Book Description
In January 2024, Succession won four Golden Globes - including Best Drama - from a record 13 nominations, cementing the truth in stone: no other show since The Sopranos has come close to its influence, impact and intelligence. Fuelled by the uncertainty of the global pandemic and the ugly political aftermath of the 2016 and 2020 U.S. elections, Succession's premise is simple but devastating: rip a despicable yet powerful family apart using jaw-droppingly innovative and original one-liners, led by a wealth of top TV talent. The Little Guide to Succession is an essential and hilarious read for fans of the Roy family and the rest of the business class ensemble's infamous and now-iconic wicked wit and quickfire quips. All the best quotes here, ready to be deployed at your command from this compact celebration of Succession. "You can't make a Tomlette without breaking some Gregs." Tom, to Greg (emailed to Greg 67 times in one evening), season two, episode nine, "DC". "You're a clumsy interloper, no one trusts you and the only guy pulling for you is dead. Now you're just married to the ex-boss's daughter and she doesn't even like you. You are fairly, squarely fucked." Karl, to Tom, when he "respectfully" threw his hat into the ring for interim CEO, season four, episode four, "Honeymoon States". "You look like a dildo dipped in beard trimmings." Roman, to designer-stubbled Stewy, season two, episode two, "Vaulter". 3,021 The number of times the word "fuck" is said throughout the show's four seasons. That's an average of 76 "fucks" per episode, or one every 1.2 minutes.

Book Description
What lurks in the dark isn't always a monster. Sometimes it's your deepest desire. Christos has been called by his captain to give aid in the final showdown with Dracul. Never comfortable living with humans and hiding his true nature, he misses the solitude of his mountain home. It's boring waiting for Dracul to strike—that is, until he meets a sick, homeless boy with soulful eyes and a need to be helped. Having tried to live in the nine-to-five world with no skills, Mateo has hit the streets once again, turning tricks to stay warm and fed. While checking out a new soup kitchen, he collapses from his growing illness—right into the arms of a sexy alpha male who also reminds him of someone who brutalized him in the past. Christos doesn't want the responsibility for the care of a human, no matter how alluring he is. And, with Dracul's unknown plans taking everyone's attention, there is no time for any distraction. But he can't stay away, and the trust this vulnerable human shows him is humbling. It also chips away at his resolve to stay alone. The final battle is gearing up, however, and Christos and Mateo are at ground zero. No matter how Christos tries to keep his boy safe, the fate of the world rests in both their hands.

Book Description
It was the fall of 1966. Of course, I had tasted alcohol briefly with a sip here and sip there, but this was different. This was the beginning of a lifelong battle with alcoholism. I had decided that I would attend the sock hop after the football game. For more than three years I had dreamed of having a relationship with this one very special girl. I was a senior and she was a sophomore. I came into the dance and placed my shoes in a corner of the gymnasium. Some of my friends were lined up along the wall. All the girls were seated in the bleachers on the other side of the gym. I came into the dance virtually unnoticed as I was not a really popular kid in high school. As usual at these festive occasions the music was playing but no one was dancing. This seemed to be common practice at these events. Oh, there was some mingling going on between football players and cheerleaders, however, the vast majority of us who wandered blindly through high school, incapable when it came to communication with the opposite sex. We all thought about it but we didn’t act on it. This is my real first recollection that I had such a fear of rejection and would struggle for most of the rest of my life to try and overcome that fear. Addiction would somehow enter the scene and, for time, would cover the fear gently leaving me to believe I was the one in control. This would become a disastrous illusion.

Book Description
In this audacious, lightning-paced thriller, a smart-mouthed, white-collar drug dealer--a hilariously irreverent antihero--seeks revenge when an unknown enemy takes out a contract on him. Jack Price is having a bad day. What he absolutely did not need was for someone to execute his grouchy old neighbor as if she was a drug mule. Questions will be asked, and Jack is a small businessman in a competitive sector hobbled by red tape and, you know: laws. Just because the product Jack trades in is cocaine, people assume it’s all guns and murders, but that is the old cocaine business and Jack is all about the new one: high-tech, high-end and on-demand. But when Jack begins making some inquiries with a view to calming the whole thing down, someone hires the Seven Demons to kill him. You bring those people in to kill generals and presidents and take down countries, not to mess with a guy who’s just trying to get along. The thing is that the Seven Demons and their client have misunderstood the situation. Jack is not upset. In fact, he’s grateful for the clarification. Jack is the kind of guy who adapts well to new business models. He has a unique approach to executive problem solving. In fact, Jack is batshit crazy. And when you mess with Jack, there is a Price to be paid.

NATIONAL BESTSELLER Soon to be a major motion picture "Jon Swift + Witches of Eastwick + Kelly 'Get In Trouble' Link + Mean Girls + Creative Writing Degree Hell! No punches pulled, no hilarities dodged, no meme unmangled! O Bunny you are sooo genius!" —Margaret Atwood, via Twitter "A wild, audacious and ultimately unforgettable novel." —Michael Schaub, Los Angeles Times "Awad is a stone-cold genius." —Ann Bauer, The Washington Post The Vegetarian meets Heathers in this darkly funny, seductively strange novel from the acclaimed author of 13 Ways of Looking at a Fat Girl and Rouge "We were just these innocent girls in the night trying to make something beautiful. We nearly died. We very nearly did, didn't we?" Samantha Heather Mackey couldn't be more of an outsider in her small, highly selective MFA program at New England's Warren University. A scholarship student who prefers the company of her dark imagination to that of most people, she is utterly repelled by the rest of her fiction writing cohort--a clique of unbearably twee rich girls who call each other "Bunny," and seem to move and speak as one. But everything changes when Samantha receives an invitation to the Bunnies' fabled "Smut Salon," and finds herself inexplicably drawn to their front door--ditching her only friend, Ava, in the process. As Samantha plunges deeper and deeper into the Bunnies' sinister yet saccharine world, beginning to take part in the ritualistic off-campus "Workshop" where they conjure their monstrous creations, the edges of reality begin to blur. Soon, her friendships with Ava and the Bunnies will be brought into deadly collision. The spellbinding new novel from one of our most fearless chroniclers of the female experience, Bunny is a down-the-rabbit-hole tale of loneliness and belonging, friendship and desire, and the fantastic and terrible power of the imagination.
