In Troll Or Derby, fifteen-year-old Roller Deb is singled out by town bullies for both her skates, and for being different. When her popular homecoming queen of a sister is kidnapped by a scuzzy drug dealer, Deb must flee the trailer park in which she's grown up, and rescue her.
Along the way, Deb becomes enmeshed in the magical realm of trolls and fairies, and the blood-thirsty version of roller derby at which these beings excel. But spending too much time among the fairies comes with a price. Will Deb choose to save her sister, with the aid of a mysterious troll? Or will she be lost to the lures of roller derby, and the blonde temptress April, forever?

You Have Chosen to Remember – James Blanchard Cisneros
Genre – Personal
Rating – PG
4.4 ( 7 reviews)
Free until 25 November 2012
Knowledge, peace of mind and joy are available to you now. Anything real that has been obtained by religious leaders or spiritual gurus is also obtainable to you. In fact, knowledge, peace of mind and joy are not so much obtained as they are realized and remembered. All knowledge resides within you now. Nothing that is given to one is withheld from another.
God does not play favorites. God's love for you is in no way diminished by your perception that you are less than you are. God loves all, equally and always. Love is all you are, it is your foundation. People are taught, and have the perception that they must build on their foundation to experience peace of mind, success and joy. How and what you build on your foundation is up to you, it is your free will. However, if you simply extend what you are, you will create more beauty than anything that could or has ever been built. My brother and sister, your base, your foundation, is perfect and you need not add or subtract anything from perfection.
There are many paths you may choose to take in order to realize knowledge, peace of mind and joy in the present moment. The journey will be as complicated as you choose to make it, or as easy as you allow it to be. You may choose one path now, or you may choose to follow several different paths at the same time. Look within, and move towards those paths that offer you peace of mind and joy, and are in alignment with your present values. Do not concern yourself with the paths others may be trying to force upon you, or what others say is the correct, proper, truthful or acceptable way to grow. Within your heart there lies a memory of your trueself. It is this memory you search for, and it is this memory you will someday remember. My brother and sister, all truth lies within you. You may have temporarily forgotten this, but you have now chosen to remember.

Cousins Claire and Barloe had almost forgotten the enchanting adventures their Aunt Mim told them of as little girls. Her tales always began with, "Long ago in a far away land..." A priceless treasure, meant to forge an accord between the kingdoms of the KinKades and the Kaebreans, was taken. Betrayed, the enraged KinKades warred against Kaebrea and slaughtered its inhabitants.
Though victorious in battle, the KinKades failed to recover their cherished offering. Their consuming hatred eventually transformed the KinKades into a secretive, mythical, feared society – the Shadows. Bordering both countries, Hillael vowed to remain neutral and accepted all survivors. Secure within a prosperous nation, life in Hillael flourished. But now, conspiring to become King of Hillael, the ambitious, self-serving Rokhana forms an evil pact with the Shadows. An epic battle of good versus evil begins as Prince Gildeon ascends to the throne of Hillael.
Health Reform and ObamaCare – Kaushal Das
Genre – Non-Fiction
Rating – G
4.1 (8 reviews)
Free until 25 November 2012
The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA), is commonly called Obamacare. This is a United States Federal statute signed into law by President Barack Obama on March 23, 2010.
The law is massive and spans more than 2000 pages of obscure and legal language, not counting many other supporting documents. The law is not yet fully detailed out and many provisions are still ambiguous. Only a handful of provisions have been implemented and few are being implemented as of this writing.
This book will provide just enough information for you to understand how this plan is going to affect you, your family, your community and ultimately your country. Why not more detailed information about each and every clause, each and every provisions? Simply because they are not known neither the impact they will cause.
This is an issue where fact really doesn't seem to matter. This is something which affects each and every one of us. The issue is really not how much it is going to cost; the issue is also not whether our Health Care will be relatively better or worse; the issue is also not whether right now is the right time to implement this. This is an ideological issue, this is a political issue, and this is an issue where it seems no one can compromise.
This is an issue which needs some difficult negotiation and difficult decision making. This is an issue which can kill a politician's career; this is an issue which can have a more profound impact than the creation of Medicare and Medicaid. This is an issue which forces us to consider the most difficult question: "How much is a human life worth?" or "How much is a few months of human life worth?"
The book "Health Reform and Obamacare" is not a book about the text in the law and speculations about their meaning. This book is about how it is impacting each of our life and how it is perceived by the general public, doctors and health care professional and health care industry
