Book Description
I'M LIZETTE CLARY, also known as legendary Internet meme Epic Fail Girl. And for the last three months, I've been Jason Moon's pet project. Yes, that Jason Moon. The one with the Pulitzer. He's spending six months training me to become a worthy New Media Editor at RMG, and I've never been so happy being told everything I do is wrong. Truthfully, I'm more than a little bit into Jason, and the feeling is mutual. Our arrangement's more personal than professional. But he won't work with me if I don't follow his rules: No kissing, no sex, and no falling in love. No big deal! My career is rising fast, dudes hurl themselves at my feet, and there's no reason for me to be hung up on the one man I can't have. Even if I've destroyed three Hitachis and a dozen Kleenex boxes over him. Wait, where'd I put my copy of The Notebook? I need a drink. I'M JASON MOON, and I'm in deep trouble. I set out to change Lizette Clary. Instead, I'm confronting the cost of prioritizing work over romance in my empty bed every night. For the first time, the price seems too much, my walls too high, my life too lonely. Every day, it feels less crazy to imagine Lizette in my life for the long term. She's made it clear she doesn't want forever, and I won't settle for anything less. She doesn't deserve another powerful man obsessing over her. There's not a thought in her head I didn't put there, and I won't take advantage of the power I have as her dominant. I've set our rules for a reason: No kissing, no sex, no falling in love. I've only got to make it through my last three months at RMG. And then, somehow, I have to walk away without Lizette Clary. MY FAIR MILLENNIAL 2 is still a romantic comedy slowly building to an HEA over several books. This modern-day Pygmalion is riddled with offensive age-related humor, super-obscure pop culture jokes, and steamy hot eye-sex at inappropriate times.

Far from Heaven, Safe, and Superstar
Author: Todd Haynes
Publisher: Grove/Atlantic, Inc.
ISBN: 1555847773
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 241
Book Description
Three acclaimed screenplays from one of today’s most provocative filmmakers, including the Oscar nominated screenplay Far from Heaven. An award-winning auteur and a pioneer of the New Queer Cinema movement, Todd Haynes has achieved both critical acclaim and box office success with his original, intelligent, and often controversial films. Collected here are three of his most celebrated screenplays. Far from Heaven: Winning fifty critics’ prizes and appearing on two hundred Top Ten lists, Far from Heaven was also nominated for four Academy Awards. Inspired by the films of Douglas Sirk, it tells the story of a 1950s housewife who is alienated by her neighbors when she pursues an affair with her African American gardener after learning of her husband’s homosexuality. Safe: Haynes’s breakthrough feature was voted Best Film of the 1990s by the Village Voice Film Critics Poll. It tells the disturbing story of an affluent suburban housewife whose life is shattered by a mysterious illness. One character suggests that perhaps she is “allergic to the twentieth century.” Superstar: The Karen Carpenter Story: Told with a cast of Barbie dolls, this short film about Karen Carpenter’s battle with anorexia was named one of Entertainment Weekly’s Top 50 Cult Movies in 2003. Though the film was ordered destroyed after a lawsuit by the Carpenter estate, it remains an underground classic and “the most talked-about, least-seen film of the ’80s” (The A.V. Club).

Pages : 156
Book Description
In 1957, when very few Mexican-Americans were familiar with the game of golf, and even less actually played it, a group of young caddies which had been recruited to form the San Felipe High School Golf Team by two men who loved the game, but who had limited access to it, competed against all-white schools for the Texas State High School Golf Championship. Despite having outdated and inferior equipment, no professional lessons or instructions, four young golfers with self-taught swings from the border city of Del Rio, captured the State title. Three of them took the gold, silver and bronze medals for best individual players. This book tells their story from their introduction to the game as caddies to eventually becoming champions.
