Historia
This is a love story like no other: Elinor Powell was an African-American nurse in the US military during World War II; Frederick Albert was a soldier in Hitler’s army, captured by the Allies and shipped to a prisoner-of-war camp in the Arizona desert. Like most other black nurses, Eleanor pulled a second-class assignment, in a dusty, sun-baked - and segregated - Western town. Brought together by unlikely circumstances and racist assumptions, Elinor and Frederick should have been bitter enemies; but instead, at the height of World War II, they fell in love.

It was a good read. I appreciate hearing people’s journeys and perspectives. Thank you for sharing . Sad that when we purchase stories they now erase the books.

Historia
Growing up in the Liberty City area of Miami, Florida, Katrina “Trina” Taylor spent her childhood feeling relatively sheltered by her mother and stepfather. Trina and her mother had an unbreakable bond, and Liberty City felt like a playground made just for her. And even at a young age, Trina knew what she wanted: to be a powerful, successful, and magnetic woman, a woman who was entirely self-reliant and independent. In Da Baddest, Trina’s voice is, as always, powerful, insightful, witty, and provocative, while also showcasing her vulnerability and deep love for her family, home, and music

Historia
On the morning of August 12, 2022, Salman Rushdie was standing onstage at the Chautauqua Institution, preparing to give a lecture on the importance of keeping writers safe from harm, when a man in black—black clothes, black mask—rushed down the aisle toward him, wielding a knife. His first thought: So it’s you. Here you are. What followed was a horrific act of violence that shook the literary world and beyond.

Pay attention to the wisdom with laughter this book holds
Revisado: 02-13-23
This book gave exactly what was expected a rollercoaster of emotions , stories that are relatable and palpable in every human’s existence. Puts face to people we know or just in passing. She had me laugh and cry and even downright get in touch with the ember of rage with injustices of this world. A real treat so treat yourself!

This took you down a rabbit hole. You have to pay attention to all the details given . Very vivid descriptions and characters that you could almost see the people materialize before your eyes. Her books need to be on a channel somewhere like a lifetime. Some details I was like whaaat !!! Just unimaginable storytelling. I feel in the book it was making you reflect on events in your life and well don’t listen to me go get it…

I enjoyed this book tremendously! She has a way with words that is so descriptive it as if you were teleported to the time she described. I laughed, I cried, I shook my fist . It was a range of emotions and experiences that I appreciate in a Memoir . I gasped and called my parents when I realized she was the captain lady from Star Trek! I simply knew her from OITNB and knew from that point on she had depth but not as deep as hearing her life. You must listen to her book in her words that is simply Devine!

Raw, authentic, hilarious
Revisado: 07-21-19
I have a love for Chelsea. Although this one was shorter than her other books; it was packed with so much inner reflections and I appreciate it!!! Humor is her forte but also my way to deal with hard subjects so it was a nice balance of candor and rawness to help me glide right through her book. I always want to hear her voice so never stop that or I simply wont buy again. I’m glad you have gotten to the place where you are at and I hope I , too shall follow suit.
