In May 1997, Fleetwood Mac performed their song “Silver Springs” live at Warner Bros. The mood board of this story is encapsulated in a single video. The author of the novel says that the band was not directly based on any specific musical group, pulling inspiration from across the 1970s music scene, but readers of the novel agree, Daisy Jones & The Six is basically Fleetwood Mac. ![]() But where does the inspiration for the band come from? Here's what we know. The story follows the meteoric rise and legacy of the band. The series, adapted from the Taylor Jenkins Reid novel of the same name, stars Riley Keough as the eponymous star, alongside Sam Claflin, Camila Morrone, Suki Waterhouse and more. The lead of Amazon Prime’s latest series, Daisy Jones & The Six, Daisy has the style and sound of rock icons past, with a very real Spotify discography to match. The biggest name in music right now is Daisy Jones, despite the fact that she’s entirely fictional.

It's what most people know as a "flea-flicker," but the Redskins call it a "throw back special."

He is extremely bright and has used his knowledge abou t his heritage to articulately deconstruct much of our ‘typical’ British social context to reveal new insights – i nsights that those of us who are like me (a lso dual heritage, brown skin, a child of immigrants ) sort of knew but could never quite put their finger on. Īkala, who was born in the 80s to a British-Caribbean father and a Scottish-English mother, grew up in a single parent, working class family dependent on free school meals. ![]() I f inally got round to reading Native s: Race & Class in the R uins of E mpire by artist, writer, historian and educator, Akala, as I had been meaning to since he spoke at the ‘ sold-out ’ King’s Race Equality N etwork B lack H istory M onth event last year. Reading them felt like many things I previously only half understood had come into focus, while other things I had never thought to think about were beginning to emerge. Reading them fel t at once like a punch in the face, a hug, and something akin to the “ice challenge”. More recently, I was inspired by Caroline Criado-Perez’s Invisible Women. Way back in time, Mike Phillips’ Windrush: The Irresistible Rise of Multi-Racial Britain was a game changer. Every so often I experience a seismic change of understanding about myself, the world and societal issues. ![]() ![]() Unfortunately, we cannot accept returns on sale items or gift cards.

Adams is a brisk and solid plotter, and has an easy hand with creating characters who are easy to root for. When the creator of the list is revealed, there isn’t much in the way of surprise, but it gains emotional resonance after Adams links the list to a late-breaking tragic event. As time passes, Mukesh and Aleisha become good friends, with Mukesh and his granddaughter, Priya, joining in on a reading list Aleisha found tucked in a returned book, which includes such classics as To Kill a Mockingbird, Little Women, and Beloved. Her second novel, The Twilight Garden, will be published in summer 2023. Her debut novel The Reading List was a finalist in the Goodreads Choice Awards for Fiction 2021. ![]() After Londoner Mukesh’s wife, Naina, dies, he picks up the book she was reading before she died, The Time-Traveler’s Wife, hoping “to turn the black letters and yellowed pages into a letter from Naina to him.” When he later returns the book to the library, he meets the restless and prickly 17-year-old library worker Aleisha, who reluctantly took the job after encouragement from her troubled older brother, also a bookworm. She lives in London and was born in Hertfordshire to Indian and English parents. ![]() Adams’s winsome debut follows a widower who takes up reading in order to honor the memory of his wife. ![]() ![]() ![]() Alex Nichols desperately wants the implant removed, but getting it out isn't nearly as easy as putting it in. Thanks to her parents, though, she's been forcibly given an implant that leaves her static-unable to shift-and male. Jemĭamon Bryce is worried sick when he doesn't hear from his girlfriend after she visits her estranged parents, but when he checks up on her, he's in for the shock of his life-she's a shifter, part of a small percentage of the population who can shift genders at will. Overall, it was a gripping story with a great HEA. I read fiction for escapism, and this book severely pushed the limit. ![]() A few times, this became problematic, yet readers need to see the story from both of their sides. The story is alternately narrated by Damon and Alex, in first person POV. Perhaps to soften what can be a controversial topic, the author used science fiction to craft the story. I have never read a novel with a transgender character before now.

With this wry portrait of small-town Iowa - and a young man's life at the crossroads - Peter Hedges created a classic American novel "charged with sardonic intelligence" (Washington Post Book World). ![]() ![]() As the Grapes gather in Endora, a mysterious beauty glides through town on a bicycle and rides circles around Gilbert, until he begins to see a new vision of his family and himself. But the biggest event on the horizon for all the Grapes is the eighteenth birthday of Gilbert's younger brother, Arnie, who is a living miracle just for having survived so long. Gilbert's long-suffering older sister, Amy, still mourns the death of Elvis, and his knockout younger sister has become hooked on makeup, boys, and Jesus - in that order. His enormous mother, once the town sweetheart, has been eating nonstop ever since her husband's suicide, and the floor beneath her TV chair is threatening to cave in. 1,091 and dwindling) is eating Gilbert Grape, a twenty-four-year-old grocery clerk who dreams only of leaving.

But Ghost has been running for the wrong reasons-it all started with running away from his father, who, when Ghost was a very little boy, chased him and his mother through their apartment, then down the street, with a loaded gun, aiming to kill. That’s all Ghost (real name Castle Cranshaw) has ever known. They all have a lot to lose, but they also have a lot to prove, not only to each other, but to themselves. But they are also four kids chosen for an elite middle school track team-a team that could qualify them for the Junior Olympics if they can get their acts together. Four kids from wildly different backgrounds with personalities that are explosive when they clash. ![]() ![]() Ghost wants to be the fastest sprinter on his elite middle school track team, but his past is slowing him down in this first electrifying novel of the acclaimed Track series from Coretta Scott King - John Steptoe Award–winning author Jason Reynolds.
