BOOK
The Trigger Point Therapy Workbook: Your Self-Treatment Guide for Pain Relief, Second Edition
Amber Davies
$13.65

About this product:
Trigger point therapy is one of the most intriguing and fastest-growing bodywork styles in the world. Medical doctors, chiropractors, physical therapists, and massage therapists are all beginning to use this technique to relieve formerly undiagnosable muscle and joint pain—conditions that studies have shown to be the cause of nearly 25 percent of all doctor visits. The technique involves applying short, repeated massage strokes to trigger points, tiny contraction knots in muscle tissue where restricted circulation and lack of oxygen cause referred pain. Trigger points create pain throughout the body in predictable patterns characteristic to each muscle, producing discomfort ranging from mild to severe. Trigger point massage increases circulation and oxygenation in the area and often produces instant relief. This dynamic technique has made a huge impact among health professionals and the public alike, becoming an overnight classic in the field of pain relief. The book has sold over 220,000 copies since the release of the first edition in 2001. The second edition is a complete update and includes a new chapter specifically for massage professionals, as well as a chapter on systematic muscle relaxation techniques that can reinforce the therapeutic power of trigger point work.

BOOK
Mornings on Horseback: The Story of an Extraordinary Family, a Vanished Way of Life and the Unique Child Who Became Theodore Roosevelt
David McCullough
$8.92

About this product:
Mornings on Horseback is the brilliant biography of the young Theodore Roosevelt. Hailed as "a masterpiece" (John A. Gable, Newsday), it is the winner of the Los Angeles Times 1981 Book Prize for Biography and the National Book Award for Biography. Written by David McCullough, the author of Truman, this is the story of a remarkable little boy, seriously handicapped by recurrent and almost fatal asthma attacks, and his struggle to manhood: an amazing metamorphosis seen in the context of the very uncommon household in which he was raised.

The father is the first Theodore Roosevelt, a figure of unbounded energy, enormously attractive and selfless, a god in the eyes of his small, frail namesake. The mother, Mittie Bulloch Roosevelt, is a Southerner and a celebrated beauty, but also considerably more, which the book makes clear as never before. There are sisters Anna and Corinne, brother Elliott (who becomes the father of Eleanor Roosevelt), and the lovely, tragic Alice Lee, TR's first love. All are brought to life to make "a beautifully told story, filled with fresh detail", wrote The New York Times Book Review.

A book to be read on many levels, it is at once an enthralling story, a brilliant social history and a work of important scholarship which does away with several old myths and breaks entirely new ground. It is a book about life intensely lived, about family love and loyalty, about grief and courage, about "blessed" mornings on horseback beneath the wide blue skies of the Badlands.

BOOK
Just After Sunset: Stories
Stephen King
$13.90

About this product:
Stephen King -- who has written more than fifty books, dozens of number one New York Times bestsellers, and many unforgettable movies -- delivers an astonishing collection of short stories, his first since Everything's Eventual six years ago. As guest editor of the bestselling Best American Short Stories 2007, King spent over a year reading hundreds of stories. His renewed passion for the form is evident on every page of Just After Sunset. The stories in this collection have appeared in The New Yorker, Playboy, McSweeney's, The Paris Review, Esquire, and other publications.

Who but Stephen King would turn a Port-O-San into a slimy birth canal, or a roadside honky-tonk into a place for endless love? A book salesman with a grievance might pick up a mute hitchhiker, not knowing the silent man in the passenger seat listens altogether too well. Or an exercise routine on a stationary bicycle, begun to reduce bad cholesterol, might take its rider on a captivating -- and then terrifying -- journey. Set on a remote key in Florida, "The Gingerbread Girl" is a riveting tale featuring a young woman as vulnerable -- and resourceful -- as Audrey Hepburn's character in Wait Until Dark. In "Ayana," a blind girl works a miracle with a kiss and the touch of her hand. For King, the line between the living and the dead is often blurry, and the seams that hold our reality intact might tear apart at any moment. In one of the longer stories here, "N.," which recently broke new ground when it was adapted as a graphic digital entertainment, a psychiatric patient's irrational thinking might create an apocalyptic threat in the Maine countryside...or keep the world from falling victim to it.

Just After Sunset -- call it dusk, call it twilight, it's a time when human intercourse takes on an unnatural cast, when nothing is quite as it appears, when the imagination begins to reach for shadows as they dissipate to darkness and living daylight can be scared right out of you. It's the perfect time for Stephen King.

BOOK
Dead After Dark
Dianna Love
$4.28

About this product:
The first story by Sherrilyn Kenyon is great. It tells the story of Fury the brother of Fang, and Vane who married Bride in one of the first books about the werehunters. Fury was raised Arcadian but he turned out to be Katagaria. So he was almost murdered by his own mother, brother, and family. He was accepted into the Kattalakis clan and later revealed to be their brother. The cubs were split when the mother and father split. She being Arcadian and he katagaria. She tries to kill every Katagaria she encounters.

Fury meets up with one of his Arcadian brothers and the female he has always loved when they attack a lion katagaria and use something to bind him to his animal shape. Angelina is taken prisoner and forced to realize that they are not animals, and that her own people are more animal than them. I loved it.

J.R. Ward tells us the story of a vampire who has been held captive by his mother for many years. Afraid of him and his powers she imprisoned him beneath her mansion. Now she is dying and chooses to use her lawyer for a feeding for her Son. He is very shy and gentle and the lawyer falls for him but he must remove her memories before she is released. I found it touching and wonderful.

Susan Squires tells of a vampiress who is shattered by the death of her sister and has left her father's home. She is hiding in an older estate that her father owns in England. The local squire is corrupt and instead of overseeing the estate he has sold it. Drew left after he was beaten for loving the squires daughter. Now he has returned with a great deal of wealth to try to reclaim his love. However, she is dead from childbirth, as her father married her off within a yr of Drew's leaving. Determined on revenge Drew finds comfort with the Vampire at his estate. She has the deed to prove her father owns the property. I enjoyed this one.

Dianna Love gives us a story with to much information. Trey is a member of a secret protection society. Sasha is a witch. Both are after the member of a group of people who serve the Celtic and Gaelic gods. There was just to much going on to really get deeply involved with the story. I think there must be a book somewhere that uses these characters.

The first three were excellent, and the last was passible. It was worth the money just to get Fury's story.
