In an incomplete autobiography, and in numerous publications and voluminous correspondence with Thomas Jefferson and many others, he argued and railed against those who disagreed with him or made little of his contribution to our country's political foundations. And indeed, future generations did slight him, elevating Jefferson and Madison to lofty heights with Washington while Adams remained way back in the second tier. Now, in a witty, clear, and thoughtful narrative of Adams's later life at his home in Quincy, Joseph Ellis explores the mind and personality of the man as well as the earlier events that shaped his thinking. Readers will discover Adams to be both contentious and lovable, generous and petty, and the most intellectually profound of the revolutionary generation, a man who may have contributed to the earlier underestimates of his role in history, and whose perspective on America's prospects has relevance for us today.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kpqwq81f2a4zdkq20zhxbfc2.jpg","L#L}1xayWBj[~qj[%Mj[nNof%Mof",1993,283,[206],{"id":177,"slug":178,"name":179},[208,209],{"id":28,"name":29,"slug":30,"is_fiction":18},{"id":32,"name":33,"slug":34,"is_fiction":18},[],{"pace":152,"complexity":7,"audience":154,"mood":212,"themes":215,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[213,214],"intellectual","reflective",[],{"id":217,"slug":218,"title":219,"description":220,"primary_cover_url":221,"cover_blurhash":222,"first_publish_year":223,"community_rating_avg":7,"community_rating_count":13,"page_count":224,"authors":225,"genres":230,"series":237,"enrichment":238},"01kx2emgg10e0ns5yv7ezvqggp","motherhood-so-white-pgfq","Motherhood So White","\"In America, Mother = White. That's what Nefertiti, a single African American woman, discovered when she decided she wanted to adopt a Black baby boy out of the foster care system. Eager to finally join the motherhood ranks, Nefertiti was shocked when people started asking her why she wanted to adopt a 'crack baby' or said that she would never be able to raise a Black son on her own. She realized that American society saw motherhood through a white lens, and that there would be no easy understanding or acceptance of the kind of family she hoped to build. Motherhood So White is the story of Nefertiti's fight to create the family she always knew she was meant to have and the story of motherhood that all American families need now. In this unflinching account of her parenting journey, Nefertiti examines the history of adoption in the African American community, faces off against stereotypes of single, Black motherhood, and confronts the reality of raising children of color in racially charged, modern-day America. Honest, vulnerable, and uplifting, Motherhood So White reveals what Nefertiti knew all along - that the only requirement for a successful family is one raised with love.\"--Page [2] of cover.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx2emggkpna1h2ff0m530hra.jpg?v=3b27d7c8e8","LQP?,Z?b~qD%RjRjRjtR_3RjD%-;",2019,304,[226],{"id":227,"slug":228,"name":229},"01kx2emggezp9e1xrj3g10vv7y","nefertiti-austin-kta7","Nefertiti Austin",[231,235,236],{"id":232,"name":233,"slug":234,"is_fiction":18},89,"Memoir","memoir",{"id":36,"name":37,"slug":38,"is_fiction":18},{"id":28,"name":29,"slug":30,"is_fiction":18},[],{"pace":152,"complexity":7,"audience":154,"mood":239,"themes":241,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[240,214],"inspiring",[],{"id":243,"slug":244,"title":245,"description":246,"primary_cover_url":247,"cover_blurhash":248,"first_publish_year":249,"community_rating_avg":7,"community_rating_count":13,"page_count":250,"authors":251,"genres":253,"series":258,"enrichment":259},"01kpqwnck7etw5swms867stx98","sie-schufen-amerika-maef","Sie schufen Amerika","This book examines the lives and legacies of the founding fathers of the United States, exploring their individual contributions and the collective challenges they faced in shaping a new nation.

Set in Milwaukee during the 1970s and early '80s, the book follows both boys through Eastview Junior High and Revere High School — a period marked by bullying, isolation, and the slow hardening of Dahmer's pathology. Told in stark black-and-white panels, Backderf reconstructs their shared adolescence: Dahmer's binge drinking, his obsession with roadkill, his desperate need for attention, and the failure of every adult around him to see what was already forming beneath the surface. It is a rare work that forces readers to confront how proximity can mask evil until it is too late.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Fworks\u002F01\u002F01kjv3phk4vy4k33pch421pttw.jpg","L07n5oP:L#56~p~qJC9a00S6~q-7",2012,232,[421],{"id":422,"slug":423,"name":424},"01kjv3phn2cnh3m2jthg4ser3q","derf-backderf-5xgg","Derf Backderf",[426,427,431,432,436,440],{"id":28,"name":29,"slug":30,"is_fiction":18},{"id":428,"name":429,"slug":430,"is_fiction":17},41,"Psychological Thriller","psychological-thriller",{"id":391,"name":392,"slug":393,"is_fiction":18},{"id":433,"name":434,"slug":435,"is_fiction":18},104,"True Crime","true-crime",{"id":437,"name":438,"slug":439,"is_fiction":17},18,"Graphic Novels","graphic-novels",{"id":441,"name":442,"slug":443,"is_fiction":18},83,"Sociology","sociology",[],{"pace":152,"complexity":7,"audience":154,"mood":446,"themes":448,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[157,447],"tense",[],[450,572,601],{"key":451,"params":452,"works":453},"genre_year",{"genre":33,"year":9},[454,475,487,515,528,549],{"id":455,"slug":456,"title":457,"description":458,"primary_cover_url":459,"cover_blurhash":460,"first_publish_year":461,"community_rating_avg":7,"community_rating_count":13,"page_count":224,"authors":462,"genres":464,"series":469,"enrichment":470},"01kpqwq7rfj91b45aaj4jg0bhq","american-creation-lab9","American Creation","Joseph J.

A deft indictment of the marital ideal, as well as a celebration of the dissent that constitutes adultery, delivered in pointed daggers of prose” (The New Yorker). Who would dream of being against love? No one. Love is, as everyone knows, a mysterious and all-controlling force, with vast power over our thoughts and life decisions. But is there something a bit worrisome about all this uniformity of opinion? Is this the one subject about which no disagreement will be entertained, about which one truth alone is permissible? Consider that the most powerful organized religions produce the occasional heretic; every ideology has its apostates; even sacred cows find their butchers. Except for love. Hence the necessity for a polemic against it. A polemic is designed to be the prose equivalent of a small explosive device placed under your E-Z-Boy lounger. It won’t injure you (well not severely); it’s just supposed to shake things up and rattle a few convictions.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx24mzg8wfnnbds3jgb3r4k3.jpg?v=48cfb2aea4","L7P?{s=|u3*I-Ua1XlTI.RtlnOrr",224,[585],{"id":586,"slug":587,"name":588},"01kx24mzg14wnwr840tjk0bw10","laura-kipnis-qoft","Laura Kipnis",[590,591,595],{"id":441,"name":442,"slug":443,"is_fiction":18},{"id":592,"name":593,"slug":594,"is_fiction":18},86,"Essays","essays",{"id":36,"name":37,"slug":38,"is_fiction":18},[],{"pace":152,"complexity":7,"audience":154,"mood":598,"themes":600,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[156,599],"satirical",[],{"key":602,"params":603,"works":604},"genre",{"genre":37},[605,627],{"id":606,"slug":607,"title":608,"description":609,"primary_cover_url":610,"cover_blurhash":611,"first_publish_year":612,"community_rating_avg":7,"community_rating_count":13,"page_count":613,"authors":614,"genres":619,"series":623,"enrichment":624},"01kx26w4ztwmytmkmfesv4xyt2","black-owned-gol2","Black-Owned","**L.A. Times Book Prize Finalist** **A November LibraryReads Pick** Longtime NBC News reporter Char Adams writes a deeply compelling and rigorously reported history of Black political movements told through the lens of Black-owned bookstores, which have been centers for organizing from abolition to the Civil Rights Movement to Black Lives Matter. In Black-Owned, Char Adams celebrates the living history of Black bookstores. Packed with stories of activism, espionage, violence, community, and perseverance, Black-Owned starts with the first Black-owned bookstore, which an abolitionist opened in New York in 1834, and after the bookshop’s violent demise, Black book-lovers carried on its cause. In the twentieth century, civil rights and Black Power activists started a Black bookstore boom nationwide. Malcolm X gave speeches in front of the National Memorial African Book Store in Harlem—a place dubbed “Speakers’ Corner”—and later, Black bookstores became targets of FBI agents, police, and racist vigilantes. Still, stores continued to fuel Black political movements. Amid these struggles, bookshops were also places of celebration: Eartha Kitt and Langston Hughes held autograph parties at their local Black-owned bookstores. Maya Angelou became the face of National Black Bookstore Week. And today a new generation of Black activists is joining the radical bookstore tradition, with rapper Noname opening her Radical Hood Library in Los Angeles and several stores making national headlines when they were overwhelmed with demand in the Black Lives Matter era. As Adams makes clear, in an time of increasing repression, Black bookstores are needed now more than ever. Full of vibrant characters and written with cinematic flair, Black-Owned is an enlightening story of community, resistance, and joy.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx26w50cmeg92rs617tqncyb.jpg?v=39cf1d6e73","LDNv3QwG}P%1i^F$Vro#}%NHJXRO",2025,305,[615],{"id":616,"slug":617,"name":618},"01kx26w5074ybv35fhnesr9fzb","char-adams-pd95","Char Adams",[620,621,622],{"id":565,"name":566,"slug":567,"is_fiction":17},{"id":36,"name":37,"slug":38,"is_fiction":18},{"id":182,"name":183,"slug":184,"is_fiction":18},[],{"pace":152,"complexity":7,"audience":154,"mood":625,"themes":626,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[240,214],[],{"id":217,"slug":218,"title":219,"description":220,"primary_cover_url":221,"cover_blurhash":222,"first_publish_year":223,"community_rating_avg":7,"community_rating_count":13,"page_count":224,"authors":628,"genres":630,"series":634,"enrichment":635},[629],{"id":227,"slug":228,"name":229},[631,632,633],{"id":232,"name":233,"slug":234,"is_fiction":18},{"id":36,"name":37,"slug":38,"is_fiction":18},{"id":28,"name":29,"slug":30,"is_fiction":18},[],{"pace":152,"complexity":7,"audience":154,"mood":636,"themes":637,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[240,214],[],[]]
