Book excerpt: With its gripping companion novel, Replica, this remarkable novel by the author of Before I Fall and the Delirium trilogy asks how to be a human being, in a world where humanity cannot be taken for granted. In the world outside of the Haven Institute, the replicas Lyra and Caelum are finding it hard to be human—and Lyra, infected at Haven with a terrible disease, finds her symptoms are growing worse. But in trying to find a cure, they uncover a shocking connection to their past, even as their future seems in danger of collapsing. Gemma just wants to go back to her normal life after Haven. But soon, she learns that her powerful father has other plans for the replicas—unless she and her boyfriend Pete can stop him. Bestselling author Lauren Oliver brings the Replica duology to a shocking close in Ringer. Like Gemma and Lyra, you won’t be able to leave the world of Haven behind after you’ve turned the last page.

Book excerpt: A woman who wants nothing to do with love or friendship finds both in the unlikeliest ways in this hilarious and heartwarming debut by Kerry Rea. Once upon a time, Willa Callister was a successful blogger with a good credit score, actual hobbies, and legs that she shaved more than once a month. But after finding her fiancé in bed with her best friend, she now spends her days performing at children's birthday parties in a ball gown that makes her look like a walking bottle of Pepto Bismol. Willa dreams of starting fresh, where no one knows who she used to be, but first she needs to save up enough money to make it happen. Maisie Mitchell needs something too: another bridesmaid for her wedding. After a chance encounter at a coffee shop, Maisie offers to pay Willa to be in her bridal party. Willa wants nothing to do with weddings—or Maisie—but the money will give her the freedom to start the new life she so badly desires. Willa's bridesmaid duties thrust her into Maisie's high-energy world and into the path of hotshot doctor Liam Rafferty. But as Willa and Maisie form a real friendship, and Liam's annoyingly irresistible smile makes her reconsider her mantra that all men are trash, Willa's exit strategy becomes way more complicated. And when a secret from Maisie's past threatens to derail the wedding, Willa must consider whether friendship—and romance—are worth sticking around for.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ringer approaches womanhood from two directions: an examination of ways that women’s identities are tied to domestic spaces, like homes, cars, grocery stores, and daycare centers; and a consideration of physical, sexual, and political violence against women, both historically and in the present day. Lehmann’s poems look outward, and go beyond cataloguing trespasses against women by biting back against patriarchal systems of oppression, and against perpetrators of violence against women. Many poems in Ringer are ecopoetical, functioning in a “junk” or “sad” pastoral mode, inhabiting abandoned, forgotten, and sometimes impoverished landscapes of rural America.

Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The NBA according to The Sports Guy—now updated with fresh takes on LeBron, the Celtics, and more! Foreword by Malcom Gladwell • “The work of a true fan . . . it might just represent the next phase of sports commentary.”—The Atlantic Bill Simmons, the wildly opinionated and thoroughly entertaining basketball addict known to millions as ESPN’s The Sports Guy, has written the definitive book on the past, present, and future of the NBA. From the age-old question of who actually won the rivalry between Bill Russell and Wilt Chamberlain to the one about which team was truly the best of all time, Simmons opens—and then closes, once and for all—every major pro basketball debate. Then he takes it further by completely reevaluating not only how NBA Hall of Fame inductees should be chosen but how the institution must be reshaped from the ground up, the result being the Pyramid: Simmons’s one-of-a-kind five-level shrine to the ninety-six greatest players in the history of pro basketball. And ultimately he takes fans to the heart of it all, as he uses a conversation with one NBA great to uncover that coveted thing: The Secret of Basketball. Comprehensive, authoritative, controversial, hilarious, and impossible to put down (even for Celtic-haters), The Book of Basketball offers every hardwood fan a courtside seat beside the game’s finest, funniest, and fiercest chronicler.

Book excerpt: This the story of a beagle dog and his caring, loving friend and trainer. Ringer was an unwanted and ignored little puppy who was growing up with an unkind and abusive family until one day a lady took him away from that and brought him home to be with her family. It was difficult to get him to behave and respond to the kindness he was not used to, so the lady instructed her children to be very kind to him. She encouraged them to feed him so that he would trust her and her children. Over time this improved his acceptance of his new surroundings and he became responsive to everyones adoration. Eventually, the lady became interested in dog training believing that this would benefit both the lady and her dog. This later developed into a pastime that brought Ringer and his trainer to the world of Obedience training and competition. This story tells of that journey and of how the lady became aware of the methods of encouraging a discipline which allowed Ringer and herself to understand the commands and how she desired him to behave. The purpose of this story is about the ladies application of what she learned as it related to raising her children. How it calmed her children down allowing them to feel secure and loved even though they were being disciplined.

Book excerpt: An accident killed his dreams, she had to walk away from hers – together, can they forge a new one? After Tara Nelson's parents died, her grandmother hadn't hesitated to open her home – and her arms – to finish raising a heartbroken little girl. So, when a stroke left her confined to a wheelchair, Tara didn't have to think twice about putting her plans on hold to take care of her. It was a hard, often lonely life, and sometimes, she longed for someone special to share the burdens. Especially after falling into the arms of a strong, handsome bell ringer. His emotional wounds cut so deep, Shane Cavenaugh didn't think they'd ever heal. So the last thing he needed was a complication in his carefully planned, solitary life. But thanks to an icy parking lot on a cold November night, a complication is exactly what he got. Now, he can't get a kind-hearted cashier out of his mind. And he's not sure he wants to either. Can the wonder of the Christmas season light the way to a future filled with hope, happiness, and love for two lonely people? Welcome to Weko Harbor, a place where the friends you made when you were a kid are friends for a lifetime. And sometimes, they might be more than just a friend. If you love second chance, Christmas, and a sweet happily-ever-after, this clean and wholesome romance set in a small beach town might be just what you're looking for!
