Next to Last Stand by Craig Johnson

Ready Player Two by Ernest Cline

$28.99 Hardcover

Lovable schlub and O.A.S.I.S. savior Wade Watts returns in the sequel to the Sci-Fi smash hit Ready Player One.

$28.00 Hardcover

Transformed by the effects of a breathing session he participated in, James Nestor decided to focus on the power of correct breathing, specifically on how humanity has lost this knowledge over time. His hope is that the reader will be affected by the reawakening of this knowledge through breathing practice and insight, benefiting both both body and soul.


$45.00 Hardcover (Library of America #333)

This Library of America anthology explores the trajectory of African American storytelling from the late 1700s to the present day. As Editor Kevin Young notes, this anthology seeks to amend and expand the record of Black Literature, seeking to be as inclusive as possible while recognizing that the expansive depth of Black vernacular traditions cannot be summated in one anthology alone.


The Quiet Americans by Scott Anderson

$30.00 Hardcover

Scott Anderson digs deep into the archives, exploring the more hidden aspects of Cold War espionage and the darker activities of the CIA during the lengthy period of murky conflict pitting Communist Russia (and proxies) against the West. Focusing on four specific operatives, this is a fascinating dive into a conflict that ripples through geopolitics to this day.


Carry: A Memoir of Survival on Stolen Land by Toni Jensen $27.00 Hardcover

A memoir-in-essays, Carry is a brutal, soul-baring reflection on surviving as an Indigenous woman in America. The staggering volume of vitriol and violence experienced by Jensen, both blatant and veiled, is important for everyone to be aware of so that it can be combated.


Perestroika In Paris by Jane Smiley $26.95 Hardcover

An unexpected friendship between an escaped racehorse and a Parisian dog provides the foundation for Jane Smiley’s novel interpretation of the buddy-buddy adventure story. A witty take on the pursuit of freedom, Smiley’s work will have you smiling. The perfect escape for troubling times.


Memorial by Bryan Washington $27.00 Hardcover

Benson and Mike, a young couple living in Houston, know their relationship is ‘good’, but is that good enough? What exactly their relationship provides or signifies however, is harder to pin down. The debut novel from Bryan Washington is heartfelt, heartbreaking, and a refreshingly honest look at what we seek and find in our relationships.
