From Sunday Times and #1 New York Times bestselling author of Things We Never Got Over Dominic: I got her fired. Okay, so I'd had a bad day, but there's nothing innocent about Ally Morales. Maybe her colourful, annoying, inexplicably alluring personality brightens up the magazine's offices that have felt like a prison for the past year. Maybe I like that she argues with me in front of the editorial staff. And maybe my after-hours fantasies are haunted by her brown eyes and sharp tongue. She's working herself to death at half a dozen dead-end jobs for some secret reason. And I'm going to fix it all. Don't accuse me of caring. She's nothing more than a puzzle to be solved. If I can get her to quit, I can finally peel away all those layers. Then I can go back to salvaging the family name and forget all about the dancing, beer-slinging brunette. Ally: Ha. Hold my beer, Grumpy Grump Face.

Book Description
An intricate and exquisite tale of how bedtime fears can be transformed into wondrous dreams and magical adventures, by Hans Christian Andersen award–winning Roger Mello As João tucks under a lovingly woven quilt, he asks himself: So it’s just me now? He curls up, getting cozy in bed, and soon the world of his dreams unspools on the page. The blanket in his bed unravels into deep rivers, lakes, valleys, reservoirs, mountain ranges, fishing nets full of tadpoles and gaping holes, until what’s left is just one long thread. When he feels alone and scared in the dark, João “sews words like patchwork” into a new blanket to cover himself up. He weaves the threads of his quilt until they form one long sentence, and soon, the nighttime is peppered with his own silvery, slippery words. Roger Mello draws like a shapeshifter – to look at his illustrations is always to see something you missed before (a stingray, a crescent moon nestled into the palm of João’s hand). His breathtaking line drawings, beaming in white thread against deep red, combined with poetic and bewildered language, make João by a Thread a book to take into bed at the edge of sleep, just before you start to dream.

Book Description
Can a photograph tell a love story? Countless pages have been written to describe how photography captures a fleeting instant in time and holds it as individual lives and whole histories unfold. In viewing a photograph, we continually shift from the awareness of a moment to the perspective of memory. Isn't this also the experience of love? Passion, loyalty, wonder, and more are felt towards a beloved intensely in the moment, but love also extends to encompass a complex of feelings and events experienced over time, committed to memory, and transcending life spans. In this most poetic sense, photographs might not only tell love stories, they can embody them. Embodied love is photographer Paula Gately Tillman's pursuit in My Love Is a Thread Tied to You.In 2019, Paula revisited the picturesque towns and hotels in Switzerland and Liechtenstein to which she and her late husband, LeRoy E. Hoffberger (1925-2016), traveled during their courtship and marriage. Through this physical return, Paula enacted the conceptual workings of photography, a medium that compels our gaze and our thoughts to return over and over again to sites of past significance. She photographed her journey, entwining the resulting images with hand-written notes and other recollections of her life with Roy to create this artist's book.A moving meditation on love emerges from Paula's ethereal images of hotel draperies, furniture, and antiques. These delicate subjects contain a tactile beauty that conjures up the intimacies of shared domestic life all the while conveying the absence of those people who once touched and used them. Photographs of remote castles, mountain mist, and trees that seem to blossom while they weep are juxtaposed with interior views. These are fairy tale scenes witnessed in real life, much the way dreams merge with reality in a great romance.- Kristen HilemanIndependent Curator
