  Fresh from a night in a Miami jail, Steven lands in Guatemala City, ready for riotous road trips fuelled by booze, cocaine and passionate curiosity about people from all walks of life.
  
  His guide? Antonio, a sweet-natured, streetwise hotel concierge who shepherds Steven through colonial Antigua, the volcanic shores of Lake Atitlán and the untamed beaches of Monterrico. Danger is never far off, but neither are laughs – and there's plenty of both when Steven accompanies Antonio on a visit to his rural home village.
  
  Then there's Anabella, a glamourous, garrulous, middle-aged woman with whom Steven strikes up an unlikely friendship, accompanying her back to the capital with her family. There he mooches an open-ended stay in her gated community, which bristles with armed guards and famous eccentrics.
  
  Froelich's gonzo travelogue is a darkly hilarious, unapologetic plunge into beauty and madness, privilege and privation. With a raw, witty voice, Froelich explores the absurdities of the human condition, never letting truth get in the way of a good story.

  Everyone’s favorite moral philosopher and amateur sleuth, Isabel Dalhousie, is  
  back and once again finds herself facing a number of tricky situations and  
  philosophical questions, both public and private. 
  Isabel’s life has fallen into a comfortable and tidy rhythm. Well, as tidy as things  
  can be with two small boys wreaking havoc around the house. But when her  
  husband, Jamie, invites a woman named Dawn—recently embroiled in a  
  contentious affair with a member of Jamie’s orchestra—to stay with them, things  
  begin to go awry. Strange noises can be heard from the upper floor, even when  
  Dawn is supposedly at work, and the couple wonders whether something more  
  nefarious may be afoot. 
  If that weren’t enough, Professor Robert Lettuce is staging an academic  
  conference and has asked Isabel to publish the conference papers in a special  
  issue of the Review of Applied Ethics. But something is definitely suspect about  
  the funding, and it will be up to Isabel to sort it out. As the truth comes to light,  
  Isabel must once more rely on her kindness, powers of deduction and  
  philosophical expertise to navigate these sensitive matters.

  The New Rules for Blondes

  Writer, comedienne, and full-time Blonde, Selena Coppock offers up adventures, misadventures, and golden-hued nuggets of wisdom in a laugh-out-loud anthem for those of us who really do have more fun. . . . 
  The modern blonde is savvy, wise, confident, capable, and not afraid to laugh at herself when the occasion calls for it. She knows who she is and is prepared to subvert all stereotypes (although she's not above wielding her golden tresses to her advantage), and knows how to be both classy and a little brassy. 
  In the way only a Boston-bred New Yorker who once won "Best Hair" in her high school graduating class could, Coppock doles out tongue-in-cheek advice about avoiding hair disasters, the consequences of dating a man who cares a little too much about his own hair product, and so much more in an outrageous essay collection that will have even the staunchest of raven-haired beauties considering a trip to the nearest salon.
