Everything to the sea : a novel /

Upano, Alicia,


"This is how the story goes: Jane will fall in love. And then all of this will vanish. Home for one final summer, Jane is working and saving cash for her senior year of college before she leaves her island town behind forever. At first, she doesn't remember Kenji, but he quickly becomes someone she can't forget: square jaw, a dimple in his cheek. A Hilo boy. To Kenji, she's Janie, nose perpetually buried in her old high school sketchbooks. Jane tells herself it's only a fling--one perfect, carefree summer, on her way to achieving her dream of becoming an architect and moving to the continent. Then a tsunami sweeps their families out to sea, and their all-consuming affair breaks with the weight of grief, pulling them in opposite directions. Kenji remains in Hawai'i, bound by duty to rebuild their hometown. Jane, shattered by the loss, follows her best friend to California. For seven years, an ocean lies between them, until Jane and Kenji meet on another coast... In prose that sparkles like sun on the water, Upano's debut novel tells the unforgettable story of two young people as they come of age, fall in love, forge new families, and try to find their way back together, again and again. Everything to the Sea is a moving portrait of our ability to overcome even the most devastating tragedies, when everything else is washed away."

A date with Death : a novel /

Creagh, Kelly,


When the Grim Reaper develops feelings for the children's librarian whose soul he is supposed to collect, he finds that with feelings comes something far worse than death--life. Helena Hart isn't having the best night. Her date just ditched her, her Halloween costume bombed, and her only sympathetic ear is a dead silent partygoer in a Grim Reaper get-up. But when she falls off a balcony and he catches her with a very real skeletal hand, she realizes he may not be a party guest at all. Before she can process the near-death experience, he vanishes, leaving her to wonder if she hallucinated the whole thing. Grim isn't supposed to save souls. He's supposed to reap them. And while he's not sure why he spared Helena, he does know that if his superiors find out, he's as good as dust--which is saying something for a guy who's mostly bones. But keeping away from Helena is proving harder than expected--especially when she isn't the least bit afraid of his monstrous form. Worse, to his horror, Helena makes him feel. And for a reaper, feeling is a fate far more dangerous than death.

As a Forest Service investigator, he's no stranger to rugged terrain or fighting for control. But nothing prepared him for Nova-her fire, her fight, the way she makes him feel something he thought was lost. The closer they get, the more dangerous things become. Someone doesn't want Nova to move on. And Kol is determined to stop them-no matter the cost. Because for the first time in forever, Nova's not just surviving. She's learning how to live, how to trust. And reminding Kol he can, too. But as darkness looms, the truth could end them both..." --

American alt : a true story of madness and friendship in a fractured country /

Lockhart, Chris, 1967-,


"A glimpse into the mind of an American conspiracy theorist, the schizophrenia, trauma, and misinformation that drove him to the brink, and the friendship that brought him back. On the eve of January 6, 2021, Michael Dodd and his three friends found themselves in a stolen vehicle on the grounds of the Washington State capitol, armed to the teeth, and ready to kidnap Governor Jay Inslee. Only there weren't actually three others in the car-Michael was alone. Months later, the violent plan thwarted, Michael sat in a psychiatric hospital and learned that he was struggling with undiagnosed schizophrenia and dissociative identity disorder. His knowledge of that fateful day was spotty, fractured by the different personality states he now knew were affecting his reality. Skeptical of a state mental health system, but anxious to find out how his world turned upside down, he reached out to his longtime friend, the author Chris Lockhart, for help. American Alt is the odyssey of two friends trying to piece together the fragments of Michael's shattered memory and uncover the truth of what pushed him to the edge. Set against the beautiful but economically broken region where both men rambled in their youth, Lockhart delivers a suspenseful, profoundly moving story of discovery and affirmation"

A life so true

Peterson, Tracie,


Includes an excerpt from Devoted to Love by the author. "Will their undeniable bond overcome the disasters surrounding them? Evelyn Turner is determined to work at her physician father's side as he opens a hospital for Minneapolis's poor. But when nursing makes her physically ill, she faces an impossible choice between the promises she's made and her own limitations. Maxwell Garrison is helping manage his father's investments through the financial crisis of 1893, and he's especially interested in their sawmill businesses. At a Turner family fund raiser, he is horrified when he overhears his father and other mill owners plotting to commit arson and insurance fraud. When Evie and Max meet at the same fund raiser, a connection sparks between them. As their interests in each other grow, they confide their secrets and agree to guard each other's trust. Then a suspicious and devastating fire sets Minneapolis ablaze, and Max and Evie fear the worst. Even amid the ashes of deception, can they build a life together?" --
