Summary

RING IN ANOTHER YEAR WITH THE "FRESH, FUNNY, AND FIESTY STAR DETECTIVE" 
Raiders of the Lost Ark meets The Maltese Falcon in this Maizie Albright Star Detective New Year's Eve action & adventure-styled humorous crime caper from Wall Street Journal bestselling author Larissa Reinhart. 
"The mystery and detective cases drive the story, but Larissa Reinhart's characters steal the show every time." — The Girl with Book Lungs 
This New Year's Eve, Maizie Albright's happy to leave aside her Hollywood alde lang syne for the sake of a new life with family and friends in Black Pine, Georgia. There are so many reasons to celebrate.  
A new home with her father's family 
Her new career as an assistant private investigator to hunky Wyatt Nash.  
A new love life with hunky Wyatt Nash… 
However, a new career and home mean responsibilities. Like getting called in on a case on New Year's Eve day. And babysitting Remi, her half-sister (and possibly half-Tasmanian devil) while her dad's out of town. What's a private investigator in training to do?  
Make New Year's Eve day "take your sister to work day." 
But when a woman arrives at Nash Security Solutions, asking about an old movie prop Maizie had given to her father, her New Year's Eve gets crazier than Times Square at midnight. Before champagne toasts and the Big Peach drops, Maizie has twelve hours to reprise her most detested role to protect her family from old acquaintances best forgot and never brought to mind. Will these ruthless villains pop Maizie's cork before the clock strikes twelve? Or worse yet, drop the ball on her sister?

    A short story with a dash of humour, contemporary, set in inner-Sydney. It’s raining cats and dogs and Rick is being jabbed by the hot needle of panic.  He’s running late now after dashing out to get last minute dessert for the crucial dinner party tonight where Rick and wife Vanessa are entertaining Vanessa’s boss and his wife.  Rick carefully wheels his pride-and-joy, his almost-new Audi, around the block looking for a parking space. He’d had everything set, the Audi tucked away in a nearby street so that Vanessa’s boss and wife could park in Rick’s little private space at the back of the house. Friday night and in this fashionable inner-city suburb it’s easier for a straight white male to win a Premier’s arts prize than it is to find a free space. But it’s okay, as a last resort Rick can park across his own driveway blocking in the boss’ car.  Except that he can’t, can he?  Some selfish bastard has already parked there. Enraged, Rick mangles the windscreen wipers of the offending car, only to learn when he joins the dinner party, that the boss and his wife brought two vehicles.  Can Rick make good before the stroke of doom?

    When Jesus was asked to sum up the whole huge leather Bible into one simple phrase, he actually gave us two commandments. But modern evangelicals have short attention spans and only heard that we should love our neighbor. Christians everywhere have bought ineffective refrigerator magnets and bumper stickers, but in this book, we will give you better stickers and magnets because we finally found the perfect formula to honor God through block parties! 
    What would happen if every follower of Jesus twisted the Great Commandment into only loving our neighbors? Is it possible we can create world peace by ignoring that whole subjective 'loving God' part and throwing a block party instead? 
    The Art of Shallow Neighboring was penned in response to the sheer number of Christian books and organizations casting aside true Biblical study and discipleship for trendy business practices and scriptural mis-interpretations. While this book is intended to be a Christian comedy and parody, there is nothing funny about the way modern evangelicalism is treating the Bible. Hopefully this book will help people everywhere realize we need to stop looking for the shortcuts to God, and instead set down our digital devices, pull out that old dusty Bible, and begin true and deep study. I implore small groups to put aside video curricula and appoint a wise teacher of the Bible to teach, and for Churches to truly place the Bible above trendy business practices. Let us repent and return to God as they did in the time of Ezra, the priest.

    Lloyd Boyd is taking a shower when God calls on him to become a personal preacher, but the under-achieving Lloyd is not entirely sure what that entails. After he drops off business cards at his local grocery store, bus stop, and gas station, he starts getting calls! Soon, Lloyd is inundated with requests, including one from Selma, who wants her husband to rediscover faith, and Miss Minerva and Miss Flossie, who are tempted to sell their church for $5 million. Though he has doubts about his call from God, Lloyd stumbles and bumbles through his new role as a personal preacher, and his unconventional style somehow manages to get through to people who were convinced all hope was lost. A comedy about keeping the faith, I Flunked Sunday School reminds you that God does indeed have a plan for everyone's lives, even Lloyd Boyd's.

    The #1 New York Times–bestselling humorist’s tribute to car travel is “a ride worth taking, even for readers who don’t know an oil pan from a frying pan” (The Washington Times).   From a veteran of both Car and Driver and National Lampoon magazines, this hilarious book chronicles the golden age of the automobile in America—and takes us on a whirlwind tour of the world’s most scenic and bumpiest roads in trouble-laden cross-country treks, from a 1978 Florida-to-California escapade in a 1956 special four-door Buick sedan, to a thousand-mile effort across Mexico in the Baja 1000 in 1983, to a journey through Kyrgyzstan in 2006 on the back of a Soviet army surplus six-wheel-drive truck.   For longtime fans of the celebrated humorist, the collection features a host of O’Rourke’s classic pieces on driving, including “How to Drive Fast on Drugs While Getting Your Wing-Wang Squeezed and Not Spill Your Drink,” about the potential misdeeds one might perform in the front (and back) seat of an automobile; “The Rolling Organ Donors Motorcycle Club,” which chronicles a seven-hundred-mile weekend trip through Michigan and Indiana that O’Rourke took on a Harley-Davidson; his brilliant and funny piece from Rolling Stone on NASCAR and its peculiar culture recorded during an alcohol-fueled weekend in Charlotte, North Carolina, in 1977; and an hilarious account of a ride from Islamabad to Calcutta in Land Rover’s new Discovery Trek.   “Never in neutral, O’Rourke offers laughter on wheels.” —Publishers Weekly   “An insightful look not just at the American love affair with cars, but also at one man’s changing outlook on life, all of it fast-paced and over the top . . . Even readers who know nothing about cars and motorcycles will appreciate the joy and hilarity of this book.” —Booklist
