Author Carly Leighton’s New Book, “Lean on Me,” is a Compelling Tale That Follows a Young Girl’s Attempts to Find Herself After Her Life Begins Crumbling Apart


New York, NY, June 28, 2024 –(CarryOnHarry.com)– Carly Leighton, who holds a degree in English and currently teaches kindergarten in Arizona, where she lives with her husband and two dogs, has completed her new book, “Lean on Me”: a powerful story of a young girl who, after a tragic incident destroys her entire world, must learn to find herself again after moving to California to live with her estranged brother.

“Audrey Geller grew up struggling to fit in with people her age,” writes Leighton. “With her mom and older brother Daniel as her only true friends, she thought that was all she needed. As she enters her teen years, she becomes disconnected from her true identity, and in desperation to feel wanted, she becomes involved with the wrong crowd.

“Living across the way is Mason Haines. Mason is sweet, charming, and a little bit of a bad boy; but Audrey is drawn to him and always has been. But he is completely off-limits as he is her brother’s best friend. When tragedy strikes, Audrey’s world crumbles around her, and life as she knows it is shattered. She is sent to live in California with a brother she barely knows in an attempt to reinvent herself. Will she be able to find herself again? Or will she be stuck in the past?”

Published by Hawes & Jenkins Publishing, Carly Leighton’s enthralling tale will keep readers engaged with each turn of the page as they follow along on Audrey’s journey to find her place in the world, despite the struggles she’s forced to endure. Thought-provoking and heartfelt, Leighton weaves a character-driven story of hope and learning to grow that is sure to resonate with readers from all walks of life, remaining with them long after its conclusion.

Readers who wish to experience this riveting work can purchase “Lean on Me” at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes Store, Amazon, Google Play, or Barnes and Noble.

Two new consciousness‑style paperbacks on Amazon

Two new consciousness‑style paperbacks on Amazon, Author Ruby Dosanjh has released, expanding a growing body of atmospheric, introspective fiction. The titles — Likewise and Otherwise — explore the quiet emotional shifts that happen between two people who are paying attention.

The first release, Likewise, is a story about subtlety and mirrored feeling. It follows the second meeting that changes the first, the presence that fits too perfectly, and the kind of recognition that arrives without language. Described as “a quiet echo,” the book offers a soft, atmospheric experience for readers who sense emotional shifts before they can name them. Some connections linger — not because they’re forced to, but because they belong.

The second paperback, Otherwise, moves into deeper territory. It traces the moment reflection becomes truth, when two people think of each other without stopping and without softening it into something smaller. What begins as quiet awareness grows into something unmistakable — familiar, unsettling, and impossible to ignore. Otherwise follows the slow, honest shift from noticing to knowing, and the quiet courage it takes to stop pretending nothing is happening.

Together, the releases mark a clear evolution in Ruby Dosanjh’s one‑word consciousness series — stories that move gently, speak quietly, and leave a lasting imprint. Both paperbacks are now available worldwide on Amazon.

How To Read People Like A Book Enters Competitive Body Language Genre

Balle Balle Radio™ Entertainment Desk

Sebastian Clark has released "How To Read People Like A Book: The Subtle Art of How to Analyze People and Speed-Reading to decode Body Language, Intentions, Thoughts, Emotions, Behaviors, and Connect Effortlessly!", first published in 2022, according to an announcement received by Studio CarryOnHarry.

The book lands in a crowded shelf of nonverbal-communication guides. Its own marketing places it alongside Allan and Barbara Pease’s "The Definitive Book of Body Language," Joe Navarro’s "What Every BODY is Saying," and Thomas Erikson’s "Surrounded by Idiots" — three long-running titles that have anchored the popular body-language genre for years. Clark’s book positions itself as a newer entry covering similar ground: understanding facial expressions, gestures, posture, and vocal tone to reveal someone’s actual thoughts.

According to the announcement, the book walks through strategies applicable across various contexts including professional environments, social gatherings, and interpersonal connections — with the stated aim of helping readers spot emotions and intentions that go unspoken. Listed topics include facial expression and gesture analysis, context-specific body language decoding, interpreting non-verbal communication, reading vocal cues for emotional undertone, and trusting intuitive reads of subtle signals. The work is categorized within social science studies.

No further biographical detail on Clark accompanied the announcement, and independent listings for the title largely repeat the same publisher description rather than adding new information about the author or the book’s reception since 2022.

Studio CarryOnHarry Perspective

At Studio CarryOnHarry, we’re interested in whether books like Clark’s deliver on their practical promise. The appeal of body-language guides lies less in theory and more in real-world application—the job interview where you’re trying to gauge whether the hiring manager is genuinely interested, the first date where mixed signals leave you uncertain, the negotiation where knowing if the other party is bluffing matters financially. Clark’s positioning across "professional environments, social gatherings, and interpersonal connections" suggests he’s aware readers want transferable skills, not just academic frameworks. The question worth asking: does his approach to vocal cues, facial analysis, and contextual interpretation actually equip readers to make better decisions in these high-stakes moments? Or does it risk reinforcing the confidence-without-accuracy trap that plagues intuitive people-reading? For readers considering this purchase, the gap between what body language can reliably tell us and what we wish it could tell us deserves scrutiny.
