Book Description
These unofficial fan-created playing cards are a homage to Sex and the City, one of TV's greatest and most enduring shows. Imagine playing a round of Texas Hold 'Em, but when you reveal your hand, there are the iconic smiles of Carrie, Miranda, Charlotte, and Samantha, from TV's Sex and the City! Well, imagine no longer--just pick up your set of Sex and the City Playing Cards. The hit romance-slash-comedy-drama, based on Candace Bushnell's book of the same name, first aired in 1998. Through our lens in 2020, its politics might raise the occasional eyebrow, but 22 years ago, Carrie, Charlotte, Samantha, and Miranda were pushing the envelope. And we still love them for it. This deck of cards is a great gift for superfans of the show. Printed on high-quality card material, this deck is a standard poker set, with the four classic suits. Each suit celebrates a different character. Carrie is diamonds, Charlotte is hearts, Miranda is clubs, and Samantha is spades. Naturally, Stanford Blatch is the joker card.

AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • A REESE'S BOOK CLUB PICK Tired, stressed, and in need of more help from your partner? Imagine running your household (and life!) in a new way... It started with the Sh*t I Do List. Tired of being the “shefault” parent responsible for all aspects of her busy household, Eve Rodsky counted up all the unpaid, invisible work she was doing for her family—and then sent that list to her husband, asking for things to change. His response was...underwhelming. Rodsky realized that simply identifying the issue of unequal labor on the home front wasn't enough: She needed a solution to this universal problem. Her sanity, identity, career, and marriage depended on it. The result is Fair Play: a time- and anxiety-saving system that offers couples a completely new way to divvy up domestic responsibilities. Rodsky interviewed more than five hundred men and women from all walks of life to figure out what the invisible work in a family actually entails and how to get it all done efficiently. With 4 easy-to-follow rules, 100 household tasks, and a series of conversation starters for you and your partner, Fair Play helps you prioritize what's important to your family and who should take the lead on every chore, from laundry to homework to dinner. “Winning” this game means rebalancing your home life, reigniting your relationship with your significant other, and reclaiming your Unicorn Space—the time to develop the skills and passions that keep you interested and interesting. Stop drowning in to-dos and lose some of that invisible workload that's pulling you down. Are you ready to try Fair Play? Let's deal you in.

Finally! The show about nothing gets used for something - as giggle-worthy fodder for your next card night. This unofficial deck of playing cards feature the faces of television's most beloved - the characters of Seinfeld. You might be asking yourself (with that very particular inflection), what's the deal with playing cards? Well, if you must know, they originated in China during the Tang dynasty around the ninth century. Now we use them to play fun games with friends, to gamble away our livelihoods and to confuse young children with illusions. And now, at long last, we have Seinfeld playing cards printed on high quality material. This is a classic deck with 52 standard cards and two jokers. Each of the Seinfeld characters has a suit: Jerry represents diamonds, Elaine is hearts, George is clubs, which leaves Kramer with spades. Naturally, Newman is the joker.
