  “If parenting mistakes earned reward points, I'd be flying business class by now.” 
  — Neha Jain 
   
  Motherhood didn't come with a manual. So Neha accidentally wrote one herself... a manual of 'what not to do', written through her own hilarious mistakes, heartfelt failures, and unforgettable "Oops!" moments. 
   
  In 'Oops, I Mommed!', she takes you on a funny, honest, and deeply relatable journey through the chaos of parenting, the burden of guilt, and the impossible pursuit of being the "perfect" parent. 
   
  Then life forced her to stop. 
   
  What began as a journey through motherhood became a journey of healing, growth, and rediscovering herself. The final chapters reveal the turning point that changed everything—and the lessons she wishes she had discovered much sooner. 
   
  Come for the laughs. Stay for the transformation. Leave with lessons that might just change the way you see yourself. 
   
  Whether you're a mom, have a mom, love a mom, or simply know one, this book is for you.

  "In The Storm" is LeMoyne's personal account of the aftermath of Hurricane Andrew in south Florida. The writer, with his wife, daughter, and sister-in-law, evacuated their apartment near downtown Miami and drove to a friend's concrete-block house about five miles inland. The worst of the storm struck just 10 miles farther south. In the end, Hurricane Andrew severely damaged 300 square miles, with about 100 square miles blasted or simply gone. Fifteen people were killed that night by the storm. This selection is part of the full length audiobook, "Storm: Stories of Survival From Land and Sea." 
   
  James Lemoyne is a writer and journalist. His work has appeared in many magazines, including The New Yorker. Foucheux’s acting career began in 1983. The Louisiana native hosted a local morning talk show before turning to writing and acting—he’d minored in theater at Nicholls State University—eventually winning a Helen Hayes Award for his performance in Edmond at Source Theatre.

  'Makes one of the iconic photographic images of Irish sporting history come alive' Paul Rouse
  In Mackey & Ring, Arthur James O'Dea vividly brings to life the compelling joint biography of two of hurling's most celebrated figures: Mick Mackey and Christy Ring. He looks beyond the legends to explore not only what they achieved on the field, but also how their reputations grew, endured and transformed over three decades, through retirement and even beyond death.
  From a time with little surviving footage, it is remarkable how firmly both men remain rooted in the collective GAA memory. Idolised without ever embracing celebrity, they lived ordinary lives that stood in quiet contrast to their extraordinary gifts. Yet they sparked devotion strong enough to draw spectators from across Munster and from much further beyond.
  Inspired by Justin Nelson's iconic 1957 photograph, this book uncovers the real men behind the myth: their triumphs, rivalries and complexities, alongside the cultural forces that elevated them to near-mythic status.
  Warm, insightful and richly drawn, Mackey & Ring explores where fact meets folklore and asks what happens when, in the telling, the legend becomes the legacy.

  Named a Most Anticipated Book of 2023 by The Millions 
   
   
   
  Leah Myers may be the last member of the Jamestown S'Klallam Tribe in her family line, due to her tribe's strict blood quantum laws. In this unflinching and intimate memoir, Myers excavates the stories of four generations of women in order to leave a record of her family. Beginning with her great-grandmother, the last full-blooded Native member in their lineage, she connects each woman with her totem to construct her family's totem pole: protective Bear, defiant Salmon, compassionate Hummingbird, and perched on top, Raven. 
   
   
   
  As she pieces together their stories, Myers weaves in tribal folktales, the history of the Native genocide, and Native mythology. She tells the larger story of how, as she puts it, her "culture is being bleached out," offering sharp vignettes of her own life between White and Native worlds: her naïve childhood love for Pocahontas, her struggles with the Klallam language, the violence she faced at the hands of a close White friend as a teenager. 
   
   
   
  Crisp and powerful, Thinning Blood is at once a bold reclamation of one woman's identity and a searingly honest meditation on heritage, family, and what it means to belong.
