The Sirens' Call
A Barack Obama Summer Reading Pick 2025 From New York Times bestselling author and television and podcast host, a powerful, wide-angle reckoning with how the assault from attention capitalism on our minds and our hearts has reordered our politics and the very fabric of our society. We all feel it - the distraction, the loss of focus, the addictive focus on the wrong things for too long. We bump into the zombies on their phones in the street, and sometimes they're us. We stare in pity at the four people at the table in the restaurant, all on their phones, and then we feel the buzz in our pocket. Something has changed utterly: for most of human history, the boundary between public and private has been clear, at least in theory. Now, as Chris Hayes writes, 'With the help of a few tech firms, we basically tore it down in about a decade.' Hayes argues that we are in the midst of an epoch-defining transition: attention has become a commodified resource extracted from us, and from which we are increasingly alienated. Because there is a breaking point. Sirens are designed to compel us, and now they are going off in our bedrooms and kitchens at all hours of the day and night, doing the bidding of vast empires, the most valuable companies in history, built on harvesting human attention. The Sirens' Call is the big book we all need to wrest back control of our lives, our politics, and our future.

Hey Y'All Watch This
Poetry. In this wry, intimate, and heartbreaking collection, Chris Hayes records the exact weight of generational trauma, mental and physical illness, addiction, marital alienation, self alienation: that is, all the general malfuckery that comes with living in bodies that often refuse to cooperate with what we want or whatever we've promised others. What makes this examination of ordinary American dysfunction extraordinary is Hayes's positively dazzling way with language. The poems here are as carefully constructed as the finest bespoke suit, and yet they retain a musical ease and integrity of line that reveal a poet who's expertly sure of his craft. Hayes's sense of personal authenticity, philosophical maturity, and literary intelligence here are anything but ordinary. A stunning collection of poems.-Erin Belieu

Her Children Rise Up and Call Her Blessed!: In Honor of Her Love, Her Life and Her Legacy
Rev. Emma J. Rowland She came from nothing and didn't know it at the time. She didn't go hungry and that was all that mattered in those days. "If you had food, a roof over your head, and a Grandma to call your own, you had it made." She had it made. She is a picture of good health. Never a heart attack, stroke, or kidney dialysis. Her knees and hips are original parts. Never a broken bone. No cancer. No terminal illness. Nothing to impede her journey! In her own words, "I like to go!" At 100, she wears eye glasses and she has a cane, but we question whether she needs it. She has a hearing aid, but she doesn't wear it as often as she should. She refuses to ride the electric carts in the grocery store. She only holds your hand as a display of affection, but rarely because she needs your hand to get where she wants to go. She is a self-taught learner. She loves to read, especially the Bible, and she is a quick thinker and speaker. She is witty, feisty, independent, strong and capable! She loves the Lord with all of her heart, and trusts, leans, and relies on Him completely for her daily sustenance. She is OUR Mother, Reverend Emma Jane Rowland.

Author Holly Christine Hayes spent her teen and young adult life mired in alcoholism and drug addiction, in the grips of a downward spiral that led to a life of trauma, shame, and eventual homelessness.

But it took years for her to find out who the God was that saved her. Through the telling of her story, the author takes readers on a journey through the surrender of the recovery meetings that gather in church basements to the wholeness and healing she found in the sanctuary of the church. All the while, she shares lessons she learned in the basement about who God really is and the miraculous ways He wants to heal our hurts, habits, sins, and setbacks.

A Colony in a Nation
In A Colony in a Nation, New York Times best-selling author and Emmy Award-winning news anchor Chris Hayes upends the national conversation on policing and democracy. Drawing on wide-ranging historical, social, and political analysis, as well as deeply personal experiences with law enforcement, Hayes contends that our country has fractured in two: the Colony and the Nation. In the Nation, the law is venerated. In the Colony, fear and order undermine civil rights. With great empathy, Hayes seeks to understand this systemic divide, examining its ties to racial inequality, the omnipresent threat of guns, and the dangerous and unfortunate results of choices made by fear.
