Amazon.com In a thoughtful mixture of autobiography, journalism, and cultural criticism, Ann Powers examines how "bohemian" culture--which many consider dead and buried--has seeped into the American mainstream. While writing extensively about her own trajectory from communal living and a dead-end record-store job in San Francisco to cohabital bliss and a staff position as a rock critic for The New York Times, Powers also takes great care to include the perspectives of her peers, even when their impressions clash violently with her own. In doing so, she turns Weird Like Us into a frontline analysis of how the members of (dare we say it?) Generation X try to find significance and purpose in their lives. hard to shock most Americans," Powers notes in a chapter on the shifts in sexual politics and culture. "But it's hard to engage them, too." Weird Like Us shows how this applies to many other aspects of social life besides sex: experimentation and variance have become increasingly normal... See less

At the beginning of 2005, Frank Warren launched a new blog called PostSecret as an experiment in community art, inviting strangers to mail him anonymous postcards that made art out of their innermost secrets and then posting a selection of the cards every week on his blog. Within a year, his blog was one of the five most popular in the world, and his first book, PostSecret, was one of the surprise bestsellers of 2005. My Secret is his second book, a collection of cards from teens and college students--none of which has been shown on the website--that carries the same emotional power and creativity that have made Warren's project a phenomenon. We are featuring seven postcards from the book here: see two of them on this page, and click on the numbers below to see five more.

The Barnes & Noble Review Meg Cabot, a New York Times bestseller known for her historical romances and her popular Princess Diaries series, turns her attention to the challenges of the modern age in this humorous tale of life and love gone wrong. Kate Mackenzie, human resources representative at a big New York photo-newspaper, has hit rock bottom. Her boyfriend of ten years has announced he cannot commit; she can't find an affordable studio on her measly salary; and her loathsome boss has asked her to fire Ida Lopez, the creator of the best chocolate chip cookie on the planet and the most popular employee in the staff dining room. When Ida sues the paper, Kate is forced to give a deposition in front of Ida's lawyer, Mitch Herzog, who just happens to be the brother of the man her tyrannical boss is about to marry. But if Mitch is against her, why does he keep asking her out? Cabot employs the formats of emails, phone messages, instant messages, to-do lists, and internal memos to deliver... See less

The only thing Jean Honeychurch hates more than her boring name (not Jean Marie, or Jeanette, just . . . Jean) is her all-too-appropriate nickname, Jinx. Misfor-tune seems to follow her everywhere she goes—which is why she's thrilled to be moving in with her aunt and uncle in New York City. Maybe when she's halfway across the country, Jinx can finally outrun her bad luck. Or at least escape the havoc she's caused back in her small hometown. But trouble has definitely followed Jinx to New York. And it's causing big problems for her cousin Tory, who is not happy to have the family black sheep around. Beautiful, glamorous Tory is hiding a dangerous secret—one that she's sure Jinx is going to reveal. Jinx is beginning to realize it isn't just bad luck she's been running from. It's something far more sinister . . . and the curse Jinx has lived under since the day she was born might just be the only thing that can save her life.

December 18th, 2007: The day in which Project 17 by Laurie Faria Stolarz was finally put on shelves. Fact is, I haven’t been this excited to crack open a book since Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows by J.K. Rowling and Eclipse by Stephenie Meyer were released. Those books are, in no doubt, very hard acts to follow, but Laurie certainly achieved her job in doing just that and more. Maybe it's because of my intense interest in ghosts and other supernatural things, or maybe it's because I'm a fool for all things Laurie Faria Stolarz - or maybe it's both - but I absolutely could not put down Laurie's newest young adult suspense thriller, Project 17. No one’s ever made documenting a break-in into an abandoned mental institution look so good. In fact, it took me an estimated four and a half hours to read it with barely any downtime. That is, if you don’t count me taking a breather for two hours as to get some food in my system and to shower. Believe me, if doing those things while reading... See less

Lizzie Nichols may have worked thirty pounds off of her body, shrinking herself down to a size nine, but this tiny girl still has one very big problem: her mouth. And now, as she boards a flight, heading to London to spend the summer with her boyfriend - Andrew - of three months, even though they've only spent 24-hours with each other so far, she knows that her babbling problem is bound to get her into trouble. However, once she arrives in England, she realizes that Andrew is the one with a big problem: he's a compulsive liar looking to use her for money so he can settle up his gambling fees. So, Lizzie rises to her 5'6 stature, and marches off, heading straight to France, where she will spend the summer with her best friend, Shari, at a vineyard called Mirac. The problem is that Shari has no idea Lizzie is on her way, so Lizzie is basically entering the lion's den. Until she meets Luke - the son of Mirac's owner. Luke's looks alone entice Lizzie, but it's his kindness that wins her... See less

This was an amazingly funny read that fan's of chick lit should surly appreciate and those readers that may not naturally gravitate to chick lit will find this a worthwhile read that offers both a quirky look at travel and romance. This book is set up in journal, and e-mail format and the story is told through these formats via Jane Harris, and Cal Langdon as well as the secondary characters of Mark Levin, and Holly Caputo. Together these four will take us on a roller coaster ride of laughs on the way to an elopement in Italy of Mark and Holly. There is never a dull moment on the road to romance, and the final destination of matrimony will be no different, especially with Cal and Jane along for the ride. Cal is a cynic from the word go and does not believe in romance or love. Love is a chemical imbalance in the brain as far as he's concerned and the concept of people staying together for forty or fifty years proves that there is something very wrong with them. Jane on the other hand is... See less
