    The Vanishers

    by Heidi Julavits

    Julia Severn is a student at an elite institute for psychics. Her mentor, the legendary Madame Ackermann, refuses to pass the torch to her young disciple and instead subjects Julia to the humiliation of reliving her mother`s suicide when Julia was an infant. As the two lock horns and Julia gains power, Madame Ackermann launches a desperate psychic attack that leaves Julia the victim of a crippling ailment. Julia retreats to a faceless job in Manhattan and sifts through ghosts and astral clues, discovering that her ability to know the minds of others—including her own—goes far deeper than she ever imagined. The Vanishers is a stunning meditation on grief, female rivalry, and the power of a mother-daughter bond.

    Rainshadow Road

    by Lisa Kleypas

    Lucy Marinn, a glass artist living in beautiful Friday Harbor, Washington, has been stunned and blindsided by the most bitter kind of betrayal: her fiancé Kevin has left her to be with her younger sister. To diffuse Lucy and her parents’ anger, Kevin asks his friend Sam Nolan, a local vineyard owner on San Juan Island, to ‘romance’ Lucy. But when Lucy discovers that the new relationship in her life began under false pretences, she is forced to confront her assumptions about love, loyalty, old patterns, mistakes, and new beginnings.

    This Is a Love Story

    by Jessica Thompson

    Boy meets girl and girl falls for boy—that’s how it’s supposed to be, right? Not so in Sienna and Nick’s case. The debut novel by Jessica Thompson follows Nick and Sienna who fall in love at first sight, but instead of starting a relationship, they become best friends. Told from both Nick and Sienna’s point of view, it documents their roller-coaster relationship throughout five years and their ultimate struggle to try to keep their true feelings hidden.
