Book excerpt: What happens on tour in Europe doesn’t stay on tour in Europe. Especially when you’re a rock star’s fake girlfriend. Harper Grey As assistant tour manager for the Tin Gods, I love my job. Especially the delicious eye candy that is their manager, Tyler Worthington. He’s everything I’ve ever wanted in a partner—attractive, polished, and above all, the definition of stable. Too bad he doesn’t see me as anything other than a worker bee. Always helpful, the Tin Gods drummer has a brilliant plan: I should fake date guitarist, Xander Lang, to make Tyler finally see me. WHAT?! Xander Lang Tyler sold his soul to the devil. It’s the only explanation I have for why he approved my ex-girlfriend as our opening act. Our relationship was the definition of toxic. Cue our drummer’s harebrained scheme. And honestly, I’m all in. It’ll keep my ex off my junk and help Harper with drama in her life too. Simple. Only problem is once we start “dating” lines get blurred. Her kisses don’t feel like someone who’s pretending. And when did Harper get so sexy? Now I’m tangled in a clusterf*ck of emotions and confusion. So much for simple.

Download or read book Generation Clusterfu ked written by Daniella Ventresca and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2021-04-29 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A book that’s long past due gives the middle finger to the clusterf*cked culture that has forged and f*cked up an entire generation, warping it away from achieving true happiness and balanced mental health. Daniella Ventresca, Social Worker, Holistic Nutritionist, and Personal Trainer, shows us that the things we’ve fervently put all our faith into—technology, social media, viral influencers, search-engine psychology, entitlement ethic, turn-over trends, etc.—have inadvertently destroyed our ability to sift fact from fiction, fulfillment from fantasy, and mental fitness from totally f*cked up. Obsessively curated social media lives have become a generational lifestyle of curated soul-searching. Drawing from a bevy of psychological and sociological research, Ventresca sheds a disturbing light on how this generation’s culture of comparison pushes us to lock up the truest parts of ourselves that don’t “measure up,” which we come to despise, and so use any means necessary—addiction, binge eating, obsessive behaviours, self-harm, etc.—to control, to suffocate, or to just avoid facing our truths. With a refreshing combination of brutal honesty and I’m-right-there-with-you-babe sisterhood support, Ventresca takes you by the hand on an aha-moment filled journey of relatable stories, cut-through-the-crap truths, and guidance that is too raw to be clickbait-worthy—but is the most authentic way to finally embrace your fears, your faults, and your f*ck-ups. Generation Clusterf*cked is a much-needed slap in the face—and a loving, empowering hug—for a generation that is desperately seeking to find self-forgiveness, self-love, fulfillment, and holistic well-being. Ultimately, this is the only way we can save us from ourselves.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A New York Times bestseller! “Smart and funny…warm and rewarding.” —Booklist (starred review) “A compelling and quirky tale of love and negotiating early adulthood in New York City.” —School Library Journal From the New York Times bestselling author of Emergency Contact, which Rainbow Rowell called “smart and funny,” comes a “captivating” (The New York Times) romance about how social media influences relationships every day. On paper, college dropout Pablo Rind doesn’t have a whole lot going for him. His graveyard shift at a twenty-four-hour deli in Brooklyn is a struggle. Plus, he’s up to his eyeballs in credit card debt. Never mind the state of his student loans. Pop juggernaut Leanna Smart has enough social media followers to populate whole continents. The brand is unstoppable. She graduated from child stardom to become an international icon, and her adult life is a queasy blur of private planes, step-and-repeats, aspirational hotel rooms, and strangers screaming for her just to notice them. When Leanna and Pablo meet at 5:00 a.m. at the bodega in the dead of winter it’s absurd to think they’d be A Thing. But as they discover who they are, who they want to be, and how to defy the deafening expectations of everyone else, Lee and Pab turn to each other. Which, of course, is when things get properly complicated.
