Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Each year Congress passes a budget, allocating funds to federal programs to include housing and homelessness programs. The reality of homelessness is more complex than its definition. People experiencing homelessness are naturally on high alert and alter their behavior that affects their routine, making it hard for them to get out of homelessness. Often, people experiencing homelessness will undergo a number of life-changing emotions, including severe depression, anxiety, paranoia, and post-traumatic stress. The Hotel California is a homeless shelter. It isn't a resort that you need to have a reservation for, and there's one in every major city and rural county in our country. There are more chains of Hotel California than there are any major hotel or motel. This book describes a man's five-year struggle of living in that situation, on the treatment of guest who lived in the shelters, the discrimination against the homeless population to secure jobs, and the improprieties of funds abused by the people who run the shelters and transition homes. You can checkout anytime you like, but will you ever leave. This is my story!

Moreover, Sullivan includes for context bulleted lists noting key events that occurred during the song’s recording

Book excerpt: An empowering story of empathy, courage, and hope, based on the author's real-life experience immigrating to the US as a child and working at the front desk of the motel where her parents work. Ten year-old Mia Tang moved to the US for a better life, a freer life, but so far, it's a life where she runs the front desk of a motel while her parents clean rooms. And she's not even allowed to use the swimming pool. Based on author Kelly Yang’s real-life experience immigrating to America from China and running a motel with her parents, this novel explores how one little girl overcomes language barriers, discrimination, and her own lack of confidence to find her voice – and use it to make a difference. This is a sensitive story of tolerance and diversity that will resonate with readers of all cultures who have experienced the challenges of feeling like an outsider.

These by-no-means ordinary characters work up undisturbed series of absurd and hilarious events that transcend your wildest imagination.

For Cliff and Sara Bower, the long holiday weekend is to be their last attempt to salvage what's left of their marriage.

Unknowingly, they are about to enter into the devil's playground, where seduction, murder and the living dead will lead them into a nightmare from hell.

Book excerpt: The definitive, unauthorized biography of The Eagles by the New York Times bestselling biographer To the Limit is the unauthorized account of the group from its earliest years through the breakup, solo careers, and reunions. Blending the country and folk music of the late sixties with the melodic seductiveness of Detroit-style roots rock, the Eagles brought a new sound to a stagnant music scene. Under the brilliant management of David Geffen, the Eagles projected a public image of unshakable camaraderie--embodied by the cerebral, brooding Don Henley and the intuitive, self-destructive Glenn Frey--bolstered by the gorgeous harmonies of their songs. Behind the scenes, however, there was another story. At turns revealing, inspiring, funny, and shocking, To the Limit is the chronicle of a time, a place, and a group that succeeded in changing forever the world of popular music.
