Hindsight By:Justin Timberlake Published on 2018-10-30 by HarperCollins |I can't help that my music shows who I am in this moment, what I'm drawn to, what I'm wondering about.

I want you to see me, just like I want to see you.| — Justin Timberlake In his first book, Justin Timberlake has created a characteristically dynamic experience, one that combines an intimate, remarkable collection of anecdotes, reflections, and observations on his life and work with hundreds of candid images from his personal archives that range from his early years to the present day, in locations around the world, both on and off the stage.

Deep Creek: Finding Hope in the High Country By:Pam Houston Published on 2019-01-29 by W. W. Norton & Company |How do we become who we are in the world? We ask the world to teach us.| On her 120-acre homestead high in the Colorado Rockies, beloved writer Pam Houston learns what it means to care for a piece of land and the creatures on it.

White Like Her: My Family’s Story of Race and Racial Passing is the story of Gail Lukasik’s mother’s “passing,” Gail’s struggle with the shame of her mother’s choice, and her subsequent journey of self-discovery and redemption.
