About the book
Kalena is taken from her home, stripped of freedom, and declared a possession of the Empire. Bound to a dragon, she’s meant to serve in silence, another cog in the machine of conquest. But Kalena is not as obedient as they expect.
In a world designed to break her, she discovers unexpected strength—and a bond deeper than chains. What begins as survival becomes resistance, and what was meant to be servitude becomes defiance.
The Kalarthri is a tale of quiet courage and unyielding spirit, where friendship becomes family and power is claimed against impossible odds. For readers who have ever fought for their voice or loved in the face of fear, this story blazes with action, danger, and hope.

About the book
London, 1894. John Addington and Henry Ellis have never met, yet they share a dangerous ambition: to publish a book arguing that homosexuality—illegal and reviled—is a natural variation of love. Each man is married, each marriage unconventional, and each harbors forbidden attachments that threaten the fragile balance of their lives.
As they edge closer to publication, news breaks of Oscar Wilde’s arrest. Suddenly their project isn’t just radical, it’s perilous. To continue risks imprisonment, scandal, and the ruin of their families. To stop means betraying their ideals—and the possibility of a freer future.
Winner of the Orwell Prize and the Sunday Times Novel of the Year, Tom Crewe’s debut is a visceral, stirring portrait of love, courage, and the price of progress.

Best for readers who like celebrity memoirs grounded in small-town roots, family stories, film-career memories, and plainspoken reflection.
My Extraordinary Ordinary Life
Biographies & Memoirs
Our take
Called “a warm narrative” by Publishers Weekly, Sissy Spacek traces her life from an East Texas childhood to a Hollywood career while keeping family, home, and ordinary pleasures at the center. She shares behind-the-scenes memories, including Oscar night, with a 4.5-star rating from more than 300 Amazon reviewers. Best for readers who like celebrity memoirs grounded in small-town roots, family stories, film-career memories, and plainspoken reflection.
Choose your retailer
About the book
In her delightful and moving memoir, Sissy Spacek writes about her idyllic, barefoot childhood in a small East Texas town, with the clarity and wisdom that comes from never losing sight of her roots. Descended from industrious Czech immigrants and threadbare southern gentility, she grew up a tomboy, tagging along with two older brothers and absorbing grace and grit from her remarkable parents, who taught her that she could do anything. She also learned fearlessness in the wake of a family tragedy, the grief propelling her "like rocket fuel" to follow her dreams of becoming a performer.
With a keen sense of humor and a big-hearted voice, she describes how she arrived in New York City one star-struck summer as a seventeen-year-old carrying a suitcase and two guitars; and how she built a career that has spanned four decades with films such as Carrie, Coal Miner's Daughter, 3 Women, and The Help. She details working with some of the great directors of our time, including Terrence Malick, Robert Altman, David Lynch, and Brian De Palma-who thought of her as a no-talent set decorator until he cast her as the lead in Carrie. She also reveals why, at the height of her fame, she and her family moved away from Los Angeles to a farm in rural Virginia.
Whether she's describing the terrors and joys of raising two talented, independent daughters, taking readers behind the scenes on Oscar night, or meditating on the thrill of watching a pair of otters frolicking in her pond, Sissy Spacek's memoir is poignant and laugh-out-loud funny, plainspoken and utterly honest. My Extraordinary Ordinary Life is about what matters most: the exquisite worth of ordinary things, the simple pleasures of home and family, and the honest job of being right with the world. "If I get hit by a truck tomorrow," she writes, "I want to know I've returned my neighbor's cake pan."

A sudden absence reshapes the country and the people left behind.
Sky Full of Elephants
People of Color · Literary Fiction · Magical Realism
Our take
A sudden absence reshapes the country and the people left behind. Sky Full of Elephants follows Charlie Brunton as he answers a call from the daughter he has never known and journeys with her across a transformed America. As they confront trauma, identity, and inherited distance, the novel explores belonging and reconciliation through speculative fiction grounded in grief, connection, and hard-earned understanding.
Choose your retailer
About the book
In this “bold and imaginative” (Tananarive Due) “truly powerful and riveting story” (Booklist) set in a world where white people no longer exist, college professor Charlie Brunton receives a call from his estranged daughter Sidney, setting off a chain of events as they journey across a truly “post-racial” America in search of answers.
In a world without white people, what does it mean to be Black?
One day, a cataclysmic event occurs: all of the white people in America walk into the nearest body of water. A year later, Charlie Brunton is a Black man living in an entirely new world. Having served his time in prison for a wrongful conviction, he’s now a professor of electric and solar power systems at Howard University when he receives a call from someone he wasn’t even sure existed: his daughter Sidney, a nineteen-year-old left behind by her white mother and step-family.
Traumatized by the event, and terrified of the outside world, Sidney has spent a year in isolation in Wisconsin. Desperate for help, she turns to the father she never met, a man she has always resented. Sidney and Charlie meet for the first time as they embark on a journey across a truly “post-racial” America in search for answers. But neither of them are prepared for this new world and how they see themselves in it.
Heading south toward what is now called the Kingdom of Alabama, everything Charlie and Sidney thought they knew about themselves, and the world, will be turned upside down. Brimming with heart and humor, “this stunning allegory will spark much discussion” (Publishers Weekly, starred review) about the power of community and connection, about healing and self-actualization, and a reckoning with what it means to be Black in America, in both their world and ours.

As the team pries into the home’s bones, the past refuses to stay buried. Something angry lingers inside, growing bolder by the day. For Dahlia, it’s no longer just about salvage. It’s about survival. Cherie Priest’s The Family Plot delivers a chilling modern haunted-house tale.
