"Our Story is an impressive collection of original fiction. Brian Maracle’s retelling of the Iroquois creation myth is powerful and haunting. Jovette Marchessault’s 'Moon of the Dancing Sons' is, simply, beautiful and heartrending, while Rachel Qitsualik’s 'Skraeling'is a narrative of the highest order.

This book, written by two of the world leaders in pain research, has what you need to understand the mechanisms of pain and chronic pain conditions.

Karen Warren was hands down my absolute favorite professor. If the novel had been written in a secular field for younger readers than it could have been split in to two serial novels. It's well paced, with the perfect blend of down time for the two couples to bond. I have read the P7700 guide by David Busch and it is wonderful! The Nikon owner's manual tells you how to
