UNLIMITED. How to Build an Exceptional Life - by Michaels Jillian (2011)
Imagine. Believe. Achieve. Many self-help books offer a lot of new age platitudes and sappy mantras: Just love yourself; See the glass as half full; Believe it and it will come. Really? That's not how it works, and you know it. A lifetime's worth of struggle is not overturned in a small moment of positive thinking. But if you have the right attitude--attitude and skills--you can and will accomplish anything and everything you want. This book gives you both, attitude and action. By its end you will have all the tools you need to change your life. No hype. No false promises. - by Michaels Jillian

But this being a Roth novel, Bucky can't hide from his fate.
