...Kate Christensen's In the Drink (Doubleday; 278 pages; $22.95), Suzanne Finnamore's Otherwise Engaged (Knopf; 209 pages; $22) and Melissa Bank's keen The Girls' Guide to Hunting and Fishing (Viking; 274 pages; $23.95)--feature heroines who might enjoy Bridget's company but eventually tire of her ninny-ness...

And its small size betters many of its larger competitors that seem to thrive in bulkier and unwieldy residences, far too big for the pants-side...
...verdant uncentered portraits of dead presidents in the name of Big Government and Che Guevara. Get yours, if you must; I will not be a red octagon for the capitalist driver or passenger. However, as a long-time hip-hop fan, I do hate two things: lies and wack-ness. Both of which seem to permeate mainstream...
