It’s ’86, the era of Pop Rocks, Jelly shoes, and big hair bands. Rachael O’Brien’s freshman plan seems simple: Attend a southern college five-hundred miles from her hometown of Canton, Ohio, earn an Art History degree, party, and lose her virginity—hopefully, not in that order. “Becoming a woman” somehow turns into a series of life lessons that she and her journal are lucky to live to tell. Threatened by a redheaded She-Devil, avoiding the advances of a thirty-something redneck, and discovering an art fraud scheme interfere with her “to do” list. On top of her troubles at school, Rachael finds herself forging a new relationship with her emotionally distant father after her mother abandons him for a psychic adventure.

Bad decision-making, law-bending behavior, surprising romances, and near-death experiences can make freshman year challenging in Paisley Ray’s DEEP FRIED AND PICKLED, a quick-witted, south-of-the-Mason-Dixon tale of survival.

The Partly Cloudy Patriot
Sarah Vowell
4.3 Stars (82 Reviews)
Genre: Politics & Social Sciences | Literary Criticism & Theory | History

Sarah Vowell travels through the American past and, in doing so, investigates the dusty, bumpy roads of her own life. In this insightful and funny collection of personal stories Vowell — widely hailed for her inimitable stories on public radio’s This American Life — ponders a number of curious questions: Why is she happiest when visiting the sites of bloody struggles like Salem or Gettysburg? Why do people always inappropriately compare themselves to Rosa Parks? Why is a bad life in sunny California so much worse than a bad life anywhere else? What is it about the Zen of foul shots? And, in the title piece, why must doubt and internal arguments haunt the sleepless nights of the true patriot?

Her essays confront a wide range of subjects, themes, icons, and historical moments: Ike, Teddy Roosevelt, and Bill Clinton; Canadian Mounties and German filmmakers; Tom Cruise and Buffy the Vampire Slayer; twins and nerds; the Gettysburg Address, the State of the Union, and George W. Bush’s inauguration.

The result is a teeming and engrossing book, capturing Vowell’s memorable wit and her keen social commentary.
