  Tap Dancing to Work (2012) looks at the long life of investor and philanthropist Warren Buffett, chairman and CEO of Berkshire Hathaway and one of America’s richest men. Carol Loomis, who led coverage of Buffett for decades at Fortune magazine, collected more than 40 articles along with excerpts from Buffett’s annual letters to shareholders to showcase his ideas on just about everything. Some articles are lighthearted, such as one that explores whether Warren and singer Jimmy Buffett are related (maybe). For the most part, though, the articles highlight his investment strategies, his long-time friendship with Microsoft’s Bill Gates, and his profound impact on the US economy, the stock market, and CEOs worldwide.

  Stoneface - Memoir of a Defiant...

  Former Premier of the Northwest Territories Stephen Kakfwi transforms politics into philosophy and sheds light on a history that too many Canadians have long ignored. 
   
   
   
  Stephen Kakfwi was born in a bush camp on the edge of the Arctic Circle in 1950. In a family torn apart by tuberculosis, alcohol, and the traumas endured by generations in residential school, he emerged as a respected Dene elder and eventually the Premier of the Northwest Territories. Kakfwi, schooled on civil rights and 1960s protest songs, dedicated himself to supporting chiefs in their claim to land that had been taken away from them and in their determination to seize control of the colonial political system. Kakfwi's life blends traditional Dene practices with the daily demands of political office—hunting moose one day and negotiating with European diamond merchants the next. Throughout his career, Kakfwi understood that he held the power to make change and through traditional storytelling, he has helped to change the story of the North. In his candid description of the loneliness of leadership and his embrace of Dene spirituality, Kakfwi's Stoneface transforms politics into philosophy and an intensely personal guide to reconciliation.

  Essays: First Series Friendship

  Ralph Waldo Emerson

  A true friend is a paradox—both a mirror and a mystery, a presence that steadies yet unsettles. Emerson's Friendship is not a sentimental tribute but an exploration, as sharp as it is reverent. He does not merely celebrate companionship; he dissects it, questioning the forces that draw souls together and the invisible tensions that hold them apart.
  Friendship, in Emerson's vision, is not mere comfort—it is a force, a demand, a test. It requires space as much as closeness, silence as much as words. It thrives not in constant nearness but in the charged air of mutual respect, in the quiet certainty that the bond endures, even when distance stretches between.
  His words do not ask for easy agreement; they provoke. He suggests that the highest friendships are not found but forged, not effortless but exacting. The reader who enters Friendship expecting warmth may find, instead, a bracing clarity—a recognition that true companionship is both a gift and a discipline, an art as much as an affection. Emerson does not offer a guide to making friends; he offers something rarer: an insight into why, despite all risks, we seek them still.

  I got naked so I could produce an album. 
  Rock n Pole is the raw, hilarious, and unfiltered memoir of Aimee Bushong—an aspiring rock star who stripped to fund her music career and refused to give up on her dream, no matter how sideways it got. 
  By day, she fronted a gritty indie band. By night, she danced under blacklights and hustled lap dances in Denver’s sleaziest clubs—juggling guitar strings and g-strings, heartbreak and hangovers, hope and humiliation. 
  Told with biting wit and brutal honesty, this isn’t a story about victimhood. It’s a story about survival, ambition, absurdity—and doing whatever it takes to make art in a world that doesn’t give a f—k. 
  If you've ever chased a dream, defied expectations, or lived a double life just to keep the lights on—this audiobook is for you.
