Advance praise for Horse:&ldquo;[Brooks]&#160;demonstrates imaginative empathy [...] and provides some sardonic correctives to White cluelessness . . . Brooks skillfully [...] demonstrate[s] how the poison of racism lingers. Contemporary parallels are unmistakable . . . Strong storytelling in service of a stinging moral message.&rdquo;&#160;&mdash;Kirkus Reviews (starred)&#160;Praise for Geraldine Brooks: &ldquo;Brooks is a master at bringing the past alive . . . in [her]skillful hands the issues of the past echo our own deepest concerns: love and loss, drama and tragedy, chaos and brutality.&rdquo;&mdash;Alice Hoffman, The Washington Post&ldquo;[Brooks] makes a masterly case for the generative power of retelling . . . [her] real accomplishment is that she also enables readers to feel the spirit of the place.&rdquo;&mdash;The New York Times &ldquo;There&rsquo;s something bordering on the supernatural about Geraldine Brooks. She seems able to transport herself back to earlier time periods, to time travel. Sometimes, reading her work, she draws you so thoroughly into another era that you swear she&rsquo;s actually lived in it. With sensory acuity and a deep and complex understanding of emotional states, she conjures up the way we lived then . . . enrapturing.&rdquo;&mdash;The Boston Globe

Praise for Diamond and the Eye&ldquo;Mr. Lovesey excels at mixing character-driven humor with legitimate suspense.&rdquo;&mdash;The Wall Street Journal&ldquo;Longtime PI buffs will take a shine to the dodgy Getz&rsquo;s wannabe ambitions, and procedural buffs should enjoy how Diamond and company work the case. It&rsquo;s the mutual aggravation society of the two mismatched sleuths, however, that really has me itching for a rematch.&rdquo;&mdash;Kevin Burton Smith, Mystery Scene Magazine&ldquo;Lovesey writes [a] feel-good crime yet he never lets the comedy vitiate the mystery.&rdquo;&mdash;The Times Saturday Review&ldquo;Glory be! British crime novelist Lovesey is back, bringing along his beloved series hero, the grumpy, darkly funny, and&mdash;beneath it all&mdash;strictly business Peter Diamond, detective inspector with the Bath constabulary. It's all here: mystery, sparky writing, and a cast of characters who come alive on the page, moving through a tricky plot that we know is playing us for suckers.&rdquo;&mdash;Booklist, Starred Review&ldquo;The action builds to a Poirot-like solution.&rdquo;&shy;&mdash;Publishers Weekly&ldquo;Move over, Detective Superintendent Peter Diamond. The Avon and Somerset CID is about to be joined, jostled, and decentered by two other parties interested in an otherwise ordinary burglary.&rdquo;&mdash;Kirkus ReviewsPraise for the Peter Diamond Investigations &ldquo;Lovesey is careful to remind us that Bath holds hidden secrets behind its gracious Georgian architecture . . . Light and dark imagery is a fixture of Lovesey&rsquo;s Bath novels, in which life is lived on many levels, some in full sunshine and others buried in shadow.&rdquo; &mdash;The New York Times Book Review&ldquo;Mr. Lovesey, a veteran master of mayhem and misdirection, laces ominous suspense with wit.&rdquo; &mdash;The Wall Street Journal  &ldquo;Lovesey is the real deal.&rdquo; &mdash;Seattle Times&ldquo;[Lovesey] has created a brisk, colorful page-turner centered on murder and mayhem at the springtime half-marathon in the city of Bath.&rdquo; &mdash;The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette &ldquo;A particularly crafty resolution of the enigmatic mystery shows that this long-running series still has plenty of life.&rdquo; &mdash;Publishers Weekly, Starred Review

Diamond and the Eye

A YALSA nominee for Best Fiction for Young Adults "A bold coming-of-age piece that a lot of us, who have had to seamlessly merge two separate identities, can relate to.&rdquo;&#160;&ndash;Buzzfeed  &#160;"American Betiya is a celebration of feminist allyship. Thoughtful and compelling, it is also a valuable conversation starter about cultural identity amid the complexities of sex, love, and respect."&#160;--The Bulletin"Laser-focused prose will resonate with any teen reader who has been harassed for their brown skin, struggled with first love or borne the pressure of family expectations... impossible to read without tightness in your chest and your heart in your throat." &mdash;BookPage"Laced with poetic and rich writing, American&#160;Betiya candidly captures&#160;the heartbreaking impetuousness of that all-consuming first love, the tightrope we walk as we seek to navigate&#160;cultural tensions, and, most importantly, the risks we must take to spread our wings and find ourselves.&rdquo; &mdash;Gae Polisner, author of The Memory of Things&#160;&ldquo;I was immediately captivated by Rani&rsquo;s unique voice, and her raw sincerity kept me hooked through every step of her journey. This book is overflowing with honesty, and stunningly beautiful.&rdquo; &mdash;Akemi Dawn Bowman, award-winning author of Starfish"American Betiya is about Rani, an Indian American teen with a photographer&rsquo;s eye and dreams of medical school who experiences first love with a white American boy against her family&rsquo;s traditions. Beautifully written, this story tackles racism, identity, and learning what you really want.&rdquo;&#160;&ndash;Rajani LaRocca, author of Red, White, and Whole "American Betiya explores the passion of teen romance, the steady and supportive (but sometimes overpowering) outpouring of love from family and community, and above all, the importance of learning to take care of oneself. In Rani, Rajurkar paints a tender portrait of a South Asian teen who is navigating boundaries, experimenting with self-expression, and ultimately, garnering the strength to speak up for herself. This gentle story about self-care and self-discovery, lightly sprinkled with humor, will surely be enjoyed by many young readers." &mdash;Padma Venkatraman, Author of The Bridge Home, Winner of the Walter Award&#160;&ldquo;American Betiya is a brave, beautiful exploration of identity&mdash;those thrust upon us, and those we forge for ourselves.&rdquo; &mdash;Elana K. Arnold, award-winning author of What Girls Are Made Of"American Betiya thoughtfully examines cross-cultural boundaries, first love, the first steps of independence from family, and the power of art to transform and heal. I loved Rani's fierce, heartfelt, and beautifully told journey." &mdash;Kathleen Glasgow, New York Times bestselling author of Girl in Pieces"This is a book that doesn&rsquo;t shy away from risks taken, mistakes made, bridges crossed and broken, boundaries pushed and the understanding that comes from testing love and finding the places where it crumbles and where it holds." &mdash;Nandini Bajpai, author of A Match Made in Mehendi"A beautiful, nuanced exploration of self-actualization, love, sex, and the complicated intersection of all three. From its witty banter and feminist overtones to its portrayal of the dire consequences of gaslighting and cultural appropriation, I loved every minute of this exquisite story. I can&rsquo;t wait to read what Anuradha D. Rajurkar writes next!" &mdash;Nora Carpenter, award-winning author of The Edge of Anything"An eye-opening, edgy, emotional exploration of identity, love, family and clashing culture, American Betiya is an&#160;unputdownable&#160;must-read." &mdash;Liza Wiemer, author of The Assignment"American Betiya is amazing! This glorious book is about finding yourself while trapped between two very different worlds. I loved how Rani was both a strong, independent American girl and also a loving, proud Indian betiya. I can&rsquo;t say enough good things about this book. It is brilliant!&#160;-Ellen Oh, author and co-founder of We Need Diverse Books, for Goodreads&rsquo; Incredible YA Reading List &#160;&ldquo;This   heartbreaking love story is a strong debut and an entertaining read. An   interracial teen romance that unflinchingly tackles   racism and patriarchy.&rdquo; &mdash;Kirkus   Reviews"Rajurkar&rsquo;s tight prose facilitates a gripping plot.&rdquo; &mdash;Publishers Weekly

Praise for the October Daye seriesNew York Times and&#160;USA Today bestselling series"The top of my urban-paranormal series list! I am so invested in the worldbuilding and the characters.... The romance is real and awesome, but doesn't overshadow the adventure." &mdash;Felicia Day"The 13th outing for Daye is just as fresh and exciting as the first. McGuire has built a complex world, where seemingly loose ends are woven tightly into the series. Highly recommended."&#160;&mdash;Library Journal (starred)"October has evolved from an embittered loner into a fierce protector of her chosen family, making for a richly emotional tale filled with series-standard fare of adventure, intrigue, and blood-soaked mayhem."&#160;&mdash;Publishers Weekly"The worldbuilding in this series has astonishing depth, and Night and Silence is no exception&mdash;12 books in, McGuire is still giving readers&#160;fascinating new pieces of the Faerie puzzle."&#160;&mdash;Booklist"I can't believe McGuire can come up with another adventure as riveting as this one. But then I say that after every book in this series."&#160;&mdash;SFRevu"McGuire has never lacked for courage in her writing.... The phenomenally inventive October Daye series showcases her&#160;narrative daring&#160;and ingenuity&#160;beautifully." &mdash;RT Reviews"Prepare to be dazzled.... Like the best of urban fantasy, with each reveal and mystery solved, Toby's world grows ever more enticing.&#160;As seductive as Faerie itself, this is one series I could never give up." &mdash;All Things Urban Fantasy"These books are like watching half a season of your favorite television series all at once.... More than anything else, it's the fun of it all that's kept me returning to McGuire's books and to this series." &mdash;SF Signal&#160;"The plot is strong, the characterization is terrific, the tragedies hurt...and&#160;McGuire's usual beautiful writing and dark humor are present and accounted for. This has become one of my favorite urban fantasy series." &mdash;Fantasy Literature

Praise for the Eric Carter series"Blackmoore can't write these books fast enough to suit me. Broken Souls is hyper-caffeinated, turbo-bloody, face-stomping fun. This is the L.A.-noir urban fantasy you've been looking for." &mdash;Kevin Hearne, New York Times bestselling author of The Iron Druid Chronicles"Demons and dark magic and gods of death: what's not to like? Blackmoore's hard-charging prose hits like a bullet fired from a cursed gun.... Fast becoming my favorite urban fantasy series, Broken Souls is a welcome addition to the necromancer chronicles of Eric Carter. Read this book. Read it now." &mdash;Chuck Wendig, author of Wanderers"Eric Carter's adventures are&#160;bleak, witty, and as twisty as a fire-blasted madrone, told in prose as sharp as a razor. Blackmoore is the rising star of pitch-black paranormal noir. A must-read series." &mdash;Kat Richardson, author of the Greywalker novels"Broken Souls is a deliciously gritty thrill ride. I can't get enough of Stephen Blackmoore's&#160;warped imagination and superb noir sensibilities. This is a must-read for any fan of awesome things." &mdash;Jaye Wells, author of the Sabina Kane series"Carter&rsquo;s wry voice is amusing as ever, but the grief he carries is palpable, adding depth and a sense of desperation to this action-packed adventure.&#160;Readers will be eager for more&#160;after this thrilling, emotionally fraught installment." &mdash;Publishers Weekly (starred)"Ghost Money is reminiscent of Kevin Hearne&rsquo;s&#160;Iron Druid series, pitting a powerful human magic-user against the gods, while use of the Aztec&#160;gods calls all the way back to Mercedes Lackey&rsquo;s Diana Tregarde&#160;books. Blackmoore&rsquo;s fast pace and no-holds-barred prose give him a unique place in the genre." &mdash;Booklist"Fans will find plenty to enjoy in the long-awaited third outing of necromancer Eric Carter. Blackmoore infuses his increasingly&#160;detailed and dangerous urban fantasy&#160;landscape with grim yet fascinating characters, and ensures that every step of Carter's epic journey is a perilously fascinating one." &mdash;RT Reviews (top pick)"The entire series toes the line between gritty and dark but with heart. It ramps up the shock value and the tension without ever feeling like you've crossed the line into something uncomfortable and unreadable. Tight prose, memorable characters."&#160;&mdash;Fantasy Writers' World
