Isabel and Rollo are back … but, who’s in the doghouse now? Isabel’s dog, Rollo — “the cutest, funniest puppy” — just doesn’t seem like himself lately.

Is there a cure for this? Has Isabel created a monster?! Kids won’t be able to look away!

Life is all about choices. The ones you get to make and the ones you dont. You can choose the friends you have and the people you want to employ. You can choose your battles but you cant always choose your enemies. You can choose your goals and your dreams although these things dont always choose you. You can choose what you want to eat and where you want to shop. There is however, three choices you cant make. You cant choose who you fall in love with or who falls in love with you. You also cant choose your family.How well do you know your closest friends or people you choose to have in your life? Your lovers? Your own family? The people who claim to be your friends? Even the people youve just met? Would you do to them what they would try to do to you? Would you try to take their boyfriends? Or would you simply talk about them behind their back? Theres a token few who are loyal in that world. What will your friends do for you when the chips are down? This is where Lexi lives, right in the middle of her chaotic events.

Just look at the chapter titles. That should be enough to want to know more. I would call this tale a twisted dark romance with a keen sense of humor. Something like a warped modern day Romeo and Juliet with all the modern problems. Sorry, no vampires here. Once you start reading you probably wont even miss them. There are plenty of bloodsuckers of a different kind. Careful, you might even learn something. If nothing else, youll get sucked into these colorful and sometimes unlikable peoples lives.

The book depicts how 13 members of five Jewish families survived the Holocaust through their own ingenuity and the generosity of a poor Catholic farm family. All 13 Jews ended up living in a 9?x12?x4? underground hole as World War II raged around them. Some lived underground for about seven months before being liberated by the Russian Army. Dr. Michael Berenbaum, project director of the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum (1988-1993) and author of The World Must Know: The History of the Holocaust as Told in the United States Memorial Holocaust Museum, says, ?Izzy's Fire is filled with the passion of one woman determined to do justice to the story of another woman who lived in hiding throughout the war years. The war has soul. One feels the intensity of the struggle to survive. One senses the decency of those who were ready to rescue and the evil that haunted a mother and father and their young child in the dangerous world they lived......

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER BONUS: This edition contains an excerpt from Jon Katz's Going Home. In his previous books, New York Times bestselling author Jon Katz introduced us to the delightful menagerie at Bedlam Farm, including Izzy, the unforgettable border collie rescue. Now, in Izzy & Lenore, Katz delves deeper into his connection with the beautiful, once-abandoned dog, learning yet again about the unexpected places animals can take us. Affectionate and intuitive, Izzy is unlike any dog Katz has encountered, and the two undertake a journey Katz could not have imagined without the arrival of a new companion: a spirited, bright-eyed black Labrador puppy named Lenore. As trained hospice volunteers visiting homes and nursing facilities in upstate New York, Katz and Izzy bring comfort and canine companionship to people who most need it. An eighty-year-old Alzheimer’s patient smiles for the first time in months when she feels Izzy’s soft fur. A retired logger joyfully remembers his own beloved dog when he sees Izzy. As Izzy bonds with patients and Katz focuses on their families, the author begins to come to terms with his own life, discovering dark realities he has never confronted. Meanwhile, Lenore–quickly dubbed the Hound of Love–arrives at Bedlam. Her genial personality and boundless capacity for affection steer Katz out of the shadows, rekindle his love of working with dogs, and restore his connection to the farm and the animals and people around him. Humorous and deeply moving, Izzy & Lenore is a story of a man confronting his past, embracing the blessings of his current life, and rediscovering the meaning of friendship, family, and faith. Katz shares an uplifting tale of love, compassion, and the rich and complex relationships between dogs and their humans.

- Featured in "Best YA of 2019" (Ginger Nuts of Horror, the UK's #1 Horror Review Site) - Winner of "2019 Indie Book Award" (Crossroad Reviews) - One of the "10 Best Books of 2019" (Inspired Chaos Books) Supernatural meets Mean Girls in this YA horror mystery for older teens. Sixteen-year-old Anna sees things from another world, the spiritual world, a skill that isn't exactly useful in high school. It's bad enough that her mother, possessed by a demon, took her own life when Anna was a child, a loss she remains tortured by. Now her father makes his living "clearing" haunted objects, and Anna's job as his assistant makes her a social misfit. Most kids in her suburban New Jersey town refer to her just as Goblin Girl. Only Freddy and Dor remain loyal friends. But Anna's so focused on her own problems, she's missed that her connection with Freddy is moving beyond the friend zone and that Dor is in crisis. As junior year approaches, a rare solar storm lights up the night skies and the citizens of Bloomtown begin to act strangely: Anna's teachers lash out, her best friends withdraw, and the school bullies go from mean to murderous. When Anna realizes she can harness this evil power, she sets out to save Bloomtown and the only family she has left. But to do so, she must keep her own increasingly dark urges at bay. *Trigger Warnings*: suicide (while possessed), suicide ideation, bullying, mental illness (hoarding), self-harm, pet harm, predatory and abusive adults in positions of power.
