Pleskit and Tim meet a new alien friend in this ninth book in the hilarious, fast-paced, and accessible sci-fi series Sixth-Grade Alien from the bestselling author of Aliens Ate My Homework, Bruce Coville. Pleskit has always said that he’s not necessarily the first alien to go to school on Earth—just the first one to do it openly. Tim discovers the truth of those words when he meets a two-foot-tall alien, Beebo, who is stranded and desperately wants to get back to his own planet. Unfortunately, Beebo’s presence on Earth could cause a diplomatic disaster. So Pleskit can’t ask his Fatherly One for help. And help is what the boys need, because Beebo can’t resist using his powers to cause chaos in the classroom and havoc at home. Pleskit and Tim have faced plenty of alien menaces. But can they survive an incredibly cute prankster who has a genuine gift for causing the most embarrassing trouble ever?

Book Description
In the small town of Sundown, there are hidden secrets just waiting to be found. And one day, friends Nick, Donnie, Ricky, Joey, Todd and Sean decide theyve been in the dark long enough. Acting on a dare, the friends decide to find out the basis for a story that has circulated throughout the town for generations: that there is a monster living at the top of McMurphys Mountain. Though the boys are not sure they believe in the legend, they are still a bit scared. Soon, the boys come upon an old shack, so they make camp for the night, taking shifts sleeping just in case the monster is lurking about. What they find in the shack is very unexpected and changes a camping trip into a strange adventure. Now, the boys wonder whether they should have ventured up the mountain. But they press forward with their journey, finding more secrets and the truth about the mountain they feared.

Book Description
New York Times bestselling author Jason Pargin’s hilarious and horrifying John Dies at the End series continues with If This Book Exists, You’re in the Wrong Universe. "Pargin once again delights with scathing social commentary thinly disguised as an outrageous action novel...This is a feast."—Publishers Weekly "Within the snarky humor is an incisive commentary on social media and the state of our connected world, and a story about trauma and how people lash out when they’re hurt...This isn’t just a funny tale of inept supernatural investigators; it’s a story of people struggling through pain to find a better path. Pargin offers us a welcome note of hope." — Booklist If the broken neon signs, shuttered storefronts, and sub-standard housing didn’t tip you off, you’ve just wandered into the city of “Undisclosed”. You don’t want to be caught dead here, because odds are you just might find yourself rising from the grave. That hasn’t stopped tourists from visiting to check out the unusual phenomena that hangs around our town like radioactive fallout. Interdimensional parasites feeding on human hosts, paranormal cults worshipping demonic entities, vengeful teenage sorcerers, we’ve got it all. Did I mention the possessed toy? It’s a plastic football-sized egg that’s supposed to hatch an adorable, colorful stuffed bird when a child “feeds” it through a synchronized smartphone app. What’s actually inside is an otherworldly monstrosity that’s enticing impressionable wayward youth into murdering folks and depositing their body parts inside the egg as if it’s a hungry piggy bank to trigger the end of the world. That’s where Dave, John, and Amy come in. They face supernatural threats so the rest of us don’t have to—and sometimes even earn a couple of bucks to so do. But between the bloody ritual sacrifices and soul-crushing nightmares, our trio realizes this apocalypse is way above their pay grade.

Book Description
"The most important book since the Bible." -Jesus "If I didn't read Never Say Never, I would have never tried to suck my own dick." -Joe Rogan "Matthew Perry didn't read Never Say Never and he was killed by Hillary Clinton" -Alex Jones "Never Say Never inspires people to follow their dreams, no matter how completely and utterly stupid they are." -Joey Chestnut Dr. Brandon Day is very good friend of mine and an inspiration to us all, not like that loser Sleepy Joe Biden or Ron Desanctimonious. Dr. Brandon Day is like a white Rosa Parks. If he had a pussy, I would definitely grab it. I would grab that big, fat, beautiful pussy of his. That is how good his new book is. Never Say Never inspired me to run for re-election in 2024, even though everyone knows then 2020 election was rigged. -Donald J. Trump Life coach, influencer, activist, and bestselling author, Brandon Day, teaches us what it takes live his best life as he chronicles his own personal struggles with student loans, bad credit, jerk bosses, teachers, cable companies, neighbors, his parents, chores, being broke, his ex-wife, and even his own children to learn how to live out the classic cliche, "Never Say Never!" -Book Review Journal I always hated being an adult. I resented the idea of being so caught up in grown-up stuff like forgetting to pay my bills, finding socks that matched, and lying about why I was late for work that I lost sight of everything that ever made me happy as a child. I gave up on popping wheelies. I stopped ding-dong ditching, and I didn't even think spitballs or really loud farts were as funny as they used to be. I hadn't drawn a dick on something in years, and I couldn't even remember the last time I threw a party at my parent's house when they weren't home, or when I had sex with a sixteen-year-old girl in the back seat of my mom's car. By my 40th birthday, I was completely broken, and just a shell of that spry boy who left the loudest farts in the 5th grade. Shortly after I graduated college, I needed to find a fucking job and move the hell out so I could start paying my own goddamn bills already. At least that's what my parents were always telling me. What my parents didn’t understand was that I was a Psychology major, and Psychology majors don’t do stuff like get good jobs or move out of their parents’ house. With a shitty college major, and not enough charm or good looks to enter the lucrative world of pharmaceutical sales like my mom and dad wanted me to, it looked like I was destined to smoke pot all day and live with my parents forever. But with a little luck and a fuckload of white privilege, my life is finally on the right track. I healed the damaged relationship with my father, even though he could be a real dick sometimes. I also awakened my inner child. Now I am the same fun-loving, happy-go-lucky child who used to masturbate five times a day and played with matches. I have dental insurance, an amicable divorce, and two kids who aren't in therapy yet. I am even back to drawing dicks on people’s stuff at work again. Let’s just say my life turned out exactly as I planned, and it's all because I never stopped saying never, and you shouldn't either." -Author of Never Say Never, Dr. Brandon Day
