Disappointing Affirmations Bok
<b>From the wildly popular Instagram account, <i>Disappointing Affirmations</i> hilariously counters the culture of relentless toxic positivity with a realistic take on a disappointing world where failure is always an option, but that's okay.</b><br/><br/>Pairing lovely vacation photos taken by the author himself with sayings that are amusingly self-critical, encouraging, disillusioned, or all three at once, Tarnowski points to feelings commonly unacknowledged or hidden and spotlights them with humor, wit, and empathy. <i>You can do it! But you probably won't.</i> But also: <i>Be kind to yourself, asshole.</i> Transforming and re-envisioning the material for print while adding tons of new work, this is the funny-because-it's-true, sneaky self-help gift book for anyone who isn't happy all the time and doesn't feel seen in the whole positive mental attitude" culture. <i>Unfollow your dreams!</i><br/><br/>IT REALLY IS OKAY TO NOT BE OKAY: People say, "It's okay to not be okay," but then it feels like they need you to be okay. This subversively funny book is the perfect way to remind ourselves, or anyone who needs it, that it's better to deal with our feelings honestly than fall into the "positive vibes only" self-help trap.<br/><br/>COMEDY FOR A NEW ERA: Wellness has been slowly taking a darker turn in popular culture, and comedy is no exception. From <i>Inside</i> by Bo Burnham to the absurdity of TV giant <i>Succession</i>, audiences are drawn to media that embraces discomfort rather than drowning it out. <i>Disappointing Affirmations</i> may not look very comforting, but not all self-care comes in the form of warm hugs and sunrise yoga.<br/><br/>FOR HUMOR BOOK FANS: Seeking a gift for the anti-optimist in your life? This one fits the bill for fans of satirical doom classics and self-help antidotes such as <i>All My Friends Are Dead</i>, <i>Am I Overthinking This?</i>, the Worst Case Scenario series, and <i>The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck</i> .<br/><br/>THERE'S MORE: See also the <i>Disappointing Affirmations</i><i>Pencils</i> and <i> Disappointing Affirmations: 30 Postcards</i> set. You won't be disappointed.<br/><br/>Perfect for:- College grads, people entering the workforce, people who wish they hadn't entered the workforce - Fans of the @disappointingaffirmations Instagram account - Anyone who isn't always cheerful and doesn't feel seen - Fans of satire and sarcastic humor - Anyone feeling burnout, empathy fatigue, positivity fatigue, or fatigue in general

Heaven Official's Blessing- Tian Guan Ci Fu (novel) Vol. 2 Bok
The blockbuster danmei/Boys' Love novels from China that inspired the animated series! This epic historical fantasy about a prince and the mysterious man by his side is now in English, for the very first time. Born the crown prince of a prosperous kingdom, Xie Lian was renowned for his beauty, strength, and purity. His years of dedication and noble deeds allowed him to ascend to godhood. But those who rise, can also fall...and fall he does, cast from the Heavens again and again and banished to the mortal realm. Eight hundred years after his mortal life, Xie Lian has ascended to godhood for the third time. Now only a lowly scrap collector, he is dispatched to wander the earthly realm to take on tasks appointed by the heavens to pay back debts and maintain his divinity. Aided by old friends and foes alike, and graced with the company of a mysterious young man with whom he feels an instant connection, Xie Lian must confront the horrors of his past in order to dispel the curse of his present. This Chinese xianxia fantasy novel series built around the romanticized love between two men (danmei) is the newest work from author Mo Xiang Tong Xiu, and has spawned an ongoing multimedia franchise that's beloved across the world--including the animated series (donghua) that amassed 100+ million views in just its first month. The Seven Seas English-language edition will include covers from (tai3_3), and exclusive, all-new interior illustrations from ZeldaCW.

Comedians In Cars Getting Coffee Bok
<p><br/></p><p>A celebration of and behind-the-scenes look at Jerry Seinfeld's groundbreaking streaming series Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee. Over eleven seasons and eighty-four episodes, Jerry Seinfeld drove around in classic cars, grabbing coffee and chatting with the funniest people alive. He reminisced with the late Garry Shandling; bantered with legends Steve Martin, Tina Fey, and Eddie Murphy; reunited with the cast of Seinfeld; and even paid a visit to President Barack Obama in the Oval Office.</p><p>These and dozens of other guests talked about the intricacies of stand-up, the evolution of their careers and personal lives, and whatever else popped into their brilliant minds. The result was not only a hilarious collection of casual yet intimate conversations - a rare opportunity for viewers to witness their favourite performers unscripted and unvarnished - but arguably the most important historical archive about the art of comedy ever amassed. Now that archive is preserved in the form of a gorgeously designed and carefully curated book.</p><p>Seinfeld has hand-picked the show's keenest insights and funniest exchanges. Also included is a fascinating oral history featuring interviews with dozens of crew members, executives, guests, and Seinfeld himself that details how this scrappy creative experiment landed unprecedented access to the White House, earned multiple Emmy nominations, and helped lead the streaming revolution. Featuring a newly written introduction by Seinfeld and filled with beautiful never-before-seen production photos, this book is essential reading for comedy lovers, car aficionados, coffee connoisseurs, and Jerry Seinfeld fans.</p>

The God Desire Bok
<p> <strong>From the bestselling author of Jews Don't Count</strong> </p> <p>' A hugely heartfelt, funny, kind, fascinating, human and clever book ' <strong>ALAIN DE BOTTON</strong><br/>' Magnificent. Breathtaking. And shockingly rare ... another one-sitting wonder' <strong>STEPHEN FRY</strong></p> <p>David Baddiel would love there to be a God. He has spent a lot of time fantasising about how much better life would be if there actually was such a thing as a Superhero Dad who chased off Death. Unfortunately for him, there isn't. Or at least, that is Baddiel's view in this book, which argues that it is indeed the very intensity of his, and everyone else's, desire for God to exist that proves His non-existence. Anything so deeply wished-for we will, considers Baddiel, make real. The admission of his own divine yearnings makes for a book that is more vulnerable - and more understanding of the value and power of religion - than most atheist polemics. A philosophical essay that utilises Baddiel's trademarks of comedy, storytelling and personal asides, The God Desire offers a highly readable new perspective on the most ancient of debates.</p>

Remainders Of The Day Bok
The Bookshop in Wigtown is a bookworm's idyll - with thousands of books across nearly a mile of shelves, a real log fire, and Captain, the bookshop cat. You'd think after twenty years, owner Shaun Bythell would be used to the customers by now. Don't get him wrong - there are some good ones among the antiquarian porn-hunters, die-hard Arthurians, people who confuse bookshops for libraries and the toddlers just looking for a nice cosy corner in which to wee. He's sure there are. There must be some good ones, right? Filled with the pernickety warmth and humour that has touched readers around the world, stuffed with literary treasures, hidden gems and incunabula, Remainders of the Day is Shaun Bythell's latest entry in his bestselling diary series.

Sweden For Beginners Bok
<p>Informativt och roligt om det som kännetecknar oss svenskar - på engelska! Hur är vi när det gäller punktlighet, köande, vädret och konflikter? Gunnar Jägberg skriver med glimten i ögat om vitt skilda områden: traditioner, mat och dryck, uttryck och ordspråk, nya ord, oskrivna regler, det svenska lynnet ... </p><p>Läs om sådant som utgör gamla och nya traditioner: Nobelpriset, Fredagsmys, Fika och Surströmming. Och om sådant som kännetecknar svenskar. (Du vet att du är svensk när du tycker att danskar är kontinentala.)</p><p>Läs vidare om svenska grundbultar som knäckebröd, kaviar, jämställdhet, studiecirklar, konflikträdsla, svårmod, körsång och delad nota på restaurang. Om om hur svenska föräldrar är mästare på att curla sina barn och om VAB, den svenska föräldrarförsäkringen som är så unik att människor i andra länder tror att det är ett skämt när de förstår hur den fungerar.</p><p>En liten språklektion ingår som förklarar idiomatiska bilduttryck som inte kan översättas bokstavligt: ge igen för gammal ost, ana ugglor i mossen, göra en pudel, ha en räv bakom örat...</p><p>Gunnar Jägberg går också igenom alla dessa oskrivna regler som kan vara nyttiga att kunna kring sådant som köande, punktlighet, jantelagen.</p><p>En fin och användbar gåva till turister, utlandsvänner och engelsktalande i Sverige som vill veta hur svenskar tänker och samtidigt få ett leende på läpparna. Och kanske lära sig lite svenska. </p><p></p><p>IN ENGLISH:</p><p>Informative and witty insights into what characterizes the Swedes in English! </p><p>How do we behave when it comes to punctuality, standing in line, the weather and conflicts? Gunnar Jägberg writes about topics such as traditions, food and drink, colloquial expressions and proverbs, unwritten rules, the Swedish temperament, all in a satirical vein . . . </p><p>Read about what makes up old and new Swedish traditions like the Nobel Prize, the Friday ritual called Fredagsmys, coffee breaks or fika and fermented herring known as Surströmming. And find out what characterizes us as Swedes. (For example: You know that you are Swedish when you think that Danes are continental.) </p><p>Learn more about basic Swedish concepts such as hard bread (knäckebröd), caviar, equal opportunity (jämställhet), study circles (studiecirklar), fear of conflicts (konflikträdsla), Swedish melancholy (svårmod), choir singing (körsång) and sharing the restaurant bill (delad nota). Find out why Swedish parents are masters at curling their children, and learn about the parental benefits for sick children in Sweden called VAB which people from other countries think is a joke when they understand how it works. </p><p>A brief language lesson is included which explains some idiomatic expressions that cannot be translated literally, for example giving back for old cheese, suspecting owls in the bog, making a poodle, having a fox behind your ear . . . </p><p>Gunnar Jägberg also covers all of the unwritten rules which are important to know about standing in line, punctuality and the Jante Law. </p><p>A wonderfully useful book for tourists, foreign friends and for English speakers in Sweden who want to know how Swedes think while having a smile and maybe even learning a little Swedish. </p><p>GUNNAR JÄGBERG has written several books. <br/></p>
