Michelle Carroll: Neck the Halls: 19 Holiday Romances, Both Naughty and Spice (0 comment)
Every December, when the Portland sun disappears, my mental health depends on a steady stream of sugary-sweet holiday rom-coms. While I love the low-budget movies (unlicensed new pop songs with auto-tuned jingle bells! Every scene obviously filmed in the same McMansion, even the ones that take place at "work"! Chemistry...

Synopses & Reviews

Synopsis

Life is all about risk. Sometimes you embrace it. Other times, fate forces your hand. A. C. Burch's powerful collection is all about the cliff--the tipping point--the instant we must roll the dice or succumb to the status quo.

Burch's unlikely heroes face life with courage and humor in a tenacious search for meaning and fulfillment. This memorable anthology spans not just distance but the range of human emotion. From coming of age to confronting old age, conquering fear of failure to rekindling a failed romance, the quirky characters of A Book of Revelations are certain to captivate.

Vividly illustrated by Madeline Sorel,

Synopsis

"Drag performers, detectives, and community moguls meet in Burch's (The Homeport Journals, 2015, etc.) collection, which features coming-out stories with a twist." - Kirkus Reviews

We all keep secrets. Even from ourselves. A Book of Revelations explores the tipping point--when the truth offers liberation and continued self-deception perpetuates the status quo.

-Private Quarters: A coming of age story. With cocktails.

-Curtain Call: A spurned "mistress" crashes a memorial for her ex-lover's wife.

-GOtterdAmmerung: The complex relationship between a maestro and his protEgE.

-Convergence: An aging artist and would-be socialite hosts a disastrous dinner party.

-The Honoree: A local saint's past unexpectedly threatens her future.

-Last Chance: A gay detective investigates a murder case where nothing is at it seems.

-The Midnight Suitor A nephew unearths an old family secret--with a modern-day twist.

-Even In Death: Mourners who are strangers "bond" at a charlatan's wake.

"A Book of Revelations delivers on its promise. It will surprise, sadden, delight, shock, and most likely bring you to tears more than once." GGR Reviews.

Illustrated by Madeline Sorel,
