人生边走边悟,努力才有出路
这是一本心灵励志书。为何每次失败后,都会找借口,来抵消心中的忐忑;为何每次反思后,都不借鉴教训,一直迷茫无向地前行;为何总会忽视生活中的小枝节,以致失去了一次次彰显自我的机会;为何总要埋怨自己总在人生的路口徘徊,没有丝毫进展。一句话,只因你付出的努力不够。Odd & True
Trudchen grew up hearing Odette's stories of their monster-slaying mother and a magician's curse. But now that Tru's older, she's starting to wonder if her older sister's tales were just comforting lies, especially because there's nothing fantastic about her own life—permanently disabled and in constant pain from childhood polio. In 1909, after a two-year absence, Od reappears with a suitcase supposedly full of weapons and a promise to rescue Tru from the monsters on their way to attack her. But it's Od who seems haunted by something. And when the sisters' search for their mother leads them to a face-off with the Leeds Devil, a nightmarish beast that's wreaking havoc in the Mid-Atlantic states, Tru discovers the peculiar possibility that she and her sister—despite their dark pasts and ordinary appearances—might, indeed, have magic after all.
