Autoantonyms
The first major section of this book opens with 335 examples of autoantonyms, such as "cleave," which can mean "cling to" or "separate from." These are followed by 55 pairs of anti-antonyms-the opposite of autoantonyms. Anti-antonyms are pairs of words that look like they should be antonyms, like "slow up" and "slow down." They are synonyms: two or more words that mean the same thing. Those lists precede "Words with Letters Pronounced Twice" and their opposites, "Words with Ghost Letters," which are followed by "Words Always with Prefixes" and "Words Always with Suffixes." These are followed by seven groups of various types of English redundancies. The second central section includes articles related to the English language. Topics include brief articles on the importance, meanings, or spellings of certain words: "Alright," "Renege," "Ain't," and "Covet," with one article about two words: "Very" and "Extra." It concludes with more significant articles on the Oxford comma and "Y" and "W" as half-vowels in English

Dead People Suck
An honest, irreverent, laugh-out-loud guide to coping with death and dying from Emmy-nominated writer and New York Times bestselling co-author of Sh*tty Mom Laurie Kilmartin. Death is not for the faint of heart, and sometimes the best way to cope is through humor. No one knows this better than comedian Laurie Kilmartin. She made headlines by live-tweeting her father's time in hospice and her grieving process after he passed, and channeled her experience into a comedy special, 45 Jokes About My Dead Dad. Dead People Suck is her hilarious guide to surviving (sometimes) death, dying, and grief without losing your mind. If you are old and about to die, sick and about to die, or with a loved one who is about to pass away or who has passed away, there's something for you. With chapters like "Are You An Old Man With Daughters? Please Shred Your Porn," "If Cancer was an STD, It Would Be Cured By Now," and "Unsubscribing Your Dead Parent from Tea Party Emails," Laurie Kilmartin guides you through some of life's most complicated moments with equal parts heart and sarcasm.
