Romantic Comedy

I’m in love with my best friend—and he has no idea.

Our parents have been best friends since before we were born. We were in diapers together, bathed together, were in the same classes from pre-school to high school. Now we’re adults living on campus and I focus on features I didn’t notice before. Like how big his arms are. The way his handsome face hardens when he concentrates. His sexy smile. The way every girl stares when he passes. Now that attraction has turned into something deeper, an ache in my chest.

When I finally confess my secret to my friend Trinity, she tells her own secret—that Cayson used to feel the same way. But that was months ago, and because I had a boyfriend, he moved on. I decide to tell him the truth in the hope his feelings are still alive, but then I meet Jasmine…his new girlfriend. Now I’m utterly in love with a man that was in love with me, but I missed my chance. I have to hang out with them as a couple and smile when I’m dying inside. I have to get to know her when I want nothing to do with her. And then Cayson, who knows me better than anyone, knows something’s bothering me.

Paranormal Fantasy

Have you ever wished your cat could talk to you? If so, allow my story to be your cautionary tale.
My life was going just fine by most standards. I ran a successful business in a tight-knit magical community, and lived just blocks from a beautiful lake and series of hiking trails.

Then Selene showed up.

According to some magical code I inherit my aunt’s ancient familiar; a grumpy ten-pound cat with a broken filter. She fancies herself something of a saber-toothed tiger, and claims to have wrestled the thread of her ninth life from the hands of the Fates themselves — although, I’m pretty sure that last part isn’t true.

Almost positive.

I’m still looking into the magical fine print, but in the meantime I’m stuck as the guardian to a cat with the personality of Sophia from the Golden Girls.

Biographies of Comedians

The comedian and former late-night host discusses his life, career, struggles with drugs & alcohol, and his love of the United States in this memoir.

In American on Purpose, Craig Ferguson delivers a moving and achingly funny memoir of living the American dream as he journeys from the mean streets of Glasgow, Scotland, to the comedic promised land of Hollywood. Along the way he stumbles through several attempts to make his mark—as a punk rock musician, a construction worker, a bouncer, and, tragically, a modern dancer.

To numb the pain of failure, Ferguson found comfort in drugs and alcohol, addictions that eventually led to an aborted suicide attempt. (He forgot to do it when someone offered him a glass of sherry.) But his story has a happy ending: success on the hit sitcom The Drew Carey Show, and later as the host of CBS’s Late Late Show. By far Ferguson’s greatest triumph was his decision to become a U.S. citizen, a milestone he achieved in early 2008.

Biographies of Serial Killers

Authorities opened the door on one man’s hidden life . . .

Mike DeBardeleben was known as the Mall Passer for the way he passed off fake money at local shopping centers. But when US Secret Service agents finally arrested him, they were met with more than just phony bills. They found that their counterfeiter led a shocking double life . . .

Movie & Video Guides & Reviews

The Pulitzer Prize–winning film critics offers up more reviews of horrible films.

Roger Ebert awards at least two out of four stars to most of the more than 150 movies he reviews each year. But when the noted film critic does pan a movie, the result is a humorous, scathing critique far more entertaining than the movie itself.

I Hated, Hated, Hated This Movie is a collection of more than 200 of Ebert’s most biting and entertaining reviews of films receiving a mere star or less from the only film critic to win the Pulitzer Prize. Ebert has no patience for these atrocious movies and minces no words in skewering the offenders.

Witness: Armageddon * (1998)—The movie is an assault on the eyes, the ears, the brain, common sense, and the human desire to be entertained. No matter what they’re charging to get in, it’s worth more to get out.
