A contemporary guide to understanding the US judiciary, the Constitution, and the forces that seek to undermine them, Living Law: or, Why Are They Killing the Constitution? by Sid Martin is a sharp and essential read for Americans seeking clarity on the state of the judicial process, rather than endless spin. From America’s founding philosophies and the evolution of Constitutional rights to the originalism, hyperliteralism, cronyism, and corruption of the modern judiciary, this is a tenacious, timely, and unapologetic critique. Importantly, the book is bipartisan in its lens, fairly laying blame on both sides of the aisle, and the author […]

Bringing horror, dystopia, and paranoia into a sinister spotlight, Just Underneath by Jason Palmer is a strikingly confident collection of short and offbeat tales. A disease that drives you to scratch – or else drives you insane, a Kafkaesque interrogation over the culpability of a not-so-common housefly, an ominous PSA about maniacally maxing out your muscle mass, and more bizarre stories make this read a weirdly chilling thrill. Psychologically twisted and linguistically mad, with a dash of caustic social critique, these previously published pieces are dark fiction with an extra helping of dark, which makes for a sometimes challenging but […]

The novella feels in part like […]

An inspiring, faith-driven collection of powerful wisdom drawn from lived experience and hard-won healing, It’s Time to Turn Up!

The clearly expressed and compassionate prose teaches readers to defend their autonomy and rebuild their sense of safety through the author’s personal strategies and vulnerable confessions. She doesn’t sugarcoat the […]

A welcome revelation for parents, guardians, teachers, and people at large, Raising Future Leaders: How to Turn Tiny Tyrants into Titans by Nam Nguyen is a wholly original and accessible compendium of leadership advice. Far more than a standard parenting manual, this book focuses on how to actively provide children with the foundations for success throughout their lives. From key concepts of adaptability, resilience, curiosity, goal-setting, and self-reliance to lessons on habit-building, sleep patterns, social skills, financial responsibility, critical thinking, and kindness, this comprehensive guide is empowering, while sensitive to the fact that children are indeed young and perhaps less […]
