Happy #PubDay to WATER FINDS A WAY, Meghan Perry’s stirring debut novel.Deeply informed by its setting and sense of place, WATER FINDS A WAY is a lyrical yet unflinching account of trauma, redemption, and survival. Protagonist Blake Alvares has survived the unthinkable more than once: a childhood marked by vicious abuse, a terrifying teenage pregnancy, a twenty-year prison term. Following her release, she capitalizes on her single inheritance, a derelict cottage by the sea left to her by her deceased grandparents. Life in small-town northern Maine is harsh; her hard-laboring new neighbors struggle to stave off poverty, to stay off drugs, to stay in business. But this little community is also the only place Blake can ever recall feeling safe or loved. Meanwhile, as Blake sat behind bars, bereaved local lobsterman Leland was trying not to go all the way broke. In his desperation to support himself and nine-year-old Quinnie, Leland hires Blake to work on his boat despite his skepticism. Mutual suspicion gives way to mutual dependence. Blake and Leland have finally found anchors in their chaotic lives. But neither of the two, each haunted by their private history, has quite figured out how to outrun their demons. Danger soon beckons. Perry spotlights everyday people who find themselves left behind in a rapidly changing world; here she does justice to the rich complexity of their inner lives and the oft-overlooked regions from which they hail.“Full of grit and atmosphere, suspense and feeling—a powerful and promising debut.”—Kirkus Reviews, starred review ⭐️ ...

When police dismiss the death as accidental, Agnes takes on the scions and wannabes of New York society to unearth the truth of her friend’s demise. “Schultz lands some delightful jabs at Brooklyn’s self-appointed tastemakers, while never taking her eye off the clever fair-play mystery at the center of the action.

#OnShelvesNow: LEFT ADRIFT, historian Timothy Shenk’s timely analysis of contemporary liberal politics.Today’s political campaigns are miles from their predecessors. The cigar-chomping party bosses of yesteryear have been replaced by teams of pollsters, message gurus, and field operatives. Politics has gone high-tech, with experts using big data and sophisticated mathematical models to turn electioneering into a science. At the same time, parties on the left around the world are bleeding support with the working class, while rightwing populists are putting the future of democracy at risk. In LEFT ADRIFT, Shenk provides a searching account of how all of this came to pass. He follows the careers of two of the most significant Democratic political consultants of our time: Stan Greenberg and Doug Schoen, who led the transformation of the left over the last forty years, helping to elect Bill Clinton, Nelson Mandela, Tony Blair, and others. They also happened to loathe one another. Their seismic clash of political vision helps to explain how parties on the left around the world have picked up support with the wealthy and well-educated at the same time they have lost ground with so many of the people they claim to represent. Told through the lens of Greenberg and Schoen’s feud, LEFT ADRIFT provides a new perspective on the transformation of the left over the half century, offers a compelling way to digest the recent history of the Democratic party, and, on the eve of a major US election, looks towards its future.

Happy #PubDay to THE TRADE OFF, bestselling author Samantha Greene Woodruff’s second work of historical fiction!Inspired by the true story of a pioneering investment legend, THE TRADE OFF is a powerful novel about identity, sacrifice, family loyalties, and the complex morality of money. Woodruff introduces us to spitfire heroine Bea Abramowitz, an ambitious young woman in Manhattan in the roaring 20s—when plum jobs on Wall Street were occupied by men, and women had few options. Raised in a family of Jewish immigrants, Bea is a visionary math whiz with a knack for picking stocks who dreams of becoming a Wall Street broker but is resigned to a clerical position. When her twin brother Jake returns home after losing everything in a Ponzi scheme, Bea hatches a plan: he’ll take a job as a broker, and she’ll pick the stocks. Jake swiftly climbs the Wall Street ladder, pushing Bea to find bigger, flashier ideas—and leading to her first big mistake. As the end of the decade looms, Bea sees signs of the impending crash, and is forced to rely on her smarts to try to save her family.“THE TRADE OFF possesses all the literary goodies that historical-fiction lovers will devour: rags to riches, love, loss, redemption, and my personal fave—girl power, during a time when women had none…Woodruff takes us on a journey rich with history, female empowerment, and page-turning prose. A powerhouse of a novel, THE TRADE OFF is blue chip all the way.” —Lisa Barr, New York Times bestselling author of Woman On Fire ... See MoreSee Less

Happy #PubDay to HOW DO YOU FEEL, Dr. Jessi Gold’s search for humanity in medicine.Jessi Gold—a practicing psychiatrist, assistant professor, university wellness coordinator, and regular media commentator—was always on call. As a doctor, she was trained to serve, to put the needs of others before her own. When so many people—patients, colleagues, loved ones—needed her care, how could she say no to an extra therapy session, a corporate wellness talk, a favor for a friend? But after making a glaring error during a patient session, Gold reached a breaking point and was suddenly forced to reexamine her own life and reevaluate everything that the medical system had taught her. In HOW DO YOU FEEL?, Gold traces her own story alongside those of four of her healthcare worker patients as they deal with the unspoken mental and physical costs of caring for others. In a field that punishes its practitioners for showing empathy and vulnerability, these individuals—a thirty-something resident with OCD, a pregnant nurse suffering from PTSD, an aspiring medical student with crippling test anxiety, and an experienced ER physician who feels completely overwhelmed—found themselves, like Gold, abruptly adrift. Expertly weaving research with unforgettable stories and raw emotion, HOW DO YOU FEEL? demonstrates the unbridled capacity that we all have for adaptation, growth, and connection through even the darkest of times.“A psychiatrist shines a much-needed light on the mental health challenges that healthcare workers face. With clarity and compassion, Jessi Gold reveals how we can do a better job caring for caregivers.” —Adam Grant, PhD, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Hidden Potential and Think Again, and host of the podcast WorkLife ...
