In this long-awaited graphic comedy from an esteemed illustrator and storyteller, three bohemians struggle to answer the question: “Is it possible for an artist to survive in the 21st Century?” A young singer poses for a painter who has shifted from landscapes to nudes, and both of them learn a thing or two about the purpose of art and the meaning of success. The original graphic novel Naked City takes us inside the head of native New York artist, Eric Drooker (frequent cover artist for The New Yorker ). His award-winning graphic novels—beginning with Flood —have charted new terrain for the form, and Blood Song is soon to be a major motion picture. Don’t miss this epic meditation on art and life.

Amazing book-Debra does a great job again.
Format: Paperback
I had the privilege of reading Choosing Marriage for a review and it did not disappoint. Please do not let the title fool you, this book is not just for married couples or just for singles, it is for everyone There is so much wisdom and insight in this book, I honestly could read it more than once and get something out of it every time.
As a single woman, I appreciate a book that shows marriage for what it is. Marriage is beautiful and but it is also hard work. I think my generation has been jaded from Holly wood, that you meet the "right" person, fall in love, have kids and everything is peachy. However, if your marriage is not how you dreamed it would be then, it's OK to fall out of love and move on to next pretty face that makes you happy. Debra does a good job of debunking this myth and helping singles and married couple clear out the cob webs of what society has taught us. "Marriage is a blessing, but it doesn't happen by chance. A good marriage comes from a decision of choices."
In her book, she will point you straight to Jesus and remind us that no one can fulfill us but Him. One of my favorite quotes (and I have many favorites)from the book is "Marriage can't fulfill us to overflowing, only Jesus can. If anything marriage reveals our emptiness. It can certainly add drops of water to our emotional bucket, but it can never fill us the way we need to be filled."
I highly recommend this book and also Debra's book True loves dates. I hope this book encourages you, just like it encouraged me to choose marriage.

Also great for the single who desires marriage someday!
Format: Paperback
Having loved Debra's book True Love Dates, I just had to check this one out as well.
I'm a 30 year old single women and hope that I will be married someday, Lord willing. I've seen so much confusion and fear surrounding the topic of marriage. This book was a refreshing perspective and reminder that marriage will be hard, but it can add so much good and blessing to your life as well.
I especially found chapter 5 interesting. It talks about moving from expectations to reality in marriage. I like how different areas that were much harder in reality were discussed. Things like finances, lifestyle differences, dealing with family, personality differences, and more. Definitely topics for me to think about and consider how I deal with these things on my own long before considering these differences with someone else.
There are helpful reflection questions separately for married couples and for singles at the end of each chapter. I also love that there are workbooks available to go along with the book. I'm planning to buy this for my friends who are getting married later this year.
This is such a great book about relationships, thanks Debra!
(I received a free digital copy for my honest review, but I loved it so much that I bought a hard copy on my own) :)
