Book excerpt: Nicola Harrison's The Show Girl gives a glimpse of the glamorous world of the Ziegfeld Follies, through the eyes of a young midwestern woman who comes to New York City to find her destiny as a Ziegfeld Follies star. "Fans of Elizabeth Gilbert's City of Girls will drink this up." --Booklist It's 1927 when Olive McCormick moves from Minneapolis to New York City determined to become a star in the Ziegfeld Follies. Extremely talented as a singer and dancer, it takes every bit of perseverance to finally make it on stage. And once she does, all the glamour and excitement is everything she imagined and more—even worth all the sacrifices she has had to make along the way. Then she meets Archie Carmichael. Handsome, wealthy—the only man she's ever met who seems to accept her modern ways—her independent nature and passion for success. But once she accepts his proposal of marriage he starts to change his tune, and Olive must decide if she is willing to reveal a devastating secret and sacrifice the life she loves for the man she loves.

Book excerpt: Clint Adams meets Nellie Bly; a journalist in her 20’s working for The New York World while he’s in Denver, Colorado visiting his friend, Talbot Roper. Bly is working in Molly Muldoon’s Dance Hall & Emporium as a showgirl, in order to write a story about the life of dance hall girls in the West. She’s terrible at it, but meeting the Gunsmith is a bonus. The two part as friends, and she returns to New York, where her career takes a new path. Months later, in search of a more serious subject, she has herself committed to an institution to research an exposé on insane asylums. But upon her release she becomes convinced someone is trying to kill her to squash her exposé. When no one believes her, she turns to the only man she can think of who might believe her, and help her. Clint agrees to meet Nellie in St. Louis, where he listens to her story and agrees with her. From that point on he saves her from several attempts on her life, at least two of which come at the hands of clearly insane killers. Clint believes that the people who run the asylum are using their patients to not only kill Nellie, but as hired assassins. He works with Nellie to make sure her exposé is published, and to prevent her, and himself, from being murdered.

Book excerpt: For fans of Tina Fey, Amy Poehler, Amy Schumer—and every other "funny woman"—comes a candid feminist comedy manifesto exploring the sisterhood between women's comedy and women's liberation. “I’m not funny at all. What I am is brave.” —Lucille Ball From female pop culture powerhouses dominating the entertainment landscape to memoirs from today’s most vocal feminist comediennes shooting up the bestseller lists, women in comedy have never been more influential.
