joe Lombardo, and an assortment of hoodlums, gangsters, bone breakers, loan sharks, and second-story guys, with celebrity cameo appearances by Frank Sinatra, Leo Durocher, Jackie Gleason, Art Carney, Joan Collins, Liza Minnelli, and Elizabeth Taylor. For the Gentile brothers, living mob adjacent delivers benefits and teaches lessons. Grab a front- row seat to as much real-life mob drama as a Martin Scorsese/Francis Ford Coppola movie marathon.

  “You cannot put it down. You want a Netflix series, this is it.” -- Roe Conn, WGN Radio
