Instant New York Times bestsellerA sharp, funny, and honest collection of real-life stories from Kelly Ripa, showing the many dimensions and crackling wit of the beloved daytime talk show host.?This laugh-out-loud book is a must-read for Ripa's legions of fans.? ?Bustle"Ripa has a penchant for name-dropping and rambling (or, as she puts it, making a 'long story, longer'), but her essays are unapologetic, uninhibited, and undeniably hilarious. This banter-filled collection will delight daytime television devotees." ?Publishers WeeklyIn Live Wire, her first book, Kelly shows what really makes her tick. As a professional, as a wife, as a daughter and as a mother, she brings a hard-earned wisdom and an eye for the absurdity of life to every minute of every day. It is her relatability in all of these roles that has earned her fans worldwide and millions of followers on social media. Whether recounting how she and Mark really met, the level of chauvinism she experienced on set, how Jersey Pride follows her wherever she goes, and many, many moments of utter mortification (whence she proves that you cannot, in fact, die of embarrassment) Kelly always tells it like it is. Ms. Ripa takes no prisoners.Surprising, at times savage, a little shameless and always with humor... Live Wire shows Kelly as she really is offscreen?a very wise woman who has something to say.
One of SPIN'S Best Music Memoirs of 2022!Brian Johnson's memoir from growing up in a small town to starting his own band to ultimately replacing Bon Scott, the lead singer of one of the world biggest rock acts, AC/DC. They would record their first album together, the iconic Back in Black, which would become the biggest selling rock album of all time.Brian Johnson was born to a steelworker and WWII veteran father and an Italian mother, growing up in New Castle Upon Tyne, England, a working-class town. He was musically inclined and sang with the church choir. By the early '70s he performed with the glam rock band Geordie, and they had a couple hits, but it was tough going. So tough that by 1976, they disbanded and Brian turned to a blue-collar life.Then 1980 changed everything. Bon Scott, the lead singer and lyricist of the Australian rock band AC/DC died at 33. The band auditioned singers, among them Johnson, whom Scott himself had seen perform and raved about. Within days, Johnson was in a studio with the band, working with founding members Angus and Malcolm Young, Cliff Williams, and Phil Rudd, along with producer Mutt Lange.When the album, Back in Black, was released in July?a mere three months after Johnson had joined the band?it exploded, going on to sell 50 million copies worldwide, and triggering a years-long worldwide tour. It has been declared ?the biggest selling hard rock album ever made? and ?the best-selling heavy-metal album in history.?The band toured the world for a full year to support the album, changing the face of rock music?and Brian Johnson's life?forever.

THIS IS WHAT MOMMY BURNOUT LOOKS LIKEWomen today are fed up. What used to be the stuff of comedy?the harried mom in sweatpants and the messy bun?just isn't funny anymore. Being everything to everyone is just too much pressure and the cracks are starting to show. Think of the number of times you've asked a woman how she was, only to hear, ?I'm exhausted.? ?I'm so stressed out.? ?I'm just so busy.? Think of how many times you've said it yourself. Modern motherhood is something very different from what our grandmothers and mothers experienced. The pressure to produce the most healthy, balanced lunches for your children, enroll them in enriching extracurricular activities for just the right amount of days a week, the birthday party bonanza that must be photo-worthy of posting on social media, and the pressure to get your kids into the right school?these are today's concerns. Add in work-life balance, disconnection from friends and families, and a healthy dose of social media?induced anxiety and you've got a recipe for disaster. No one can sustain this, but millions of women are living this way and doing themselves damage in the process, because constant exposure to this kind of stress causes you physical and emotional harm. This is what Mommy Burnout looks like. Dr. Sheryl Ziegler, a Denver-based child psychotherapist, learned after nineteen years of counseling families and children that while it's generous to go above and beyond for your kids, the fallout goes beyond moms?husbands, partners, colleagues, and, most of all, children are feeling the effects, too. In Mommy Burnout, Dr. Ziegler shares insights on:How to identify if you are suffering from depression and anxiety that requires medication, or burnout, or all threeHow burnout can put marriages in jeopardy in surprising waysHow working moms envy at-home moms, and at-home moms envy working moms, and their levels of dissatisfaction are surprisingly similarHow your burnout makes your kids feel, and how it can even be contagiousWhy burnout makes you feel like your life has no purposeSo how do we stop the burnout cycle and protect our children from the damage?From years of personal and professional practice, Dr. Ziegler has devised a prescriptive program for addressing this epidemic?teaching moms that they can find ways to reenergize themselves and not get mired in guilt. Filled with real stories from real moms, and empowering, proven solutions for alleviating this condition, Mommy Burnout offers the hope modern moms need to save marriages and keep kids happy in the process.
Terrible, thanks for asking. That's how it feels to be a widowed mother at age thirty-one. But before Nora McInerny started the Hot Young Widows Club, she bounced from boyfriend to dopey ?boyfriend? until she met Aaron?a funny and charismatic art director and comic-book nerd. When Aaron was diagnosed with a rare form of brain cancer, they refused to let it limit their love. They got engaged on Aaron's hospital bed, had a baby boy while he was on chemo, and packed a lifetime of marriage into three short years. All too soon, Aaron died in Nora's arms. The obituary they wrote while in hospice touched the nation (and revealed his true Spider-Man identity). With It's Okay to Laugh, Nora puts a young, fresh twist on the subjects of mortality and resilience. What does it actually mean to live your ?one wild and precious life? to the fullest?

Thirty-five years after his death in Paris at age twenty-seven, Jim Morrison's iconic legend remains as powerful as ever, swathed in the mists of mystery. There have been numerous biographies about the self-proclaimed "Lizard King's" life and career.

Based on extensive research and featuring dozens of rarely published photographs, this is the authoritative portrait of the poet, the grim visionary, the haunted man, and his haunting music.
