    The definitive guide to being a teen in the modern age, with sage advice from a modern teenager and appealing to fans of Rookie.

Sixteen-year-old Ruby Karp addresses the issues facing every high schooler, from grades to peer pressure to Snapchat stories, and unpacks their complicated effects on the teen psyche. Ruby advises her peers on the importance of feminism ("not just the Spice Girls version"), how to deal with jealousy and friend break-ups, family life, and much more. The book takes an in-depth look at the effect of social media on modern teens and the growing pressures of choosing the right college and career. Amy Poehler says, "This book is filled with juicy young person wisdom". With Ruby's powerful underlying message "we are more than just a bunch of dumb teenagers obsessed with our phones", Earth Hates Me is the definitive guide to being a teen in the modern age.

    This Is Really Happening , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 266min
    BuzzFeed senior writer Erin Chack hits you in the guts, the feelings, and the funny bone all at once with this collection of personal essays that sounds like Sloane Crosley for the Snapchat generation. In turns hysterically funny and heartbreakingly poignant, Erin recounts everything from meeting her soul mate at age 14 to her first chemotherapy session at age 19 to what really goes on behind the scenes at a major Internet media company. She authentically captures the agony and the ecstasy of the millennial experience, whether it's her first kiss ("Sean's tongue! In my mouth! Slippery and wet like a slug in the rain."); or her struggles with anxiety ("When people throw caution to the wind, I am stuck imagining the poor soul who has to break his back sweeping caution into a dustpan"). Yet Erin also offers a fresh perspective on universal themes of resilience and love as she writes about surviving cancer - including learning of her mother's own cancer diagnosis within the same year and her attempts to hide the diagnosis from friends to avoid "un-normaling" everything. Perfect for fans of Jenny Lawson, Amy Poehler, and Kelly Williams Brown, this sharply observed memoir introduces Erin Chack as a strikingly original new voice. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Erin Chack. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/lili/002257/bk_lili_002257_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.

    In Bed with Susie Bright 643: Maintenance Sex, Hörbuch, Digital, 30min, (USK 18)
    What happens when your partner is in the mood and you're not? It's called maintenance sex, and it's been making headlines lately. Susie reads from a Jezebel.com article by Tracy Moore that gives some how-to tips for doing what many call "duty sex". Actress Amy Poehler does it, sex educator Dan Savage does it, and Susie has a lot to say about why maintenance sex is so controversial. Next, we hear all about the first erotic computer game. Susie reads from an Atlantic article by Laine Noone about the first adult soft-porn computer game, which was text-based. When you booted-up the 5.25-inch floppy disk, you saw a puppet player who could "wear condom", "screw hooker", "buy whiskey", etc. - pretty steamy stuff for 1981-era computer games! Susie loves these historical gems. Then, it's "What's New on Audible". Susie shares a new audiobook sample from a number-one best seller right now. Hard Limit by Meredith Wild, narrated by Jennifer Stark and Victor Bevine, will be a huge favorite for those who liked Fifty Shades of Grey. Have a question or news story for Susie?

    My Squirrel Days , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 374min
    Mostly true stories by the irrepressible star of the hit Netflix series Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt.There comes a time in every actress' life when she is faced with the prospect of writing a book. Ellie Kemper, the star of hit Netflix sitcom Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, first gained attention with a one-woman show, Feeling Sad/Mad, at the UCB Theatre in New York, founded by a comedy troupe that counted Amy Poehler, among others, in its ranks. Kemper's popularity exponentially grew with a regular role in the US version of The Office, followed by appearances in the highly successful Bridesmaids and 21 Jump Street.Kemper's infectious personality and easy, natural humour inspired Tina Fey to develop and write Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt specifically for her, and those same qualities shine through in My Squirrel Days, essays and funny stories from Kemper's childhood and career. From her upbringing in suburban St. Louis to her stuffed walrus Waldo to auditioning for Saturday Night Live, from the time she accidentally insulted Ricky Gervais at the Emmy Awards to when she offered a maxi pad to Steve Carrell, Ellie will guide you along her journey through adulthood, from unorganised bride to impatient wife to anxious mother who - as recently observed by a sassy hairstylist - 'dresses like a mum'. Having previously written for GQ, Esquire and The Onion, Ellie Kemper has a voice that is the perfect antidote to the chaos of modern life. My Squirrel Days promises to be as hilarious and as joyous as the best of her work onscreen. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Ellie Kemper.
