Summary

"You know what they say about good times, don't you?" 
Yeah, good times never last. But that doesn't necessarily mean that any of us can't learn from them. Or in this case, me, myself and I. Here's to those that didn't quite make the cut; though more importantly, here's to saying what was duly needed to be said.

    The Ugly One in the Middle is about Stan Campbell's wicked, and often witty story of the search for two people, his birth mom, and the angelic, sensual woman of his dreams. Kind of romantic, right? But, wait...there is humor, mystery and intrigue. Just before Stan's sixteenth birthday, his Aunt Patsy accidentally let it slip that his mom and pop did not conceive him. No surprise. Parents having sex? Quel horror! His adoptive mom knew something dark, but she wasn't talking. It didn't matter much...then. Stan's top priorities of the day were drowning his bashfulness in a wine and rubbing alcohol mix. That didn't work. He threw up and fell down a lot. After leaving his rural Cape Breton home, Stan found periods of sobriety, interrupted by evenings of alcoholic blackouts, and the end of virginity, culminating in a terror-filled evening of lust. Stan's story is roller-coaster of multiple marriages, followed by multiple divorces, caused mostly by multiple affairs while pursuing a career as a big city radio DJ.

    In the unforgettable opener, 'The Infamous Bengal Ming,' a misunderstood tiger's affection for his keeper goes horribly awry. In 'Demons,' a woman tries to celebrate Thanksgiving after the sudden death of her husband, even though his corpse is still sprawled on their living-room floor. In 'The Strange Career of Dr. Raju Gopalarajan,' an ex-CompUSA employee sets up a medical practice in a suburban strip mall armed only with textbooks from the local library and fake business cards. The heroes - and anti-heroes - of this collection include a railroad manager in a turn-of-the-century Indian village, the newlywed executioner of the title, and an elephant writing her autobiography - the creations of a riotous, singular imagination that promises to dazzle the universe of American fiction.

    Adventures in Fishing for Men -...

    Does evangelism and witnessing make you uncomfortable? If so, you’re about to be set free … or maybe you’ll become even more uncomfortable.  
     
    Using irony, satire, and humor, Jeremy Myers writes Adventures in Fishing for Men as an allegorical story about a man’s quest to become a world-famous fisherman—without ever catching any fish. As an allegory about evangelism, this book is not about fishing, but about fishing for men. 
     
    While a few of the stories are from the author’s own life, all of the stories portray the general Christian approach to evangelism. As you read Adventures in Fishing for Men, you will see yourself in many of the stories, and will either be set free from weird methods of modern evangelistic practices, or will become upset at how your cherished traditions are being portrayed.  
     
    The nameless fisherman of this book serves as a mirror to all who read of his adventures, shining a light on how far Christianity has strayed from the example set by Jesus. He who has ears to hear, let him hear!

    Lucy tries so hard to be good. She was always a good student, tries to be a good friend, a good citizen, a good feminist, and now she wants a lover who will give her a good beating, preferably after tying her up. 
    Dating swings from the sublime to the humiliating, but then Lucy hooks up with someone who challenges her to pursue the writing career she has been letting idle. When she discovers a teen magazine from the 1970s, it sparks her imagination and her life finally seems to come into focus; but as she learns more about how women were treated behind the scenes, she has to decide what to do. How to be true to herself, as chaotic as she believes herself to be; how to be good to those around her; how to survive as a young woman in the still messy media culture of 2015. 
    Surprising, sexy, and hilarious, Good Girl is a thoughtful and endearing portrait of a young woman unsure of what she’s supposed to want from a world where the rules keep changing.
