Miss Memory Lane
“A brutally honest memoir that socks you in the gut with its candor” (Elton John and David Furnish) about lust, abuse, addiction, stardom, and redemption from Arrow and Teen Wolf actor Colton Haynes. In 2018, Colton Haynes woke up in a hospital. He’d had two seizures, lost vision in one eye, almost ruptured a kidney, and been put on an involuntary psychiatric hold. Not yet thirty, he knew he had to take stock of his life and make some serious changes if he wanted to see his next birthday. As he worked towards sobriety, Haynes allowed himself to become vulnerable for the first time and discovered profound self-awareness.

Seven years ago Liz lost her mother and ten years’ worth of memories. When she inherits the infamous Highwayman Inn, she hopes the move will be a fresh start. Then she meets Zachary.

Stories for Nighttime and Some for the Day
“This guy can write!” —Ray Bradbury Loory's collection of wry and witty, dark and perilous contemporary fables is populated by people-and monsters and trees and jocular octopi-who are united by twin motivations: fear and desire. In his singular universe, televisions talk (and sometimes sing), animals live in small apartments where their nephews visit from the sea, and men and women and boys and girls fall down wells and fly through space and find love on Ferris wheels. In a voice full of fable, myth, and dream, Stories for Nighttime and Some for the Day draws us into a world of delightfully wicked recognitions, and introduces us to a writer of uncommon talent and imagination. Contains 40 stories, including “The Duck,” “The Man and the Moose,” and “Death and the Fruits of the Tree,” as heard on NPR’s This American Life, “The Book,” as heard on Selected Shorts, and “The TV,” as published in The New Yorker.
The Flying Death
Samuel Hopkins Adams' mystery book "The Flying Death" was first released in 1908. The story takes place in the early 20th century, in the bustling metropolis of New York. The story follows a compelling tale that revolves around medical researcher Dr. Horace Byrd's search for a treatment for a fatal illness known as the "Blue Death." While the city struggles to contain the deadly and mysterious illness, Dr. Byrd is rushing to discover a cure. The book deftly combines detective work, suspense, and medical intrigue to keep readers on the edge of their seats. Adams examines the moral conundrums raised by medical research as well as the effects of unrestricted scientific experimentation throughout the narrative. In addition to being an exciting mystery, "The Flying Death" explores contemporary social and moral dilemmas. In order to craft a gripping story that both addresses the larger social issues of the early 20th century and holds the reader's interest, Adams deftly blends aspects of science, medicine, and detective fiction.
Sebastian Falls
A year after her parents' death, seventeen-year-old, Meadow Parker, is close to having a grave of her own. Beyond her shrink's false diagnosis of PTSD, there's no medical reason for her failing health. Only she knows the cause.

Once Meadow steps foot on the hallowed ground, she has a supernatural encounter that leaves her stricken with terror, but charged with power, fulfilling the legendary prophesy about the coming of The Keeper. Both the holy and the unholy have waited over a hundred years for a new Keeper to resurface. Like it or not, Meadow's destiny as Keeper is sealed, and the battle for her soul begins. A sharp double-edged sword, she will either save the world from Armageddon or fast track its annihilation.
