Book excerpt: A newlywed couple is cursed with an unsexy fate in this “fun, lively read [with] lots of humour and lots of laughs” (The French Village Diaries). Sex isn’t everything. At least, that’s what rock singer Casey and drummer Alex tell themselves when they are strangely unable to consummate their marriage on their wedding night. Or the following night. Or, in fact, any night. They simply can’t do it anymore, and it’s not for lack of trying. Ever more inventive and increasingly desperate when tried-and-tested strategies fail them, Casey and Alex experiment with every trick of the trade, with accessories and other aids—even sex therapy. But it’s as though they’ve been cursed. Will their love and friendship prove strong enough to withstand the trials and tribulations of a sexless marriage? Join Casey and Alex on a wild ride of self-discovery, love, laughter, and tears, where friends old and new produce a twist in the tale that will leave you breathless. “Hysterical . . . A true romantic comedy, and one for your summer reading list!” —Chick Lit Plus

Book excerpt: One wedding. One curse? Disaster ever after... A seven-years-bad-sex curse? Surely not! Yet something went wrong when rock singer Casey and drummer Alex got married on that beautiful yacht anchored off St Tropez in the south of France. Something went badly wrong. For even on their wedding night, the young couple discovers a complete and somewhat surprising inability to make love. Muddling through their honeymoon with a string of thin excuses for their predicament, the lovers defer finding a solution (and panicking) until the return to their home in London. After all, they married for life and to make rock music, not for the love of sex. Right? But when they resume life as normal in London, all hell breaks loose. Increasingly frantic in their quest for release, the unhappy newlyweds embark on a string of hilarious and occasionally harmful antics that drives them, their band, and an assortment of random strangers to the brink of despair. But it ain't over 'til it's over or, in this case... it ain't over 'til the newlyweds sing.

Download or read book The 7 Laws of Magical Thinking written by Matthew Hutson and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2013-02-26 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A provocative and entertaining look at the psychology of superstition and religion, how they make us human—and how we can use them to our advantage What is so special about touching a piano John Lennon once owned? Why do we yell at our laptops? And why do people like to say, “Everything happens for a reason”? Drawing on cognitive science, anthropology, and neuroscience, Matthew Hutson shows us that magical thinking is not only hardwired into our brains—it’s been a factor in our evolutionary success. Magical thinking helps us believe that we have free will and an underlying purpose as it protects us from the paralyzing awareness of our own mortality. Interweaving entertaining stories, personal reflections, and sharp observations, The 7 Laws of Magical Thinking reveals just how this seemingly irrational process informs and improves the lives of even the most hardened skeptics.

Download or read book For You For You I Am Trilling These Songs written by Kathleen Rooney and published by Catapult. This book was released on 2009-12-15 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this collection about life as a twentysomething in the twenty–first century, Kathleen Rooney writes with the finesse of someone well beyond her years, but with fresh insights that reveal a girl still making discoveries at every turn. Varied and original, the tales in For You, For You I Am Trilling These Songs recount the perils of falling in love with the unlikeliest of people, of visiting the New York apartments of a vanished poet, and of touring an animal retirement home with her parents. Of getting a Brazilian wax, and of chauffeuring a U.S. senator around town. Of saying good–bye to a cousin who's joining a convent, and of trying to convince herself that she's not wasting her life. This is a book about love and longing, poetry and plagiarism, death and democracy, mountain floods and Midwestern cicadas. Here is a young woman struggling to find her place as an adult and a citizen in an America that rarely manages to live up to Whitman's dream of it. With this book, Rooney sings—yes, in fact, she trills—loud and clear.
