One in a millennial: On friendship, feelings, fangirls, and fitting in
Par Kate Kennedy. 2024
This program is read by the author. From pop culture podcaster and a voice of a generation, Kate Kennedy, a…
celebration of the millennial zeitgeist One In a Millennial is an exploration of pop culture, nostalgia, the millennial zeitgeist, and the life lessons learned (for better and for worse) from coming of age as a member of a much-maligned generation. Kate is a pop culture commentator and host of the popular millennial-focused podcast Be There in Five . Part-funny, part-serious, Kate navigates the complicated nature of celebrating and criticizing the culture that shaped her as a woman, while arguing that great depths can come from surface-level interests. With her trademark style and vulnerability, One In a Millennial is sharp, hilarious, and heartwarming all at once. She tackles AOL Instant Messenger, purity culture, American Girl Dolls, going out tops, Spice Girl feminism, her feelings about millennial motherhood, and more. Kate's laugh-out-loud asides and keen observations will have you nodding your head and maybe even tearing up.

Fa Que
Par Patrice Desbiens. 2023
La poésie de Patrice Desbiens arrive à nous comme une offrande dans les mains d'un enfant. Fa que est un…
recueil qui ne fait pas exception aux précédents livres de cet auteur si remarquable et si simple à la fois : dans cette œuvre comme dans les autres, l'écriture aboutie de Desbiens voyage entre la quotidienneté et la lucidité, et ce, toujours avec précision et économie. Malgré son caractère discret, elle se révèle bien rythmée, imagée, parfois même flamboyante. Cette poésie, très sensible, intime, éminemment touchante à lire, tantôt frappe le lecteur de front, tantôt le réconforte. Elle relève à la fois de la spontanéité de la jeunesse et de la sagesse de ceux qui ont presque tout vécu![](https://www.bookshare.org/cover/UZ/UZbhITiy4AFlizkwPmOPQhop3potKl7otL335XbEfnI-SMALL.png)
Jumeau jumelle (Récit)
Par Marisol Drouin. 2023
C'est un livre qui a été repris tant de fois, qui a déjà compté un millier de pages raturées. Et…
si c'était le dernier ? On y entre dans le temps du livre et dans le temps de la maladie : deux pièges monstrueux. Alors qu'une géante rouge grandit au centre du crâne de son frère, l'autrice tente de contenir les éclats de sa pensée. Son miroir jumeau lui renvoie les souvenirs de l'enfance, tout ce qui en elle a désiré que la vie soit magnifiée, sublimée. Elle n'a de cesse de réécrire encore et encore l'expérience de la peur et de la fragilité![](https://www.bookshare.org/cover/UZ/UZbhITiy4AFlizkwPmOPQhop3potKl7otL335XbEfnI-SMALL.png)

au bonheur et à la célébration. Ici, les ombres sont invitées à troubler la parole, avec leurs bagages remplis d'enfances difficiles, de traumatismes sociaux, de violences conjugales et de blessures encore vives qu'il importe de nommer pour valoriser nos expériences singulières, plurielles, complexes![](https://www.bookshare.org/cover/UZ/UZbhITiy4AFlizkwPmOPQhop3potKl7otL335XbEfnI-SMALL.png)

Par Juliette Bélanger-Charpentier. 2023

l'indigne et l'émeut. À travers une série de textes à l'intersection de la poésie et du récit, elle rend un hommage poignant aux creux de vagues, aux accalmies qui s'ensuivent et aux jours heureux qui continuent d'exister à travers les éclaboussures![](https://www.bookshare.org/cover/UZ/UZbhITiy4AFlizkwPmOPQhop3potKl7otL335XbEfnI-SMALL.png)

Uncle of the year: & other debatable triumphs
Par Andrew Rannells. 2023
From the star of The Book of Mormon and Girls, candid, hilarious essays on anxiety, ambition, and the uncertain path…
to adulthood that ask: How will we know when we get there? &“With the unsparing eye of David Sedaris and the social wisdom of Nora Ephron, Andrew Rannells tackles the most foundational questions of growing up.&”—Lena Dunham In Uncle of the Year, Andrew Rannells wonders: If he, now in his forties, has everything he&’s supposed to need to be an adult—a career, property, a well-tailored suit—why does he still feel like an anxious twenty-year-old climbing his way toward solid ground? Is it because he hasn&’t won a Tony, or found a husband, or had a child? And what if he doesn&’t want those things? (A husband and a child, that is. He wants a Tony.) In deeply personal essays drawn from his life as well as his career on Broadway and in Hollywood, Rannells argues that we all pretend—for friends, partners, parents, and others—that we are constantly succeeding in the process known as &“adulting.&” But if this acting is leaving us unfulfilled, then we need new markers of time, new milestones, new expectations of what adulthood is and can be. Along the way, Rannells navigates dating, aging, mental health, bad jobs, and much more. In his essay &“Uncle of the Year,&” he explores the role that children play in his life, as a man who never thought having kids was necessary or even possible—until his siblings have kids and he falls in love with a man with two of his own. In &“Always Sit Next to Mark Ruffalo,&” he reveals the thrills and absurdities of the awards circuit, and the desire to be recognized for one&’s work. And in &“Horses, Not Zebras,&” he shares the piece of wisdom that helped him finally come to terms with his anxiety and perfectionism. Filled with honest insights and a sharp wit, Uncle of the Year challenges us to take a long look at who we&’re pretending to be, who we know we are, and who we want to become![](https://www.bookshare.org/cover/P0/P0VQieU_gW2jxZFTC9aE4MIkdfY-KT7gfXkYCFbmQJA-SMALL.jpg)
Raw dog: The naked truth about hot dogs
Par Jamie Loftus. 2023
One of BookPage 's Best Audiobooks of 2023 "Loftus is a charming narrator...goofy, engaging, and always game to do a…
silly voice." — The New York Times "There's something terribly irresistible about her narration, which is often incredibly funny." — BookPage Part travelogue, part culinary history, all capitalist critique—comedian Jamie Loftus's debut, Raw Dog , will take you on a cross-country road trip in the summer of 2021, and reveal what the creation, culture, and class influence of hot dogs says about America now. "Wise and funny" —ANDY RICHTER "Gonzo yet vulnerable" —GABE DUNN "Hot dog Moby-Dick " —BRANSON REESE "Revealing, funny, sad, horny, and insatiably curious" —SARAH MARSHALL "A wild ride" —ROBERT EVANS "Deeply incisive and hilariously honest" —JACK O'BRIEN Hot dogs. Poor people created them. Rich people found a way to charge fifteen dollars for them. They're high culture, they're low culture, they're sports food, they're kids' food, they're hangover food, and they're deeply American, despite having no basis whatsoever in America's Indigenous traditions. You can love them, you can hate them, but you can't avoid the great American hot dog. Raw Dog: The Naked Truth About Hot Dogs is part investigation into the cultural and culinary significance of hot dogs and part travelog documenting a cross-country road trip researching them as they're served today. From avocado and spice in the West to ass-shattering chili in the East to an entire salad on a slice of meat in Chicago, Loftus, her pets, and her ex eat their way across the country during the strange summer of 2021. It's a brief window into the year between waves of a plague that the American government has the resources to temper, but not the interest. So grab a dog, lay out your picnic blanket, and dig into the delicious and inevitable product of centuries of violence, poverty, and ambition, now rolling around at your local 7-Eleven. "One of the freshest and most insightful new comedic voices of this decade." —LINDSAY ELLIS A Macmillan Audio production from Forge Books![](https://www.bookshare.org/cover/UZ/UZbhITiy4AFlizkwPmOPQhop3potKl7otL335XbEfnI-SMALL.png)
Adieu les crevettes
Par Charlotte Francœur. 2023
À l'intérieur d'une petite boîte, trois avortons, trois disparues fantasmées, surnommées crevettes, vivotent. Non-mère de cette non-vie, la narratrice choisit…
le vide du ventre afin d'échapper au destin tragique de celles qui l'ont précédée. Car au bal des absentes, la mort rôde inlassablement. Recueil de deuil, de colère et de compassion, Adieu les crevettes est une reprise de pouvoir sur les rouages filiaux qui enchaînent, une ode à l'amour maternel et à la liberté de choix![](https://www.bookshare.org/cover/xt/xt7Ow9169KvlM_tnmIC_-P9SN5VEitP159nQ-UWA1U4-SMALL.jpg)
Soul boom: Why we need a spiritual revolution
Par Rainn Wilson. 2023
In this New York Times bestseller, comedic actor, producer, and writer Rainn Wilson explores the problem-solving benefits that spirituality gives…
us to create solutions for an increasingly challenging world. The trauma that our world experienced in recent years—as result of both the pandemic and societal tensions that threaten to overwhelm us—has been unprecedented and is not going away anytime soon. It is clear that existing political and economic systems are not enough to bring the change that the world needs. In this book, Rainn Wilson explores the possibility and hope for a spiritual revolution, a "Soul Boom" in order to address today's greatest issues—mental health, racism and sexism, climate change, and economic injustice. For Wilson, this is very serious and essential pursuit, but he brings great humor and his own unique perspective to the conversation. He feels that, culturally, we've thrown the baby out with the bathwater—and that bathwater is spirituality, Faith and the Sacred. The baby is us, and we are in need of profound healing and a unifying understanding of the world that religion provides. Sharing his experience of losing his father during the summer of 2020 as well as his personal struggles with addiction and mental health, Wilson is an empathetic narrator and thinker who readers will appreciate and trust. Wilson's approach to spirituality—the non-physical, eternal aspects of ourselves—is relatable and will apply to people of all beliefs, even the skeptics. Filled with genuine insight—not to mention enlightening Kung Fu and Star Trek references—the book offers the keys to delving into ancient wisdom and seeking out practical, transformative answers to life's biggest questions![](https://www.bookshare.org/cover/Gl/Gl6IRUD9dqzo6HgR0VnPeQu3u_SYfnERTIaCU4wHpF4-SMALL.jpg)
The takeover
Par Cara Tanamachi. 2024
On Nami's thirtieth birthday, she's reminded at every turn that her life isn't what she'd planned. She's always excelled at…
everything—until now. Her fiancé blew up their engagement. Her pride and joy, the tech company she helped to found, is about to lose funding. And her sister, Sora, is getting married to the man of her dreams, Jack—and instead of being happy for her, as Nami knows she ought to be, she's fighting off jealousy. Frustrated with her life, she makes a wish on a birthday candle to find her soulmate. Instead the universe delivers her hate mate, Nami's old nemesis, Jae Lee, the most popular kid from her high school, who also narrowly beat her out for valedictorian. More than a decade later, Jae is still as effortlessly cool, charming, and stylish as ever, and, to make matters worse, he's planning a hostile takeover of her start-up. Cue sharp elbows and even sharper banter as the two go head-to-head to see who'll win this time. But when their rivalry ignites a different kind of passion, Nami starts to realize it's not just her company that's in danger of being taken over, but her heart as well![](https://www.bookshare.org/cover/UZ/UZbhITiy4AFlizkwPmOPQhop3potKl7otL335XbEfnI-SMALL.png)
Soft Inheritance
Par Fawn Parker. 2023
In her exceptional poetic debut, Fawn Parker meditates on grief, illness, and the open-handed relationship between material objects and memory.…
Written after her mother was diagnosed with cancer, Soft Inheritance follows the poet's rapidly evolving reality where "kindness is a scar," though "not all scar-makers are kind. ,"" Both a treatise on the sick body and the state of ""after"-post-caretaking, post-breakup, post-moving, and post-death-these poems question what is inherited, and ask what can safely be left behind. A diamond ring? A cancerous gene? Soft Inheritance is a finely crafted love letter to the people and places that imprint on a life.![](https://www.bookshare.org/cover/UZ/UZbhITiy4AFlizkwPmOPQhop3potKl7otL335XbEfnI-SMALL.png)
Shadow Blight
Par Annick MacAskill. 2022
Shadow Blight considers the pain and isolation of pregnancy loss through the lens of classical myth. Drawing on the stories…
of Niobe-whose monumental suffering at the loss of her children literally turned her to stone-and others, this collection explores the experience of being swept away by grief and silenced by the world. Skirting the tropes (“o how beautiful / the poets make our catastrophes”), MacAskill interweaves the ancient with the contemporary in a way that opens possibilities and offers a new language for those “shut up in stillness.”![](https://www.bookshare.org/cover/UZ/UZbhITiy4AFlizkwPmOPQhop3potKl7otL335XbEfnI-SMALL.png)

Bottom Rail on Top
Par D. M. Bradford. 2023
A rolling call and response between antebellum Black history and the present that mediates it. Somewhere in the cut between…
Harriet Jacobs and surveillance, Southampton and sneaker game, Lake Providence and the supply chain, Bottom Rail on Top sets off a mediation between the complications of legacy and selfhood. In a kind of archives-powered unmooring of the linear progress story, award-winning poet D.M. Bradford fragments and recomposes American histories of antebellum Black life and emancipation, and stages the action in tandem with the matter of his own life. Amidst echoes and complicities, roots and flights, lineage and mastery, it's a story of stories told in knots and asides, held together with paper trails, curiosities, and hooks — a study that doesn't end.
