“Leavy, an acclaimed romance novelist, brings us a brave, emotionally charged, and deceptively subtle story about the intensity of love and the complexity of forging a new world for oneself. This is both a deeply beautiful love story for the ages and a smart exploration of what happens to our identities when ‘me’ becomes ‘we.’ I could not put this book down. The ending is everything.” —Jessica Smartt Gullion, author of October Birds

For fans of Sara Pennypacker’s Pax and Ali Benjamin’s The Thing About Jellyfish, Elephant Touch is a contemporary middle grade novel about overcoming grief that will touch the hearts of its readers.

“A tender-hearted story of loss and love. Quinn breaks the rules to save a baby elephant; can she do the same for herself?” —Kirby Larson, author of Newbery Honoree Hattie Big Sky

“Ms. Greenway’s debut novel is equal parts sorrow, joy, and wonder. A grieving girl develops a special bond with a young elephant as they both struggle with the loss of their mothers. A beautifully written novel that stayed with me long after the story ended!” —Dan Richards, author of Stu Truly and Stu Truly: First Kiss

Written for caregivers of parents and spouses, this funny but brutally honest collection of essays from award-winning author Eastman challenges the romanticized notion of caregiving, portraying it as an elegant conflict that reshapes family dynamics.

“A courageous memoir about the dark side of caregiving. As a psychotherapist who works with caregivers in the areas of cancer, neurological diseases, and dementia, this memoir is a reassuring read to anyone who has struggled with the complexities of caring for another human being. Eastman writes of the frustrations, the guilt, the exhaustion, and the difficulties of maintaining one’s own life as a caregiver, and brings attention to the serious issues of aging and eldercare in the United States.”—Cheryl Krauter, MFT, author of Surviving the Storm, Psychosocial Care of Cancer Survivors, and Odyssey of Ashes

Fans of the self-discovering journeys in Cheryl Strayed’s Wild and Andrew McCarthy’s The Longest Way Home will love diving into linguist Linda Murphy Marshall’s adventure-filled international journey as she overcomes her past to find her place in the world—all over the world.

“A fluent and far-ranging celebration of communication and world travel.” —Kirkus Reviews

“[Immersion’s] pages convey the tenacity and understanding that it takes to learn a language and understand its cultural context. . . . the book ably imparts a sense of the universality of the human condition, capturing feelings like grief and gratitude in time with Marshall’s poignant, ongoing search for her sense of self.” —Foreword Clarion Reviews
