  The first thing you will notice when you meet Kechi Okwuchi is her scars. One of just two survivors of a devastating plane crash that killed more than 100 people, sixteen-year-old Kechi was left with third-degree burns over sixty-five percent of her body. More Than My Scars is her incredible story. A story of not just surviving impossible odds but thriving in a world that is too often caught up with how we look on the outside rather than seeing that our true value is within. 
   
   
   
  Now in her early thirties, Kechi has spent the last sixteen years refusing to be defined by her trauma. Follow her as she decides for herself what role her scars will play in her life before society decides for her. Her strong sense of identity, rooted in seeing herself the way God sees her, has allowed her to live authentically in a world that constantly seeks to define us by its ever-changing (and ever-shallow) standards. Kechi's story will inspire you to love and accept yourself as you are and confidently present your true self to the world.

  My Socially Hazardous Life 2 1 2

  By a self-made millionaire, unapologetic artist, and global misfit Buckle up for a wild ride through the unfiltered mind of a man who made millions slapping stickers on society’s expectations and then threw it all to the wind. From sexcapades in Colombia to lockdown life in Vietnam, from chopper rides through Long Beach to whorehouses in Eastern Europe, this brutally honest memoir is raw, hilarious, offensive, and deeply human. He's been rich and reckless, poor and poetic. He’s dodged rip tides, dreamt of Candace Owens with devil tails, and cursed at the ghost of Trump in a psychedelic nightmare. He’s slept with models, fought acid reflux, and tried to win back a son lost to time and distance. There are no filters here. No apologies. Just the chaotic, horny, and hilarious truth. This is not for the easily offended. This is not for the faint-hearted. This is My Socially Hazardous Life Vol. 2. Drenched in sarcasm. Fueled by travel. Driven by rebellion. If Hunter S. Thompson and Bukowski had a baby raised by a pissed-off surfer from Long Beach, this would be his book. Are you ready for the ride?

  Witness - Stories

  What does it mean to really see the world around you—to bear witness? And what does it cost us, both to see and not to see? 
   
  In these ten stories, each set in the changing landscapes of contemporary New York City, a range of characters—from children to grandmothers to ghosts—live through the responsibility of perceiving and the moral challenge of speaking up or taking action. Though they strive to  
  connect with, stand up for, care for, and remember one another, they often fall short, and the structures they build around these ambitions and failures shape their futures as well as the legacies and prospects of their communities and their city. 
   
  In its portraits of families and friendships lost and found, the paradox of intimacy, the long shadow of grief, and the meaning of home, Witness enacts its own testimony. Here is a world where fortunes can be made and stolen in just a few generations, where strangers might sometimes  
  show kindness while those we trust—doctors, employers, siblings—too often turn away, where joy comes in snatches: flowers on a windowsill, dancing in the street, glimpsing your purpose, change on the horizon. 
   
  With prose as upendingly beautiful as it is artfully, seamlessly crafted, Jamel Brinkley offers nothing less than the full scope of life and death and change in the great, unending drama of the city.
