  The Candle Maker's Secret: A Cozy Mystery of Wax, Wicks, and Wicked Deeds 🕯️🕵️‍♀️ 
  In the small town of Willow Creek, the aromatic workshop of the local candle maker was always a place of warmth and comfort—until its owner is found dead, surrounded by half-finished candles etched with mysterious symbols. Clara, her young apprentice, suddenly finds herself thrust into the heart of a mystery darker than any scented wax. 
  Determined to honor her mentor's memory, Clara uses her unique knowledge of fragrances, wax blends, and hidden symbolism to illuminate the truth. With the help of a charming antique dealer who knows more about the town's secrets than he lets on, she begins to piece together a trail of clues as delicate as candle smoke. 
  But each new discovery reveals that her mentor's death is tied to long-buried secrets that someone in their peaceful town is determined to keep extinguished. Clara soon learns that while some candles reveal truth, others hide it—and the killer is watching her every move, ready to snuff out any light that gets too close to the truth.

  Read This to Look Cool - Essays...

  This book won't fix you, but imagine how cool you'll look carrying it around . . . 
   
  Maeve Dunigan has poured a lifetime of effort into seeming effortlessly chill. The results have been . . . mixed. Nonetheless, Maeve still believes she's one pair of leather pants, one perfect use of the word "bespoke," and one jar of expensive olives away from self-actualization. She'll never stop trying, no matter how bespoke things get (was that right?). 
   
  With sharp wit and unflinching honesty, Maeve shares her own misadventures―like the time she quietly endured a ruptured appendix at McDonald's so she wouldn't come off as dramatic―and explores the universal desire to belong. She invites listeners into her world of One Direction fanfiction authorship and passive-aggressive yogurt mind games, detailing the anxieties that come with living in an age of constant visibility. 
   
  Both cringe-inducing and uproarious, Read This To Look Cool is a relatable meditation on the absurdity inherent in the constant performance of ourselves, offering a fresh perspective on self-love and the true meaning of cool. It's a book that says "I see you" and also "Don't look at me, though, my hair is doing something weird."
