THE NEW LIFE PLAYLIST is a quirky, contemporary romantic comedy set in the Pacific Northwest. It combines Nick Hornby’s passion for music and pop culture and Elinor Lipman’s romantic plotting. It runs 76,000 words. Matt Demetriou keeps striking out at love, so his big brother talks him into moving north and starting a whole new life . . . one that comes with a brand-new playlist. After a decade in San Diego, Matt’s new life in Portland gets off to a good start. He lands at a new job, makes amazing friends, and buys a piano that fits in his tiny apartment. But finding true love is still his long-term goal. After all, without the perfect romantic partner, even the sweetest music falls flat. Instead, he keeps meeting men who are crazy, controlling, or just plain weird. Then a mechanic shows up to fix Matt’s car—and while he sings off-key, he might just know the tune to open Matt’s heart.

Cotton-Patch Schoolhouse is a memoir of the author’s year as a young and inexperienced teacher in rural Marengo County, several miles from Linden, Alabama, in 1926. Seeking to earn money to continue college after her freshman year at Alabama College in Montevallo, the author welcomed the opportunity to teach eight children at five different grade levels in a one-room schoolhouse in the middle of a cotton field. Youthful enthusiasm, native wit, and a sense of adventure helped her transform the simple schoolhouse into a place of learning and excitement.

As if seventh grade isn't hard enough, Truth Trendon learns she has to wear a back brace to help her worsening scoliosis. She decides gravity is to blame for curving her spine and ruining her life. Thanks for nothing, Isaac Newton! Truth's brace is hard plastic, tight, and uncomfortable. She has to wear a t-shirt under it and bulky clothes over it, making her feel both sweaty and unfashionable. She's terrified that her classmates are going to find out about it. But it's hard keeping it a secret (especially when gym class is involved), and secrets quickly turn into lies. When Truth's crush entrusts her with a big secret of his own, it leads to even more lying. Add to that a fight with her best friend, a looming school-wide presentation, and mean rumors, and it's a recipe for disaster. As Truth navigates the ups and downs of middle school, can she learn to accept her true self, curvy spine and all?
