INTO THE BLUE

by Emma Brodie

Into the Blue is a five-star read! Spanning 15 years and set in the world of improv, theater and film, this is an epic love story told with heart, emotional depth, yearning, and a subtle touch of magical realism. I was hooked on AJ and Noah's story from the first page, and didn't want it to end. For fans of Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow, Me Before You, Rainbow Rowell, Emily Henry, The Visible Life of Addie LaRue, this is a must read!

THE ENDING WRITES ITSELF

This book is like a Knives Out movie in book form, featuring pointed satire and satisfying tropes. Anyone in the mood for a unique, cozy mystery should pick this one up!

NORTH OF ORDINARY

by Sue Aikens

If you have watched Life Below Zero on the National Geographic channel, then you know Sue

Aikens. But you really don’t know her until you read her story. Surviving alone 200 miles north of the Arctic Circle is nothing compared to the life she lived before she found her home in some of the most difficult geography in the world. I could not put this book down. Her straightforward, matter of fact delivery makes her life all the more incredible! If I listed everything she has survived, overcome, endured...you probably

wouldn’t believe me. A master class in positivity, being present and staying true to yourself.

On a quiet spring afternoon, an ordinary small-town post office becomes ground zero for a domestic dispute. A husband holds his terrified wife, and three others hostage. Each of the three hostages who walked into the post office that morning was carrying something that would profoundly change their life. This book shines a light on hope even in the darkest moments and the power of strangers to change each others lives.

THE LEFT AND THE LUCKY

by Willy Vlautin

Starred reviews everywhere for the latest from Willy Vlautin, the champion of the underdog. The story, set in Portland, gives us a glimpse into the lives of those dealt tough blows and how they manage day to day. A single mom and her two boys, a house painter and his crew, all trying to survive amidst trying circumstances. Such wonderfully written characters will have you laughing, break your heart and leave you feeling hopeful for the innate goodness of people. Loved!

EVERYBODY'S FLY

by Fredrick Brathwaite a.k.a. Fab 5 Freddy and Mark Rozzo

Fred Brathwaite a.k.a. Fab 5 Freddy was at the forefront of what we now know as hip-hop culture. He...was a graffiti artist in NYC, put Warhol’s Campbell Soup cans on subway cars, he and Jean-Michel Basquiat were friends and collaborators, played a critical role in establishing the term “hip-hop," has the most sampled riff/vocal of all time- “Ahhhhh, this stuff is really fresh” from his 1982 "Change the Beat," was the first host of “Yo! MTV Raps”...and the list goes on! Fab 5 Freddy is less than 6 degrees from just about everything and everyone associated with bringing hip-hop culture off the streets and into the galleries, music and media of popular culture. A great read!

MAD MABEL

by Sally Hepworth

(releases 4/21/2026)

Mabel is a “difficult to like” octogenarian. She lives alone on cul-de-sac with a colorful, somewhat quirky group of neighbors. The death of her elderly next door neighbor causes the police (and some of Mabel’s neighbors) to question Mabel’s role in his passing. The investigation makes public her “Mad Mabel”

past-her conviction of murder when she was a teenager. This time round Mabel decides to fight back against the public’s misrepresentations of her past and decides to participate in a podcast

telling her side of the story. A very satisfying read with plenty to keep you engaged.

STARSIDE

by Alex Aster

Starside may begin like others in the genre (after losing everything a young woman sets out on an impossible quest, seeking vengeance at all costs against powers beyond her grasp) but Aster's adult romantasy debut is unlike any other I've read. Aris's adventure sets out at a breakneck pace and doesn't let up. It's propulsive, dark, creative, and full of series foreshadowing that I look forward to dissecting as this series grows. Enjoy every page, and remember to come up for air!
