When two girls join forces to break up their best friends' toxic relationship, they start to fall for each other in this "simultaneously uplifting and unflinching" (Publishers Weekly, starred review) '90s romance from bestselling author Amber Smith and Sam Gellar, perfect for fans of She Gets the Girl.

Bird and Jessa don't have much in common. Bird is an aspiring poet, still finding herself after a transformative summer away at writing camp. Jessa lives for the discovery of new music, using it to block out the dysfunction waiting for her at home. They would never have crossed paths if it weren't for one shared problem: Their two best friends have started dating, and the relationship is threatening to ruin their senior year.

Tired of coming second to their friends' romance, the girls come to the only logical conclusion: they have to break up the new couple. But the more time Bird and Jessa spend scheming, the more they start to realize they might have more in common than they thought.

Set in the late '90s in a world full of turbulent change as much as possibility, Jessa and Bird relearn what it means to love themselves and receive love in return, and to dream for a future they never imagined.

The ghosts of Fear Street -- they'll haunt you forever!

Do you believe in ghosts? Don't say no until you take a walk down Fear Street. Past the woods -- where no birds sing. Past the lake -- where something lurks beneath the water. Past the cemetery -- where everyone is dying to meet you.

And take a peek in Sal's Five and Ten. He sells great stuff. Wes Parker bought a 3-D poster there. He spent hours trying to see the hidden picture. Then he wished he hadn't. Because the thing inside the poster saw Wes too. Now it wants out and it wants Wes.

A riveting chronicle of the battle for chess supremacy and the brilliant, eccentric, extremely online grandmasters changing an ancient game.

Every elite chess player dreams of becoming world champion, of wearing the wreath and going down in history. Yet for many of today's top grandmasters, that dream long seemed out of reach: Norwegian juggernaut Magnus Carlsen was just too good. So when Carlsen announced he wouldn't defend his world title for a fifth time, the rest of the best saw a chance finally to sit on the throne.

Interregnum follows these brilliant and often eccentric minds around the world as they vie to become world chess champion. It's a story of millennial greats whose time is running out. Of teenaged prodigies who refuse to wait their turn. Of triumph and heartbreak, aspiration and anxiety. Of an ancient sport experiencing a remarkable resurgence and of the extremely online enfants terribles changing the game.

Part sports chronicle, part paean, part character study, Interregnum offers something for both the chess-obsessed and the chess-curious as well as anyone who enjoys a riveting tale of struggle in sport or triumph of the intellect.

A young knight must survive on the wild borders of a kingdom when a gift from the king turns into a painful challenge in the debut fantasy novel from Jason Kingsley CBE, creator of Modern History TV.

A Gift - or a Burden?

A young knight, his head full of his grandfather's tales of chivalry and dragonslaying, single-handedly defeats the rebel Baron Reynald of Gorstone. The king rewards his courage with a fief of his own, but he must travel to the distant borderlands to claim it. Maybe it was not a gift after all?

Amid the harsh, unforgiving border country, the new Lord of Blackthorne struggles to rebuild a life from the ruins and forge key alliances. There are bandits in the strangely threatening woods, fierce sea tribes beyond the mountains, scant hope of help from the crown and strange powers in play.

As he and his people finally come to terms with rebuilding their lives, he receives a cryptic warning. A warlord is gathering outlaws to his banner in the west...

"Extraordinarily moving, exquisitely written, and socially revolutionary." --The Irish Times

"Ring of Salt is so vast and tender and urgent, it's almost like reading a novel. I couldn't put it down. I haven't cheered for a heroine like Betsy in ages." --Jen Hatmaker, author of Awake

For readers of Maggie Smith and Stephanie Land, an inspiring and lyrical memoir about a writer and mother who flees an abusive marriage and must learn to reclaim the story of her life through a search for home on Ireland's wild, western coast.

At twenty-four, Betsy Cornwell runs away to Ireland for a fresh start. Leaving behind a painful past, she chases her dream of becoming a novelist to the misty shores of the Aran Islands. There she meets a handsome and charming horse trainer, and her life takes on the glow of a fairy tale when they elope to Gretna Green.

Five years later, her happy ending has twisted into a nightmare. Betsy is trapped in an abusive marriage, isolated and afraid with a newborn baby. On her son's first birthday, she must flee home again, this time turning to the women around her--her local survivor support group, a trusted family friend, and an online Smith College alumnae network--for help she'd never known she could ask for.

After a brush with homelessness, she struggles to scrape together a living for herself and her son. On sleepless nights, she scrolls through real estate listings that might as well be castles in the air, and starts to foster an impossible dream: What if she could use her writing to buy a home, one that no one could take away from her and her baby? One that might become a haven, not just for her family, but other single parent artists and writers, too?

When she discovers a historic knitting factory and former cinema on Ireland's rugged Connemara coastline, left empty and crumbling for years, that precarious dream becomes her lifeline. Over the next two years she works to crowdfund the old knitting factory's purchase by sharing its story and her own, in candid posts that range from the unexpectedly steep learning curves she encounters with home renovations and internet dating, to her heartbreaking fight to keep custody of her son, with her growing online community. But as the deadline to buy nears, she realizes she will have to reckon with everything she believes about family, survival, and what happily-ever-after truly means for her dream to have any chance of coming true.

Ring of Salt combines a powerful and relatable narrative of survivorship and healing with lush writing about the windswept landscapes and rich mythology of rural Ireland to craft a real-world fairy tale about the ordinary, but no less life-changing, forms of magic we can all access: vulnerability, community, and the power of telling your own story.

The Midnight Library meets Romantic Comedy in this emotional, heartwarming debut novel where an engaged couple stumble upon a magical movie theater that plays formative memories from their lives, showing secrets they both have been keeping from each other.

At the end of a cobblestone alley, shrouded by fog and empty storefronts, lies a glittering magical cinema, with The Story of You presented on the marquee. Ellie and Drake, a newly engaged couple, stumble upon it while walking around their city late one night.

Ellie, a dreamer who has made a career of writing about nearly forgotten businesses, is immediately intrigued. Tickets in hand, they make their way into the deserted red-velvet auditorium and to their great surprise, see projected before them memories from their respective pasts.

Risk-averse Drake is reluctant when Ellie insists they return to the cinema, but he finally concedes. There's a moment she's haunted by from her past that she doesn't fully remember. If she could only watch what happened, then maybe she'd finally know she wasn't to blame. Meanwhile, Drake is concerned that Ellie will get the wrong idea about a past relationship from what she sees on the screen.

As their memories inch closer to the day they met, they realize they both have been keeping secrets from each other. With their wedding on the horizon, Ellie and Drake will be forced to answer: do you need to love who someone was, to love who they are now?

Brimming with nostalgia, heart, and a dash of magic, The Second Chance Cinema is both an enchanting escape and a thought-provoking examination of how our past shapes who we are.
