Ferris Bueller...You're My Hero: The Story of the World's Most Famous Day Off
As featured in Entertainment Weekly, People, IndieWire, MovieMaker and more! Ferris Bueller...You're My Hero is the definitive behind-the-scenes look at one of the most beloved comedies of all time: Ferris Bueller's Day Off. Author Jason Klamm takes readers inside John Hughes' creative hot streak--fresh off Sixteen Candles and The Breakfast Club--as teen angst gave way to slapstick humor, surreal storytelling, and a hero who knew exactly where the camera was. As Ferris Bueller's Day Off celebrates its 40th anniversary, go behind the scenes as Hughes shot over a million feet of film before the movie was even halfway finished, navigated studio panic, and turned controlled chaos into cinematic magic. Built from 125 new, exclusive interviews, this all-access account features candid stories from Matthew Broderick, Alan Ruck, Cindy Pickett, James Hughes (John's son), producers, soundtrack musicians, parade attendees, museum staff, high-school actors--even the legendary school-bus Gummy Bear Girl ("They've been in my pocket. They're real warm and soft"). Additional Hughes alumni, including Jon Cryer and Andrew McCarthy, weigh in on the lasting impact of the film and its creator. Featuring never-before-seen photos and unforgettable on-set stories, this book reveals how Ferris Bueller's Day Off broke the rules, bent reality, and turned skipping school into a masterclass in rebellion for an entire generation.Sold out -
Eat (Like) the Rich: A Cookbook
You too can Eat (Like) the Rich with over 75 damn near perfect (and perfectly decadent) recipes from chef and creator Olivia Tiedemann. Olivia is not here to tell you her whole life story or share some cute memories of cooking in the kitchen with her mom. Sure, she'll give you some of that, but really, why would you be here for that anyway? You should be here to learn how to make some really good food. In Eat (Like) the Rich, Olivia lays down her kitchen commandments, the lessons she's learned from years working as a restaurant chef and private cook for high-end clients. She tells you which tools you need (she'd better not have to tell you why plastic is out) and what high-quality ingredients and brands are non-negotiable. Disagree with her recommendations? Well, too bad. Then she'll get into techniques like how to actually make a French omelet, how to make good whipped cream without killing your arms (hint: a blender), and how to make condiments you'll want to use instead of that crusty jar of mayo you've got in the back of the fridge. In case you wanted to know what some of these recipes are, there's:- Breakfast Quesadillas with Corn Salsa
- Psychosis Crab Cakes
- Steak Sandwiches with Peppers, Onions, and Provolone Whiz
- Summer Lobster Salad
- Nonna's Nightmare Short Rib Lasagna
- Not Your Grandma's Chicken Parm
- Seared Ribeye with Charred Scallion Chimichurri and Perfect Roasted Potatoes
- Pan-Seared Branzino with Brown Butter Parsnip Puree and Apple Pomegranate Vierge
And before you ask, there are four desserts. This is not a dessert book. There are other people for that. But seriously, these recipes will prepare you to cook like a private chef and Eat (Like) the Rich. Olivia shares these recipes and tips with you not to get a "yes, chef" but so you can learn how to make whatever you want, whenever. -

My Book of Days: A Memoir in Moments
A moving personal narrative from Grey's Anatomy and Euphoria star Eric Dane, on the most impactful days--past, present, and future--of his life. In 2006, Eric Dane guest starred on Grey's Anatomy as Dr. Mark "McSteamy" Sloan, a moment that would change his life. What was intended to be a one-time guest appearance, landed him a recurring role on the Emmy nominated show and would launch his acting career, leading to other roles in hit series like The Last Ship and Euphoria. Years later, Dane experienced another life-changing moment: being diagnosed with ALS. The sudden diagnosis caused him to slow down and reflect on the moments that had shaped him. In My Book of Days, Dane shares these reflections and invites readers to do the same with their lives. Told through a series of "days" that each illuminate a defining experience or emotional truth, My Book of Days captures everything from the grind of his early years in Hollywood and the hard-won peace of sobriety to the profound clarity that came with his ALS diagnosis. With his newfound perspective that our days are all we truly have, Dane reflects on the beauty and weight of each one--on the joy, the pain, the lessons, and the grace found in simply being present. Dane also looks beyond his lifetime to the "future days" that would come after he was gone--days meant for his daughters to read, to remember, and to carry forward. He leaves behind not just a record of his life, but a lasting guide to cherishing time itself: a reminder that while most of us don't think in days, we should, because each day is both a story and a gift. Poignant, vulnerable and deeply human, My Book of Days is a profound meditation on the passing of time and what matters most when you're looking at life through the lens of a terminal illness. -
Bromeliad House
Bromeliad House, once a sprawling heirloom estate on Florida's Treasure Coast, is now a crumbling relic of a family worn to its barest threads. Within its walls, Delphine began seeing the doppelgängers of loved ones before they died. A phenomenon known as a fetch.
Delphine Pembroke sees a fetch for the first time at ten years old in a mirror at her family's decaying subtropical estate. Soon after, she goes to live with her aunt and uncle and their two boys, who attempt to give her a normal life. Since childhood, she had witnessed the impending death of loved ones, creating a compulsion to never look in reflections. When Delphine becomes heir to Bromeliad House, she is ensnared in a sentient house desperate to keep her, and ghosts within set to keep her out.
As head architect on the property's renovation, Delphine battles both human and spectral foes, while falling in love with someone whose fetch she had seen years earlier. Someone who should be dead. Delphine must learn to manage her second sight. Even if each time she sets foot in Bromeliad House, she is pushed further towards the fate of her family members forever entombed within its reflections.
