    Freelance writer Sora Reid believes in inertia. She’s the odd one out in a family of go-getters, including her Japanese American mom, who hints about losing weight, and her almost-married sister, who needs Sora to get a date for the wedding, otherwise she’ll be dancing with her Scottish great-uncle Bob. For  
    Sora, the phrase “minimal input, minimal expectations” is a way of life. 
     
    The one thing that disrupts her inertia: an intense dislike for Valentine’s Day.  
     
    What is it with the commercial love machine? Why do we get our hopes up, when staying home with a package of bacon and a bottle of tequila is better? Sora’s been betrayed before, and her heart feels like Grandma Mitsuye’s antique Japanese ceramic bowl with its gold-filled cracks. 
     
    When her pledge to stay single inspires readers to #GoSolo, Sora wants to empower her followers. It shouldn’t be that hard, right? 
     
    Enter Jack Mann, a muscle-bound baker Sora hasn’t thought of since elementary school. When a run-in at the grocery store leads to instant attraction, Sora knows she has to shut it down. She can’t #GoSolo and get the guy. She can’t let down her readers. And relationships always end, so why should  
    Jack be different—even though he’s confounding her expectations of love? 
     
    Cheerfully irreverent, bitingly funny, and filled with romantic charm, The Second You’re Single is about navigating the most romantic month of the year, and how love always comes when you least expect it.

    Dogs Like Us

    People often chose a dog that resembles themselves, consciously or unconsciously.  Even scientific experiments have proved it. For example, you rarely find a Hell's Angel with a bichon frisé, or a sweet little old lady with a bulldog. A gentle quiet academic wouldn't normally chose a boisterous border collie, nor would an energetic teenager chose a basset hound.
    
    Our beloved dogs are rather like our choice of car or the clothes we wear. The science writer David Robson says, 'The canine mini-me reveals a narcissistic tendency in us all.'
    
    In these humorous, colourful illustrations of doppelgänger dogs, artist John Holder has depicted a superb, visually entertaining collection of dogs and their owners in all their lookalike glory. A treat for dog owners everywhere.

    WINNER OF THE AUSTRALIAN INDIE BOOK AWARD FOR NONFICTION 
    “Playful and poignant . . . will be enjoyed by readers of the best dog tales, such as The Art of Racing in the Rain, for its ability to evoke both the aggravation and deep love that dogs foster.”—BookPage 
    In this poignant, funny, and disarmingly honest memoir, one of the world’s most beloved storytellers, the number one New York Times bestselling author of The Book Thief, tells of his family’s adoption of three troublesome rescue dogs—a charming and courageous love story about making even the most incorrigible animals family. 
    There’s a madman dog beside me, and the hounds of memory ahead of us . . . It’s love and beasts and wild mistakes, and regret, but never to change things. 
    What happens when the Zusak family opens their home to three big, wild, street-hardened dogs—Reuben, more wolf than hound; Archer, blond, beautiful, destructive; and the rancorously smiling Frosty, who walks like a rolling thunderstorm? 
    The answer can only be chaos: There are street fights, park fights, public shamings, property damages, injuries, hospital visits, wellness checks, pure comedy, shocking tragedy, and carnage that must be read to be believed. 
    There is a reckoning of shortcomings and failure, a strengthening of will, but most important of all, an explosion of love—and the joy and recognition of family. 
    Three Wild Dogs (and the Truth) is a tender, motley, and exquisitely written memoir about the human need for both connection and disorder, a love letter to the animals who bring hilarity and beauty—but also the visceral truth of the natural world—straight to our doors and into our lives and change us forever.
