Sinossi

A darkly witty tale of one woman’s relationships with ten very different men on her road to finding The One… “A brilliant read.”—Cosmopolitan 
 
A bestseller in the UK, this novel follows an unnamed woman as she encounters ten men—also unnamed, aside from the nicknames she gives them. There is The Virgin, who wants her as his first but not necessarily his last; The Billionaire, a walking bankroll with a bankrupt heart; The Director, who won’t leave his wife; The Lover, who’s out of her head when he’s out of her bed; and a half dozen more—none of whom manage to meet her needs. 
 
As the years pass and she journeys from an island off France to Texas to England and beyond, our heroine learns a little bit more with each man she meets—and ultimately must figure out what’s missing in herself. 
 
“Funny and incisive.”—Candace Bushnell 
 
“Gray is a wry observer of love and of men.”—The Washington Post

    A meddling mom follows her daughter to Hollywood in a novel by the New York Times-bestselling author: “Wildly inventive…quite funny and always engaging.” —People   Stacey left Cleveland for the glamour of Hollywood, intent on becoming a star. Another bonus of heading west was putting some distance between herself and her smotheringly overprotective mom, Helen. Of course, it can’t stop Helen from buzzing her cellphone every twenty minutes.   Now her mother has trekked all the way to Tinseltown to be with Stacey—and moved in right down the street. But the twist of the knife really comes when Helen complains about finding a bone in her can of tuna, and winds up getting an apology from the company—and an offer to star in a high-profile commercial that not only leads to an unexpected acting career but lands her a mysterious dreamboat.   Meanwhile, Stacey's own career is starting to tank and she's falling for a man she thought she hated. Her resentment of her mom is more than she can bear—but she may become the protective one when she learns something shady about Helen’s new boyfriend…   “Spirited, effortless entertainment with a winning premise.” —Publishers Weekly

    From the incomparable New York Times and New Yorker illustrator Tamara Shopsin, a debut novel about a NYC printer repair technician who comes of age alongside the Apple computer. 
     
     
     
    Named a Most Anticipated Book of 2021 by Lit Hub 
     
     
     
    LaserWriter II is a coming-of-age tale set in the legendary '90s indie NYC Mac repair shop TekServe—a voyage back in time to when the internet was new, when New York City was gritty, and when Apple made off-beat computers for weirdos. Our guide is Claire, a nineteen-year-old who barely speaks to her bohemian coworkers, but knows when it's time to snap on an antistatic bracelet. 
     
     
     
    Tamara Shopsin brings us a classically New York novel that couldn't feel more timely. Interweaving the history of digital technology with a tale both touchingly human and delightfully technical, Shopsin brings an idiosyncratic cast of characters to life with a light touch, a sharp eye, and an unmistakable voice. 
     
     
     
    Filled with pixelated philosophy and lots of printers, LaserWriter II is, at its heart, a parable about an apple.

    If you enjoy political, historical or current event humor, take a load of this book.We will take the piss (or make fun of) The Illuminati, it's history and command and controlof every nation under the Sun.As I type this words Queen Elizabeth II is being buried. In this text, no shots will be taken at her life or legacy. It may differ during the audio post production. More knowledge may lead to many changes in your life. Truth is, the older one grows, the we realize, God controls over all, even a redneck cantankerous continues to learn this at almost an age north of 50. You are in for a treat because this version is not available in print, at least the last five or six chapters on audio.If you are a Bible reader, remember the Canaanites sacrificed their children to the god Molech. To me this became one of the cornerstone of these elite formations of this ‘Enlighted Group.’ Then it morphed into secret societies, free masonry, and evolved into controlling governments. Yet the Devil or Satan told Christ ‘All These Kingdoms Are Mine! So why are many of us are surprised after thousands of years, the control and command on Earth resides with him, the 13 Elite families, The Bilderberg Group, the CFR, The WEF, The WHO, The Octagon Group (Geneva Switzerland). In the off news sites, they are known as the Kazazian Mafia. This text is not designed to provide the exact origins of the Illuminati. There are several sites one may visit for this information. This author connects the past constructions of this group, shows how it is divided to conceal itself. The audio version will demonstrate the Red Neck or Southern twangs of pronunciation. Their may exist some decent secret societies but to my knowledge, of they are secret, then how do they help we brothers and sisters? I have read of the White Dragon and the Red Dragon Societies and a MC Club called SOS. Once a soldier in Iraq told us on a Humvee ride in Ramadi he was a member of the SOS. I replied, ‘Well if it’s so secret,
