Readers beware. The brilliant, breathtaking conclusion to J.K. Rowling’s spellbinding series is not for the faint of heart–such revelations, battles, and betrayals await in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows that no fan will make it to the end unscathed. Luckily, Rowling has prepped loyal readers for the end of her series by doling out increasingly dark and dangerous tales of magic and mystery, shot through with lessons about honor and contempt, love and loss, and right and wrong. Fear not, you will find no spoilers in our review–to tell the plot would ruin the journey, and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows is an odyssey the likes of which Rowling’s fans have not yet seen, and are not likely to forget. But we would be remiss if we did not offer one small suggestion before you embark on your final adventure with Harry–bring plenty of tissues.

The heart of Book 7 is a hero’s mission–not just in Harry’s quest for the Horcruxes, but in his journey from boy to man–and Harry faces more danger than that found in all six books combined, from the direct threat of the Death Eaters and you-know-who, to the subtle perils of losing faith in himself. Attentive readers would do well to remember Dumbledore’s warning about making the choice between “what is right and what is easy,” and know that Rowling applies the same difficult principle to the conclusion of her series. While fans will find the answers to hotly speculated questions about Dumbledore, Snape, and you-know-who, it is a testament to Rowling’s skill as a storyteller that even the most astute and careful reader will be taken by surprise.

A spectacular finish to a phenomenal series, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows is a bittersweet read for fans. The journey is hard, filled with events both tragic and triumphant, the battlefield littered with the bodies of the dearest and despised, but the final chapter is as brilliant and blinding as a phoenix’s flame, and fans and skeptics alike will emerge from the confines of the story with full but heavy hearts, giddy and grateful for the experience. –Daphne Durham

In a series of personal letters to his sons, Omar Saif Ghobash offers a short and highly readable manifesto that tackles our current global crisis with the training of an experienced diplomat and the personal responsibility of a father. Today’s young Muslims will be tomorrow’s leaders, and yet too many are vulnerable to extremist propaganda that seems omnipresent in our technological age. The burning question, Ghobash argues, is how moderate Muslims can unite to find a voice that is true to Islam while actively and productively engaging in the modern world. What does it mean to be a good Muslim?

What is the concept of a good life? And is it acceptable to stand up and openly condemn those who take the Islamic faith and twist it to suit their own misguided political agendas? In taking a hard look at these seemingly simple questions, Ghobash encourages his sons to face issues others insist are not relevant, not applicable, or may even be Islamophobic. These letters serve as a clear-eyed inspiration for the next generation of Muslims to understand how to be faithful to their religion and still navigate through the complexities of today’s world. They also reveal an intimate glimpse into a world many are unfamiliar with and offer to provide an understanding of the everyday struggles Muslims face around the globe.”

The case is closed. Five years ago, schoolgirl Andie Bell was murdered by Sal Singh. The police know he did it. Everyone in town knows he did it.

But having grown up in the same small town that was consumed by the murder, Pippa Fitz-Amobi isn’t so sure. When she chooses the case as the topic for her final year project, she starts to uncover secrets that someone in town desperately wants to stay hidden. And if the real killer is still out there, how far will they go to keep Pip from the truth? The

آمل أن يمدك هذا الكتاب بأفكار جديدة عن الطعام والصحة، وأن يكون أكثر من مجرد حقائق مثيرة تنشرها بين الناس. قبل أن نبدأ، دعني أذكر نقطتين مهمتين:

راجع مقدم الرعاية الصحية الخاص بك: فالمشكلات الصحية قد تكون خطيرة. إذا كنت تُجري تغييرًا على نظامك الغذائي – وأتمنى أن تكون كذلك – من المفيد أن تتحدث مع طبيبك عن ذلك، ليس هذا لأن تغيير نظامك الغذائي شيء خطير؛ فالعكس هو الصحيح، فهي فكرة جيدة جدًّا. ولكن الأشخاص الذين يتناولون الأدوية – سواء للسكري أو ارتفاع ضغط الدم – على سبيل المثال؛ غالبًا ما يحتاجون لتعديل جرعات الأدوية التي يتناولونها عندما يُدخلون تحسينات على نظمهم الغذائية. في بعض الأحيان، يكونون قادرين على التوقف عن تناول الأدوية تمامًا. لا تفعل ذلك من تلقاء نفسك، ولكن راجع مقدم الرعاية الصحية الخاص بك لتقلل جرعتك من الدواء، أو تتوقف عن تناولها إذا ما كان ذلك مناسبًا.

تحدث أيضًا مع طبيبك قبل أن تقفز لنظام جديد من ممارسة التمارين. إذا كنت كثير الجلوس، أو تعاني مشكلات صحية خطيرة، أو أمامك الكثير من الوزن لتنقصه، أو تجاوزت الأربعين، راجع طبيبك الخاص واسأله عما إذا كنت مستعدًّا لممارسة الرياضة، وعن الوتيرة التي تبدأ بها.

احصل على تغذية كاملة. إن طريقة تناول الطعام المقدمة في هذا الكتاب من المرجح أن تحسن تغذيتك بالكامل، فضلًا عن المزايا الصحية المحددة التي تعود عليك جراء ذلك. ورغم ذلك، احرص على أن تتلقى التغذية الكاملة. من فضلك اقرأ التفاصيل الواردة في الفصل 9. على وجه الخصوص، احرص على تناول الفيتامينات بصفة يومية، أو مصدر آخر موثوق به من فيتامين B12؛ لأنه أمر أساسي لصحة الأعصاب والدم.
