Sinopse

In 'Fibble, D.D.', Irvin S. Cobb presents a humorous yet poignant exploration of the quirks of human nature through the misadventures of its protagonist, Reverend J. Wyckoff Fibble. The novel employs a playful writing style that blends clever satire with rich character development, deeply rooting itself in the early 20th-century American social landscape. Cobb's adept use of wit captures the absurdities of small-town life and the contradictions of purported piety, making it a significant commentary on both the religious and cultural mores of the time. With its engaging narrative and vibrant dialogue, 'Fibble, D.D.' stands out as a unique contribution to the Americana genre. Irvin S. Cobb, an esteemed journalist and writer, was renowned for his incisive humor and keen social observations, shaped by his upbringing in Paducah, Kentucky. His vast experiences, from penning bite-sized essays to crafting engaging short stories, provided him with a unique lens through which to examine human follies. Cobb's personal encounters with religion and rural life enriched this narrative, allowing him to masterfully weave irony and humor into serious social critiques. For readers seeking an insightful blend of humor and social commentary, 'Fibble, D.D.' is a compelling choice. Cobb's sharp wit will resonate with fans of classic American literature, making this novel not only an entertaining read but also a reflective mirror on societal norms. Dive into the amusing escapades of Reverend Fibble and discover the timeless truths nestled within the laughter.

    Twenty-something Ruthie Cohen, a data entry minion for a second-tier movie app, spends her days thinking about the kickass meals she’s going to make for her besties, Trish and Lilly, while pining for Dean (sigh, Dean), her vacation fling from six months earlier. Could they have made it work in real life?
    		 
    On top of that, Bubbe Bobby Grace, Ruthie’s beloved and inspiring grandmother, passed away and left Ruthie an inheritance of $62,873.42, along with instructions on how to use it: “Follow your passion, Dollface.” During a prosecco-fueled night with her gal pals, Ruthie decides to turn her passion into a career and learn the art of French cooking, enrolling in culinary school, paying tuition, and buying her chef’s whites with a few quick clicks online. It’s not long before Ruthie marches into the kitchen and feels the heat from her cooking partner, Jeff, the super hunky (totally taken!) musician that weasels his way into her brain — right next to Dean.
    		 
    How can anyone be expected to focus on school, cooking, career planning, baking, friends, and deciding between two hot guys, especially when one of them also thinks that John Cusack is woefully underrated? And what if neither feels quite like Ruthie’s perfect pairing?

    A House to Let is a short story originally published in 1858 in the Christmas edition of Dickens' Household Words magazine. Each of the contributors wrote a chapter (stories within a story, or, in the case of Adelaide Anne Procter, poetry) and the story was edited by Dickens, who also wrote the first and last chapters with Wilkie Collins. The plot concerns an elderly woman, Sophonisba, who notices signs of life in a supposedly empty dilapidated house (the eponymous "House to Let") opposite her own, and employs the efforts of an elderly admirer, Jabez Jarber, and her servant, Trottle, to discover what is happening within. (Summary by Ruth Golding and Wikipedia)

    Three reasons I’m still single by Jayne Grandberry: 
    1. I’m eleven feet tall and guys are intimidated by my height… okay I’m just six foot, but you get the idea.

    3. Running a business is hard work, and doesn’t leave a lot of time for dating.

After my less then stellar first impression, I’m as surprised as anyone when we tumble into bed. Multiple times. For a nerdy single dad he’s got a lot of skills between the sheets.
