Download or read book Kiss Me Someone Stories written by Karen Shepard and published by Tin House Books. This book was released on 2017-09-12 with total page 139 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A New York Times Book Review Editors' Choice A Best Book of Fall at The Washington Post, BuzzFeed, BUST, and more "Dark yet sensitive explorations of family and love—of all kinds—from a masterful writer. The women at the centers of these stories are sharp-edged and complicated and irresistible; you won’t be able to look away." —Celeste Ng Bold and unapologetic, Karen Shepard’s Kiss Me Someone is inhabited by women who walk the line between various states: adolescence and adulthood, stability and uncertainty, selfishness and compassion. They navigate the obstacles that come with mixed-race identity and instabilities in social class, and they use their liminal positions to leverage power. They employ rage and tenderness and logic and sex, but for all of their rationality they're drawn to self-destructive behavior. Shepard’s stories explore what we do to lessen our burdens of sadness and isolation; her characters, fiercely true to themselves, are caught between their desire to move beyond their isolation and a fear that it’s exactly where they belong.

Download or read book Olive Mabel Me Life and Adventures with Two Very Good Dogs written by Andrew Cotter and published by The Countryman Press. This book was released on 2020-12-01 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story of Olive and Mabel, Labrador retrievers who rose to internet fame as the subjects of Andrew Cotter's BBC sports parodies. When sporting events were put on hold in March 2020, commentator Andrew Cotter shifted to working from home. The one-on-one competitors? His two Labrador retrievers, Olive and Mabel. In the hilarious videos that ensued, the dogs engage in various contests, from bone-snatching and breakfast-eating to crushing it on the dog walk, while Cotter narrates to hilarious effect. The scene of Mabel, simply standing still in a fetid pond was one of the most popular. Why? Because this is how dogs live, and Cotter captured it with humor and joy. It’s why the series has been viewed more than 50 million times, entertaining dog owners, sports fans and celebrities around the world. Olive and Mabel are more than online celebrities, however, as revealed in this charming narrative. Filled with stories about how Cotter fell in love with his dogs, his passion for hiking with them through the glens and over the peaks of his native Scotland, and the ongoing relationship between Olive and Mabel (particularly the “competitive fire” lit during these days of quarantine), the memoir is by turns side-splittingly funny and thoughtfully tender. It’s sure to resonate with all dog lovers.

Read the full story to know more.. ‐------------------------------------- “Oh baby! You have no idea how badly I want to take you up in my room and devore your beautiful body?” My hands stopped wiping the floor and my head instantly snapped up to my mate, whose face is now buried in that girl’s neck. Their bodies were too close to my comfort. What did he just say? Did he just offer her to have s*x? Can’t he see me standing here? Am I that invisible to him that he is offering another girl to sleep with him right in front of me? I felt a part of my heart breaking at his words. I know I insisted him to not get physical with me until we make our relationship official, but it doesn’t mean he is allowed to do that with someone else. I am still his mate no matter what position our relationship is in. I can see their actions moving towards the direction of the bedroom and I have to stop them before they cross their limits. But how? Suddenly, an idea came into my head. I know this is going to earn me some harsh punishment, but at least I will keep my mate out of that girl’s body this way. With this thought, I picked up the bucket filled with dirty water and pretended to slip right in front of them, pouring all the water right on top of that girl’s head. “What the f*ck? You bi*ch. What did you do? Ewe.. This is no nasty. I have to take a shower right now. I’m leaving. But I will see you later for this.” My plan was a success. She ran out of there as fast as she can to clean herself and there was finally a satisfied smile on my face in joy. “Mila? Why did you do that? I know you did that on purpose.” My smile vanished when I hear Ralph’s angry voice for me. “I have something important to discuss with you. Please meet me at the garden tonight. I will be waiting.” Saying this, I started cleaning the excess water of the floor by myself. I wanted to talk to him right now, but we can’t afford to get caught. So I offered him to meet me later. He didn’t say anything further and went to his room angrily. Oh goddess. Why did I get such a mate who doesn’t understand me?
