  • Sandwich & best selling author, Catherine Newman
    Jul 3 2025
    Sandwiched between two generations, this book takes you through a journey of love and family. We're so excited to feature the best selling novel, Sandwich, and author Catherine Newman for our July Book Club pick! About the book: For the past two decades, Rocky has looked forward to her family’s yearly escape to Cape Cod. Their humble beach-town rental has been the site of sweet memories, sunny days, great meals, and messes of all kinds: emotional, marital, and—thanks to the cottage’s ancient plumbing—septic too. This year’s vacation, with Rocky sandwiched between her half-grown kids and fully aging parents, promises to be just as delightful as summers past—except, perhaps, for Rocky’s hormonal bouts of rage and melancholy. (Hello, menopause!) Her body is changing—her life is, too. And then a chain of events sends Rocky into the past, reliving both the tenderness and sorrow of a handful of long-ago summers. It's one precious week: everything is in balance; everything is in flux. And when Rocky comes face to face with her family’s history and future, she is forced to accept that she can no longer hide her secrets from the people she loves.

  • The Phoenix Keeper & the Fiery Waters | with author Margarita Artista
    Jun 26 2025
    Get ready for emotional devastation with Book 2 of the Phoenix Keeper series, The Phoenix Keeper & the Fiery Waters. We had the pleasure of interviewing author Margarita Artista about the twists, turns and all the fun in her latest release. **About the book: Seraphine is as relentless as her radiance. She is reeling with delight from the recent success of finding the City of the Sun with Felix, her unlikely counterpart turned confidant. Convinced enough by her persistence and the hatching of his new Phoenix, Felix has dismissed his initial doubts to join her quest without complaint. Though as impossible as it had seemed, the two have peacefully united in their shared ambition to locate the remaining Sanctuary Phoenixes. But underneath the surface of their newfound friendship, a deeper intricacy is surging within both Seraphine and Felix. As they grapple with the sudden twists their relationship takes, the secrets and struggles Felix longs to keep to himself begin unravelling at the seams. Compiled with the vibrant and stressing nature of their next adventures, he finds himself drowning in his own burdens – and Seraphine is not remiss to the changes she notices in both him and herself. Now in vastly uncharted waters, Seraphine must balance the immensity of their mystic expeditions with the weight under which Felix is consciously being crushed. And while magic has made many things possible, she soon learns it cannot solve everything – especially a problem that isn’t her own. Ignited with a tasteful passion and layered with pensive vulnerability, The Phoenix Keeper and the Fiery Waters is the riveting second book in The Phoenix Keeper series.
