This Will Only Hurt a Little: The New York Times Bestseller (A Bestselling Celebrity Memoir)
by Busy PhilippsA hilarious, heartfelt, and refreshingly honest memoir and New York Times bestseller by the beloved comedic actress known for her roles on Freaks and Geeks, Dawson&’s Creek, and Cougar Town who has become &“the breakout star of Instagram stories...Imagine I Love Lucy mixed with a modern lifestyle guru&” (The New Yorker).There&’s no stopping Busy Philipps. From the time she was two and &“aced out in her nudes&” to explore the neighborhood (as her mom famously described her toddler jailbreak), Busy has always been headstrong, defiant, and determined not to miss out on all the fun. These qualities led her to leave Scottsdale, Arizona, at the age of nineteen to pursue her passion for acting in Hollywood. But much like her painful and painfully funny teenage years, chasing her dreams wasn&’t always easy and sometimes hurt more than a little. In a memoir &“that often reads like a Real World confessional or an open diary&” (Kirkus Reviews), Busy opens up about chafing against a sexist system rife with on-set bullying and body shaming, being there when friends face shattering loss, enduring devastating personal and professional betrayals from those she loved best, and struggling with postpartum anxiety and the challenges of motherhood. But Busy also brings to the page her sly sense of humor and the unshakeable sense that disappointment shouldn&’t stand in her way—even when she&’s knocked down both figuratively and literally (from a knee injury at her seventh-grade dance to a violent encounter on the set of Freaks and Geeks). The rough patches in her life are tempered by times of hilarity and joy: leveraging a flawless impression of Cher from Clueless into her first paid acting gig, helping reinvent a genre with cult classic Freaks and Geeks, becoming fast friends with Dawson&’s Creek castmate Michelle Williams, staging her own surprise wedding, conquering natural childbirth with the help of a Mad Men–themed hallucination, and of course, how her Instagram stories became &“the most addictive thing on the internet right now&” (Cosmopolitan). Busy is the rare entertainer whose impressive arsenal of talents as an actress is equally matched by her storytelling ability, sense of humor, and sharp observations about life, love, and motherhood—&“if you think you know Busy from her Instagram stories, you don&’t know the half of it&” (Jenni Konner). Her conversational writing reminds us what we love about her on screens large and small. From &“candid tales of celebrity life, mom life, and general Busy-ness&” (W Magazine), This Will Only Hurt a Little &“is everything we&’ve been dying to hear about&” (Bustle).

Partir à la dérive à bord du QE2
by Nicholas WalkerÉcrit par un auteur à succès, voici l'histoire hilarante de sa dépression et de sa fuite autour du monde sur le QE2 ! Histoire incroyable mais véridique, l'état mental fragile de l'auteur lui donne une perspective différente sur les voyages et les millionnaires qu'il côtoie. Un livre de voyage vraiment différent qui vous fera rire à chaque page. C'est l'histoire vraie de la guérison d'une dépression nerveuse par une croisière autour du monde à bord du Queen Elizabeth II. C'est un aperçu du style de vie luxueux des très riches, vu du point de vue quelque peu sardonique de quelqu'un qui n'est pas tout à fait sain d'esprit. Nous visitons 40 pays et chacun est traité avec les observations de l'auteur, qui sont presque toujours humoristiques et écrites par quelqu'un dont l'état mental fragile le pousse à jeter toute prudence aux vents. Mais plus encore, Nick n'est pas un voyageur conventionnel : il se fait arrêter à New York et subit une fouille corporelle intime, il repousse trois agresseurs armés en Jamaïque, se dispute avec les douaniers australiens, a un accident de moto à Bali, est attaqué par deux vieillards au Taj Mahal et est expulsé du Vietnam. Cependant, le livre parle surtout de sa vie à bord du QE2 : ses histoires d'amour, sa relation croissante avec le personnel et leur mode de vie intime et cloisonné, le concert désastreux du personnel qui se termine en bagarre générale, les excès des passagers ultra-riches et les situations bizarres qui n'arrivent que dans ce genre d’endroit, comme la nuit où il est piégé sur la piste de danse avec les trois femmes qu'il fréquente. En somme, c'est l'histoire d'un homme retrouvant sa santé mentale jusqu'à ce qu'il soit finalement déposé sur le quai à Southampton où il a commencé, mais cette fois-ci, il est sans le sou et vient d'apprendre que tout ce qu'il possède au monde a été jeté par-dessus bord dans la mer. La suite hilarante est maintenant disponible sur Kindle en ver
