Book Description
Young women today have a bad reputation, and for good reason: They’re sexting their classmates, they spend more time on FaceBook than they do in class, and their appetite for material possessions and reality TV is matched only by their overwhelming apathy about important social and political issues. Right? Wrong. FBomb blog creator Julie Zeilinger debunks these (and other) myths about modern youth in A Little F’d Up, the first book about feminism for young women in their teens and twenties to actually be written by one of their peers. In this accessible handbook, Zeilinger takes a critical, honest, and humorous look at where young feminists are as a generation, and where they’re going—and she does so from the perspective of someone who’s in the trenches right alongside her readers. Fun, funny, and engaging, A Little F’d Up is a must-read for the growing number of intelligent, informed young women out there who are ready to start finding their voice—and changing the world.

Book Description
From the writer hailed for giving voice to a generation in Kids These Days comes a bold rejection of a society in which inequality, police violence, and exploitation have come to define our lives In these new and selected pieces, Malcolm Harris, one of our sharpest and most versatile critics, examines everything from the lowering of wages to the rise of fascism—and the maddening cultural landscape in between. Along the way, he explores protest strategies past and present; questions the wrong (and often racist) lessons we’ve learned from American history; and, most comfortingly, assures us that Marx saw the necessity of a crisis moment just like the one we're in. Rarely does a writer come along who can turn our world so thoroughly upside down that we can finally understand it for what it really is, but Harris's wry and biting essays do just that, and help us laugh at what we see. Our economic situation, political discourse, and future prospects have gotten much worse since a guy brought a sign that said "Shit is Fucked Up and Bullshit" to the Occupy Wall Street protests. We all knew what he meant then . . . but where are we now? And how has so much happened since the so-called end of history? The over thirty pieces collected here offer compelling answers to these questions and more.

Book Description
#1 New York Times Bestseller Over 10 million copies sold In this generation-defining self-help guide, a superstar blogger cuts through the crap to show us how to stop trying to be "positive" all the time so that we can truly become better, happier people. For decades, we’ve been told that positive thinking is the key to a happy, rich life. "F**k positivity," Mark Manson says. "Let’s be honest, shit is f**ked and we have to live with it." In his wildly popular Internet blog, Manson doesn’t sugarcoat or equivocate. He tells it like it is—a dose of raw, refreshing, honest truth that is sorely lacking today. The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F**k is his antidote to the coddling, let’s-all-feel-good mindset that has infected American society and spoiled a generation, rewarding them with gold medals just for showing up. Manson makes the argument, backed both by academic research and well-timed poop jokes, that improving our lives hinges not on our ability to turn lemons into lemonade, but on learning to stomach lemons better. Human beings are flawed and limited—"not everybody can be extraordinary, there are winners and losers in society, and some of it is not fair or your fault." Manson advises us to get to know our limitations and accept them. Once we embrace our fears, faults, and uncertainties, once we stop running and avoiding and start confronting painful truths, we can begin to find the courage, perseverance, honesty, responsibility, curiosity, and forgiveness we seek. There are only so many things we can give a f**k about so we need to figure out which ones really matter, Manson makes clear. While money is nice, caring about what you do with your life is better, because true wealth is about experience. A much-needed grab-you-by-the-shoulders-and-look-you-in-the-eye moment of real-talk, filled with entertaining stories and profane, ruthless humor, The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F**k is a refreshing slap for a generation to help them lead contented, grounded lives.

That's why award-winning author and pastor Kevin DeYoung addresses the busyness problem head on in his newest book, Crazy Busy — and not with the typical arsenal of time management tips, but rather with the biblical tools we need to get to the source of the issue and pull the problem out by the roots.

Book Description
In the South, artificial hair is king, and chicks pay top dollar for the best there is. For a poor white girl in a drug ridden home, Megan sees it as her chance to escape. Nicki, her friend and partner in crime, sees it as a way to keep her brother alive, a young black youth who lies in a coma that she prays one day will finally wake up. But the hair they sell doesn't come their scalp, nor is it something they bought in supply. They've picked up the hustle of robbing rich men then passing off all of the goods as their own. But when the two roll up on the wrong somebody, who takes their deed a little too personal, it soon sets off a chain of events that just might cost both girls their lives.

Book Description
The most fucked up memoir you’ll ever read. A foul-mouthed memoir about a dysfunctional life. Each chapter recounts a key moment in the author’s life through the books she was reading at the time including: • Howard’s End, the only text she had read whilst engaging in sexual intercourse. • The Secret Diary of Adrian Mole, which she had in her bag while on holiday in Tangier when a market trader offered her to buy her from her mother for 30 camels. • Angela’s Ashes, her chosen reading material during her breast reduction surgery. • Wild Swans, the book she read the day she decided to have nothing more to do with her mother. It is funny, it is shocking, it is heartbreaking, it is very rude and it is totally unforgettable.

Book Description
Rabeckha Donaldson was a single parent just trying to do her best to get by. Saddled within a poverty cycle and dragging around a wide variety of mental problems, Rabeckha's life seemed destined for failure. But in a lifetime full of its own trials and regrets, the one thing that she could always hold on to was the love and continued safety of her three precious boys. Their day-to-day became her every day, and it was enough to steady the torrential, anxious waters she would sail through. However, when life starts to kick you even after you're already down, how can you stay afloat? When your house slowly crumbles around you and a string of stalkers threaten to ensnare your entire life, how can you know which way is up? Rabeckha is forced to ask herself these very same questions as her and her childrens' lives begin a tragic collapse. Teetering towards a complete breakdown, Rabeckah's mind lingers between desperation for her children and suicidal thoughts. When events unfold and those thoughts threaten to become more, Rabeckah must wrestle with her shattered hopes, embittered fears, and the desperate actions she may have to take.
