My hot best friend has no idea what he's doing to me. He sends me naughty texts at the most inappropriate times. He lets me fall asleep on top of him when we watch movies. And his protective side comes out if I dance too close to anyone at our favorite club. Correct me if I'm wrong, but those are things a boyfriend does. Except August isn't my boyfriend, he's my bestfriend, and those lines are drawn in permanent marker. The one time we tried to cross the boundary between friends and lovers, it failed so spectacularly that we never did it again. So ... "friends" is good enough. That's what I tell myself. Because at least I have him in my life. Without him, I'd be lost. But after we're dared to kiss, and that kiss reshapes reality, we agree to be friends who do things with each other. Nakey things. That makes my life so much better. And so much worse. After all, August doesn't want to settle down, and he never wants to get married. While I do. Most importantly, no matter how our relationship changes, he can't find out I'm desperately in love with him. Oblivious is a sweet and steamy contemporary m/m romance about best friends who don't know they're already dating. Noah and August are always touching, finish each other's sentences, and bristle whenever the other gets within six feet of a date, but they can't see what's crystal clear to everyone else. Oblivious features badly timed schmexy texts, a hot kiss that rocks two men's universes, and (unofficially, but likely) the highest number of heartfelt marriage proposals in a romance novel ever.

WELCOME TO JUNK FILM¿¿Entire libraries of criticism study good art. Who studies bad art?For the most part, bad movies have been buried by their creators, or have circulated in midnight screenings and Reddit threads. They've been used for humor by Mystery Science Theater 3000 and Red Letter Media, and presented as outrageous spectacle by critics and commentators. Rarely have bad movies been studied.JUNK FILM's thirteen essays explore the failures of specific works created between the 1940s and the 2010s. Each demonstrates a different kind of failure, from mixing incompatible genres (Cop Rock) to stacking a screenplay with sociopaths (Staying Alive). The book uses a few basic theses about bad film and television to unpack these failures. Importantly, it shows what students of film can learn from bad movies: how to make art that works via watching art that doesn't. Junk Film bridges film scholarship and pop culture criticism with wit and warmth.
