Book Description
Games are only fun until the cops get involved. Then, they're exhilarating. Chasity is a self-proclaimed THOT. The Internet is her chessboard and other men's money are the kings she so terribly loves to capture. It was never a big deal, nor was it ever complicated for Chasity. Find lonely men, exchange a couple favors, and walk away a wealthier woman. She never anticipated meeting someone quite like Vinnie, owner of a surprisingly successful construction company. Vinnie played her games like any other man, except the funds never stopped coming. Then, Vinnie offered Chasity the deal of a lifetime: she'd never worry or want for anything ever again in return for one, simple request. Stop being a THOT and commit to only him. Except it wasn't that simple. For the first time in Chasity's life, she had met someone, someone who made her feel things she'd never experienced for a man before: love. She was in love with Torian, a pretty boy from the hood with lots of game. Upon an instantaneous connection, Torian was her match, her mirror self. He was the male version of a THOT, and that felt like home. Chasity did what she does best: she deceived everyone, but things never go according to plan when you're playing with real people. A double homicide later and the Detectives are asking questions. Intriguing facts about Vinnie's not-so-innocent money comes into play. Turns out, the Detectives aren't the most dangerous people asking Chasity questions Vinnie's money. Money that only Chasity knows its whereabouts.

Thot
Author: Chanté Reid
Publisher: Sarabande Books
ISBN: 1946448222
Category : Literary Collections
Languages : en
Pages : 105
Book Description
Thot is a ground-breaking, fast paced, book length essay that experiments with poetry, dialogue, and memoir. At its epicenter are two competing forces. One is Chanté’s upbringing in the splendor, density, rhythms, and madness of Bronx, NY, including the murder of Chante’s neighbor, Deborah Danner, killed by a police officer during his break-in. The other is Reid’s academic life at Brown University, where she is completing a critical thesis on Toni Morrison’s book, Beloved. Its characters—Sethe, Denver, Margeret Garner—wind in and out of the conversation, as do the Medea and Narcissus of Greek myths. Thot is a thrilling cacophony, a highly original mix of genre and voice, sure to please readers in search of something startling and new.

Pages : 321
Book Description
2022 NATIONAL BOOK AWARD FINALIST ONE OF THE LOS ANGELES TIMES' TOP 5 FICTION BOOKS OF THE YEAR ONE OF TIME AND SLATE'S TOP 10 BOOKS OF THE YEAR Named one of the BEST BOOKS OF 2022 by NPR, Vogue, Vulture, BuzzFeed, Harper's Bazaar, and more “One of the buzziest, most human novels of the year…breathless, dizzying, and completely beautiful.” —Vogue “Dazzling and wholly original...[written] with such mordant wit, insight, and specificity, it feels like watching a new literary star being born in real time.” —Entertainment Weekly From a brilliant new voice comes an electrifying novel of a young immigrant building a life for herself—a warm, dazzling, and profound saga of queer love, friendship, work, and precarity in twenty-first century America Graduating into the long maw of an American recession, Sneha is one of the fortunate ones. She’s moved to Milwaukee for an entry-level corporate job that, grueling as it may be, is the key that unlocks every door: she can pick up the tab at dinner with her new friend Tig, get her college buddy Thom hired alongside her, and send money to her parents back in India. She begins dating women—soon developing a burning crush on Marina, a beguiling and beautiful dancer who always seems just out of reach. But before long, trouble arrives. Painful secrets rear their heads; jobs go off the rails; evictions loom. Sneha struggles to be truly close and open with anybody, even as her friendships deepen, even as she throws herself headlong into a dizzying romance with Marina. It’s then that Tig begins to draw up a radical solution to their problems, hoping to save them all. A beautiful and capacious novel rendered in singular, unforgettable prose, All This Could Be Different is a wise, tender, and riveting group portrait of young people forging love and community amidst struggle, and a moving story of one immigrant’s journey to make her home in the world.

This is book 3 of Mark Me Yours. “Don’t- DON'T TOUCH ME!" His frantic voice rang out through the store. Why now? Why did his heat have to come NOW?! Rayan Neel is a mistake of nature, a male omega. Omegas make up less than 5% of the world's population, and only about 1% of them are born male. Omegas in general are looked down upon as the lowest social class, and have only recently, as far as political timelines go, been given rights as citizens. The collar he wears both labels him and keeps him safe, but it doesn't make life easier. He doesn't need any help. He's perfectly capable of supporting himself, in spite of what he is. Sure, there's not much room for luxuries, but it's an okay life. No time for romance. Well, maybe just a little...
