  “What do you want to be when you grow up?” 
  “A prostitute!” said no girl ever. 
  Decades into her life as a secret courtesan, Sephe Haven is asking herself, how did this become my life? Why did this slipper fit? 
  From the author of the 2022 Reader's Favorite Gold Metal Winner: My Whorizontal Life, is the five-star rated prequel, A Someday Courtesan. The devastatingly honest account of what it means to grow up ‘girl’ in America. 
  This is the coming-of-age story of a sensitive, whimsical girl, with an over-abundant curiosity about everything from the power of touch to reincarnation. Determined to live an extraordinary life, Sephe seeks a path out of ordinary suburbia into the world of Acting and True Love. When her flirtatious superpower leads her into a den of wolves, she must learn to differentiate her allies from the wolves that will devour her, leading her to wonder, why is punishment the reaction to her sexuality? 
  How did this girl with enormous dreams end up as an escort? 
  Sephe Haven’s mesmerizing account reveals the wide-reaching societal impacts on girlhood development. And by following an escort’s intriguing journey to discover her identity, you’ll soon be laughing and crying with every moving and rarely told tale. 
  This is a woman's voice, a woman's experience, that should be given plenty of room on the shelves and in public discourses.

  Notebook

  The story behind Notebook starts with a minor crime: the theft of Tom Cox's rucksack from a Bristol pub in 2018. In that rucksack was a journal containing ten months' worth of notes, one of the many Tom has used to record his thoughts and observations over the past twelve years. It wasn't the best he had ever kept – his handwriting was messier than in his previous notebook, his entries more sporadic – but he still grieved for every one of the hundred or so lost pages. This incident made Tom appreciate how much notebook-keeping means to him: the act of putting pen to paper has always led him to write with an unvarnished, spur-of-the-moment honesty that he wouldn't achieve on-screen.
  Here, Tom has assembled his favourite stories, fragments, moments and ideas from those notebooks, ranging from memories of his childhood to the revelation that 'There are two types of people in the world. People who fucking love maps, and people who don't.' The result is a book redolent of the real stuff of life, shot through with Cox's trademark warmth and wit.

  AN NPR BOOK-OF-THE-DAY • A PUBLISHERS WEEKLY STAFF PICK • A NYLON MUST-READ • A FORTUNE NEW BOOK TO READ IN AUGUST 
  “And, at the center of it all, am I actually nice or am I just performing a role I think I’m expected to play?” Mia Mercado is a razor-sharp cultural critic and essayist known for her witty and hilarious dissections of the uncomfortable truths that rule our lives. In this thought-provoking collection of new essays, Mercado examines what it means to be “polite,” “agreeable,” and “nice.” She covers topics from the subtleties of the “Bad Bitch” and why women dominate the ASMR market, to what makes her dog an adorable little freak and how you know if you’re shy. This is a book about the unspoken trick mirror of our “good” intentions: the inherent performance of the social media apology, celebrating men when they do the bare minimum, and why we trust a Midwesterner to watch our stuff when we go pee. 
  Throughout, she ponders her identity as an Asian woman and asks what “nice” even means—and why anyone would want to be it. With writing that is as precise as it is profound, and cultural references that range from trash reality television to the New York Times Sunday-morning crossword puzzle, Mercado uncovers weird, long-overdue truths about our frailties and failings. In the end, she sees them not as a source of shame but as a cause for celebration. Filled with revelations that range from the silly to the serious, 
  She’s Nice Though offers a mind-bending glimpse into the illusions and delusions of contemporary life—and reveals who we *really* are when no one is watching.
