I don't know what it is about these, broody, tortured and difficult heroes that I love so much, but there you are, I absolutely loved this book!

What initially sparked your interest in writing about Scrabble and the competitive Scrabble community? As Najwa continues to deal with her grief, she competes in her first tournament since Trina’s death, where she discovers that her friend may have been murdered-and the killer could be sitting on the other side of the Scrabble board. It’s the story of Najwa, a Scrabble whiz whose best friend, Trina, collapsed mid-game during the Word Warrior Weekend tournament a year ago.

As a kid who grew up with mainstream, movie star Pryor - post-set-himself-on-fire-freebasing Pryor - I didn’t have a full understanding of his career evolution the steps that had gotten him to that point. Two recent specials, ABC’s The Last Days of Richard Pryor, and The Paramount Network’s I Am Richard Pryor Uncensored (2019) serve to finally place Pryor in the GOAT conversations, where he belongs. ![]() He missed the opportunity for his interviews to go viral, for Jerry Seinfeld to talk to him about his craft on Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee (which I highly recommend everyone watch, even if you just watch the episodes with Black comics), and God forbid, for Vlad to somehow yoke him up for a chat. He passed away 14 years ago, and he would have been 79 on December 1. He’s the second generation of Black celebrity comedians, the first generation of integrated entertainment, and the first-ever winner of the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor. I understand why Pryor isn’t mentioned in current conversation often at this point, he’s a grandfather of comedy. ![]() ![]() ![]() “One of the best parts of 2020 was watching the young, Indigenous cast soar,” she said.

They are creating a fantasy while living in denial, hence forming the major stereotype in the play. Although Gallimard and his partner are trying to create a situation where they can be seen to be in love, it can be seen as a scheme to compensate themselves for their lackluster lives. The relationship displayed in the play is an example of a love that is focused on tentative happiness, notwithstanding the actual situation of the people in the relationship. Though he claims his jokes make him famous, Gallimard seems to be protecting his pride from his audience, and so he is ironical. ![]() Although the audience finds Gallimard to be very humble most of the time, he appears to be full of pride and considers himself special over the opposite gender. Western music seems to overtake Chinese music, so the longest conflict between Asia and other western counties comes into play as western nations seek dominance. The ancient Chinese music and clothing create the western picture of China as a mysterious and exotic culture. ![]() Efforts by Gallimard to prove his masculinity and as a powerful man is only seen to render him a feminine butterfly. ![]() In David Hwang’s Butterfly, the concept of gender roles is created as a means of Gallimard’s demise. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Protective, doesn’t find himself worthy of Lila or the family he was born into.

I wasn’t sure what I was quite expecting, I just knew after reading this author that she would tear me apart and sideways before putting everything back together again and I can tell you that this one just might be my favorite of the series overall. Inked In Lies is the fifth installment in the “Fallen Men” series and its a fantastic installment, this was a easy five star read for me.
