Claiming the B in LGBT: Illuminating the Bisexual Narrative
Even as the broader LGBT community enjoys political and societal advances in North America, the bisexual community still today contends with decades of misinformation stereotyping them as innately indecisive, self-loathing, and untrustworthy. Claiming the B in LGBT strives to give bisexuals a seat at the table. This guidebook to the history and future of the bisexual movement fuses a chronology of bisexual organizing with essays, poems, and articles detailing the lived experiences of bisexual activities struggling against a dominant culture driven by norms of monosexual attraction, compulsory monogamy, and inflexible notions of gender expression and identity. Kate Harrad’s anthology of a thriving identity yearning to realize itself provides a vision of bisexuality that is beyond gay and straight, rather than left to merely occupy the space between.Read more

101 Places to Have Sex Before You Die
You remember your first, you remember your worst, and you should definitely remember some special moments in between. But you should also have a few memories of places where you’ve enjoyed “sleeping” with your partner that doesn’t involve the same old place you wake up in every day. 101 PLACES TO HAVE SEX BEFORE YOU DIE provides readers with a list of real places where real people can have sex without too much difficulty (and it’ll always be worth the trouble). In some instances there will only be time to round one of the bases (think “Drive-thru”); other suggestions will allow you time to re-enact that entire beach scene from From Here to Eternity(perhaps on your neighbour’s kitchen floor).Each location in 101 PLACES TO HAVE SEX BEFORE YOU DIE will be accompanied by a box to check off once the reader has successfully completed the deed there, a place where they can mark whether or not they’d venture there again, and a “notes” section for commentary. In addition, helpful icons will indicate certain hazards or special considerations for each place (for instance, if there’s a chance you might get arrested, if there are time constraints, if there’s a risk of embarrassment, etc.).
Whether you’re feeling romantic, adventurous, sporty, lazy, or just plain naughty, this book is a must-have for anyone who enjoys a good romp in the hay (or in the reptile house at the zoo).

THE BESTSELLER THAT DEFINED AN AGE
‘Everything, somehow, fit together; some sly and benevolent Providence was revealing itself by degrees and I felt myself trembling on the brink of a fabulous discovery, as though any morning it was all going to come together—my future, my past, the whole of my life—and I was going to sit up in bed like a thunderbolt and say oh! oh! oh!’
Under the influence of a charismatic classics professor, a group of clever, eccentric misfits at a New England college discover a way of thought and life a world away from their banal contemporaries. But their search for the transcendent leads them down a dangerous path, beyond human constructs of morality.
