When ministering prisoners at events throughout the Southeast, Jennifer Leigh Allison has plenty of time to think about how unlikely her present day success really is. Allison's struggled growing up with Sensory Processing Disorder, which would eventually leave her pickled through addiction, struggling to find shelter on the streets and even falling victim to the almost-fatal grip of abusers. But it was Allison's commitment to and connection with her faith that became her savoir. In her new memoir, Allison tells the entire story.

Let's put party politics aside for a minute; love her or hate her – Hillary Clinton is one of the United States' most fascinating women. To some she is a breakthrough maverick who is unafraid to pursue any cause close to her heart while, to others (*cough*, those in red), she is a far-out try-hard who doesn't deserve yet another residency in the White House.

There was a time when the thought of Tasha Pedersen ever writing a book was absurd; she couldn't even use a pen and the mental illness riddling her existence was more likely to kill someone or see Pedersen turn a weapon back on herself. But, overcoming impossible odds, Pedersen is still alive and sharing her story of bipolar disorder and addiction in what could be the most honest and gritty memoir ever written.

While old adages tell folks that "age is just a number for the taxman", "you're only as old as you feel" and "it's not about how old you are, it's about how you are old", the truth is that most people waste precious time and don't experience true joy in the shadow of worrying about their own mortality.
