    Blissful Thinking - A Memoir of...

    Never give up, especially on yourself. 
    In L.L. Kirchner’s Pushcart-nominated memoir of “resistance and surrender… [the author’s] voice is humble and self-aware” (Kirkus Reviews) as she undertakes a desperate post-divorce search for nirvana, leaving behind university halls in the Persian Gulf for the streets of Manhattan and, ultimately, a sex cult in India. 
    Between the gym her family owned and the years she’d spent in substance abuse recovery, Kirchner believed she was grounded in all things wellness. But after a tumultuous year in Qatar, which included the discovery that she'd never have children, her husband demanded a divorce. Over the telephone. 
    Fearing a return to her substance use disorder, she tries to regain trust in the universe through yoga, meditation, chanting, boyfriends, more yoga… Each brings some relief, but her painful family dynamics remain unresolved. Until illness forces her to reckon with the gift her mother had always given her—hope. 
    In a memoir that’s both rapturous and page-turning, Kirchner captures the terrors and joys of searching for radical honesty — and a second date.

    After chasing a peaches and cream feral cat, with a mourning dove dangling from its mouth, through the yard, everything changes for Laura DiNunno. 
     
    Mourning the recent loss of her soul dog, and moving to upstate New York, she can’t seem to shake off the grief of pet loss and this little cat becomes a much-needed distraction. 
     
    What begins as innocently as throwing scraps of food out to a starving, and very pregnant, feral cat turns into feeding a small family of felines. But when tragedy strikes and two of the kittens die, the mother and her remaining babies are more vulnerable than ever. Now the broken-hearted human, who never cared for cats, finds herself in a “wild” relationship with them. 
     
    Filled with heart, and humor, this is the story of the ups and downs of a feral mom and her kittens, and the human they adopted, as they go from wild and struggling in an unforgiving landscape to mostly tame and living their best life inside.
