Both Titus and Alethea are captivating, and the quality of the characterizations saves the book from the plot confusions, too-easy tieups and too-modern sensibility that plague it.

At first out of duty and then out of interest, he comes to her aid time and again, seeing her safe back to England.

Environmentalismconsiders both the conservation and preservation movements and less organized forms of nature loving (from seaside vacations to ecotourism) to argue that these activities have commonly distracted us from the hard work of creating a sustainable and sensible relationship with the environment. Hence Englandled the way in both manufacturing and preserving its countryside, and the United Statescreated a matchless set of national parks as it became the world's pre-eminent economic and military power. Industrialisation made conservation sensible, but also drove people to look for meaning in nature even as they consumed its products more relentlessly. In this short guide, Peterson del Mar untangles this paradox by showing how prosperity is essential to environmentalism. By David Peterson Del Mar Book Environmentalism Edition 2nd Edition First Published 2012 Imprint Routledge Pages 1 eBook ISBN 9781315833163 ABSTRACT Though little noticed upon its publication in 1864, Man and Nature anticipated later ecological arguments, particularly in relation to the many functions of forests. But movements that challenged western prosperity and comfort seldom made much progress, and many radical environmentalists have been unabashed utopianists. Environmental movements have produced some impressive results, including cleaner air and the preservation of selected species and places. It, like the work of bell hooks and Roxane Gay, should be required reading. He created something special with this timely and powerful book. Young is a talented writer and sharp cultural critic. There are two somewhat meandering essays at the end of the book that could have used a stronger edit, but that aside, What Doesn't Kill You Makes You Blacker is an outstanding collection of nonfiction that encapsulates the black male experience - and demands change. The beauty of What Doesn't Kill You Makes You Blacker is that Young never tries to make it easy for readers. There is a lot of funny writing here, but also pain, insecurity, loss, and injustice. Reading Young's essays is often an uncomfortable experience because he doesn't shy away from ugly truths. It is also a collection that serves as an authentic, keen, and touching example of the black male experience. While this is presented as a memoir in essays, What Doesn't Kill You Makes You Blacker is more of a personal collection of independent essays that offer a look at the life of one man.

It also didn't hurt that the guys were basically their own versions of Robin Hood and stole all their money to give it to the people who needed it the most: the victims of the shitty ass camp or sex trafficking ring. I wanted all the assholes who did them, and others, dirty to rot for what they have done. It's why I was rooting for everyone within this group to get everything that they wanted and more. I wouldn't necessarily say it's the cliffhangers but the overall mystery/unknown and the characters for sure. There's just something about this group, heck reverse harems in general, that keep me coming back. I honestly devoured these books in one sitting.
