Time-traveling bounty hunters?
The Ballad of Smallhope and Pennyroyal
Sci-Fi · Historical Fantasy · Time Travel
Our take

Lady Amelia Smallhope believes every problem can be solved with a drink and a good think. Pennyroyal, her impossibly unflappable partner, believes there’s no such thing as a problem. Together, they’re the most notorious—and unconventional—time-traveling recovery agents in the business.
Rules? Optional. Expense accounts? Expendable. Bad guys? Consider them handled. Amelia and Pennyroyal have tackled every impossible job and come out victorious. But when a mission goes sideways, the timeline itself is at risk—and their greatest challenge yet may be keeping each other alive.
From the globally bestselling author of The Chronicles of St Mary’s, this fast-paced, laugh-out-loud adventure is packed with wicked villains, razor-sharp banter, and one very unexpected partnership. Buckle up—the timeline has no idea what’s coming.

“A tour de force.” —The Washington Post
In this poignant memoir, Charles Spencer—the 9th Earl Spencer and younger brother of the late Princess Diana—recounts the trauma of being sent away from home at age eight to attend boarding school.
A Very Private School offers a clear-eyed, first-hand account of a culture of cruelty at the school Charles Spencer attended in his youth and provides important insights into an antiquated boarding system. Drawing on the memories of many of his schoolboy contemporaries, as well as his own letters and diaries from the time, he reflects on the hopelessness and abandonment he felt at aged eight, viscerally describing the intense pain of homesickness and the appalling inescapability of it all. Exploring the long-lasting impact of his experiences, Spencer presents a candid reckoning with his past and a reclamation of his childhood. And now, in a new afterword, Spencer reflects on the aftermath of his memoir’s publication, including the outpouring of support and solidarity from fellow abuse survivors.

With or Without You
Biographies & Memoirs
Our take
Darkly hilarious and heartbreakingly real, With or Without You is Domenica Ruta’s unforgettable memoir of love, addiction, and escape. A New York Times bestseller named one of Entertainment Weekly’s Best Nonfiction Books of the Year (4.2 stars on Amazon), it’s The Glass Castle with more grit—and more swear words. Click to read the debut that lit the literary world on fire.
Choose your retailer
About the book
What do you do when your mom is your chaos and your compass? With or Without You is Domenica Ruta’s raw, wickedly funny memoir of growing up with a mother who taught her Scorsese before subtraction—and somehow, the importance of storytelling along the way.
Raised in a drug-fueled, debris-filled house north of Boston, Domenica navigated the blurred lines between love and manipulation, brilliance and dysfunction. Kathi, her unpredictable mother, could quote Sartre between drug deals and insisted The Godfather was a better teacher than school.
But this isn't just a tale of dysfunction—it’s about clawing your way out. Ruta doesn’t flinch from the darkness, including her own addictions, but she finds light in the rubble.
A memoir for fans of The Glass Castle, but with more F-bombs and fewer filters.

About the book
THE BASIS FOR SILO, NOW A #1 STREAMING SHOW ON APPLE TV
“One of dystopian fiction’s masterpieces alongside the likes of 1984 and Brave New World." — Daily Express
The first book in the acclaimed, New York Times best-selling trilogy, Wool is the story of mankind clawing for survival. The world outside has grown toxic, the view of it limited, talk of it forbidden. The remnants of humanity live underground in a single silo.
But there are always those who hope, who dream. These are the dangerous people, the residents who infect others with their optimism. Their punishment is simple. They are given the very thing they want: They are allowed to go outside.
After the previous sheriff leaves the silo in a terrifying ritual, Juliette, a mechanic from the down deep, is suddenly and inexplicably promoted to the head of law enforcement. With newfound power and with little regard for the customs she is supposed to abide, Juliette uncovers hints of a sinister conspiracy. Tugging this thread may uncover the truth . . . or it could kill every last human alive.

About the book
Caspien Deveraux was beautiful, magnetic, and absolutely lethal—the kind of man you hate for how much you want him.
He wasn’t born this way. He was shaped by cold hands and cruel intentions, a poisonous bloom disguised as something tender. From the moment they met, their connection was combustible: rage, desire, obsession—all tangled into something neither of them could escape.
She knew better. She saw the rot under the charm. But every time she pulled away, something darker pulled her back in.
Now, buried truths and old wounds are resurfacing, and love and loathing are bleeding into one.
Some hearts don’t break clean. Some men were never meant to be saved.
And some stories can only end in ruin—or something worse.
