I’m excited to publish my first book and because I get uncomfortable when people have high expectations, I'd like to use this opportunity to showcase my ineptitude, pettiness and the frequency with which I embarrass myself. And while many of my female inspirations who have become authors are incredibly well-educated and accomplished comedy writers, I'm very, very funny on Twitter, according to Buzzfeed and my mom, so I feel like this is a great idea. Quick question: are run-on sentences still frowned upon? Wait, is ending a sentence with a preposition still frowned upon? I mean, upon frowned? Dammit! Anna Kendrick. Anna Kendrick’s autobiographical collection of essays amusingly recounts memorable moments throughout her life, from her middle-class upbringing in New England to the blockbuster movies that have made her one of Hollywood’s most popular actresses today. Expanding upon the witty and ironic dispatches for which she is known, Anna Kendrick’s essays offer her one-of-a-kind commentary on the absurdities she’s experienced on her way to and from the heart of pop culture.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"a-expander-header a-expander-partial-collapse-header\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Clapping Pages","offers":[{"title":"Used","offer_id":45158211977402,"sku":"2SSLGKPA9-Used","price":59.0,"currency_code":"AED","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0713\/5576\/0826\/files\/ScrappyLittleNobody.jpg?v=1758071105"},{"product_id":"turning-points-3","title":"Turning points by Dr APJ Abdul Kalam","description":"\u003ch2 data-start=\"148\" data-end=\"243\"\u003eBook Summary: \u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"245\" data-end=\"584\" class=\"\"\u003e\u003cem data-start=\"245\" data-end=\"261\"\u003eTurning Points\u003c\/em\u003e is an autobiographical account of Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam, the former President of India and a renowned scientist.

In his own, very frank, words, Herschelle Gibbs chronicles the ups and downs of his personal and professional life, and describes what it’s been like to be part of the Proteas set-up for the past fourteen years, through the controversies of its various captains, coaches and administrators. To the Point is, of course, a spicy story of excess – women, alcohol, money … and plenty of runs – but underlying it all is a warm and generous man who wears his heart on his sleeve.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"a-expander-header a-expander-partial-collapse-header\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Clapping Pages","offers":[{"title":"Used","offer_id":45158442598586,"sku":"2TEJJAWAP-Used","price":69.0,"currency_code":"AED","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0713\/5576\/0826\/files\/Tothepoint.jpg?v=1758077354"},{"product_id":"my-road-to-victory-hardcover","title":"My Road to Victory [Hardcover] (RARE BOOKS)","description":"\u003cdiv data-cel-widget=\"bookDescription_feature_div\" data-csa-c-id=\"3yjr9b-lq3gl4-i24nwd-fbztdb\" data-csa-c-is-in-initial-active-row=\"false\" data-csa-c-asin=\"0091737389\" data-csa-c-slot-id=\"bookDescription_feature_div\" data-csa-c-content-id=\"bookDescription\" data-csa-c-type=\"widget\" data-feature-name=\"bookDescription\" class=\"celwidget\" id=\"bookDescription_feature_div\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"a-expander-collapsed-height a-row a-expander-container a-spacing-base a-expander-partial-collapse-container\" data-a-expander-collapsed-height=\"140\" data-a-expander-name=\"book_description_expander\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"a-expander-content a-expander-partial-collapse-content\" aria-expanded=\"false\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAutobiography of the Irish cyclist, Stephen Roche, winner of the \"Giro d'Italia\", the \"Tour de France\" and the World Championship in 1987.

Today they provide an incendiary portrait of the flash and dash and power brokering of the Excessive Eighties in New York and Hollywood.The Vanity Fair Diaries is the story of an Englishwoman barely out of her twenties who arrives in New York City with a dream. Summoned from London in hopes that she can save Condé Nast's troubled new flagship Vanity Fair, Tina Brown is immediately plunged into the maelstrom of the competitive New York media world and the backstabbing rivalries at the court of the planet's slickest, most glamour-focused magazine company. She survives the politics, the intrigue, and the attempts to derail her by a simple stratagem: succeeding. In the face of rampant skepticism, she triumphantly reinvents a failing magazine.Here are the inside stories of Vanity Fair scoops and covers that sold millions―the Reagan kiss, the meltdown of Princess Diana's marriage to Prince Charles, the sensational Annie Leibovitz cover of a gloriously pregnant, naked Demi Moore. In the diary's cinematic pages, the drama, the comedy, and the struggle of running an \"it\" magazine come to life. Brown's Vanity Fair Diaries is also a woman's journey, of making a home in a new country and of the deep bonds with her husband, their prematurely born son, and their daughter.Astute, open-hearted, often riotously funny, Tina Brown's The Vanity Fair Diaries is a compulsively fascinating and intimate chronicle of a woman's life in a glittering era.\u003c\/span\u003e","brand":"Clapping Pages","offers":[{"title":"Used","offer_id":45206847684794,"sku":"2XIXRG5XD-Used","price":79.0,"currency_code":"AED","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0713\/5576\/0826\/files\/FDSY.jpg?v=1759597388"},{"product_id":"the-darker-the-night-the-brighter-the-stars-hardcover-rare-books","title":"The darker the night, the brighter the stars [hardcover] [rare books]","description":"\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWhen celebrated neuropsychologist Paul Broks's wife died of cancer, it sparked a journey of grief and reflection that traced a lifelong attempt to understand how the brain gives rise to the soul.

A devout Catholic, and a ruthless on-field sledger. A brutal enforcer, and a soft-hearted family man. The Australian record-holder for highest score in Tests and One Day Internationals, who was at times troubled by self-doubt and doubters. In Standing My Ground, Hayden confronts these contradictions head-on. He talks frankly about the forces that shaped his journey from fringe international to a giant of the game. He dissects Australia's tactic of verbal warfare and his own role as a key aggressor, taking us on a privileged tour inside the sporting machine that dominated all comers in a golden age of Australian cricket. This isn't a predictable ball-by-ball account of a stellar career. Instead, Hayden delivers characteristically direct assessment of the matches and the people that mattered most. He pays homage to great role models like Allan Border and explains his deep connection to controversial Andrew Symonds, but also reveals colourful clashes along the way. He opens up on umpires, the media, superstitions, teammates and opponents with disarming honesty and humour. The country boy from Kingaroy rose to greatness in the cricket world.
