ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR: The New York Times Book Review, NPR, The Washington Post, San Francisco Chronicle, Vulture, She Reads, Kirkus Reviews
Trip. My parents started using that word about a year ago—“one day, you’ll take a trip to be with us. Like an adventure.”
Javier Zamora’s adventure is a three-thousand-mile journey from his small town in El Salvador, through Guatemala and Mexico, and across the U.S. border. He will leave behind his beloved aunt and grandparents to reunite with a mother who left four years ago and a father he barely remembers. Traveling alone amid a group of strangers and a “coyote” hired to lead them to safety, Javier expects his trip to last two short weeks.
At nine years old, all Javier can imagine is rushing into his parents’ arms, snuggling in bed between them, and living under the same roof again. He cannot foresee the perilous boat trips, relentless desert treks, pointed guns, arrests and deceptions that await him; nor can he know that those two weeks will expand into two life-altering months alongside fellow migrants who will come to encircle him like an unexpected family.
A memoir as gripping as it is moving, Solito provides an immediate and intimate account not only of a treacherous and near-impossible journey, but also of the miraculous kindness and love delivered at the most unexpected moments. Solito is Javier Zamora’s story, but it’s also the story of millions of others who had no choice but to leave home.

Cursed for centuries to think and feel but never move, Griffin awakens in modern-day Chicago, where nothing makes sense and chivalry is apparently a crime. Between curious coworkers, suspicious cops, and his inconveniently mortal heart, Griffin must learn to survive the twenty-first century—and the woman who broke his curse.
As sparks fly and scandals mount, Emily wonders if a man from another time can fit into her life. Or if their love will crumble faster than a museum exhibit under Griffin’s armored elbow.

If he fails, the dead won’t stay dead—and the living won’t stand a chance.

He’s a vigilante serial killer. She might be worse.
Beck Wolffbrandt is chaos in human form, dangerous, unpredictable, and entirely off-limits. TK knows she should run. Instead, she’s drawn to him like a match to gasoline. His darkness calls to hers, stripping away reason until obsession feels a lot like love.

As bodies drop and secrets unravel, one truth burns brightest: love isn’t just dangerous, it’s deadly.
No Small Sin kicks off the Fate Trace series, a darkly funny, morally grey romantic thriller filled with spice, chaos, and very bad decisions.

About the book
After the near-extinction of humanity, a new kind of alien-human hybrid must come to terms with their identity—before their powers destroy what is left of humankind, in this thought-provoking science fiction novel from the New York Times bestselling author of Parable of The Sower.
Since a nuclear war decimated the human population, the remaining humans began to rebuild their future by interbreeding with an alien race—the Oankali—who saved them from near-certain extinction. The Oankalis' greatest skill lies in the species' ability to constantly adapt and evolve, a process that is guided by their third sex, the ooloi, who are able to read and mutate genetic code.
Now, for the first time in the humans' relationship with the Oankali, a human mother has given birth to an ooloi child: Jodahs. Throughout his childhood, Jodahs seemed to be a male human-alien hybrid. But when he reaches adolescence, Jodahs develops the ooloi abilities to shapeshift, manipulate DNA, cure and create disease, and more. Frightened and isolated, Jodahs must either come to terms with this new identity, learn to control new powers, and unite what's left of humankind—or become the biggest threat to their survival.
