Well today's nominees completely shatter that stereotype in such a way that if you were to ever compare them to it, you would wish you never mentioned it.

Hands up anyone who’s looking for or has already sought out a human development coach. Be honest, what was the first thing you looked for… Was it someone you’d get along with? Well, on today’s ripping new episode of Dorothy and the Dealer, Mitch and Mills explain why that is the WORST idea for true transformation. And how the fundamental rule you should be following is to find someone who CHALLENGES you, not just supports you. Get. A. Coach. That. Kicks. Your. Ass. Good coaches grab your hand and walk you through things. But GREAT coaches push you to do it yourself. - They should be calling you out on things you don’t want to own. - They won’t care about being liked, they’ll care about your journey’s success. - And they aren’t afraid to be authentic and share their own story. Building someone’s self-worth takes time, experience, and the strength to keep someone accountable. Take Dan Pena, the trillion-dollar man. Even MITCH had to take a break from listening to him because he’s so ruthless. But his success grows, because he believes in people. And above all, a great coach accepts that they can only get you so far - that’s why they are always educating themselves too. New podcast episodes each and every Sunday.

Amanda and Jenn discuss Southern fiction, Spanglish, portal fantasy, and more in this week's episode of Get Booked. This episode is sponsored by The Big Lie by Julie Mayhew and Book Riot Insiders. Bookstore Giveaway: bookriot.com/bookstoregiveaway Questions 1. I love love love novels written in Spanglish, both because I'm working on my Spanish, but also because I, too, live in a different community in which most people with whom I interact are bilingual and books like Junot Diaz's are exactly how we talk, albeit in a different language. My favorite genre is literary fiction, but I would take recommendations for good mysteries, YA, essay/poetry collections, or, if they're very well-written, fantasy or sci-fi. Bonus points for evoking a strong sense of place that immediately makes me want to book a trip wherever the book is set. Note: I'm not good with animal death, so either steer clear of that or at least include a trigger warning. Thanks! --Sarah 2. Hello Book Riot! I work at a college, and like a lot of colleges, each year our school assigns a summer reading book for the first-year students. I am just curious what books you two would recommend. What book, fiction or nonfiction, would you want every new college student to read? Thanks! Love the podcast. --Mel 3. Hello Amanda and Jenn! I love your show and all of your recommendations. I have one that I don't think you've covered yet. Growing up, I've always loved Alice & all the other wonderful characters in Wonderland and now, more recently, Neil Gaiman's Coraline and her freaky little alternate reality. I feel similarly about Peter Pan and Neverland, though I didn't read those books (only watched the movies. Oops!) I think they all appeal to this childhood desire to find a secret room or portal (my most common nighttime dream) that is fun, exciting, colorful, magical, and adventurous. If I'm real, it also appeals to my desire to escape the stress and terror of the world. Do you have any recommendations for similar books? Thank you!! P.S. I have read Harry Potter, the Secret Garden, etc. and while I enjoyed these books, I'm looking for something a little different than these. I've thought about reading the Narnia series, but still don't think it's quite what I want. I think I'd prefer something with one main character, even if there is a strong supportive cast, and also something that is a quicker read. --Kristin 4. Hi Jenn and Amanda, I love the podcast and look forward to it every week. I feel like the last few books I've read have been stories to "get through." I enjoy them, but don't find myself savoring words for words alone. I also find that I haven't read much romance lately. Could you recommend something where the language is as decadent as chocolate and there might be some will they/won't they romantic speculation? Favorite books include The Sugar Queen, Jane Eyre, The Blue Sword, and A Tale for the Time-Being. Thank you! --Devin 5. I recently read and loved both Hatching Twitter by Nick Bilton and Startup by Doree Shafrir, and this latest Uber scandal has got me interested in more behind-the-scenes tech company/startup books. I read Dave Eggers' The Circle when it first came out and thought it was just kind of okay (though it feels sacrilegious to me to criticize Dave Eggers) - I need some strong characters to really hook me into a story, though it doesn't matter if they're likable or not. I'm much less interested in the technology-is-world-changing angle than I am in the company culture angle. Fiction or nonfiction doesn't matter to me - I'm just looking for a juicy story. Thanks in advance! --Amy 6. I recently plowed my way through War and Peace and I loved it! However, I've realized that I know nothing about the Napoleonic Wars or Russian history. I prefer historical fiction but I wouldn't say no to some readable nonfiction either. Thanks! --Rachael 7. I absolutely love Secret Life of Bees by Sue Monk Kidd. I recently read Whistling Past the Graveyard which had a similar storyline. Can you recommend any other books similar with a child/preteen narrator, set in the south with difficult family life? Thanks in advance. Love the show! --Eboni Books Discussed Jade City by Fonda Lee Orphan Island by Laurel Snyder Shadowshaper by Daniel Jose Older Yaqui Delgado Wants to Kick Your Ass by Meg Medina The New Jim Crow by Michelle Alexander Citizen: An American Lyric by Claudia Rankine The Girl Who Circumnavigated Fairyland in a Ship of Her Own Making by Catherynne Valente Magonia by Maria Dahvana Headley Fingersmith by Sarah Waters (Malinda Lo on Recommended) The Queen of the Night by Alexander Chee Infomocracy by Malka Older Reset by Ellen Pao The Winter Palace by Eva Stachniak Doctor Zhivago by Boris Pasternak (Queen of the Night and Count of Monte Cristo by Alexandre Dumas) Bastard Out of Carolina by Dorothy Allison (ALL THE TRIGGER WARNINGS EVER) The Heart is a Lonely Hunter by Carson McCullers

The Lesbian Review Podcast 10 Lesfic Women Who Will Kick Your Ass In this episode Sheena is Joined by Brooklyn, fellow reviewer and all round awesome person, and we are talking about 10 lesbian fiction women who will kick your ass. We love reading action, adventures and other books with awesome heroines who can get some serious stuff done. So we decided to go through some of our favorite kick ass characters. Sheena’s List 1 Ruby from The Only Way by Jamie Sullivan The Only Way is set is a bleak, poverty stricken world. The city holds the wealth and opulence of those with too much money and no caring for anyone else. Next to it is the alley, a sector much poorer than the city but a veritable palace in comparison to the Gutter where the poorest residents live. Each section is blocked off from the others with security guards, fences and gates that need passes. Our main character, Heart, lives in the Gutter. To make ends meet her father is a fighter. Fighters earn more than many of the residents who pick up bits of metal and thrown away appliances that have landed in the trash heap. Fighting is dangerous, though and when her father doesn’t come home from a fight she had to figure out how to keep her family alive. Her mother was injured in a work accident and is not healthy enough to find work, even if there were jobs available, and the oldest of the three younger siblings is only twelve years in age. She looks for work, but knows that she will only find work on her back. In a desperate bid to feed her family she cuts her hair, pretends to be a boy and enters the world of no-holds-barred fighting. Initially she is dismissed by Arena owners until one man decides to give her a chance and takes her on to train her. It is at his Arena, in the Alley, where she meets his daughter, Ruby. Ruby trains Hart to fight and they develop a strong friendship. As they grow closer, Hart finds it increasingly difficult to keep up the appearance of being a boy.
