“…do not trust the way you see yourself when your mind is turbulent, and remember that even pain is temporary. Honor your boundaries, treat yourself gently, let go of perfection, and feel your emotions without letting them control you. You have enough experience to face the storm and evolve from it.”

John Bunyan wrote this while imprisoned during the 1600s for preaching Christianity in public. The protagonist Christian leaves the City of Destruction on his journey to the Celestial City, encountering such spiritual struggles as the Slough of Despond and the River of Death, meeting such characters as Evangelist, Discretion, Giant Despair and many more.

“God has great plans for you. But He cannot give you greater than what you desire for yourself.”

This is the story of Jessie Redmon Fauset (April 27, 1882 – April 30, 1961), who basically kicked off the glorious Harlem Renaissance and helped such writers as Langston Hughes, Jean Toomer, Countee Cullen and more. She was also a magazine editor, a published novelist, and lover of W.E.B. DuBois of the NAACP.

Eggs @rubyslippersreads @AnneCecilie I became inspired to read it bc my grands, ages 11 and 8, are reading and discussing it throughout the year in their home school curricula. Loved the allegorical style and the arduous journey from City of Destruction to Celestial City. Discovered that Bunyan wrote it while in prison in the 1600s for preaching Christianity. PP seems more relevant to me than the weekly gospels I heard growing up Catholic 3w

Woolever‘s life story is brutally honest and self-deprecating and you have to respect that. Despite addictions to weed, alcohol, pharmaceutical mood-alterers and emotionally unavailable lovers, Laurie reaches success co-writing with Anthony Bourdain until his untimely death in 2018. You‘ll enjoy the plethora of mouth-watering food descriptions as well.
