  Bad Advice - How to Survive and...

  Over motivational messages? Sick AF of inspirational quotes? Done with the shiny happy bad advice that gets you nowhere? Well, heads up: you’re about to get a shitload of Good Advice. 
  In Bad Advice, relationship expert Dr. Venus Nicolino—a.k.a. Dr. V—takes a blowtorch to the shrink-wrapped, “feel good” BS that passes for self-help these days. 
  When you’re heartbroken, what do you hear? You can’t love anyone until you love yourself. When someone’s hurt you? Nobody can make you feel bad without your permission. When you’re just a little too positive? Expectations lead to disappointment. 
  Pop culture noise gives Bad Advice the varnish of truthiness and inspiration.  But it’s not truth; it’s not inspiration. It’s bullshit. And at its root, all Bad Advice operates off the same lie: Emotions are optional. In Bad Advice, Dr. V delivers a bracing truth serum, in the form of Good Advice—an antidote to the bullshit, from “Just Be Yourself” to “Live Each Day Like It’s Your Last,” that teaches you to live your life in a way that honors who you are, what you need, and how you feel. 
  Smart and irreverent, Dr. V fuses the brains and insight of a nerdy Ph.D. with the heart of a doting Italian Mother and the artful profanity of a Philly trucker. Dr. V’s signature combination of humor, hard science, and heart make Bad Advice an iconoclastic course-correction like no other. A fiercely sharp wake-up call that tackles some of self-help’s most damaging truisms, Bad Advice is a never shy guide to tapping into your full potential.

  Face It-- We Are A Nation Of Complainers. 
  We complain when our team loses, when the TV program’s dull, when the weather turns on us. We grumble about bad politicians and stupid laws and shoes that pinch. The average American complains an average of twenty times a day! You need to know how to complain effectively, to make your voice heard. A smart consumer will save money, time, and aggravation. 
  I’m surprising good at getting results. I have saved more money than I can tell you by not paying for faulty products, and even more by using the vouchers for free products that companies almost always send to me, once I bring an issue to their attention. 
  This commonsense and humorous consumer advocacy guide will show you how to get decent customer service; what you paid for, what you expect, no more, no less. I’ve included stories of customer service---and its opposite—as well as sample letters of complaint that will get the attention of the very people who can help you. Don’t waste another dollar! This easy to follow program details how to get the best value for your money, and it’s a lot more interesting than other consumer advocate books out there! 
  A product should perform as advertised. Services should be professional, and timely. Let me show you how to complain, as needed, and actually make a difference. Read How to Complain...and get what you deserve!

  The Love Jones Cohort - Single...

  Drawing from stratification economics, intersectionality, and respectability politics, The Love Jones Cohort centers on the voices and lifestyles of members of the Black middle class who are single and living alone (SALA). While much has been written about both the Black middle class and the rise of singlehood, this book represents a first foray into bridging these two concepts. In studying these intersections, The Love Jones Cohort provides a more nuanced understanding of how race, gender, and class, coupled with social structures, shape five central lifestyle factors of Black middle-class adults who are SALA. The book explores how these Black adults define family and friends and decide on whether and how to pursue romantic relationships, articulate the ebbs and flows of being Black and middle class, select where to live and why, accumulate and disseminate wealth, and maintain overall health, well-being, and coping mechanisms.
