Perfect for the Bill Murray fan in all of us, this epic collection of "Bill Murray stories"--many reported for the first time here--distills a set of guiding principles out of his extraordinary ability to infuse the everyday with surprise, absurdity, and wonder.

No one will ever believe you.

New York Times bestselling author Gavin Edwards, like the rest of us, has always been fascinated with Bill Murray--in particular the beloved actor's adventures off-screen, which rival his filmography for sheer entertainment value. Edwards traveled to the places where Murray has lived, worked, and partied, in search of the most outrageous and hilarious Bill Murray stories from the past four decades, many of which have never before been reported. Bill once paid a child five dollars to ride his bike into a swimming pool. The star convinced Harvard's JV women's basketball team to play with him in a private game of hoops. Many of these surreal encounters ended with Bill whispering, "No one will ever believe you" into a stranger's ear. But The Tao of Bill Murray is more than just a collection of wacky anecdotes. A sideways mix of comedy and philosophy, full of photo bombs, late-night party crashes, and movie-set antics, this is the perfect book for anyone who calls themselves a Bill Murray fan--which is to say, everyone.

Praise for The Tao of Bill Murray

"When confronted by life's challenges and opportunities, we should all be asking ourselves, 'What would Bill Murray do?' This book actually has the answers."--Jay Duplass, writer, director, actor, fan of Bill Murray

" Gavin Edwards] captures Murray's enigmatic, comic genius."--The Washington Post

"Rib-tickling."--Newsday

"If you are among the multitudes who have a Bill Murray story (viz: 'I was in the airport bar, and who sat down next to me but Bill Murray?'), The Tao of Bill Murray will speak to you."--Elle

"Murray is an endless delight, and his knack for bons mots and non sequiturs will keep readers laughing before revealing an unexpectedly poignant vision for happiness. . . . A fun and revealing look behind the charm and mythos of Bill Murray that will only strengthen his legend."--Kirkus Reviews

"This book is bursting with anecdotes that underline Murray's unconventional and fun-loving life. . . . Murray's fans are sure to savor it] and walk away with a deeper appreciation of the actor and his work."--Publishers Weekly (starred review)

"I just can't fathom how anyone could not like the man. He lives as much as possible by his own rules; this is a guy who doesn't buy round-trip airline tickets because he prefers to make decisions on the fly. That old question of the three people you'd most like to have dinner with? I'd pick Bill Murray and leave the other two chairs empty just to see who he pulls over to join us. . . . You will love The Tao of Bill Murray. Period."--GeekDad

"A hilarious read--occasionally heartwarming, sometimes head-scratching. . . . Sure to please Murray fans."--Library Journal

This product does not work very well. Also does not rub in easy and takes several days to get it off of you.

Caribbean approved sunscreen
we bought this sunscreen due to the fact that the Caribbean doesn’t allow other sunscreens that are not Reef safe. I’m usually not a fan of mineral sunscreen due to the fact that it leaves a white residue. This sunscreen still leaves a white residue, but it is a very minor white residue. It worked well for the pool on our cruise ship and for the ocean. I didn’t have to reapply as often as I thought I would have for a mineral sunscreen. I don’t know if I still feel that the product was worth the price/amount, but I was overall satisfied with the Protection it gave us.

Fantastic new world! These Hockey Players take the cake!
Format: Kindle
What an epic beginning to a new world for Piper Rayne! The Nest and the Hockey men that inhabit the building are going to be something else in an entirely awesome way. Rowan Landry is a hockey player dubbed “Mr. Heartbreak,” and that gives you a clue of what he is known for stumbles upon a woman that he can’t resist. Will he change his ways? Or will they part ways and continue his heartbreak streak? I really enjoyed Rowan as a character because he is this alpha male hockey sensation and as you read you find out that there is so much more to him that just being a god at hockey. He is kind, heartwarming and knows how to use what he has to get what he wants. He is loyal and honest. A great leading man for this new series. Then you meet Kyleigh and you can’t help but be in love with her charm. She is witty, funny, beautiful and above all can hold her own and dish out quips! Kyleigh and Rowan needed to find themselves and their journey was beautiful to read. The rest of the Nest inhabitants form a charismatic second line of characters. It made me wish that I had their stories in my kindle already. I am looking forward to more. Bodhi will make your heart melt, you just wait! I loved this new world. I loved the sexiness in finding yourself and stumbling upon a once in a lifetime love maybe.

Stick Handling and Emotional Damage
Format: Kindle
Kyleigh (a.k.a Leigh) and Rowan meet at a wedding, do the horizontal mambo, and part ways thinking it’s a one-and-done. But fate had other plans. They run into each other again, and Rowan, in classic “emotionally unavailable man with feelings he doesn’t understand” fashion, suggests a casual, no-strings-attached situationship. As if that ever works.😏 Spoiler alert: It doesn’t. They fall for each other, obviously. But wait! Kyleigh hasn’t been totally honest. She gave him a fake name—and oh yeah, she’s also the little sister of his former teammate and best friend, Conor. It’s fine though, right? Because they’re not teammates anymore? (Cue evil laughter) Except that Conor gets traded to Rowan’s current team, and suddenly Kyleigh’s secret has the potential to blow up everything she cares about. Let’s talk about the spice level: 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️ Let me just say—this might be the spiciest Piper Rayne book I’ve listened to yet. Rowan and Kyleigh were straight-up feral for each other. The scenes were hot without feeling repetitive, and you could feel how much they were starting to care for each other underneath all that heat. What I love about Rayne is that her books always deliver a solid story with a strong emotional pull and enough steam to keep things interesting. This one had both. Now for my only issue: The third act breakup. Look, I get it. Drama makes the world go round. But Kyleigh not telling Rowan her real name when they were just supposed to be friends-with-benefits? That’s not betrayal. That’s standard hot girl protocol. Rowan, you didn’t even know her last name—calm down.😒 Let’s take a moment to talk about Conor. He was an absolute douche-canoe. I’m an older sibling, so I get the whole protective thing—but this man was on a power trip. Your sister is a grown @ss woman, not a teenager sneaking out of the house. You’re her brother, not her father. Sit down and take several deep breaths. 🙄 We got the Avengers of audiobook narrators: Sean Masters, Erin Mallon, Connor Crais, JF Harding, Troy Duran, Teddy Hamilton, CJ Bloom. That’s not a cast—that’s a supergroup! Every voice fit the characters so well, which brought everything to life. Zero complaints! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Overall, Mr. Heartbreaker gave me everything I wanted: spice, swoon, hockey boys being dumb, and a heroine who didn’t owe anyone an explanation—but gave them one anyway. Definitely worth a listen.🏒💗 ⭐⭐⭐⭐ HEA? yes 3rd act break-up? yes Audio🎧 5/5 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️/5
