Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I'm your protagonist-Reshma Kapoor-and if you have the free time to read this book, then you're probably nothing like me. Reshma is a college counselor's dream. She's the top-ranked senior at her ultra-competitive Silicon Valley high school, with a spotless academic record and a long roster of extracurriculars. But there are plenty of perfect students in the country, and if Reshma wants to get into Stanford, and into med school after that, she needs the hook to beat them all. What's a habitual over-achiever to do? Land herself a literary agent, of course. Which is exactly what Reshma does after agent Linda Montrose spots an article she wrote for Huffington Post. Linda wants to represent Reshma, and, with her new agent's help scoring a book deal, Reshma knows she'll finally have the key to Stanford. But she's convinced no one would want to read a novel about a study machine like her. To make herself a more relatable protagonist, she must start doing all the regular American girl stuff she normally ignores. For starters, she has to make a friend, then get a boyfriend. And she's already planned the perfect ending: after struggling for three hundred pages with her own perfectionism, Reshma will learn that meaningful relationships can be more important than success-a character arc librarians and critics alike will enjoy. Of course, even with a mastermind like Reshma in charge, things can't always go as planned. And when the valedictorian spot begins to slip from her grasp, she'll have to decide just how far she'll go for that satisfying ending. (Note: It's pretty far.) In this wholly unique, wickedly funny debut novel, Naomi Kanakia consciously uses the rules of storytelling-and then breaks them to pieces.

Book excerpt: Finalist for the 2020 Colorado Book Award in the Literary Fiction category presented by the Colorado Center for the Book Finalist for the 2019 Foreword INDIES Book of the Year Award in the Multicultural (Adult Fiction) category 2020 In the Margins Top Ten and Fiction Recommendation Matthew has grown up in hell. His father is gone, and his mother drinks and hooks up with men who abuse Matthew and his sister. He finally decides to hit the streets of Farmington to get away and to drink himself to death—in his mind, his destiny. He meets Chris, who saves him, takes him home, cleans him up, gets him sober, and initiates Matthew into one of Albuquerque's Native American gangs, the 505s. The 505s have been around for generations. They now sell heroin, and it's their subservience to the Mexican gangs that has allowed them to survive. However, Chris decides that his little Native American gang deserves to be as big as the Mexican gangs in Albuquerque, bringing in new business from deep inside Indigenous communities in Mexico. Then, Matthew falls in love with Chris's girlfriend. Matthew's story is one of terrible darkness, but also, unexpected beauty and tenderness.
Download or read book Enter Here written by Alexis Rhone Fancher and published by Kyso Flash. This book was released on 2017-03-31 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The latest collection of poems by award-winning author and photographer Alexis Rhone Fancher. "Lust, longing, urban noir, and the emotional ravages and physical heat that colliding souls can't help making, are all artfully packed into these lyrical narratives by a poet who refuses to hold back" (Michelle Bitting, poet and author of The Couple Who Fell to Earth). "Mixing heartbreak and hilarity, these poems deliver an emotional wallop with the ease of a woman rolling down her nylons" (Pam Ward, author of Want Some Get Some and Bad Girls Burn Slow). "Alexis Rhone Fancher is not merely a detailed chronicler of our socio-physical interactions--she is by far the most exciting, articulate, and convincing storyteller in contemporary verse" (Gerald Locklin, poet and fiction author of 100+ books). "Any self-styled critic who characterizes Alexis Rhone Fancher's written work as only sexy stanzas would be making an egregious mistake. Far more accurate to portray her poetry as grainy, gritty, noir images by a female version of Henry Miller's bitter observation of the dirty word 'relationships, ' or Georges Bataille's eccentric business of the creative woman at times catering to the psycho-sado fantasies of her lover, or Stephen Schneck's nightmare world of sensual dreams, but with an added dose of infectious humor" (Michael C. Ford, music journalist, playwright, Grammy-nominated spoken-word artist, and Pulitzer Prize-nominated poet). "I write about women like me, women who own their sexuality and take responsibility for their choices. It may seem I'm writing about sex, but really, I'm writing about power. Who has it. How to get it. How to wield it. How to keep it" (from "Featured Fem" Alexis Rhone Fancher, interviewed by The Fem literary magazine, 17 June 2016).

Download or read book You Must Be This Happy to Enter written by Elizabeth Crane and published by Akashic Books. This book was released on 2008-02-01 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Crane seems to be carving out a younger, brassier, less dystopic territory to complement the fiction of George Saunders and David Foster Wallace.” —The Quarterly Conversation In her third short story collection, following When the Messenger is Hot and All This Heavenly Glory, Elizabeth Crane presents a quirky cast of characters all searching for, showing off, or seriously questioning what makes them happy. There’s a woman who speaks in all exclamation points, one enamored by her boyfriend’s closet, a zombie reality TV star, a mother whose baby turns into Ethan Hawke, and a woman whose moods are printed on her forehead. Whether breathlessly enthusiastic, serenely calm, or really concentrating right now on their issues, Elizabeth Crane’s characters shine a spotlight on our spirituality-starved, self-improvement-seeking, celebrity-obsessed culture. “In her third collection of inventive short stories, Crane continues to ingeniously satirize our muddled quest for meaning in all the wrong places.” —Booklist “A well-crafted collection of short stories, one whose clarity of tone and theme unites each and every piece into a cohesive whole. At a time when it seems almost antediluvian to be optimistic, Crane’s sincerity stands as a bewitching reminder that there is more to literature than tragedy.” —Bookslut “Zombies, time travelers, reality TV contestants and even a few normalish folks populate the pages of Elizabeth Crane’s quirky, charming new collection.” —PopMatters
