    From PEN/America Award winner, 2021 Guggenheim fellow, and beloved literary and tarot icon Michelle Tea, the hilarious, powerfully written, taboo-breaking story of her journey to pregnancy and motherhood as a 40 year-old, queer, uninsured woman 
    Written in intimate, gleefully TMI prose, Knocking Myself Up is the irreverent account of Tea’s route to parenthood—with a group of ride-or-die friends, a generous drag queen, and a whole lot of can-do pluck. Along the way she falls in love with a wholesome genderqueer a decade her junior, attempts biohacking herself a baby with black market fertility meds (and magicking herself an offspring with witch-enchanted honey), learns her eggs are busted, and enters the Fertility Industrial Complex in order to carry her younger lover’s baby. 
    With the signature sharp wit and wild heart that have made her a favorite to so many readers, Tea guides us through the maze of medical procedures, frustrations and astonishments on the path to getting pregnant, wryly critiquing some of the systems that facilitate that choice (“a great, punk, daredevil thing to do”). In Knocking Myself Up, Tea has crafted a deeply entertaining and profound memoir, a testament to the power of love and family-making, however complex our lives may be, to transform and enrich us.

    BUD 
     
     
     
    I'm ready to open my flower shop Bud's Blooms and turn over a whole new petal. But when a new arrival in Mulligan's Mill—fancy French pastry chef Pascal Dupont—decides to open a new patisserie right next door, I find myself more than just a little distracted by the grumpy, gorgeous Parisian chef. 
     
     
     
    Maybe, with a little help from my friends, I'll get all the love advice I need to become the smooth, suave, sophisticated gentleman that Pascal might notice. 
     
     
     
    PASCAL 
     
     
     
    Sacre bleu! How the hell did I find myself in a place like Mulligan's Mill, a white-picket, tiny-minded, tin-can town that couldn't be further than my glittering, glamorous Paris if it tried? But there's a secret hiding somewhere in this small American town that will save my reputation and send my culinary career soaring. 
     
     
     
    What I wasn't expecting was the distraction of my hot, hunky, American neighbor. But I've been working so hard on my career, even I didn't know how much a man like Bud would make my heart bloom. 
     
     
     
    Now the question is, can I solve my mystery, save my career, and win the heart of my American-pie sweetheart without setting the temperature too high and burning my chances of finally finding true love?

    This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
    She’s Fine is a collection of short fiction that captures the inner lives of women navigating the complexities, contradictions, and quiet absurdities of contemporary life. 
    From navigating social expectations to managing the unseen pressures of modern adulthood, each short story offers a sharply observed, often darkly funny portrait of a woman holding it together—gracefully, strategically, and with just enough restraint to keep things civil. 
    These are stories about everyday moments and small personal reckonings: the polite conversations that conceal chaos, the subtle emotional calculations behind a simple “I’m fine,” and the quiet mental gymnastics required to stay composed in a world that rarely notices the effort. 
    Perfect for readers who enjoy smart, character-driven stories with wit, subtle satire, and a keen sense of emotional truth, She’s Fine is an honest, entertaining, and quietly defiant look at modern womanhood.
