Wrongful Reconciliation: A Budge Moss Novel
by Peter SvensonLove-battered Budge Moss, the once-prominent author now largely forgotten by the reading public, emerges from his crisis of separation and pending divorce under the protective wing of Matty Klein, an elderly widow in whose home--and heart--he now resides. Budge knows he has it good: a roof over his head, a room of his own and the solitude in which to pursue his literary craft, not to mention Matty's steadfast devotion and culinary generosity. But is he satisfied? No, he isn't. One thing after another gets under his skin. He dislikes the upscale subdivision where he now lives. He questions Matty's chronological age in relation to his own. He resents having such a difficult time getting published. And then he hears from his soon-to-be ex-wife, which sets in motion a chain of events that becomes a tale of comic horror, a cross-country rapprochement that should never have gotten past the theoretical, or pipe-dream stage. "Wrongful Reconciliation, Peter Svenson's second novel, is a sequel to his earlier "Washed Up With A Broken Heart in Rock Hall, which chronicled the hapless Budge Moss's initial forays into single-hood.

X-Plan Parenting: Become Your Child's Ally—A Guide to Raising Strong Kids in a Challenging World
by Bert FulksThe creator of the viral parenting concept the “X-Plan” illuminates the importance of awakening your child’s unique strength—while also taking an introspective look at your own life story to become a better parent. Last year, father and former teacher Bert Fulks’s simple parenting idea went viral: if your teenagers find themselves in a situation where they feel uncomfortable or trapped, they can text a family member an “X.” That family member will then call, giving the teen a way out, while still maintaining their freedom—and no questions will be asked. Now in X-Plan Parenting, Fulks expands on the how and the why behind his plan, emphasizing the importance of developing trusting relationships with our kids. Drawing on biblical principles, Fulks’s approach illuminates how even though we want the very best for our children, we sometimes parent from a place of brokenness and a desire for control rather than support and encouragement. We focus on our mistakes and painful growing-up moments and the things we wish we’d had when we were kids instead of what’s best for our own children right now. This dynamic can pit kids against their parents and create rifts in the relationship. Fulks advocates for an alliance between children and parents instead of an “us vs. them” mentality. Rather than spending so much time coaxing or battling our kids, Fulks inspires us to work with our kids instead of against them. And rather than trying to right our own past wrongs vicariously through our children, he urges us to recognize where we need healing so we can provide authentic strength to support our kids’ unique journeys. There is a tender art to disciplining our kids, and X-Plan Parenting serves up laughter and tears, hard questions, and plenty of grace to moms and dads who want their kids to love God and lead passionate, joyful lives in an unpredictable world.

Y: A Novel
by Marjorie Celona"Y. That perfect letter. The wishbone, fork in the road, empty wineglass. The question we ask over and over. Why? . . . My life begins at the Y." So opens Marjorie Celona's highly acclaimed and exquisitely rendered debut about a wise-beyond-her-years foster child abandoned as a newborn on the doorstep of the local YMCA.

Brilliantly and hauntingly interwoven with Shannon's story is the tale of her mother, Yula, a girl herself who is facing a desperate fate in the hours and days leading up to Shannon's birth. As past and present converge, Y tells an unforgettable story of identity, inheritance, and, ultimately, forgiveness.

Ya nadie canta
by Manuela Espinal SolanoEspinal Solano ve en las vivencias familiares el oro de la condición humana, al modo de una Natalia Ginzburg en cuyo léxico familiar brillasen la música, el gusto por la farándula, el show y las ansias de protagonismo escénico esparcidas por una vida cotidiana hecha de rituales domésticos y frases repetidas mil veces. Y, por debajo de todo ello, la intimidad, la cruda verdad humana, la ternura. CABALLO DE TROYA 2023Edición a cargo de Sabina Urraca Ya nadie canta despliega el pasado y el presente de una familia que ha dedicado su vida a la música ligera y el espectáculo. Este libro nos abre las puertas de una casa en la que los personajes deambulan por sus quehaceres diarios sin despegarse del todo de los brillos, las lentejuelas, los destellos de los focos. La escritura de Manuela Espinal Solano es una mirada privilegiada sobre la condición humana, un registro de la más pura memoria -acoso ficción- que conduce a la gran meta del olvido.
