The scandalous confessions of Lydia Bennet, Witch / by Taub, Melinda,author.;
"A sparkling, witchy reimagining of Pride and Prejudice, told from the perspective of the troublesome and -- according to her -- much-maligned youngest Bennet sister, Lydia. In this exuberant reimagining of Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice, Lydia Bennet puts pen to paper to relate the real events and aftermath of the classic story from her own perspective. Some facts are well known: Mrs. Bennet suffers from her nerves; Mr. Bennet suffers from Mrs. Bennet, and all five daughters suffer from an estate that is entailed only to male heirs. But Lydia also suffers from entirely different concerns: her best-loved sister Kitty is really a barn cat, and Wickham is every bit as wicked as the world believes him to be, but what else would you expect from a demon? And if you think Mr. Darcy was uptight about dancing etiquette, wait till you see how he reacts to witchcraft. Most of all, Lydia has yet to learn that when you're a witch, promises have power ... Full of enchantment, intrigue, danger, and boundless magic, The Scandalous Confessions of Lydia Bennet, Witch has all the irreverent wit, strength, and romance of Pride and Prejudice -- while offering a highly unexpected redemption for the wildest Bennet sister"--

Black friend : essays / by Fumudoh, Ziwe,author.;
Ziwe Fumudoh made a name for herself staring interviewees in the eye and asking: "How many Black friends do you have?" She's an expert at making people squirm, coming right out and asking the tough questions about race and racism that our culture has made white people experts at dancing around. In 'The Book of Ziwe', she turns this incisive perspective on the culture at large. It is a deeply hilarious takedown -- and send-up -- of our culture's (mis)understanding of race.
