And will it ever recover? (Spoiler alert – it won't.)

The Jolliest Bunch - Unhinged...

Danny Pellegrino

The holidays are always merry, but the mishaps shine bright. 
 
For many families, the holiday season is—quite frankly—unhinged. Whether that involves inappropriately improvised monologues at the children’s Christmas pageant, gifts that land someone in the emergency room, or just sitting through the emotional rollercoaster of a Hallmark movie marathon,  
the holidays are a chaotic and magical time. And nobody knows this better than Danny Pellegrino. 
 
For Danny, the holidays are always accompanied by both merriment and mayhem.  
 
And like the gay Ghost of Christmas Past, he’s here to take you on a nostalgic trip through his most festive memories in a collection of stories that are heartfelt, hilarious, and (unfortunately) true.  
 
So grab your favorite winter beverage, snuggle up by the crackling fireplace, and turn up the holiday tunes from the pop diva of your choosing. The Jolliest Bunch is a healthy dose of holiday cheer to prepare you for the frenzied season ahead and remind you of the moments that make all the chaos worth it.

Me & Naughty Fridays - A Love...

Kerry Anne Boer

Me & Naughty Fridays is a heartwarming, hilarious, and occasionally chaotic celebration of sisterhood, salad, and the sacred art of showing up—preferably with wine. 
In this memoir-style collection of Friday night shenanigans, Kerry Anne Boer invites you into the kitchen, onto the couch, and sometimes under the table, where laughter echoes louder than logic and the tassie oak dining table bears witness to everything from meticulous Greek salads to impromptu dance-offs. 
Born from the beautiful mess of real life—raising kids, rescuing dogs, forgetting sports bras, and dealing with grief in unexpected ways—this is the story of four sisters navigating adulthood with wit, wine, and unwavering loyalty. 
Told through Kerry Anne’s signature blend of humor, heart, and honesty, Me & Naughty Fridays captures those sacred, slightly unruly moments when everything falls apart and comes together all at once. 
Because sometimes, healing happens between mouthfuls of tomato and white balsamic dressing… especially when you’ve forgotten dessert but remembered the wine. 
Perfect for readers who love: 
✔️ Real-life stories with soul and sass 
✔️ Found-family feels and sisterly chaos 
✔️ A good cry, a better laugh, and a bit of both at the same time

Gulliver's Travels into Several...

Jonathan Swift

Dive into the heart of satire with Jonathan Swift's Gulliver's Travels, a timeless masterpiece that has captivated readers for centuries. Beyond the surface of this enchanting tale of shipwrecks and fantastical realms lies a sharp critique of society, politics, and human nature. Through the extraordinary voyages of Lemuel Gulliver, Swift takes us on an adventure to the tiny world of Lilliput, the giant lands of Brobdingnag, and beyond, each a mirror reflecting the absurdities of our own world. 
Swift's brilliant satire has not only defined a genre but also influenced countless works of literature and philosophy. Gulliver's Travels is more than just an adventure story; it’s a profound commentary on the human condition, power, and pride, all delivered with Swift’s signature wit. This edition not only brings the classic tale to life but also includes critical essays that illuminate Swift's enduring relevance and the depth of his critique on the societal constructs of his time and ours. 
Whether you’re drawn to epic tales, intrigued by satire, or seeking insight into humanity's complexities, Gulliver's Travels is an unforgettable journey that promises to entertain, challenge, and provoke thought long after the final page is turned.
