Book Synopsis The Unfortunate Decisions of Dahlia Moss by : Max Wirestone
Download or read book The Unfortunate Decisions of Dahlia Moss written by Max Wirestone and published by Redhook. This book was released on 2015-10-20 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Veronica Mars meets the World of Warcraft in The Unfortunate Decisions of Dahlia Moss, a mystery romp with a most unexpected heroine. If it were up to me this book would be called Hilarious Things That Happened That Were Not At All Dahlia's Fault -- or HTTHTWNAADF, for short. OK, I probably shouldn't have taken money from a mysterious eccentric to solve a theft, given that I'm not a detective, and that I am sometimes outwitted by puzzles in children's video games. I probably shouldn't have stolen bags of trash from a potential murder suspect. Arguably -- just arguably, mind you -- it may have been unwise to cos-play at an event where I was likely to be shot at. But sometimes you just have to take some chances, right? And maybe things do get a little unfortunate. What of it? If you ask me, an unfortunate decision here or there can change your life. In a positive way, just so long you don't killed in the process. Admittedly, that's the tricky bit.

Book Synopsis Hyperbole and a Half by : Allie Brosh
Download or read book Hyperbole and a Half written by Allie Brosh and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2013-10-29 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: #1 New York Times Bestseller “Funny and smart as hell” (Bill Gates), Allie Brosh’s Hyperbole and a Half showcases her unique voice, leaping wit, and her ability to capture complex emotions with deceptively simple illustrations. FROM THE PUBLISHER: Every time Allie Brosh posts something new on her hugely popular blog Hyperbole and a Half the internet rejoices. This full-color, beautifully illustrated edition features more than fifty percent new content, with ten never-before-seen essays and one wholly revised and expanded piece as well as classics from the website like, “The God of Cake,” “Dogs Don’t Understand Basic Concepts Like Moving,” and her astonishing, “Adventures in Depression,” and “Depression Part Two,” which have been hailed as some of the most insightful meditations on the disease ever written. Brosh’s debut marks the launch of a major new American humorist who will surely make even the biggest scrooge or snob laugh. We dare you not to. FROM THE AUTHOR: This is a book I wrote. Because I wrote it, I had to figure out what to put on the back cover to explain what it is. I tried to write a long, third-person summary that would imply how great the book is and also sound vaguely authoritative—like maybe someone who isn’t me wrote it—but I soon discovered that I’m not sneaky enough to pull it off convincingly. So I decided to just make a list of things that are in the book: Pictures Words Stories about things that happened to me Stories about things that happened to other people because of me Eight billion dollars* Stories about dogs The secret to eternal happiness* *These are lies. Perhaps I have underestimated my sneakiness!

Download or read book A Most Unfortunate Woman written by Bruce Pippett and published by BookPOD. This book was released on 2021-06-11 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A tale of our world and of the afterlife, told to George by Chloe, his deceased daughter. George tells his friend Charles of a strange incident. He says his daughter comes to speak to him while he is asleep. Immediately after she stops speaking, he wakes up and rushes to his computer to type out what she has told him. Chloe relates to George her experiences from the moment of her death, her conversation with a mysterious gatekeeper of the afterlife, and her extensive conversations with other spirits she has come into contact with. James is a Dubliner who died from alcoholism, estranged from his family; Jessie is a model who got caught up in drugs and eventually prostitution; Craig is an effervescent American real estate agent whose life revolved around making money; April married for money and found that after their baby was born and her husband was promoted at work he had no time for them; and Clarissa, who knew well in advance that she was going to die from skin cancer. Throughout the telling of his daughter’s story, George intermittently pauses and questions Charles as to his thoughts on various aspects of the story. Charles is a corporate man and the philosophical arguments and the pure unbelievable nature and emotion of the story leave him virtually speechless. At first George confides only in Charles. But when their wives become suspicious of the men’s activities on the occasions he read his notes out to Charles, George has no choice but to agree to Charles telling them their secret. George is confused as to what he should do with his notes. He finally decides to enlist Charles’s help to reveal to the world the ‘secret’ of his daughter’s story.
