Johnny Got His Gun: Johnny Cogió Su Fusil (Film Ink Ser.)
by Dalton TrumboThis is no ordinary novel. This is a novel that never takes the easy way out: it is shocking, violent, terrifying, horrible, uncompromising, brutal, remorseless and gruesome...but so is war. Written from the perspective of one man's thoughts, often a stream of consciousness with its own punctuation style, even the title takes on new meaning. Published in 1939, the book itself has a history, partially described by the author in introductions in 1959 and 1970. A compelling novel about war that is still relevant today, this story is not to be missed. Note: The author does not follow standard American spelling.

Ivy has always tried her best to seem "normal," but between symptom management, new treatment plans, and struggling with medical self-advocacy, being sick feels more and more difficult. With her energy plummeting, even her bestie starts drifting away! What if Grant does, too? Will Ivy&’s sugar-sweet romance pan out? Can she maintain her façade, for him and for the world… or should she be brave and let it drop?Marissa Eller serves up a sweet, satisfying romcom that tackles the realities of chronic illness—and coming-of-age milestones from friend breakups to first kisses—with wry humor, tons of heart, and a huge helping of honesty. Nuanced, funny, and deeply enjoyable, readers will fall for Eller&’s voice in this compelling debut that offers all the right ingredients."A sweet and affirming story that embraces the unpredictability of chronic illness."—Anna Sortino, award-winning author of Give Me a Sign and On the Bright Side"Will make readers feel seen.

Journey to the Center of the Earth (Dover Thrift Editions)
by Jules VerneAn adventurous geology professor chances upon a manuscript in which a 16th-century explorer claims to have found a route to the earth's core. Professor Lidenbrock can't resist the opportunity to investigate, and with his nephew Axel, he sets off across Iceland in the company of Hans Bjelke, a native guide. The expedition descends into an extinct volcano toward a sunless sea, where they encounter a subterranean world of luminous rocks, antediluvian forests, and fantastic marine life — a living past that holds the secrets to the origins of human existence.Originally published in 1864, Jules Verne's classic remains critically acclaimed for its style and imaginative visions. Verne wrote many fantasy stories that later proved remarkably prescient, and his distinctive combination of realism and romanticism exercised a lasting influence on writers as diverse as Mark Twain, Arthur Conan Doyle, and Jean-Paul Sartre. In addition to the excitement of an action novel, Journey to the Center of the Earth has the added appeal of a psychological quest, in which the sojourn itself is as significant as the ultimate destination.

Journeying with God: A survey of the Old Testament: Student Workbook
by Greg TrullThroughout history, Bible scholars have described the story of the Old Testament as a journey. The people of God are journeying with Him toward their ultimate destination. But this is not an easy journey for God's people. When their relationship with God is going well, they are on a mountaintop. When they rebel and their relationship with God becomes cold and distant, they are in a valley. This sequence happens time and time again. In fact, the whole history of the Old Testament is a series of peaks and valleys, ups and downs-like a long roller-coaster ride! The Old Testament takes up most of the pages in the Bible. In this course, you will gain a new understanding of these thirty-nine Bible books. In Journeying with God, you'll see how the people and events of the Old Testament fit into the big story of God's activity throughout history. Your understanding of the New Testament will become deeper and more insightful. And your relationship with Jesus will take on a richer meaning.
