About the book
In the 22nd century, augmented reality is no longer a novelty, but rather a way of life for citizens of Easton. Children are taught at a young age to control the ubiquitous layer of reality known as veneer through a process called reconciliation. Those who learn to reconcile live in a constant state of redefinition, of the world and of themselves. Those who struggle are forced to stand by and watch the world change without them.
For this skill, there are no shortcuts, no special glasses or handheld devices. The power to change comes from within.
Deron Bishop wants to live in the augmented world, to perform the magic of reconciliation like his peers, but controlling the veneer has always been a problem for him. Already resentful of the one thing he could never master, Deron doesn't realize how much he needs the veneer until a violent run-in with a childhood rival puts him in the hospital and robs him of his virtual sight.
Now able to see the world as it truly exists, Deron must choose to abandon Easton or fight his way back to the veneered fantasy of his previous life--a fight not everyone wants him to win.
Join Deron, his friends, and his enemies as they discover the truths that will be revealed when the virtual veil finally drops.

Our take
A quest shaped by honor grows more dangerous as loyalty is tested by deception and dark magic. Into the Thinking Kingdoms follows Etjole Ehomba and his companions as they cross hostile realms to rescue a captive Visioness from a necromancer’s grip.

About the book
From the New York Times–bestselling author of Carnivores of Light and Darkness comes the second fantasy adventure in the Journeys of the Catechist saga.
With his two companions—Simna ibn Sind the swordsman and the massive black cat Ahlitah—at his side, Etjole Ehomba continues his honor-driven quest to find the Visioness of Laconda. Imprisoned in the fortress of an evil necromancer, she is both her captor's obsession and his torment.
Seeking to cross the blighted Semordria Ocean, Etjole and his sidekicks find no one willing to risk its legendary monsters—until they meet a collector of rare animals. He points them to the northern realm of Hamacassar, and then drugs them in order to steal Ahlitah. Escaping the man's conjured assassins, the trio head to the Thinking Kingdoms, across snow-covered mountains to Laconda, with danger and dark magic nipping at their heels . . .
"Foster's latest series combines elements of epic fantasy with folkloric motifs in an engaging picaresque tale of a simple man's honor-bound journey into adventure." —Library Journal
"The story's swift pace and Foster's boundless imagination deliver something very different from the usual fantasy quest saga. In these magical lands, Foster shows that character and common sense can be as important, and as powerful, as any magic." —Publishers Weekly
"There's no doubt that Alan Dean Foster is a master storyteller. I finished Into the Thinking Kingdoms in a single sitting." —Black Gate
"Splendidly packed with illustrious incidents, not to mention a protagonist who grows steadily more intriguing and enigmatic." —Kirkus Reviews

Fallen Out
Mystery
Our take
A quiet escape to warm water and open horizons collapses when danger follows a man who thought he left violence behind. In Fallen Out, former Marine Jesse McDermitt heads to the Florida Keys seeking simplicity, only to confront hurricanes, criminal networks, and threats rising from land and sea. This action-driven Caribbean adventure centers on survival instincts, moral resolve, and the cost of stepping back into conflict.
Choose your retailer
About the book
When Jesse McDermitt leaves the Marine Corps, he has no plans in place for the rest of his life. His greatest skill is neutralizing the enemy from up to a mile away, but there are few opportunities in the civilian world for a warrior. He just doesn't want to spend the coming winter wearing a heavy coat and boots.
Jesse knows his way around boats and has an old friend in the Florida Keys, living day to day in paradise. Being an experienced diver and angler, Jesse immediately heads south toward the end of the road in Key West, a long dormant dream in his thoughts.
With the help of friends, new and old, and a bulging bank account, Jesse finds just the right boat to not only live on, but soon uses to start a “very part-time” charter business. Things go smoothly until a barefoot Carolina girl, a Cat-5 hurricane, and a human trafficker all conspire against him at the same time.
Danger lurks in the sparkling waters off the sleepy little town of Marathon, in the heart of the Florida Keys, as well as in the dark, murky waters of the Everglades. But danger doesn't expect to run into someone like Jesse McDermitt—a man who will not only respond swiftly in facing it, but with overwhelming force.

About the book
WINNER OF THE LAMBDA LITERARY AWARD FOR LGBTQ+ ROMANCE
A NEW YORK TIMES NOTABLE BOOK • A USA TODAY BESTSELLER • From the acclaimed author of Chef's Kiss, a groundbreaking trans Regency romance that's both delightfully witty and refreshingly iconoclastic.
“A Gentleman’s Gentleman is a thoroughly charming confection of a romance. If you’re looking for a tender, gentle slow burn, this is the book for you.” —Cat Sebastian, author of We Could Be So Good
The notoriously eccentric Lord Christopher Eden is a “man of unusual make” and even more unusual habits: he prefers to live far from the prying eyes and ears of the ton, and would rather have the comfortable company of his childhood cook and his aged butler than the swarm of servants and hangers-on befitting a man of his station. But Christopher’s pleasant, if occasionally lonely life is upended when he receives word from his lawyers that, according to his late father’s will, he must find a wife by the end of the Season if he intends to keep his family’s fortune and the Eden estate. Christopher cannot imagine a worse fate: as he isn’t attracted to women, his chances of making a wife happy are slim. Furthermore, if his quest to marry has any hope of succeeding, he must move to London posthaste and acquire some more suitable staff.
Enter James Harding, Christopher’s new, distractingly handsome—if rigidly traditional—valet. After a rocky start, the two strike up a fragile friendship amid the throes of the London Season . . . a friendship that threatens to shatter under the looming shadow of Christopher’s impending nuptials—and the secrets both men are keeping. With its heady combination of dry wit, slow-burn romance, and a nuanced portrait of trans identity, A Gentleman’s Gentleman stands to transform the historical romance genre as we know it.

Seven strangers wake up after the end of the world and realize the apocalypse has left behind more questions than corpses.
The Apocalypse Seven
Dystopian · Sci-Fi · First Contact · Time Travel
Our take
Seven strangers wake up after the end of the world and realize the apocalypse has left behind more questions than corpses. With entire populations gone, weather gone feral, and the world turning weirder by the hour, this ragtag group has no choice but to start hunting for answers. The Apocalypse Seven mixes post-apocalyptic mystery, offbeat humor, and found-family into a story that feels equal parts cozy and deeply strange.
Choose your retailer
About the book
Seven strangers attempt to figure out how they missed the end of the world in this cozy apocalypse story by the author of The Spaceship Next Door.
"Doucette's seven aren't just magnificent—they're also entertaining as hell." —Scott Sigler, New York Times–bestselling author of the Infected trilogy
This is the world ends, not with a bang, but a whatever . . .
The whateverpocalypse. That's what Touré, a twenty-something Cambridge coder, calls it after waking up one morning to find himself seemingly the only person left in the city. Once he finds Robbie and Carol, two equally disoriented Harvard freshmen, he realizes he isn't alone, but the name sticks: Whateverpocalypse. But it doesn't explain where everyone went. It doesn't explain how the city became overgrown with vegetation in the space of a night. Or how wild animals with no fear of humans came to roam the streets.
Add freakish weather to the mix, swings of temperature that spawn tornadoes one minute and snowstorms the next, and it seems things can't get much weirder. Yet even as a handful of new survivors appear—Paul, a preacher as quick with a gun as a Bible verse; Win, a young professional with a horse; Bethany, a thirteen-year-old juvenile delinquent; and Ananda, an MIT astrophysics adjunct—life in Cambridge, Massachusetts gets stranger and stranger.
The self-styled Apocalypse Seven are tired of questions with no answers. Tired of being hunted by things seen and unseen. Now, armed with curiosity, desperation, a shotgun, and a bow, they become the hunters. And that's when things truly get weird.
"The adventure I've been looking for! Never once did I know what to expect, and I loved being proved wrong at every turn. Far more mind-bending than a book this fun has any right to be." —Zack Jordan, author of The Last Human
"[A] riveting postapocalyptic outing. . . . Doucette's vibrant prose and unique premise make for an enticing adventure." —Publishers Weekly

Excess and ambition collide when creative success accelerates faster than control.
Slash
Biographies & Memoirs
Our take
Excess and ambition collide when creative success accelerates faster than control. Slash traces the guitarist’s rise inside a band that reshaped rock culture while unraveling under fame, addiction, and internal fracture. This music memoir examines artistry forged in chaos, the personal cost of relentless touring, and the thin line between creative freedom and self-destruction, told from the perspective of someone who survived both.
Choose your retailer
About the book
From one of the greatest rock guitarists of our era comes a memoir that redefines sex, drugs, and rock 'n' roll.
For the first time ever, Slash tells the tale that has yet to be told from the inside: how the legendary band Guns N' Roses came together, how they wrote the music that defined an era, how they survived insane, never-ending tours, how they survived themselves, and, ultimately, how it all fell apart. Slash is a window into the world of the notoriously private guitarist and a front seat on the roller-coaster ride that was one of history's greatest rock 'n' roll machines, always on the edge of self-destruction, even at the pinnacle of its success. Slash is everything Slash is: funny, honest, ingenious, inspiring, jaw-dropping . . . and, in a word, excessive.

Our take
An isolated village keeps its doors locked at sundown, bound together by silence and fear. In The Creeper, historians Ben and Chloe arrive to document a place with no recorded past, only superstition and watchful locals. As a nameless presence draws closer each night, belief becomes a dangerous act. This atmospheric horror leans on folklore, dread, and the slow realization that some stories survive because they must.

Our take
A woman determined to avoid hockey finds her carefully drawn boundaries tested by the quiet pull of an unexpected connection.

About the book
My requirements for a man are simple. Must love books. Must NOT love hockey.
Which is why I will never be interested in my neighbor, the aloof and mysterious Felix Jamison, no matter how many books I see him hauling into his apartment. Unless he loses his pro hockey skates, I’m out.
But then he shows up at my symphony concert.
And I catch the sweet strains of Beethoven floating across the hall.
Have I mentioned how incredible he looks in his game day suit?
Still, my history with hockey is complicated. My older brother played, and let’s just say he stole enough limelight to land a plane at midnight. I was forced to be a part of that world for so long, now that I have a choice, it’s the last thing I want.
But something tells me Felix is about to change my mind…
Absolutely Not in Love is a closed-door hockey romcom with neighbor vibes between a bookish hockey goalie and a classical cellist, some forced proximity, and all the swoony chemistry!
Books in the Appies Hockey Romance series stand alone and can be read in any order.
