Book excerpt: Fifteen years ago Darcy Walker's parents thought it was a good idea to give her a unique name: Darcy, meaning "dark walker." Whether that was a stroke of genius or stroke of stupid, they nailed the irony. She lacks direction, her grades stink, and Heaven help her, she's infatuated with a bad-boy. Things go Mach 1 when she finds a dead body.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a book for dedicated academics who consider spending years masochistically overworked and underappreciated as a laudable goal. They lead the lives of the impoverished, grade the exams of whiny undergrads, and spend lonely nights in the library or laboratory pursuing a transcendent truth that only six or seven people will ever care about. These suffering, unshaven sad sacks are grad students, and their salvation has arrived in this witty look at the low points of grad school. Inside, you’ll find: • advice on maintaining a veneer of productivity in front of your advisor • tips for sleeping upright during boring seminars • a description of how to find which departmental events have the best unguarded free food • how you can convincingly fudge data and feign progress This hilarious guide to surviving and thriving as the lowliest of life-forms—the grad student—will elaborate on all of these issues and more.

Book excerpt: Martin's been diagnosed with ADHD, but he feels something about his diagnosis isn't right. The Ritalin he's prescribed doesn't seem to make a difference. When Martin's grades continue to sink no matter how hard he tries, his father writes him off as lazy and just plain stupid. His dad is convinced that Martin just needs to focus more on his studies and less on making movies. One night while out pursuing his passion on the city streets with his camera, Martin meets Stick and is introduced to the energetic and exciting pastime of parkour -- free-running. While filming Stick's flips and tricks, Martin begins to see a connection between how his brain interprets the world, all jumbled and fast-moving and out of order, and what the free-runners see. Camera in hand, Martin sets out to make a video that will show his dad what he sees, and hopefully get him to understand that Martin's real learning disability, dyslexia, has never been properly diagnosed.

Book excerpt: A murderer thinks it was the perfect kill. A teenage sleuth vows to have the last word. Meet Darcy Walker: Practical joker. Adrenaline junkie. With an allergic reaction to schoolwork. In Darcy’s world, the best parts of the day are lunch, staring at good butts, and when the final bell rings. But everything changes when she discovers a dead body near Valley High. It jumpstarts her inner-sleuth and she vows to catch the murderer. Teaming up with an out of shape jock and the school bad boy to unravel the clues, Darcy soon realizes chasing the sins of a killer can come with a price. Danger spikes the deeper she digs as she uncovers a startling connection between the corpse, a fellow nerd, and a gang infiltrating the school. When a stalker begins to shadow her every move, threatening torture and death if she doesn’t stand down, Darcy has a decision to make: concede defeat or go Mach-1 at the truth and pray she comes out alive. GRADE A STUPID is the first novel in the action-packed Darcy Walker Teenage Sleuth Thrillers. If you enjoy humorous dialogue, twisty plots, and gritty heroines who are verbs in a world full of nouns, then you’ll love this novel where the underdog saves the day.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Government has really screwed things up for the average American. Work has been devalued. Education costs are out of sight. Effort and ambition have never been so scantily rewarded. Political guru James Carville and pollster extraordinaire Stan Greenberg argue that our political parties must admit their failures and the electorate must reclaim its voice, because taking on the wealthy and privileged is not class warfare—it is a matter of survival. Told in the alternating voices of these two top political strategists, It’s the Middle Class, Stupid! provides eye-opening, outspoken, and provocative arguments on where our government has gone wrong and what Americans can do about it before it’s too late.

It marks the beginning of the end for an inseparable trio of friends. Tara's training for a marathon, but also running from her fear of abandonment after being deserted by her father. Whitney Blaire seems to have everything, but an empty mansion and absentee parents leave this beauty to look for meaning in all the wrong places. And Pinkie has a compulsive need to mother everyone to make up for the mom she's never stopped missing. This friendship that promised to last forever is starting to break under the pressure of the girls' differences. And then new-girl Riley arrives in school with her long black hair, athletic body, and her blasé attitude, and suddenly Tara starts to feel things she's never felt before for a girl--and to reassess her feelings about Brent and what he may/may not have done. Is Tara gay--or does she just love Riley? And can her deepest friendships survive when all of the rules have changed?
