- I've tried being nice : essays / by Leary, Ann,author.;
New York Times bestselling author Ann Leary offers a literary feast of humor and wisdom told from the perspective of a recovering people pleaser. Having arrived at a certain age (her prime), Ann Leary casts a wry backward glance at a life spent trying -- and often failing -- to be nice. With wit and surprising candor, Leary recounts the bedlam of home bat invasions, an obsession with online personality tests, and the mortification of taking ballroom dance lessons with her actor husband. She describes hilarious red-carpet fiascos and other observations from the sidelines of fame, while also touching upon her more poignant struggles with alcoholism, her love for her family, her dogs, and so much more. Prepare to laugh, cry, cringe and revel in the comically relatable chaos of Ann Leary's life as revealed in this delightful collection of essays.- Subjects: Biographies.; Essays.; Personal narratives.; Leary, Ann.; Authors, American;

- The Accidental Tourist [electronic resource] : by Tyler, Anne.aut; cloudLibrary;
Macon Leary likes the ordinary. A travel writer who hates travel, he prefers instead to indulge in the comforts of home. His travel guides, authored with the traveling businessman in mind, offers not the points of interest, but the places of familiarity in these foreign locales.       But with his son's death, Leary's simple, orderly life is thrown into chaos. His marriage is crumbling around him, his wife Sarah has left him, and an injury forces him to move back in with his siblings accompanied by his dog Edward, who is too willful to be negotiated with. Leary is out of his depth, until he meets the charming and vivacious Muriel, a dog-obedience trainer with a strange sense of fashion and a whirlwind of personality. Wrangling both Edward and Macon, Muriel up-ends Macon's insular world and thrusts him headlong into a remarkable engagement with life.- Subjects: Electronic books.; Literary; Family Life; Psychological;
