The Tommy Gun Dolls

This book was beautiful and badass and I CANNOT WAIT for the next volume. After waiting years to get my hands on this I was not disappointed. The illustrations are out of this world good and I couldn't stop reading until I was done. I had to know how these dames got out of their mess. Mix together some burlesque, flappers, mafia, vengeance, and general feminist badassery and you have an idea of how great this graphic novel is. Check it out, you won't regret it!

Miss Mina Murray's Little Book of Better Burlesque

After backing the kickstarter for this book I was expecting a little something bigger, but as the adage goes, size doesn't always matter. This cute little edition is filled with some truly helpful tips that even non-performing burlesque dancers (like myself) will utilize; how to get rhinestones out of the carpet, how to quickly chill champagne, how to straighten seams. Written by "the Martha Stewart of Burlesque" this guide is compact and dead useful. A must read for performers and a fun read for those of us without the magic talents :)
