Book Description
Eat, Pray, #FML quickly found its audience-rather its worldwide tribe of women-who have fiercely followed Gabrielle into the fiery pits of heartache, through the sometimes-ugly valleys of depression, on the roller coaster highs and lows of solo travel, and into the depths of what it really means to love yourself-healing. As the book fans demanded more, and Eat, Pray, #FML became the heartbreak Bible, it was clear that Gabrielle would need to deliver a sequel-but not just any sequel. A sequel that would have all the wild love affairs, the devastating heartbreaks, the magic of solo travel, and the captivating drama we think only exists in the untamed fiction novels we read-and Gabrielle replied, challenge accepted. The Ridiculous Misadventures of a Single Girl has all of the above. It gives readers an intimate look into what Gabrielle went through when she returned home from her grand European adventure, the challenges she faced as she tried to put the pieces back together, the men-new and old-that shook her world, and the epic conclusion to the real-life story so many have become invested in. If you thought Eat, Pray, #FML was a wild ride, just wait until readers sit down to devour the follow-up that has all the characters they fell in love with, new highs and lows to ride, a soul-defining journey to the other side of the world, and answers to all of their burning questions-this, is The Ridiculous Misadventures of a Single Girl.

Gotham Girl Interrupted
Author: Alisa Kennedy Jones
Publisher: Charlesbridge Publishing
ISBN: 1632892170
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 226
Book Description
Nora Ephron and Allie Brosh fans take note: Alisa Jones' memoir Gotham Girl Interrupted is a smart stand-up comedy about the power of falling down. "Get to your safe spaces, people. Here comes the shimmer..." From irreverent NYC blogger Alisa Kennedy Jones comes an account of her "misadventures in motherhood, love, and epilepsy" that James Patterson calls "smart, harrowing, heart-warming, and very funny." What do Da Vinci, Agatha Christie, and blogger Alisa Kennedy Jones have in common? If you said "timeless artistic genius", stop sucking up--the answer is ecstatic epilepsy. In this hilarious and moving dispatch from the frontlines of neurodiversity, Jones chronicles life with these terrifying-yet-beautiful grand mal seizures. Characteristic of Jones's condition are attacks which leave her with what Zen Buddhists sometimes refer to as a "beginner's mind": a vast, open expanse of headspace, coupled with a creative euphoria. With bracing candor and humility, Jones describes living with chronic illness, single motherhood, and her day-to-day life as a hapless writer in NYC. Above all, Jones reminds us to fight the battle for becoming who we are supposed to be--no matter how much flopping around on the ground and wetting ourselves we have to do to get there.

Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 290
Book Description
A New York Times bestselling, riotously funny collection of boozy misadventures from the creator of the YouTube series, “You Deserve a Drink.” Mamrie Hart is a drinking star with a Youtube problem. With over a million subscribers to her cult-hit video series “You Deserve a Drink,” Hart has been entertaining viewers with a combination of tasty libations and raunchy puns since 2011. Hart also co-wrote/co-starred in Dirty Thirty and Camp Takota with Grace Helbig and Hannah Hart. Finally, Hart has compiled her best drinking stories—and worst hangovers—into one hilarious volume. From the spring break where she and her girlfriends avoided tan lines by staying at an all-male gay nudist resort, to the bachelorette party where she accidentally hired a sixty-year-old meth head to teach the group pole dancing (not to mention the time she lit herself on fire during a Flaming Lips concert), Hart accompanies each story with an original cocktail recipe, ensuring that You Deserve a Drink is as educational as it is entertaining. With cameos from familiar friends from the YouTube scene and a foreword by Grace Helbig, this glimpse into Hart’s life brings warmth and humor to the woman fans know and love. And for readers who haven’t met Mamrie yet—take a warm-up shot and break out the cocktail shaker: you’re going to need a drink. “Hart is a pull-no-punches comedian with a talent for self-deprecation in the guise of self-aggrandizement, a winning formula.”—The New York Times
