Rachel Harrison: Hardcore Heroines: Rachel Harrison’s Bookshelf for ‘Black Sheep’ (0 comment)
Bookshelf organization is deeply personal. Some prefer by genre, by content, others by aesthetic attributes like color and size. I like to put books together that I think would be friends, that would get along or at least wouldn’t mind being neighbors. Books with protagonists that could maybe commiserate while they begrudgingly appear in the back...

Publisher Comments

Weandrsquo;ve all had one of those days: you sleep through the three alarms youandrsquo;ve set, you put your shirt on inside out, you burn your mouth on your coffee, and itandrsquo;s only 9 a.m.! Daily Dishonesty pays homage to the little lies we tell ourselves just to make it through the day. Based on author Lauren Homandrsquo;s work from the blog of the same title, the book features a colorful collection of 150+ funny lies, beautifully illustrated by Hom. Covering topics such as diets, breakups, friendship, growing up, slacking off, guilty pleasures, and more, these hand-lettered, sassy mantras are both relatable and tongue-in-cheek. Daily Dishonesty is a stylish and chic feel-good gift book that reveals, plays with, and makes light of lifeandrsquo;s little quirks.and#160;

Synopsis

Based on author Lauren Homandrsquo;s popular blog and book of the same title, this calendar features a yearandrsquo;s worth of lovingly hand-lettered mantras that are both familiar and funny: andldquo;I wonandrsquo;t eat all the French fries.andquot; andquot;These heels donandrsquo;t hurt.andrdquo; Yeah, right.

Synopsis

Ironically self-soothing and self-deprecating, Lauren Homand#8217;s cleverly rendered phrases (culled from her blog-turned-book Daily Dishonesty) are pitch-perfect for a journal. Whether you are truly and#8220;over itand#8221; or not, this blank book provides a stylish space to vent, confess, and ponder. Scattered throughout the ruled pages are more full-color examples of Homand#8217;s hand-lettered work.and#160;

Synopsis

Lauren Hom, author of Daily Dishonesty (an award-winning blog-turned-book), celebrates the harmless little lies we tell ourselves every day. With gorgeously hand-lettered type, Lauren transforms ironic statements into pin-able pieces of inspiration. These three portable notebooks (two large and one pocket-sized) have high-quality paperback covers and are sewn with colored thread. One notebook is lined, one notebook is blank, and one notebook has graph paper.

Synopsis

11,002 Things to Be Miserable About is a list of all the reasons NOT to wake up in the morning. Ironically enough, when you put all of them under one cover, its actually very funny. This decidedly absurd inventory of misery is perfect for sardonic and disaffected youth, for people seeking gifts for Traumatic Event Birthdays (like 21, 25, 30, 40, and, well, anything after 40), and for anyone else with an offbeat sense of humor. Enjoy.

 

Some of the entries are pretty basic, like imitation crabmeat, student loans, and David Hasselhoff, but other entries actually include educational things, like: Dust mites, which make up one-third of the weight of a six-year-old pillow. See, you can laugh and learn.


About the Author

Lia Romeo is an award-winning comic playwright who has worked as a P.R. account executive, a receptionist, and a sandwich artist, all of which have equipped her superbly for writing this book.
