From the Author of "Middle Finger Happiness! (work hard. live well. don't f*ck with me}"! Sharon Lee Zapata brings you It's A New Day, Don't Be A Shit Head Sharon whips out her intellectual smartass kung fu as a hard-working business owner, podcaster, artist, and mom who juggles laundry, house-cleaning, and cheerfully picks up dog sh*t when taking her rescue dogs for a walk... With her hamster-wheel energy, she's been known to create a business on a cocktail napkin after drinking 3 margaritas, write 3 new books to inspire others with her positive, disruptive, slightly irregular strategies on how to stop procrastinating and smack down the bull-shit in your life. "It's a New Day, Don't Be a ShitHead is sprinkled with Sharon's moxie-thoughts and her smarty-pants intellectual sarcasm. She's been known to charm the pants off people... actually, she doesn't want your pants; she wants you to open this book up! Read. Laugh. Learn. Take Action. #RinseAndRepeat It's A New Day, Don't Be A Shit Head, was also influenced by the request of her readers and social media following. So she gathered her collection of home-spun quotes and memes, real talk no bullshit experiences and put them into this little beasty book. It's A New Day, Don't Be A Shit Head, is like using map-quest to guide you through your thick-head of being overwhelmed and #getshitdone. This book can also be used when faced with angry moms in the car-pool lane, f*ck nugget family members, people you meet who are idiots, and other trouble maker shituations [no typo]. Yeah, it's all in here...

NATIONAL BESTSELLER ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR: VOGUE • FORBES • BOOKPAGE • NEW YORK POST • WIRED “I have not been as profoundly moved by a book in years.” —Jodi Picoult Even after she left home for Hollywood, Emmy-nominated TV writer Bess Kalb saved every voicemail her grandmother Bobby Bell ever left her. Bobby was a force—irrepressible, glamorous, unapologetically opinionated. Bobby doted on Bess; Bess adored Bobby. Then, at ninety, Bobby died. But in this debut memoir, Bobby is speaking to Bess once more, in a voice as passionate as it ever was in life. Recounting both family lore and family secrets, Bobby brings us four generations of indomitable women and the men who loved them. There’s Bobby’s mother, who traveled solo from Belarus to America in the 1880s to escape the pogroms, and Bess’s mother, a 1970s rebel who always fought against convention. But it was Bobby and Bess who always had the most powerful bond: Bobby her granddaughter’s fiercest supporter, giving Bess unequivocal love, even if sometimes of the toughest kind. Nobody Will Tell You This But Me marks the creation of a totally new, virtuosic form of memoir: a reconstruction of a beloved grandmother’s words and wisdom to tell her family’s story with equal parts poignancy and hilarity.

WINNER OF THE NEBULA AWARD After a global pandemic makes public gatherings illegal and concerts impossible, except for those willing to break the law for the love of music—and for one chance at human connection. In the Before, when the government didn't prohibit large public gatherings, Luce Cannon was on top of the world. One of her songs had just taken off and she was on her way to becoming a star. Now, in the After, terror attacks and deadly viruses have led the government to ban concerts, and Luce's connection to the world--her music, her purpose—is closed off forever. She does what she has to do: she performs in illegal concerts to a small but passionate community, always evading the law. Rosemary Laws barely remembers the Before times. She spends her days in Hoodspace, helping customers order all of their goods online for drone delivery—no physical contact with humans needed. By lucky chance, she finds a new job and a new calling: discover amazing musicians and bring their concerts to everyone via virtual reality. The only catch is that she'll have to do something she's never done before and go out in public. Find the illegal concerts and bring musicians into the limelight they deserve. But when she sees how the world could actually be, that won’t be enough.
