    Wait, What? And Life's Other Essential QuestionsWait, What? And Life’s Other Essential Questions
    by James E. Ryan

    Wait, What? is an insightful guide that reveals the secret to pursuing a rich, fulfilling life: the art of asking (and answering) good questions.

    In his commencement address to the graduating class of 2016, James E. Ryan, dean of the Harvard University Graduate School of Education, offered remarkable advice to the crowd of hopeful men and women eager to make their marks on the world. The key to achieving emotional connections and social progress, he told them, can be found in five essential questions:

    • Wait, what?
    • I wonder if…
    • Couldn’t we at least?
    • How can I help?
    • What truly matters?

    "Wait, what?" is at the root of all understanding. "I wonder if…" is at the heart of all curiosity. "Couldn’t we at least?" is the beginning of all progress. "How can I help?" is the basis of all good relationships. And "what truly matters?" gets you to the heart of life. By regularly asking these questions, Ryan promises, you will be prepared to enthusiastically answer yes to one final – and, ultimately, most important – question: "And did you get what you wanted out of life, even so?"

    Engaging and inspiring, Wait, What? will change the way you look at yourself and the world and, in the process, help you get what you want most out of life.

  • AUDIBLE Deal of the Day 🎧 The Unremembered Girl

    A new deal every day from Audible. Today’s deal ends 05/17/2018 @ 11:59PM PT.

    The Unremembered GirlThe Unremembered Girl by Eliza Maxwell

    Over 1,000 5-Star Reviews!

    In the deep woods of East Texas, Henry supports his family by selling bootleg liquor. It’s all he can do to keep his compassionate but ailing mother and his stepfather – a fanatical grassroots minister with a bruising rhetoric – from ruin. But they have no idea they’ve become the obsession of the girl in the woods.

    Abandoned and nearly feral, Eve has been watching them, seduced by the notion of family – something she’s known only in the most brutal sense. Soon she can’t resist the temptation to get close. Where Henry’s mother sees a poor girl in need, his father sees only wickedness. When Henry forges an unexpected bond with Eve, he believes he might be able to save her. He doesn’t know how wrong he is.

    Eve is about to take charge of her own destiny – and that of Henry’s family. As both their worlds spin violently out of control, Henry must make an impossible choice: protect the broken young woman who’s claimed a piece of his soul, or put everyone he loves at risk in order to do the right thing.

  • AUDIBLE Deal of the Day 🎧 Girl Logic

    A new deal every day from Audible. Today’s deal ends 05/16/2018 @ 11:59PM PT.

    Girl Logic: The Genius and the AbsurdityGirl Logic: The Genius and the Absurdity
    by Iliza Shlesinger

    Over 700 5-Star Reviews!

    From breakout stand-up comedian Iliza Shlesinger comes a subversively funny collection of essays and observations on a confident woman’s approach to friendship, singlehood, and relationships.

    "Girl Logic" is Iliza’s term for the way women obsess over details and situations that men don’t necessarily even notice. She describes it as a characteristically female way of thinking that appears to be contradictory and circuitous but is actually a complicated and highly evolved way of looking at the world. When confronted with critical decisions about dating, sex, work, even getting dressed in the morning, Iliza argues that women will by nature consider every repercussion of every option before making a move toward what they really want. And that kind of holistic thinking can actually give women an advantage in what is still a male world.

    In Iliza’s own words: "Understanding Girl Logic is a way of embracing both our aspirations and our contradictions. GL is the desire to be strong and vulnerable. It’s wanting to be curvy, but rail thin at the same time. It’s striving to kick ass in a man’s world while still being loved by the women around you.

    "This book is also for me, because apparently expounding on a stage for two hours a night wasn’t enough. (Trust me, if I could start a cult I would, but I hate the idea of deliberately dying in a group.)"
