Sinopse

In "Potluck Panic Protocol," Martha Simmons, a retired librarian with an obsession for order, faces her ultimate challenge: hosting the annual neighborhood potluck in the charming town of Millbrook. When a simple invitation mix-up leads to an eclectic assortment of unexpected guests, Martha's carefully orchestrated event descends into hilarious mayhem.   
Vegetarians butt heads with barbecue enthusiasts, while gluten-free zealots wage war against pastry aficionados, turning the gathering into a comedic battleground of dietary preferences and cultural clashes. Determined to salvage her soirée, Martha enlists the help of her tech-savvy grandson and a motley crew of neighbors. Together, they concoct increasingly absurd "protocols" to navigate the chaos, resulting in uproarious consequences that will leave readers in stitches.   
This clever, warm-hearted tale serves up a generous helping of laughter while exploring themes of community spirit, flexibility, and finding joy in life's unexpected twists. With its quirky characters, suburban setting, and running gag of escalating potluck rules, this social satire offers a delightful feast for fans of humorous fiction and family dynamics.

    Are you tired of pretending to care? Do you want to survive life with the absolute least amount of emotional effort? Congratulations—you’re ready to become Dead Inside, But Functional. 
    Life is exhausting. People expect enthusiasm, deep emotional connections, and basic human engagement. Annoying. But guess what? You don’t actually have to care—you just have to look like you do. 
    This book is not about healing. It’s about perfecting the fine art of detachment while still participating in society just enough to avoid suspicion. 
    Inside, You’ll Learn: 
    ☠️ How to master the dead-eyed customer service smile while thinking about absolutely nothing 
    ☠️ The science of responding to any crisis with “Damn, that sucks” and moving on immediately 
    ☠️ Why “It is what it is” should be your life motto 
    ☠️ How to fake emotional depth by saying, “I just don’t open up easily” 
    ☠️ Strategic bathroom breaks: The only legally acceptable way to escape responsibility 
    ☠️ How to nod convincingly while mentally escaping to Ancient Rome 
    ☠️ The trick to falling asleep in three minutes by accepting your own mortality 
    ☠️ How to function just enough at work so no one notices you’re doing absolutely nothing 
    This is not a motivational book. It won’t inspire you. It won’t fix you. It will simply help you navigate life in the most effortless way possible, while maintaining just enough interaction to avoid being declared legally missing.

    Ever stood frozen in a grocery aisle, paralyzed by 37 types of orange juice or milk options that require a PhD to decode? Welcome to America—the land of freedom, fries, and fifty wildly different grocery store experiences. 
    In this delightfully quirky road trip, Robert Okine trades tourist traps for frozen food sections and souvenir shops for snack aisles. With the eyes of a global nomad and the wit of your favorite stand-up comic, he journeys state by state—from California’s kale sanctuaries to Texas’ brisket emporiums, from Vermont’s maple-syrup serenity to Florida’s hot mess of sunshine and Spam. 
    Forget Michelin stars—this is a love letter to the humble grocery store, where culture, identity, and chaos collide under fluorescent lights. It’s anthropology with a shopping cart, humor with heart, and America like you’ve never seen it: through the absurd abundance of almond milks, the regional pride of ranch dressings, and the soulful confessions of hot bars and deli counters. 
    Whether you're a curious traveler, a cultural junkie, or just someone who’s ever yelled “WHY are there eight kinds of frozen waffles?”—this book is for you. 
    Grab your reusable bags, buckle your snack belt, and prepare to laugh, nod, and crave a cheese curd you’ve never tasted. 
    Because in the U.S.A., one thing’s for sure: you’ll always have options.

    Veteran authors Everett and Kincaid present an uproarious send-up of one of America's most controversial American icons. 
     
     
     
    "[A]n outrageously funny satire of race relations and racism, US history, contemporary sexual mores and behavior, academia, and the publishing industry . . . It could become a cult-classic . . . Highly recommended." —Library Journal 
     
     
     
    Everett and Kincaid present a fictitious chronicle of South Carolina Senator Strom Thurmond's desire to pen a history of African Americans—his and his aides' belief being that he has done as much, or more, than any American to shape that history. An epistolary novel, A History follows the letters of loose-cannon congressional office workers, insane interns at a large New York publishing house, and disturbed publishing executives, along with homicidal rival editors, kindly family friends, and an aspiring author named Septic. Strom Thurmond appears charming and open, mad and sure of his place in American history.
