Something a little bit different today. Last week I shared my 25th alternative cover and review for my blog book club. I love making these and I loved (perhaps the wrong word) reading The Rules Do Not Apply. This cover is super sketchy but it took a little while to get right - you can see some of the versions I went through if you swipe. You can also check out the cover all mocked up with my review at www.workovereasy.com #illustrationdaily #illustrationartists #bookcover #bookcoverdesign #whatimreading #bookclub #ariellevy #therulesdonotapply #memoir #sketch #handwriting #digitalart #affinitydesigner https://www.instagram.com/p/Bxsfi_3BPBf/?igshid=v83cb9migbfm

“Until recently, I lived in a world where lost things could always be replaced. But it has been made overwhelmingly clear to me now that anything you think is yours by right can vanish, and what you can do about that is nothing at all.”

Muriel: “You know right away that the author lives on the edge and that she is stubborn but also so smart. It’s a refreshing, gut-wrenching, and startlingly honest memoir. She starts to describe what you think is just a regular crush, until you realize that her crush is a woman. You get that sexuality is on a spectrum and that you can love anybody. In her case, the woman turns out to be her life partner. We always imagine all of these experiences and they are always realer than we think. When I graduated from high school I had a crush on a girl who was my friend. We just hung out, but at the end of summer we found out that we both had feelings for each other. That was a moment where life opened my eyes.” @haayymuriel #TheRulesDoNotApply #ArielLevy / @theubc for #subwaybookreview #newyork 🗽 (at MTA Subway - L Train)

True or False: Is “The Most Beautiful” a New York Times Bestseller? False.
There is a rumor circulating throughout social media that The Most Beautiful by Mayte Garcia, first ex-wife of Prince, is a New York Times (NYT) bestseller. Although Mayte and her supporters would like for this to be true because the New York Times Bestsellers list is the most widely recognizable and most reliable of all lists that rank book sales, it is unequivocally NOT on this list, nor has it been since the book was released on April 4, 2017.
New York Times ranks about 15-20 books on its lists.  They rank them in three major categories: Fiction, Non-Fiction, and Children’s. Each category has sub-categories for hardcovers, paperbacks, and a combined list of print and e-books and tallies sales from large and small booksellers, as well as online sales. The Most Beautiful has not made an appearance on the NYT list since its release. On this week’s list, six of the 15 books are about politics, the rest are memoirs. The only memoir about the loss of an infant and spouse is the book that ranks #14 on the list and is by Ariel Levy, The Rules Do Not Apply. Levy is a reporter for NYT and her book was released on March 14, 2017, it is her fifth.
Mayte’s book is an Amazon bestseller, however, Amazon only calculates the books sold on their site and this can vary by hour or even include books that don’t exist. In 2016, Brent Underwood listed a bogus “book,” Putting My Foot Down, that wasn’t more than a “cover” with a picture of his foot and turned it into a #1 Amazon bestseller in several categories with only a total of three books sold.  About his experiment, Underwood said, “they make it seem like an Amazon best seller is an actual achievement, because they stand to benefit in financially and professionally. Authors aren’t exempt from guilt, by the way. They are the ones paying these people to do this, but in some important ways I think the pusher is worse than the user.” Although Underwood’s experiment did result in an actual book deal, Amazon removed the bogus book after 14 “copies” were sold.
Because it is always best to check facts before spreading untruths. We at thefunksoldiers.tumblr.com always provide our sources. You can view the April 17, 2017 NYT Bestsellers and the April 9, 2017 list online.  A full explanation of the methodology of NYT can be found here.  The only book about Prince that does appear in the NYT Book Review is Ben Greenman’s Dig If You Will The Picture: Funk, Sex, God and Genius in the Music of Prince which garnered a feature article.
4/15/17 Update: As of this publication (April 14, 2017) it is expected that The Most Beautiful will make an appearance on the NYT Bestsellers list the week of April 23, 2017, two days following the the first anniversary of Prince’s death. This is not uncommon and we have seen the same with books on JFK appearing the week of November 22 and books on Michael Jackson appearing on the list the week of June 25. It will be interesting to see if it makes an appearance the week following, also how the new release sales on  Tuesday April 18 will impact the rankings predicted for April 23, 2017. NYT says that a “version” of the online list will appear in the April 23, 2017 issue of their Book Review, this version will be adjusted for the reasons explained. Today is April 15, 2017, the April 17, 2017 NYT Bestsellers list applies until the week of April 23.

Some books from my nonfiction collection, and I just ordered two more 👀 Today has been such a weird day. I woke up feeling really motivated to do some Master’s prep, but I soon got really anxious and I lost motivation for everything. Nothing on youtube interested me, netflix wasn’t working (and nothing looked interesting), no books were I interesting me, so I just started at the wall 🥲 Do you have these meh days, too? How do you deal with them? Let me know 😊 #nonfiction #nonfictionbooks #nonfictionreads #books #bookstagram #bookpile #feministreads #tonimorrison #hoodfeminism #essaycollection #ariellevy #rulesdontapply #roxanegay #badfeminist #feministsdontwearpink https://www.instagram.com/p/CQJulc0L188/?utm_medium=tumblr

This is a touching and heartbreaking memoir about Ariel Levy and her childhood, her teenage years as well as her adulthood. It was indeed very interesting to read about her experiences. It is a story of self-discovery, self-awareness and being resilient throughout one's life despite the troubles and tribulations that may present in our lives. I somehow felt that the ending was muddled and chaotic compared to the preceding chapters which were full of emotions and intrigue. I love words and Ariel's use of intricate vocabulary really impressed me. This is a good memoir to relate to in today's times when we are all control freaks and want to maintain control over every aspect of our lives. Life is beyond our grasp and we need to be resilient in the face of adversity. All too often in life, the rules do not apply. An inspiring and heart-wrenching account of Ariel's life. #bookstagram #bookaddict #bookaddiction #booklove #booklover #booknerd #bookninja #bookdragon #booklioness #bookenchantress #booklady #bookboss #bookmama #bookboss #goodreads2018 #therulesdonotapply #ariellevy #memoirs #bibliophile (at Dar es Salaam, Tanzania) https://www.instagram.com/p/BnakM3BFzna/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=oufl00uauf6a
