Extra Points is the unforgettable, motivating journey of Coach Howard, a man who understands life and what it means to overcome life's obstacles. Coach Howard presents his story in a memoir that will take you through the wins and losses of his extraordinary, unpredictable life from the time he was a young teenager.

Let's face it, growing up in today's world is challenging, but growing up as a minority with big dreams is filled with even more adversities. Coach Howard's Book, "Extra Points: The Life of My Story" takes us deep into the events of Coach Howard's life to witness how he handled some of the issues facing young, black men today. From racism during his early days at University of Pittsburgh to losing a $15 million fortune, we follow him through life's ups and downs. We read about his struggles with loved ones and his battles with depression. In the end, we learn how he handled each roller coaster in his life and how it all made him the successful man he is today.

Along with telling his life's story, Coach Howard also aims to motivate young men to keep moving forward and stay positive with some practical advice he calls, "Extra Points." These "Extra Points" are included to provide the reader an extra boost of motivation to reach success. Coach Howard's goal for "Extra Points" is to reach young men where they are in life and encourage them to get to where they want to be.

Addictive as almond M&M's
Format: Paperback
I once read a book that blew the whistle on the abuses in the system that produces young elite figure skaters and gymnasts. One mother said of another mother that she was very likeable, but she'd cut your throat behind your back. That describes a lot of Freida McFadden's heroines (and their besties) to a t. At least one of the following always occurs in these novels. 1. If someone says, "Eh, I'm sure it's nothing," it's not. If someone believes their husband is too busy working to have an affair, he isn't. If someone suspects a knife is missing from the block, it is. 2. If a child or teen bitterly complains of being a victim of peer conflict, there's a good chance he/she is the instigator. They may even have committed or assisted in a murder in the past. 3. At some point, you will be told point blank that the character you have just spent a good chunk of the book with is the polar opposite. And even if you're familiar with the books, it may come as at least a partial surprise since this doesn't occur in most novels. 4. Everyone in the book has a secret, even if it's just hair dye. 5. There's also what I call the "Cold Case" rule: Don't argue near stairs. Ever. But I digress. At first, happily married to a great guy Naomi Roth doesn't really protest when her husband Jeremy, after having changed the locks, insists that she go and stay at the apartment he bought for his now-deceased parents. She believes, despite a few stray doubts, that he is telling the truth when he says that it's just renovations and that it will be better this way - and he's even thoughtfully packed for her. However, soon after that, Naomi is told in no uncertain terms that Jeremy wants a divorce, which makes her a pariah with her fellow mothers, except one. Is her husband having an affair, and if so, what secrets does his mistress have? And who the heck committed the murder in the preface (there's almost one in every book, so it isn't much of a spoiler)? As always, the author makes writing fiction look effortless, which if you've actually sat down to write some, know it usually isn't. Another addictive read.

Heartbreaking and beautiful
Format: Kindle
This book reads like living. I was able to be Sybil, not just observe her. I found the experience of reading her story authentic and cathartic in a way. At the middle of my life it provoked a sense that’s there can be goodness and purpose in aging.
