A spoiled twentysomething in New York City must find a job or be forced to leave her friends and move in with her parents in this sassy series debut.

Meet Pia.

Sharing a brownstone in New York City with your best friends from college sounds like a dream come true, right? . . . Wrong. It’s a total freaking nightmare.

Meet the Brooklyn Girls.

Pia, Julia, Coco, Madeline, and Angie are starting adult life together. But only spoiled, sophisticated Pia gets fired after topless part pics appear on Facebook. (Oops.) Now she’s unemployed, unemployable, and broke—with a deadline. Get a job, or go live with her parents and leave New York forever.

Who knew adulthood would be so damn grown-up?

Pia takes on hipster bees, one-night stands, heartbreak, parental fury, wild parties, revenge, jail, loan sharks, playboys, karaoke, true love, and one adorable pink food truck, all in her quest to find out what she really wants in life—and how she’s going to get it.

Meanwhile, party-girl Angie’s redefining “crazy in love,” sweet Coco’s longtime love has finally made a move, shy Madeline has discovered her inner bitch, and CEO-in-training Julia wishes she could just go back to college, where life was simple.

Praise for Brooklyn Girls

“I tore through this hilarious book, laughing out loud and realizing more than once that my jaw had dropped open. Gemma has created a witty and wonderful world of surprising modern heroines.” —Joanna Goddard, A Cup of Jo

“Fast, fresh, and very funny . . . the ultimate page-turner for anyone trying to figure out what she wants in lie and how the hell she’s going to get it.” —Kim Gruenfelder, author of Wedding Fever and There’s Cake in My Future

(as of Nov 11, 2024 11:33:27 UTC – Details)



A dystopian future Earth is thrown into turmoil by the imminent arrival of extraterrestrials in this alien-contact novel by the author of The Forever War.

With The Coming, multiple Hugo and Nebula Award–winning science fiction Grand Master Joe Haldeman ingeniously combines a troubling dark vision of a dystopian near-future with an alien first-encounter tale as thrilling and thought-provoking as Carl Sagan’s Contact and Steven Spielberg’s Close Encounters of the Third Kind.
 
Despite technological advancements designed to alleviate the stress of everyday life, Earth at the midpoint of the twenty-first century is plagued by environmental crisis and manmade catastrophe. Tensions among the nations of Europe bring the threat of World War III closer by the hour as their lands are also ravaged by devastating climatic upheaval, the result of centuries of unchecked ozone depletion and global warming.
 
Meanwhile, in an America whose population has been sedated by DNA-specific drugs and virtual porn, homosexuality and free sexual expression have been outlawed by a repressive federal government led by an inept media-star president.
 
But everything changes on October 1, 2054, when Professor Aurora Bell, an astrophysicist at the University of Florida, picks up a message from deep space: “We’re coming . . .”
 
Ingeniously told from the viewpoints of a diverse cast of characters ranging from scientists, artists, and ordinary citizens to criminals, con men, and politicians, The Coming is a shockingly prescient work of speculative fiction from the multiple award-winning author of The Forever War and the acclaimed Worlds series, taking the alien invasion story to places it has never gone before.

From Kristin Hannah, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of the smash-hit novels Firefly Lane, The Nightingale, and The Four Winds comes a novel about how one reckless night destroys the lives of three teenagers and their families.

For eighteen years, Jude Farraday has put her children’s needs above her own, and it shows―her twins, Mia and Zach, are bright and happy teenagers. When Lexi Baill moves into their small, close-knit community, no one is more welcoming than Jude. Lexi, a former foster child with a dark past, quickly becomes Mia’s best friend. Then Zach falls in love with Lexi and the three become inseparable.

Jude does everything to keep her kids out of harm’s way. But senior year of high school tests them all. It’s a dangerous, explosive season of drinking, driving, parties, and kids who want to let loose. And then on a hot summer’s night, one bad decision is made. In the blink of an eye, the Farraday family will be torn apart and Lexi will lose everything. In the years that follow, each must face the consequences of that single night and find a way to forget…or the courage to forgive.

Vivid, universal, and emotionally complex, Night Road raises profound questions about motherhood, identity, love, and forgiveness. It is a luminous, heartbreaking novel that captures both the exquisite pain of loss and the stunning power of hope. This is Kristin Hannah at her very best, telling an unforgettable story about the longing for family, the resilience of the human heart, and the courage it takes to forgive the people we love.

“You cannot read Night Road and not be affected by the story and the characters. The total impact of the book will stay with you for days to come after it is finished.” ―The Huffington Post

‘This book is going to be one of my best reads this year’ Reader review⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

‘TREMENDOUS!!!! Who saw that ending coming?!’ Reader review⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Teenage girls can do some pretty awful things…

Lexie and Amber used to share everything, especially their dream of getting out of their small-town home. Born only ten months apart, they once thought they couldn’t be closer.

THEY WERE WRONG.

Fifteen years ago, Amber was brutally murdered in the woods, and Lexie’s high-school boyfriend was sentenced to death for her killing. Lexie is still stuck in the town she dreamed she’d leave, and everyone thinks she knew more about the night of the killing than she told.

PROBLEM IS, THEY’RE RIGHT.

Now the execution is just days away, and the town has breathed a sigh of relief. But old secrets are finally being uncovered, and it’s clear not everyone wants the truth to be told.

AND TIME IS RUNNING OUT…

NOAH WRIGHT

Thirteen years old, enjoys sports and video games and hanging out with friends. Doesn’t take life too seriously. A risk-taker with a very curious mind. Too bold for his own good, sometimes.

OAKLEY WRIGHT

Twelve years old, the little sister of Noah, who’s not so little at all. Studious and bright, likeable and warm. A thinker and a doer. Noah’s trusted pal, but sometimes, they have their differences, like all siblings.

ANDRE DEMARO

Thirteen years old, athletic and ambitious, but more cautious than his friends. Best friend to Noah. Wise, experienced, the one to question their decisions before they make a stupid mistake.

COOPER

Their small but trusty sidekick, a mixed-breed collie retriever who goes everywhere with them. Cooper is usually well-behaved, but don’t ask him not to chase a rabbit if one should run by.

#1 NATIONAL BESTSELLER NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER OPRAH’S BOOK CLUB PICK Born to an American myth and raised in the wilds of Graceland, Lisa Marie Presley tells her whole story for the first time in this raw, riveting, one-of-a-kind memoir faithfully completed by her daughter, Riley Keough.

In 2022, Lisa Marie Presley asked her daughter to help finally finish her long-gestating memoir.

A month later, Lisa Marie was dead, and the world would never know her story in her own words, never know the passionate, joyful, caring, and complicated woman that Riley loved and now grieved.

Riley got the tapes that her mother had recorded for the book, lay in her bed, and listened as Lisa Marie told story after story about smashing golf carts together in the yards of Graceland, about the unconditional love she felt from her father, about being upstairs, just the two of them. About getting dragged screaming out of the bathroom as she ran toward his body on the floor. About living in Los Angeles with her mother, getting sent to school after school, always kicked out, always in trouble. About her singular, lifelong relationship with Danny Keough, about being married to Michael Jackson, what they had in common. About motherhood. About deep addiction. About ever-present grief. Riley knew she had to fulfill her mother’s wish to reveal these memories, incandescent and painful, to the world.

To make her mother known.

This extraordinary book is written in both Lisa Marie’s and Riley’s voices, a mother and daughter communicating—from this world to the one beyond—as they try to heal each other. Profoundly moving and deeply revealing, From Here to the Great Unknown is a book like no other—the last words of the only child of an American icon.

Customers say

Readers find the book amazing, special, and mesmerizing. They describe the story as heartbreaking, touching, and universal. Readers also describe the book as interesting, compelling, and moving. They praise the writing quality as well-written, talented, and honest. Customers appreciate the realness and honesty of the memoir. They find the portrait of Lisa Marie Presley hauntingly beautiful, elegant, and eloquent.
