b'We\\u2019ve made many mistakes here at Lit & Liquor, some with liquor, and some with literature. We like to think you\\u2019re all out there learning from our humble mistakes, and if there\\u2019s one takeaway we\\u2019ve learned repeatedly over the last year, it\\u2019s this vital piece of information: DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES EVER STIR YOUR DRINKS.

Glad we got that out of the way, y\\u2019all. On to the good stuff: shots and books. We reach back to last October, when Ashley and Kassandra went to a small press and self-published book fair in Little Rock and picked up three gems to compare and contrast. Up first is Ashley\\u2019s pick, \\u201cLeast Likely to Marry a Millionaire\\u201d by Cheryl Harper. She\\u2019s paired it with a Glamour Shot that looks like a millionaire bucks, making this a match made in heaven.

Kassandra provides a solid middle choice with \\u201cTaking Flight\\u201d by Colleen Young. What could more appropriate than a Vodka Speculoos AKA a Biscoff cookie shot?

Bringing us up with a strong finish is Sam with \\u201cAssassins of History: Transference\\u201d by Vernon Dutton. This is paired with an Alien Brain Hemorrhage Shot that you SHOULD NOT I repeat DO NOT EVER stir before you drink.

You\\u2019ve been warned. Lean back, don\\u2019t stir your drinks, and enjoy!'
