    My Diary of Failures: The 1980s and 1990s is a laugh-out-loud memoir that dives headfirst into the chaotic, awkward, and hilariously messy life of Kimberly Dennis. Growing up in Brooklyn during the 1980s, Kimberly navigates middle school embarrassments, disastrous family outings, and the relentless horrors of teenage fashion. By the 1990s, she's fumbling through early adulthood with a cocktail of bad decisions, failed jobs, and cringe-worthy dating misadventures—all while trying to figure out what it really means to be an adult. 
    With razor-sharp wit and unfiltered honesty, Kimberly turns her relentless string of failures into relatable, comedic triumphs. From triggering fire alarms in a college dorm to a Y2K party that ends in total disaster, her life is a series of "what not to do" moments that will leave you laughing, cringing, and rooting for her all at once. 
    This book is for anyone who's ever felt like they were one bad decision away from chaos—or who just needs a reminder that failure can be pretty damn funny.

    Many of us spend a great deal of our time dreaming about our next trip to the mountains, whether for a weekend getaway or our yearly vacation. We hear within that deep inexplicable pull toward the wilderness and would agree with John Muir, who said: "The mountains are calling and I must go." We sense that in the wild we are touching the edge of something that is both wonderful and mysterious. 
    In this book Erik Stensland, a professional landscape photographer based in Estes Park, Colorado, explores this longing we have for the wilderness and suggests that it is the trailhead for a journey to wholeness. Through short daily reflections on the natural world paired with his gorgeous photos from Rocky Mountain National Park, he encourages us to go deeper within ourselves and discover the healing that nature is offering.

    Geoffroy Delorme does not fit in the human world. As he gets older, he disappears into the woods at night, drawn to animal life. One night, an encounter with a deer changes his life: from then on, he knows he wants to live among them. 
     
     
     
    Delorme becomes a creature of the forest. He learns to live without a tent or sleeping bag and forage for food. He blends in with the deer and, slowly, they accept him. He witnesses their births and deaths, courtship and battles, ostracism and friendship over the cycles of their lives. Among the deer, he experiences the beauty, pain, fear, and joy of a life lived as a part of nature. 
     
     
     
    In his final year in the forest, Delorme meets a woman walking through the trees. He knows he can stay in the forest and die with his friends—or he can leave and speak their truth to a human world. 
     
     
     
    Deer Man is a moving story of what it's like to be an outsider and how forming connections with the natural world can help us feel less alone. A unique and powerful window into how far one human is willing to go to understand an animal, Deer Man asks us to never take for granted the flora and fauna of our world, and to work for their protection in whatever ways we can.
