Fick's training begins with a hellish summer at Quantico, and advances to the pinnacle--Recon--four years later, on the eve of war with Iraq. Along the way, he learns to shoot a man a mile away, stays awake for seventy-two hours straight, endures interrogation and torture, learns to swim with Navy SEALs, and much more. His vast skill set puts him in front of the front lines. Fick unveils the process that makes Marine officers such legendary leaders and shares his hard-won insights into the differences between the military ideals he learned and military practice, which can mock those ideals.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kwzr1e3ttk7389h0z12gygkr.jpg?v=3c57394c21","LLQT4N%M~qM{a#RjM{%Maxt7xuRj",2005,391,[127],{"id":128,"slug":129,"name":130},"01kwzr1e35avyd372f05y12k4m","nathaniel-c-fick-ir9j","Nathaniel C.

In our mothers' day there were good mothers, neglectful mothers, and occasionally great mothers.Today we have only Bad Mothers.If you work, you're neglectful; if you stay home, you're smothering. If you discipline, you're buying them a spot on the shrink's couch; if you let them run wild, they will be into drugs by seventh grade. If you buy organic, you're spending their college fund; if you don't, you're risking all sorts of allergies and illnesses.Is it any wonder so many women refer to themselves at one time or another as \"a bad mother\"? Ayelet Waldman says it's time for women to get over it and get on with it, in a book that is sure to spark the same level of controversy as her now legendary \"Modern Love\" piece, in which she confessed to loving her husband more than her children.Covering topics as diverse as the hysteria of competitive parenting (Whose toddler can recite the planets in order from the sun?), the relentless pursuits of the Bad Mother police, balancing the work-family dynamic, and the bane of every mother's existence (homework, that is), Bad Mother illuminates the anxieties that riddle motherhood today, while providing women with the encouragement they need to give themselves a break.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx294e7p57mf2qqewbpdyx8v.jpg?v=d25f3af4c2","LBNd%gxG77WZY8tRxtt61SWBrpj]",2009,213,[210],{"id":211,"slug":212,"name":213},"01kph46ag4wr9n2masb0c0rh7h","ayelet-waldman-d8ha","Ayelet Waldman",[215,219,220],{"id":216,"name":217,"slug":218,"is_fiction":14},119,"Humor","humor",{"id":28,"name":29,"slug":30,"is_fiction":15},{"id":133,"name":134,"slug":135,"is_fiction":15},[],{"pace":76,"complexity":8,"audience":79,"mood":223,"themes":224,"setting_period":8,"summary":8,"content_warnings":8},[81,115],[],{"id":226,"slug":227,"title":228,"description":229,"primary_cover_url":230,"cover_blurhash":231,"first_publish_year":124,"community_rating_avg":8,"community_rating_count":10,"page_count":232,"authors":233,"genres":238,"series":241,"enrichment":242},"01kx2kqbsrmqc93fvhwevt5mf6","cracks-in-my-foundation-xl6c","Cracks in My Foundation","Go further under the covers and stay in bed a little longer with Marian Keyes in this winning follow-up to her smash essay collection, Under the Duvet.

How does a girl—abandoned by her mother at age two and orphaned at thirteen when her beloved father dies—find her place in the world? This memoir is the story of Nadia creating her own solid ground across countries and continents. I know the struggle of rebuilding your life in an unfamiliar place. While some of you might be familiar with that and some might not, I hope you’ll take as much inspiration and hope from her story as I did.” —MALALA YOUSAFZAI ​ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF 2021 SELECTED BY VULTURE, TIME, ESQUIRE, NPR, AND VOGUE! Young Nadia Owusu followed her father, a United Nations official, from Europe to Africa and back again. Just as she and her family settled into a new home, her father would tell them it was time to say their goodbyes. The instability wrought by Nadia’s nomadic childhood was deepened by family secrets and fractures, both lived and inherited. Her Armenian American mother, who abandoned Nadia when she was two, would periodically reappear, only to vanish again. Her father, a Ghanaian, the great hero of her life, died when she was thirteen. After his passing, Nadia’s stepmother weighed her down with a revelation that was either a bombshell secret or a lie, rife with shaming innuendo. With these and other ruptures, Nadia arrived in New York as a young woman feeling stateless, motherless, and uncertain about her future, yet eager to find her own identity. What followed, however, were periods of depression in which she struggled to hold herself and her siblings together. “A magnificent, complex assessment of selfhood and why it matters” (Elle), Aftershocks depicts the way she hauled herself from the wreckage of her life’s perpetual quaking, the means by which she has finally come to understand that the only ground firm enough to count on is the one written into existence by her own hand. “Full of narrative risk and untrammeled lyricism” (The Washington Post), Aftershocks joins the likes of Don’t Let’s Go to the Dogs Tonight and William Styron’s Darkness Visible, and does for race identity what Maggie Nelson does for gender identity in The Argonauts.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx2ezfaspm4khb55e9hdag3g.jpg?v=abd45b6424","LZM3Tb=Y}qW,:+O=,pt7BoIpwgV[",2021,[282],{"id":283,"slug":284,"name":285},"01kx2ezfanvz9stpf6aa86geg2","nadia-owusu-iafq","Nadia Owusu",[287,288,289],{"id":133,"name":134,"slug":135,"is_fiction":15},{"id":28,"name":29,"slug":30,"is_fiction":15},{"id":191,"name":192,"slug":193,"is_fiction":15},[],{"pace":292,"complexity":8,"audience":79,"mood":293,"themes":294,"setting_period":8,"summary":8,"content_warnings":8},"moderate",[198,115,82],[],{"id":296,"slug":297,"title":298,"description":8,"primary_cover_url":299,"cover_blurhash":300,"first_publish_year":301,"community_rating_avg":155,"community_rating_count":78,"page_count":302,"authors":303,"genres":308,"series":311,"enrichment":312},"01kx2hfpwe2kjkrnw5ysrp9sxh","black-box-37u9","Black Box","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx2hfpx18apfhwd0mbknh1qp.jpg?v=6fa5a25aab","L7B:v#ay00fR00ofWBWB~qayWCt7",2024,304,[304],{"id":305,"slug":306,"name":307},"01kpd7rtqty3fz6ntkekp8m11s","henry-louis-gates-jr-jcwt","Henry Louis Gates, Jr.",[309,310],{"id":28,"name":29,"slug":30,"is_fiction":15},{"id":133,"name":134,"slug":135,"is_fiction":15},[],{"pace":112,"complexity":8,"audience":79,"mood":313,"themes":314,"setting_period":8,"summary":8,"content_warnings":8},[115,82],[],{"id":316,"slug":317,"title":318,"description":319,"primary_cover_url":320,"cover_blurhash":321,"first_publish_year":322,"community_rating_avg":323,"community_rating_count":78,"page_count":324,"authors":325,"genres":330,"series":333,"enrichment":334},"01kx2jcfkv5sjapdhn7vccf73x","necessary-losses-08mc","Necessary losses","On verso title page: The loves, illusions, dependencies, and impossible expectations that all of us have to give up in order to grow.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx2jcfnjmcscwffj8w971tgj.jpg?v=8ff1295377","LFN_AYx[-=xv00R*E0fP1nfRa$j]",1986,"4.00",499,[326],{"id":327,"slug":328,"name":329},"01kjyy56makfaj806jjkqxbxwn","judith-viorst-we7n","Judith Viorst",[331,332],{"id":261,"name":262,"slug":263,"is_fiction":15},{"id":28,"name":29,"slug":30,"is_fiction":15},[],{"pace":112,"complexity":8,"audience":79,"mood":335,"themes":336,"setting_period":8,"summary":8,"content_warnings":8},[115,114],[],[338,414],{"key":339,"params":340,"works":341},"genre_year",{"genre":29,"year":9},[342,360,393],{"id":343,"slug":344,"title":345,"description":8,"primary_cover_url":346,"cover_blurhash":347,"first_publish_year":180,"community_rating_avg":8,"community_rating_count":10,"page_count":8,"authors":348,"genres":353,"series":356,"enrichment":357},"01kx2449ya9wc7q3afbeqy1rv5","born-fire-dragon-wffj","Born Fire Dragon","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx2449yxwqx1erw4vjtrgmfb.jpg?v=64fdf85d4f","LzM=@CVtkWkC~Vt6ShaytSW.t6n%",[349],{"id":350,"slug":351,"name":352},"01kx2449yqdaxnzktppss18xjd","susan-kiskis-846m","Susan Kiskis",[354,355],{"id":133,"name":134,"slug":135,"is_fiction":15},{"id":28,"name":29,"slug":30,"is_fiction":15},[],{"pace":292,"complexity":8,"audience":79,"mood":358,"themes":359,"setting_period":8,"summary":8,"content_warnings":8},[82,115],[],{"id":361,"slug":362,"title":363,"description":364,"primary_cover_url":365,"cover_blurhash":366,"first_publish_year":367,"community_rating_avg":8,"community_rating_count":10,"page_count":368,"authors":369,"genres":374,"series":385,"enrichment":386},"01kx243x2f47xn3vcn12s3bamv","starcrossed-699d","Starcrossed,","Her parents said, \"You're marrying a seventeen-year-old Jewish high school student?\" His parents said, \"You're in love with a twenty-one-year-old Catholic senior in college?\" And then the fun began . . . .

As featured in When They See Us—the Netflix limited series created, written, and directed by Ava DuVernay that retells the story of the Central Park Five, the young men wrongly accused of this crime. Shortly after 9:00 p.m. on April 19, 1989, a young woman jogs alone near 102nd Street in New York City's Central Park. She is attacked, raped, savagely beaten, and left for dead. Hours later she arrives at the emergency room—comatose—she has lost so much blood that her doctors believe it’s a miracle she's still alive. Meet Trisha Meili, the Central Park Jogger. I Am the Central Park Jogger recounts the mesmerizing, inspiring, often wrenching story of human strength and transcendent recovery. Called “Hero of the Month” by Glamour magazine, Meili tells us who she was before the attack—a young Wall Street professional with a promising future—and who she has become: a woman who learned how to read, write, walk, talk, and love again...and turn horrifying violence and certain death into extraordinary healing and victorious life. With “moments of unexpected grace and insights into life’s challenges….Meili’s story—the story the public never knew—is unforgettable” (The Buffalo News).","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx23jntf5755fe2s0raaj2zw.jpg?v=02d0d32171","LVPP_hyCXlMd.TRksWo}tnVsVstR",2003,280,[428],{"id":429,"slug":430,"name":431},"01kx23jnt94mkg614b97mbk48t","trisha-meili-nggg","Trisha Meili",[433,434,438,439],{"id":28,"name":29,"slug":30,"is_fiction":15},{"id":435,"name":436,"slug":437,"is_fiction":15},104,"True Crime","true-crime",{"id":191,"name":192,"slug":193,"is_fiction":15},{"id":266,"name":267,"slug":268,"is_fiction":15},[],{"pace":112,"complexity":8,"audience":79,"mood":442,"themes":443,"setting_period":8,"summary":8,"content_warnings":8},[82,115],[],{"id":445,"slug":446,"title":447,"description":448,"primary_cover_url":449,"cover_blurhash":450,"first_publish_year":451,"community_rating_avg":155,"community_rating_count":78,"page_count":452,"authors":453,"genres":458,"series":463,"enrichment":464},"01kx23z03dzj3e7ja6t8fa2b9v","not-my-type-one-woman-vs-a-president-6q6d","Not My Type One Woman Vs. a President","AN INSTANT INDIE, USA TODAY, AND NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER! \"Delightful . . .

But what about E. Jean’s side of the story? What about the flight suits, the bottle of green Chartreuse, and the bob? Not My Type puts you in a better seat than the jury box. You will hear Alina Habba, Esq., “Trump’s most beautiful attorney,” asking E. Jean to “list” the people she has “slept with”—a list which turns out to be so marvelous, it is worth twice the price of this book. You will experience the fear and loathing of E. Jean’s “psychiatric evaluations,” and hear how she tries to cheer up Trump’s gloomy, $750-an-hour shrink by telling him about the strange white tablet Hunter S. Thompson gave her. You will be in on the choosing of the “clothes for court,” and the creation of “the look”: a look that will help the jury connect the younger E. Jean who is attacked by Trump in Bergdorf’s with the older E. Jean who sits in the courtroom.
