Noelle sat motionless in the street\, barely able to breathe. His little body was too still. Too broken.” \n\n\n\nNoelle’s world shattered that night\, like the pieces of headlights scattered across the dark street. There was no rebuilding her life around the grave of her child. \n\n\n\nAdrift in her grief\, Noelle finds herself drawn to an old house as rundown and weary as her spirit. She might not be able to mend her own brokenness\, but maybe she can restore this abandoned structure to its former beauty. Determined\, she throws herself into a renovation project with the unexpected help of a local. But she soon learns that her new home comes with a blood-stained history and a chilling reputation. \n\n\n\nWhen she stumbles across a diary written by a child with a disturbing life\, and a teenage girl vanishes from the village\, clues leave Noelle wondering if her house might somehow be connected. Someone — or something — wants her gone\, but she has no intention of leaving without discovering the truth. \n\n\n\nThis is a great opportunity to share your thoughts and connect with fellow book lovers.

If you haven’t already\, please complete the form and be sure to purchase your copy at Scholar & Scribe to read beforehand…and get 10% off when you do! \n\n\n\nFrom the New York Times bestselling author of The Sweetness of Water comes a gripping story about a brother and sister\, emancipated from slavery but still searching for true freedom\, and their odyssey across the deserts of Mexico to escape a former master still intent on their bondage. \n\n\n\nNew Orleans\, 1866. The Civil War might be over\, but formerly enslaved Coleman and June have yet to find the freedom they’ve been promised. Two years ago\, the siblings were separated when their old master\, Mr. Harper\, took June away to Mexico\, where he hoped to escape the new reality of the postbellum South. Coleman stayed behind in Louisiana to serve the Harper family\, clinging to the hope that one day June would return. \n\n\n\nWhen an unexpected letter from Mr. Harper arrives\, summoning Coleman to Mexico\, Coleman thinks that finally his prayers have been answered. What Coleman cannot know is the tangled truth of June’s tribulations under Mr. Harper out on the frontier. And when disaster strikes Coleman’s journey\, he is forced on the run with Mr. Harper’s daughter\, Florence. Together\, they venture into the Mexican desert to find June\, all the while evading two crooked brothers who’ll stop at nothing to capture Coleman and Florence and collect the money they’re owed. As Coleman and June separately navigate a perilous\, parched landscape\, the siblings learn quickly that freedom isn’t always given–sometimes\, it must be taken by force. \n\n\n\nAs in his New York Times bestselling debut The Sweetness of Water\, Nathan Harris delves into the critical years of the Civil War’s aftermath to deliver an intimate and epic tale of what freedom means in a society still determined to return its Black citizens to bondage. Populated with unforgettable characters\, Amity is a vital addition to the literature of emancipation. \n\n\n\nThis is a great opportunity to share your thoughts and connect with fellow book lovers.

And since the last three weeks of my life have been riddled with humbug-another breakup\, a broken toe\, an office promotion I deserved and didn’t get-I’m not at all in the mood to celebrate nor have the happ\, happ\, happiest Christmas EVER. \n\n\n\nWhen Mom insisted that we all gather at my Grandparent’s ancient cabin for an old school family Christmas\, I fully intended to get into the holiday spirit with the help of the three wise men\, Johnnie Walker\, Jack Daniels\, and Jim Beam. But those boys did absolutely nothing to offset the shock or temper the sting of seeing my EX on our doorstep the first day of our holiday soiree. \n\n\n\nApparently\, Santa missed the memo\, and this elf is pissed. \n\n\n\nStuck for a week with the man who obliterated my heart nearly two decades ago\, I did the only thing I could do and put on my game face\, thankful for the home advantage. \n\n\n\nI knew better than to drink that last cup of eggnog. \n\n\n\nI knew better than to get tongue tangled beneath the mistletoe with the only man to ever break my heart. \n\n\n\nI knew better than to sleep with Satan’s wingman on the eve of the Lord’s birthday. \n\n\n\nI could blame the nog. I could blame the deceitful light blue eyes\, thick\, angelic hair\, and panty evaporating smirk…but mostly\, I blame Eli because he always knew exactly which of my buttons to push. \n\n\n\nI foolishly thought a family Christmas filled with nostalgia was going to turn my inner Scrooge around\, but this year’s festivities went up in flames. Leave it to the ghost of my Christmas past to be the one to light the match. \n\n\n\nFa la la la la\, la FML. \n\n\n\nThis is a great opportunity to share your thoughts and connect with fellow book lovers.

If you haven’t already\, please complete the form and be sure to purchase your copy at Scholar & Scribe to read beforehand…and get 10% off when you do! \n\n\n\n“We saw the lightning and that was the guns; and then we heard the thunder and that was the big guns; and then we heard the rain falling and that was the blood falling; and when we came to get in the crops\, it was dead men that we reaped.” -Harriet Tubman \n\n\n\nIn five years\, Jesmyn Ward lost five young men in her life-to drugs\, accidents\, suicide\, and the bad luck that can follow people who live in poverty\, particularly black men. Dealing with these losses\, one after another\, made Jesmyn ask the question: Why? And as she began to write about the experience of living through all the dying\, she realized the truth-and it took her breath away. Her brother and her friends all died because of who they were and where they were from\, because they lived with a history of racism and economic struggle that fostered drug addiction and the dissolution of family and relationships. Jesmyn says the answer was so obvious she felt stupid for not seeing it. But it nagged at her until she knew she had to write about her community\, to write their stories and her own. \n\n\n\nJesmyn grew up in poverty in rural Mississippi. She writes powerfully about the pressures this brings\, on the men who can do no right and the women who stand in for family in a society where the men are often absent. She bravely tells her story\, revisiting the agonizing losses of her only brother and her friends. As the sole member of her family to leave home and pursue higher education\, she writes about this parallel American universe with the objectivity distance provides and the intimacy of utter familiarity. A brutal world rendered beautifully\, Jesmyn Ward’s memoir will sit comfortably alongside Edwidge Danticat’s Brother\, I’m Dying\, Tobias Wolff’s This Boy’s Life\, and Maya Angelou’s I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings. \n\n\n\nThis is a great opportunity to share your thoughts and connect with fellow book lovers.

At twenty-four\, she lives alone in a dinky apartment in her hometown of Mishawaka\, Indiana\, she’s just gotten a DWI\, and she works the same dead-end job she’s been working since high school\, a job she only has because her boss is a family friend and feels sorry for her. Everyone has felt sorry for her for the last seven years—since the day her older sister\, Kasey\, vanished without a trace. \n\n\n\nOn the night Kasey went missing\, her car was found over a hundred miles from home. The driver’s door was open and her purse was untouched in the seat next to it. The only real clue in her disappearance was Jules Connor\, another young woman from the same area who disappeared in the same way\, two weeks earlier. But with so little for the police to go on\, both cases eventually went cold. \n\n\n\nNic wants nothing more than to move on from her sister’s disappearance and the state it’s left her in. But then one day\, Jules’s sister\, Jenna Connor\, walks into Nic’s life and offers her something she hasn’t felt in a long time: hope. What follows is a gripping tale of two sisters who will do anything to find their missing halves\, even if it means destroying everything they’ve ever known. \n\n\n\nThis is a great opportunity to share your thoughts and connect with fellow book lovers.

If you haven’t already\, please complete the form and be sure to purchase your copy at Scholar & Scribe to read beforehand…and get 10% off when you do! \n\n\n\nIn this dazzlingly powerful story of family\, ambition and belonging\, one young woman’s obsessive quest to become the first Cherokee astronaut irrevocably alters the fates of the people she loves most. \n\n\n\nSteph Harper is on the run. She has been all her life\, ever since her mother drove five-year-old Steph and her younger sister through the night to Cherokee Nation\, a place they had never been\, but where she hoped they might finally belong. In response to the turmoil\, Steph sets her sights as far away from Oklahoma as she can get\, vowing that she will let nothing get in the way of pursuing the rigorous physical and academic training she knows she will need to be accepted by NASA\, and ultimately\, to go to the moon. \n\n\n\nSpanning three decades and several continents\, To the Moon and Back encompasses Steph’s turbulent journey\, along with the multifaceted and intertwined lives of the three women closest to her: her sister Kayla\, an artist who goes on to become an Indigenous social media influencer\, and whose determination to appear good takes her life to unexpected places; Steph’s college girlfriend Della Owens\, who strives to reclaim her identity as an adult after being removed from her Cherokee family through a challenge to the Indian Child Welfare Act; and Hannah\, Steph and Kayla’s mother\, who has held up her family’s tribal history as a beacon of inspiration to her children\, all the while keeping her own past a secret. \n\n\n\nIn Steph’s certainty that only her ambition can save her\, she will stretch her bonds with each of these women to the point of breaking\, at once betraying their love and generosity\, and forcing them to reconsider their own deepest desires in her shadow. Told through an intricately woven tapestry of narrative\, To the Moon and Back is an astounding and expansive novel of mothers and daughters\, love and sacrifice\, alienation and heartbreak\, terror and wonder. At its core\, it is the story of the extraordinary lengths to which one woman will go to find space for herself. \n\n\n\nThis is a great opportunity to share your thoughts and connect with fellow book lovers.

Starting your whole life over probably isn’t supposed to be. \n\n\n\nBut after breaking up with her longtime\, famous musician boyfriend\, hiding out in a small town in the mountains might be the perfect remedy for a broken heart. And checking out her landlord who lives across the driveway just might cure it\, too. \n\n\n\nOnly Tobias Rhodes didn’t rent out the apartment to her\, rather it was his teenage son\, Amos. Fiercely protective of his family and distrusting of strangers\, gruff and grumpy Rhodes initially keeps little miss sunshine Ora at a distance. But over days and weeks\, long hikes and fireside chats\, Aurora breaks down his walls and soon an unbreakable friendship blossoms into a once-in-a-lifetime love. \n\n\n\nThis is a great opportunity to share your thoughts and connect with fellow book lovers.

If you haven’t already\, please complete the form and be sure to purchase your copy at Scholar & Scribe to read beforehand…and get 10% off when you do! \n\n\n\nWINNER OF THE 2021 PULITZER PRIZE IN POETRY \n\n\n\nPostcolonial Love Poem is an anthem of desire against erasure. Natalie Diaz’s brilliant second collection demands that every body carried in its pages—bodies of language\, land\, rivers\, suffering brothers\, enemies\, and lovers—be touched and held as beloveds. Through these poems\, the wounds inflicted by America onto an indigenous people are allowed to bloom pleasure and tenderness: “Let me call my anxiety\, desire\, then. / Let me call it\, a garden.” In this new lyrical landscape\, the bodies of indigenous\, Latinx\, black\, and brown women are simultaneously the body politic and the body ecstatic. In claiming this autonomy of desire\, language is pushed to its dark edges\, the astonishing dunefields and forests where pleasure and love are both grief and joy\, violence and sensuality. \n\n\n\nDiaz defies the conditions from which she writes\, a nation whose creation predicated the diminishment and ultimate erasure of bodies like hers and the people she loves: “I am doing my best to not become a museum / of myself. I am doing my best to breathe in and out. // I am begging: Let me be lonely but not invisible.” Postcolonial Love Poem unravels notions of American goodness and creates something more powerful than hope—in it\, a future is built\, future being a matrix of the choices we make now\, and in these poems\, Diaz chooses love. \n\n\n\nThis is a great opportunity to share your thoughts and connect with fellow book lovers.
