Things I should have said / by Spears, Jamie Lynn,1991-author.;
The world first met Jamie Lynn as a child star. She spent years escaping into different characters - on All That, Zoey 101, and even in the role as Britney's kid sister. But as she grew up, faced a teen pregnancy, raised her daughter on her own, pursued a career, and learned to stand on her own two feet, the real Jamie Lynn started to take centre stage - a raw, blemished, and imperfect woman, standing in her own power. Jamie talks frankly about the highs and lows, how she finally found love, and how the mistakes she has made have taught her more than anything else.

Try hard : creative work in progress / by Kerman, Max,author.;
"Frontman of the multiplatinum band Arkells shares unpretentious stories and inspiration from a life spent chasing his creative passions and making things with friends. Max Kerman might be one of the biggest stars in Canadian music, but it's not for lack of trying. Being a self-professed "tryhard" is a big part of what keeps him going. While some tout the magic of creativity and others imagine creativity as a river flowing in and out of us, Max's thoughts about creativity reflect the realities of everyday people and their everyday lives: If you want more creativity in your life, it's as simple as leaning into your passions -- the things that keep you entertained -- and figuring out how to see your creative ideas through. Try Hard is a book for anyone looking for some daily inspiration to follow their creative instincts or to bring more creativity into their lives, even if being creative doesn't seem like part of your daily life. For Max, creativity is about self-generated action and momentum. It's about keeping yourself entertained and surrounding yourself with people you admire and who make every creative riddle one worth solving. Through formative stories growing up as a pretty average kid in Toronto to lessons he's learned grinding it out with his bandmates, Max shows us how not having a rigid creative process is, in fact, a process, how to find things in common with even the most unlikely collaborators, and how bringing a creative mindset with you into everything you do can lead to a life that leaves you feeling energized"--

Heart of the sun / by Sheridan, Mia,author.;
Amid the sun-drenched orange groves of California, childhood friends Tuck Mattice and Emily Swanson shared a bond that seemed unbreakable--until life ripped them apart. Thirteen years later, Emily is a rising pop sensation in need of security, and Tuck, a brooding ex-con, is in need of a fresh start. When fate brings them together once again, Emily hires him on as her new bodyguard. They butt heads and bicker, just like the old days--yet neither can deny the heat rekindling between them. But when a cataclysmic solar flare disrupts the electrical grid, society is suddenly plunged into chaos and darkness. For Emily, the familiar comforts of fame and fortune crumble, but for Tuck, this stark new reality could be the chance he needs to finally prove himself. As they come to terms with all they've lost and the bitterness that's kept them apart, they must find their way back to one another and discover a new place, under the sun.
