The newest offering by bestselling author is a sequel to Bloodsucking Fiends (1995), and it picks up almost exactly where that novel left off. Jody has turned her boyfriend Tommy into a vampire, much to his disgust. Being undead is a tough gig, and in typical Moore fashion, chaos and hilarity ensue.

Indie rock duo have 4 albums under their belt. With the release of their 5th entitled The Con, their style continues to evolve.
From their acoustic beginnings on Under Feet Like Ours, Tegan and Sara have come a long way. Their third album, If it Was You, incorporated a full band. On The Con, their arrangements are more complex, and their songs are more atmospheric. At the core, the sound is familiar to anyone who has enjoyed the duo's last efforts- solid personal songs about love, loss and the complexities of being a 20-something trying to find a place in this crazy world.
