We're all in this together ... : so make some room / by Papa, Tom,author.; Papa, Tom.Essays.Selections.;
"Stand-up is all well and good, but observational humor that's funny and warm may work best in books. And Tom Papa, whose loyal audiences are packed with "date night" couples of all ages, has perfected the form. In We're All In This Together, Papa's thirty-seven short essays tackle these universal American topics, among others: -Love for Your First Car ("To Buy or Lease") -The Truth about Personal Hygiene ("How You Know When It's Time to Go") -Date Nights ("Will You Go Out with Me?") -Unfamiliar Hotel Rooms ("Why Nothing Works") -Pets ("Cats-Ancient Menace") -Drinking ("There's no Cure for a Hangover") -Ducking your Family, even Though you Love Them ("The Lesson of Mark Twain's Cigars") Tom Papa's books make readers laugh, but--crucially--feel better about themselves while doing it."--

When Who Wants to Marry Mr. Darcy, a new reality TV show, starts filming at her best friend Charlene's estate, Phaedra is intrigued. And when the producer asks her to lend her Austenian knowledge as a consultant on the show, she's over the moon. But on the first day of filming, when Charlene's new husband is found electrocuted and Charlene herself is accused of the crime, Phaedra comes crashing back to reality. With murder on the syllabus and her best friend in dire straits, there's no Mr. Darcy around to help Phaedra--she'll have to get to the bottom of this mystery herself.
