  1. 1. I Want To Burn This Place Down

    I Want to Burn This Place Down is a collection of personal essays in which Maris Kreizman traces her shift from a rule-following, institution-trusting life to a sharper critique of American systems. Through candid, often humorous reflections, she examines how promises of meritocracy and security fell short and considers what it means to respond politically and personally to a fractured country.

  2. 2. Slaughterhouse 90210

    A lively oral history made up of candid recollections from cast, writers, producers and crew of a hit 1990s teen drama, tracing its ascent from small-screen sensation to cultural touchstone while exposing behind-the-scenes tensions, romances, creative clashes and network pressures; the book examines how the show manufactured celebrities, tackled (and at times mishandled) topical issues, fostered intense fandom, and ultimately reflected and helped shape youth culture in the era.
