The Spy: A Novel of Mata Hari (Paperback)

By Paulo Coelho

$15.00

None of the connections Mata Hari made with men of wealth and importance saved her from the French firing squad on October 15, 1917. Until her last hour, she believed that her charm and personal favors would dispel the espionage charges, that her innocence would prevail. Although the prosecutor hand no evidence, no case, this exotic dancer and world famous beauty had discredited herself with the public. Coelho's brilliant account of a fiercely independent woman of history, Mata Hari, illuminates and adventurous life during dark times.

For fans of Roxane Gay and Lindy West, look no further! Irby has an ability to confront tough issues head on with dark humor, genuine pathos and real pain.

You'll laugh, you'll snort, you'll tear up, and you'll enjoy it.

Approximately Heaven (Paperback)

By James Whorton

$16.95

A born-loser protagonist and dry southern wit. Comparisons to Charles "True Grit" Portis are inevitable. Like Portis, Whorton has a surprisingly honest, strong feeling for his comic characters. But Whorton has his own strengths and transcends the comparison. And his hero here, Don, feels so very, very familiar. With each chapter you hope against hope that he'll finally make the Better Decision. (I almost feel like I knew this poor guy, growing up. More accurately, though, I think I grew up with people who knew him - if that makes any sense.)

Goodbye, Vitamin (Hardcover)

By Rachel Khong

$26.00

Easily my favorite book of 2017, Goodbye, Vitamin is full of jaunty wit that never feels twee and packs its fair share of emotional punches that startle the reader but never leave a bruise.
