Rick Mercer Final Report
by Rick MercerCanada's pre-eminent satirical commentator brings down the curtain on his hugely successful show.Rick Mercer can always be relied on to provoke a strong reaction--but what he said one fall day in 2017 truly shocked the nation. In a rant posted on social media, the great Canadian satirist announced loud and clear that the current, 15th season of the Rick Mercer Report--the nation's best-watched and best-loved comedy show--would be the last. After more than 250 episodes, 250 rants and countless miles spent travelling the length and breadth of Canada to do everything from bungee jumping with Rick Hansen to whale watching with Measha Brueggergosman, it was time to move on. What he will do next is still unknown, and Canada eagerly awaits future developments. But meanwhile, we have this book to keep us going.This volume brings together never-before-published rants from the last five seasons of the show, plus a selection of the very best rants from earlier years. And throughout the book, in a series of brilliant new essays, Rick shares his hilarious, moving and at times hair-raising memories from the past fifteen years. Remember when he and Jann Arden travelled by helicopter to a terrifying bat cave in a mountain? No--because that trip went so horribly wrong it never made it to the screen. Pierre Berton--what was really in that joint he rolled? (It wasn't oregano.) What catastrophe took place in Norman Jewison's bathroom? And can the show still go on when your director in charge is delirious from an allergic reaction? (Yes.) All this and more is revealed by Rick in some of his sharpest and funniest writing yet.

There's loads of advice (mostly learned the hard way), and some family hunting photos too. Rick and Bubba's Big Honkin' Book of Huntin' will help you tell the difference between road kill and a trophy buck (most trophy bucks do not have tire marks). It will help you pass the time in a hunting house while you're waiting for that prize buck (do your taxes maybe).

So whether you hunt deer, wild turkeys, quail, or just shoot at whatever's movin' in the bushes, Rick and Bubba's Big Honkin' Book of Huntin' is for you. Get ready, aim . . . laugh!

Ricky's Hand
by David QuantickFrom the Emmy Award-winning writer of Avenue 5, Veep and The Thick of It comes a funny, violent and thought-provoking horror story like nothing you&’ve seen before.Ricky Smart is a nobody, a Miami Beach paparazzo who scrapes a living snapping celebs. One day Ricky wakes up and realises there&’s something wrong with his hand. It&’s not his hand. In fact, it&’s someone else&’s hand. How does he know it&’s not his? Because it looks different, feels different and – perhaps the biggest clue – has a four-letter word tattooed across the knuckles. But hey, it's still a hand, and it works just fine, so that's ok. Except a week later, his other hand changes. And a few days after that, Ricky gets a new arm… Ricky is losing his mind as well as his body parts, but he has to pay rent and those seedy photos aren't going to take themselves. The world needs candid shots of pop sensation and local girl Scala Jaq, almost as much as Ricky's bank account does. Yet Scala has a secret of her own, a secret that leads them to an unlikely partnership, the strangest support group ever, and revelations that threaten existence as they know it. It's up to the celebrity and her tormentor to work out what to do with a world of misfits, explosions, and other people's bad tattoos. Because when you've looked for redemption in all the right places, you might need to try the wrong ones.
Ricordi quando... 2
by T. Torrest“Avete presente quando la vostra cotta del liceo da grande diventa una star del cinema super famosa? Ok, voi forse no, ma io sì.” ~Layla Warren Al liceo, la fanbase di Trip Wiley comprendeva solo gli abitanti del piccolo sobborgo di Norman, nel New Jersey. Dieci anni dopo, tutto questo sta per cambiare. Nell'estate del 2000, Layla Warren si gode la sua carriera di giornalista a New York (be’, più o meno), mentre Trip passa la maggior parte del suo tempo a tenere in pugno Hollywood. Nei giorni che precedono quello che per lui si rivelerà una successo trionfale, si troveranno di fronte a scelte che cambieranno la loro vita. . Ricordi quando... 2 è il secondo libro di una trilogia romantica New Adult. Vi riporterà indietro a quel periodo esuberante e tumultuoso della vita che sono i vent'anni, quando si fa fatica a capire quale sia il proprio posto nel mondo, la persona che si deve essere...e la persona con cui si è destinati stare.
Ricordi quando... 3: Il finale
by T. Torrest"Avevo trascorso troppo tempo nel limbo. Era il momento di rimettere in atto il Piano California.” ~Layla Warren Sono innamorata di Trip Wiley da quando avevo sedici anni Già. Quel Trip Wiley. Attore da Premio Oscar, noto filantropo, secondo People l’Uomo più sexy del mondo per due anni di seguito… Esatto. Non sono una fan ossessionata e delirante. Si dà il caso che fosse il mio ragazzo al liceo, nel 1991. Negli anni successivi, è semplicemente diventato Quello che è andato via. Sembra proprio che non siamo riusciti a raggiungere la stessa lunghezza d’onda allo stesso tempo. Il nostro tempismo forse ha fatto schifo, ma i sentimenti erano già stati confermati. Anni fa. O almeno i suoi. Non sa che avevo scelto di ricambiare il suo amore. Devo mettere a posto le cose. E devo farlo adesso. Ricordi quando... 3 è il terzo e ultimo libro della Trilogia Ricordi. È una storia che parla di cogliere le opportunità e seguire il proprio cuore… Consapevoli che a volte, si deve solo imparare a mollare la presa. **Rivolto a un pubblico maggiorenne a causa del linguaggio spinto e di scene di sesso esplicito.**
Ricostruire l'amore: Il libro della famiglia Bennett, secondo volume (La famiglia Bennett, Vol. 2 #1)
by Amylynn BrightCinque anni fa, la vorticosa storia d'amore di Lee Bennett con Candace Claesson si interruppe bruscamente, allo stesso modo in cui era iniziata, e proprio quando lui aveva più bisogno di lei. Da quel momento, Lee ha messo su un'impresa edile di successo e col duro la voro si è costruito una vita piena di soddisfazioni, benché solitaria. Quando viene assunto per costruire la nuova clinica veterinaria di Candace, Lee la trova irresistibile come sempre, ma non l'ha mai perdonata e non ha nessuna intenzione di permetterle di spezzargli di nuovo il cuore. Per anni, Candace ha lottato con il rimpianto e il senso di colpa per aver lasciato Lee. A quel tempo, nulla le avrebbe impedito di realizzare il suo sogno di studiare in Scozia e diventare una veterinaria, nemmeno se si fosse innamorata. Erano stati inseparabili per sei mesi, ma una storia così intensa non poteva durare. O almeno così pensava. Ritrovatisi nella loro città natale, né Lee né Candace resistono alla tentazione di riprendere il discorso da dove l'avevano lasciato. Ma con tanti ricordi del passato che si frappongono tra loro, come riusciranno a ricostruire ciò che hanno iniziato tanto tempo fa?
