Moving back to her hometown, she leaves all that is urban and rediscovers what it means to be alive with a forgotten magic and a drizzle of hot, gooey murder mystery. Iris is done living a life where everyone else calls the shots. Giving her slimy-dog of a husband the axe, she packs up her potion shop and moves back home to the sleepy fairytale town of Slipper Creek. Magical makeovers and baby dragons are all part of the fun. But it's not all side-splitting good times. Back aches and acid reflux aren't her only midlife witchy worries. She’s stacked against a sentient long john bent on turning the town’s culinary tastes to the gourmet and a gun-turned cat who gives the new meaning to the term hair-trigger. When a murder is added to the cauldron and her drama queen sister is the number one suspect, things really start to bubble over. A rule (or ten) isn’t about to stop this 43-year-old from uncovering a scandal so delectable it gives devil’s food cake a run for its money. But it’s bubbles, bubbles, toil, and trouble, when Iris’ fritzing magic takes a turn nobody dreamed possible. (Can you say midlife magic dragon invasion?!) Juggling her newfound powers while wading through enough clues to make Miss Marple shake her head, the game takes a deadly turn. Now, it’s a race against time to stop the killer before her own death isn’t one by chocolate. The Makeover Tale of Cindy-Rela will Bibbidi Bobbidi Boom its way into your heart with laugh-out-loud action & adventure, a cozy family of unforgettable characters, and a mystery that keeps you guessing until the very end.

Fans of The Thing About Jellyfish and A Snicker of Magic will be swept away by Cindy Baldwin’s debut middle grade about a girl coming to terms with her mother’s mental illness. An Oregon Spirit Award Honor book. When twelve-year-old Della Kelly finds her mother furiously digging black seeds from a watermelon in the middle of the night and talking to people who aren't there, Della worries that it’s happening again—that the sickness that put her mama in the hospital four years ago is back. That her mama is going to be hospitalized for months like she was last time. With her daddy struggling to save the farm and her mama in denial about what’s happening, it’s up to Della to heal her mama for good. And she knows just how she’ll do it: with a jar of the Bee Lady’s magic honey, which has mended the wounds and woes of Maryville, North Carolina, for generations. But when the Bee Lady says that the solution might have less to do with fixing Mama’s brain and more to do with healing her own heart, Della must learn that love means accepting her mama just as she is.

Who speaks for China? Is it the old men of the politbureau or an activist like Wei Jingshsheng, who spent eighteen years in prison for writing a democratic manifesto? Is China’s future to be found amid the boisterous sleaze of an electoral campaign in Taiwan or in the maneuvers by which ordinary residents of Beijing quietly resist the authority of the state? These are among the questions that Ian Buruma poses in this enlightening and often moving tour of Chinese dissidence. Moving from the quarrelsome exile communities of the U. S. to Singapore and Hong Kong and from persecuted Christians to Internet “hacktivists,” Buruma captures an entire spectrum of opposition to the orthodoxies of the Communist Party. He explores its historical antecedents its conflicting notions of freedom and the paradoxical mix of courage and cussedness that inspires its members. Panoramic and intimate, disturbing and inspiring, Bad Elements is a profound meditation on the themes of national identity and political struggle.
