Download or read book Party of One written by Dave Holmes and published by Crown. This book was released on 2017-06-06 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From former MTV VJ Dave Holmes, the hilarious memoir of a perpetual outsider fumbling towards self-acceptance, with the music of the '80s, '90s, and today as his soundtrack Dave Holmes has spent his life on the periphery, nose pressed hopefully against the glass, wanting just one thing: to get inside. Growing up, he was the artsy son in the sporty family. At his all-boys high school and Catholic college, he was the closeted gay kid surrounded by crush-worthy straight guys. And in his twenties, in the middle of a disastrous career in advertising, he accidentally became an MTV VJ overnight when he finished second, naturally, in the Wanna Be a VJ contest, opening the door to fame, fortune, and celebrity—you know, almost. In Party of One, Holmes tells the hilariously painful and painfully hilarious tales—in the vein of Rob Sheffield, Andy Cohen, and Paul Feig—of an outsider desperate to get in, of a misfit constantly changing shape, of a music geek who finally learns to accept himself. Structured around a mix of hits and deep cuts from the last four decades—from Bruce Springsteen's "Hungry Heart" and En Vogue's "Free Your Mind" to LCD Soundsystem’s “Losing My Edge” and Bleachers’ “I Wanna Get Better”—and punctuated with interludes like "So You've Had Your Heart Broken in the 1990s: A Playlist" and “Notes on (Jesse) Camp,” this book is for anyone who's ever felt like a square peg, especially those who have found their place in the world around a band, an album, or a song. It's a laugh-out-loud funny, deeply nostalgic story about never fitting in, never giving up, and letting good music guide the way. – NPR “Best Books of 2016”: Staff Picks, Biography & Memoir, For Music Lovers, Funny Stuff, Non-fiction Categories

Book excerpt: Their one-night stand comes with a big price... Travis Bankard is the quiet, reserved center for the York Bombers. He's known for being soft-spoken and big-hearted, something the rest of the team continuously teases him about—until he takes some playful advice to heart and goes to extremes to rid himself of his reputation. Cara Hudgins has always been the misfit among her small social circle. Quiet and introverted, she's more comfortable around animals than people.

Unfortunately, her one night with the adorably shy hockey player comes with a big price she never saw coming. Afraid and alone, Cara tracks down Travis to give him the news of her pregnancy. She doesn't expect anything from him, especially not a relationship. But beneath his big heart lies a will of steel--and he has no problem changing the rules of the game when it comes to playing for love.

At least…they’re real for me. *** She’s my employee, one of my best friends, my dog Luke’s not-so-secret crush, and totally off-limits.

Zoey isn’t a casual fling kind of girl, and after the way things ended with my ex, I don’t trust my instincts when it comes to love.

Finally, Ruby, who betrayed Ethel years ago and hasn't spoken to her since, hopes this will be her chance to make amends. When the four women learn that a homeless teen has been hiding at camp, they realize camp is something much more immediate for all: survival. And so the three generations of women search for a way to save the place that saved them all, finding in the process a way back to themselves and each other in The Firelight Girls, Kaya McLaren's novel of love and loss, heartbreak and healing.
