Following her critically acclaimed collection of short stories, City of Boys, Beth Nugent brings her dark and eerie vision to a powerful first novel. Live Girls is the story of Catherine, in her twenties, who sells tickets in a run-down porn theater in a decrepit port city, A sign in the window of the seedy hotel where she lives reads Transients Welcome. Her only friend is Jerome, an anorexic drag queen who searches for love among the sailors. As Catherine and Jerome set out for Hollywood, we witness -with equal horror and fascination -- their desperate attempt to find redemption in a world that offers them so little. In haunting, stylized prose, Nugent takes us deep into her protagonist's psyche while painting a bizarre -- yet oddly familiar -- picture of a dissociated, disconnected America. Live Girls is a tour de force that will leave no one who reads it unshaken. From the Hardcover edition.Binding Type: Paperback

Beautiful Color & Texture – Instantly Upgraded My Bedroom
Color: 07 - Mineral Blue, Size: King, Color: 07 - Mineral Blue, Size: King
I absolutely love this comforter set. The color is rich and calming, and the textured detailing adds such a classy, elegant touch. It looks way more expensive than it actually is and completely transformed my bedroom.
The fabric feels soft and smooth, and it lays nicely on the bed without looking stiff. It gives that clean, polished hotel vibe but still feels cozy and comfortable.
My only small complaint is the size of the comforter. I wish it were a little bigger, especially for fuller coverage on the sides of the bed. If you like that oversized, draped look, you may want to size up if possible. Other than that, it’s perfect.
Overall, I’m very happy with this purchase and would definitely recommend it if you’re looking for something stylish and affordable.

King size comforter
Color: 11 - Black, Size: California King
I’ve had this black king-size comforter for some time now, and it remains one of my favorite purchases. The comforter is thick, incredibly warm, and ideal for winter. I love the scrunched, textured design, which gives it a modern, stylish look, and the deep black color adds a sleek, elegant touch. It also came with both a set of pillowcases and a fitted sheet, along with a standard flat sheet, offering great versatility. Even now, it adds both style and comfort to my bedroom, and I couldn’t be happier with its quality.
