  Mary E. Mann does not flinch. In Little Brother, she leads us by the hand into a world where hunger is constant, sorrow is routine, and the arrival of a child is met with neither joy nor mourning—just another mouth, another burden, another resignation. Yet even in this bleakness, life goes on, in ways both unsettling and eerily familiar. A stark, unflinching glimpse into the realities of the forgotten, this story is as haunting as it is quietly devastating.

  In stirring verse and essays, Katy Bowser Hutson chronicles her battle with breast cancer and the complications of faith amid such a fight. Accentuated by the art of Jodi Hays, Katy's words lead us through the realization of cancer, the experience of chemotherapy and a mastectomy, relentless rounds of radiation, the uncertainty of ongoing treatment, and what comes after survival. She writes in resistance to sickness, of wrestling toward beauty:
  Cancer is an overgrowth, a kudzu:Tangling and strangling legitimate life.
  
  Chemo is a killing, a burning out:
  
  Burning down to ashy carbon, indiscriminately
  
  But cancer, did you know that I am a poet?
  Through it all, she shows what it means to struggle in a battered body and to pray to a God who is near to the broken. Join her in this consideration of mortality and witness her persisting trust in God's unseen ways.

  The Book Club Boyfriend Effect

  Marcus Reed

  The Book Club Boyfriend Effect is a sharp, warm exploration of how fictional love interests quietly shape our real expectations of romance. Starting from the familiar scene—a group of readers swooning, roasting, and dissecting the latest “book boyfriend”—it shows how those conversations become rehearsal spaces for our ideals, our secret fears, and the stories we tell about what we’d “never” tolerate. 
   The book unpacks how we co-create these perfect partners in our heads, then compare real people to carefully orchestrated character arcs, often without realizing it. At the same time, it argues that fiction can expand our sense of what’s possible: respect, consent, emotional literacy, and tenderness that we might never have seen modeled elsewhere. Instead of blaming books or glorifying fantasy, The Book Club Boyfriend Effect helps readers separate aesthetic tropes from non-negotiable values, use stories as mirrors rather than measuring sticks, and bring the best of their reading life back into their real relationships—with more honesty, less performance, and a lot more compassion for themselves.

  "Whether I shall turn out to be the hero of my own life, or whether that station will be held by anybody else, these pages must show."
  
  Follow the life of David Copperfield from his idyllic childhood in Blunderstone to the harsh realities of a London bottling factory and his eventual rise as a successful author. Dickens weaves a sprawling narrative of hardship and triumph, populated by a cast of characters so vivid they have become archetypes of the English language.
  
  A Tapestry of Human Experience: Experience the warmth of the Peggotty family living in their upturned boat-house on the Yarmouth sands, and endure the chilling cruelty of the stepfather, Mr. Murdstone. Witness the eternal optimism of the debt-ridden Mr. Micawber—always waiting for "something to turn up"—and the "umblemished" villainy of the "umble" Uriah Heep.
  
  The Personal Masterpiece: David Copperfield is Dickens at the height of his powers, blending humor, pathos, and social critique. It explores the complexities of marriage, the cruelty of child labor, and the importance of perseverance. More than a story of one man, it is a grand observation of the Victorian era, filled with the "discipline of the heart" that transforms a boy into a man of character.
  
  A journey of a thousand memories. Purchase "David Copperfield" today and discover the heart and soul of Dickensian literature.
