“If you’re looking for a piece of horror media that looks a mental health with nuance (and still allows space for the supernatural), you’ll love Hello Sunshine. The story follows a group of friends who look for their missing friend. Also, there’s a cute dog.”

“With bright colors, silly pictures, and engaging text, “Take a Breath, Big Red Monster!” is an engaging story to help little ones learn useful skills for identifying, describing, and regulating anger. Social-Emotional learning doesn’t get much simpler than this!”

Take a Breath, Big Red Monster!

“This book does the Portal Book trope better than any I’ve read. Our main character is strong, smart, determined, and following along as she navigates her dangerous book world is a dream come true.”

“Lucy is the prime suspect in the murder of her best friend Savvy after being found covered in Savvy’s blood and no memory of that evening’s events. The story jumps back and forth between Lucy and the podcast narrator and will have you guessing what really happened that night until the end.”
Karen G.

“The Stand is a fantastic post-apocalyptic story that shows the battle between “good and bad.” It will have you wondering if your favorite characters are going to survive the story (and they may not). It is thrilling, intense, and a passionate story about humanity’s drive for survival. What does it mean to be “good” or “bad”? It is a long read, but I highly suggest taking the time to read the “Uncut” version.”

“What’s not to love in a well written celebrity tell all memoir? Lena has such a way with words, her writing style makes her stories come to life. What a great read for all lovers of celebrity gossip.”

“Cronenberg’s gorgeous and grotesque masterpiece is celebrating its 40th anniversary this year. It remains a pillar of the sci-fi/horror experience, and a gutting cinematic representation of the tragic narrative.”

“It’s a wonderful book for all ages to remind the reader that we all have special gifts and talents. One person’s unique talent might be big and colorful and hugely noticeable, while another person’s unique talent might be quiet and simple and not quite as noticeable YET both are valuable and important!”
