  In the four years since losing her wife Annie, Mo Reeves has let grief become her constant companion, watching her thriving career and relationships wither like autumn leaves. When her friends convince her to make a pilgrimage to Annie's beloved hiking trail in Redwood National Park, she agrees—if only to silence their worry. 
   
   
   
  Aspen Anderson knows every trail and tourist that passes through her small town, content to pour drinks by night and guide backpackers by day beneath the towering redwood canopy. But lately, the comfort of her predictable life feels more like a cage than a sanctuary. 
   
   
   
  When these two women collide, their chemistry defies explanation. After Mo reveals the true purpose of her visit, Aspen proposes an unconventional solution: a journey down Redwood Creek that promises Mo one last chance to connect with Annie's memory. But as they venture deeper into the wilderness, both women discover that the path to healing—and love—may lead somewhere entirely unexpected.

  Lil O'Brien accidentally outed herself to her parents at the age of nineteen when they overheard her talking to a friend about liking girls. Half an hour later she found herself on the side of the road, with instructions to come back and pick up her suitcase the next day. 
  What follows is a heartbreaking yet hugely funny story of a young Kiwi girl - the deputy head girl from a posh private school - coming to grips with her sexuality in the face of stark disapproval from her parents. 
  Bit by bit, Lil finds the inner strength to pull herself into an entirely new world. Along the way she's called out for looking too straight in a gay bar, tries to break in to the lesbian in-crowd and figures out how to send her internet lover back to America. She falls in lust over a knotted soccer shoelace, explores how the hell to have sex with a girl and dates four women at once - unsuccessfully. 
  Lil's story is an insightful and honest look at how you figure out whether you're gay, bi or whatever - and deal with what comes next. It's an essential read for anyone who's had to fight for who they are and what they believe in.

  The algorithm
  of my own life, faded
  and spidery,
  is written,
  not keyed in.
  From bombsites used as childhood playgrounds to lockdown FaceTime calls, Kate Foley looks back on almost nine decades of life – a life characterised by curiosity, resistance and a strong connection with the natural world.
  Appreciation and concern for the planet runs through this frank and moving collection, which muses on the notions of faith and belief, ultimately rejecting both Whitehall politics and traditional religion as inadequate to deal with environmental crisis.
  Simultaneously nostalgic and highly concerned with the future, Kate Foley's candid reminiscence and simple use of language draw us softly into consideration of life's big questions: What's it all for? How will we be remembered?
  Will it build again, our earth?

  When JUDAH MADDEN flees his tiny suffocating home town in New Zealand for the dream of international ballet stardom, he never intends coming back. Not to Painted Bay. Not to his family’s struggling mussel farm. Not to his jerk of a brother. Not with his entire life plan in shreds. And certainly not into the tempting arms of MORGAN WIPENE, the older, ruggedly handsome fisheries officer who seems determined to screw with Judah’s intention to wallow in peace.  
  But dreams are fickle things. Shatter them and it’s hard to pick up the pieces. Hard to believe. Hard to start again.  
  And the hardest thing of all? Finding the courage to trust in love and build a new dream where you least expected to find it.
