  Are you one minor inconvenience away from a full-blown existential crisis? 
  Do you regularly Google how to do your own job while hoping nobody notices? 
  Ever sat in a meeting nodding thoughtfully while having no clue what’s happening? 
  Congratulations! 🎉 You’re just like everyone else. 
  This book is a highly questionable, deeply unserious guide to: 
  ✔️ Looking like you have your life together while internally screaming. 
  ✔️ Pretending you belong in the room, even when you definitely don’t. 
  ✔️ Saying things with confidence so people stop asking follow-up questions. 
  Inside, you’ll learn highly advanced survival techniques, including: 
  🔥 "Meetings, Presentations, and Other Ways to Have a Public Meltdown" (How to say “Let’s circle back” and escape responsibility forever.) 
  🔥 "Job Interviews: The Olympic Sport of Pretending You’re Normal" (How to answer 'Tell me about yourself' without crying.) 
  🔥 "Your Inner Critic is a Liar (And Also Kind of a Jerk)" (Why your brain is an unpaid intern with terrible opinions.) 
  🔥 "Nobody Actually Knows What They’re Doing (And That’s Beautiful)" (How billionaires, CEOs, and your boss are all just making stuff up.) 
  If you’ve ever felt like an imposter, like a fraud, or like you are one “Let’s hop on a quick call” away from quitting life and living in the woods— this book is for you. 
  Because here’s the truth: 
  🚀 Nobody knows what they’re doing. They’re just pretending louder. 
  🔥 And now, so can you. 
  WARNING: This book will not help you grow as a person. It will, however, make you feel slightly better about the absolute trainwreck that is modern life.

  When Charlie Walden took on the job of Resident Judge of the Bermondsey Crown Court, he was hoping for a quiet life. But he soon finds himself struggling to keep the peace between three feisty fellow judges who have very different views about how to do their job, and about how Charlie should do his.
  And as if that's not enough, there's the endless battle against the 'Grey Smoothies', the humourless grey-suited civil servants who seem determined to drown Charlie in paperwork and strip the court of its last vestiges of civilisation.
  No hope of a quiet life then for Charlie, and there are times when his real job - trying the challenging criminal cases that come before him - actually seems like light relief.

  “If Huckleberry Finn were set on the Mexican-American border and written by the creators of South Park, it might read something like this.” —San Francisco Chronicle   Hailed by critics and lauded by readers for its riotously funny and scathing portrayal of America in an age of trial by media, materialism, and violence, Vernon God Little was an international sensation when it was first published in 2003 and awarded the prestigious Man Booker Prize.   The memorable portrait of America is seen through the eyes of a wry, young protagonist. Fifteen-year-old Vernon narrates the story with a cynical twang and a four-letter barb for each of his townsfolk, a medley of characters. With a plot involving a school shooting and death-row reality TV shows, Pierre’s effortless prose and dialogue combine to form a novel of postmodern gamesmanship.   “A dangerous, smart, ridiculous, and very funny first novel . . . Pierre renders adolescence brilliantly, capturing with seeming effortlessness the bright, contradictory hormone rush of teenage life.” —Sam Sifton, The New York Times
