Paperback. Zustand: Good. Have you ever dreamed of running away? Life hasn't always been easy for Bernice, but she is reasonably content at the ripe age of eighty-one. She has raised two children, buried both her husband and son, and is doing okay despite a few minor health issues. When Bernice's daughter, Sarah, insists the time has come for Bernice to forfeit her independence and move into her backyard carriage house, Bernice refuses. "I have a perfectly good house in Arkansas. Why on earth would I move to Atlanta?" Despite Bernice's protestations, Sarah moves forward with death cleaning and estate sale planning as though Bernice has no say in the matter. Bernice has plenty to say about a variety of things. With Miss Fiona packed stem to stern with only those things that spark joy (thank you, Marie Kondo) and inspired by an old black-and-white photograph of her first true love, Bernice leaves her cozy home in Savage Crossing without a glance in the rearview mirror. And without a word to her family. Once Bernice decides to run away, what unfolds is a heartfelt journey into long-ignored questions and change for the good. A charming story of second chances and the transcendent power of love, Bernice Runs Away clears away life's clutter and gets to the truth of what is essential in life.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Ten-year-old Gracie Lee knows a few things. She knows which trees are best for climbing. She knows how to walk through the hallway without making a sound on the hardwood floor. She knows if Daddy's crop gets one more drop of rain, the whole family will pay the price. There are plenty of things Gracie doesn't know. These things keep her awake at night. Gracie longs for something bigger and grander and truer, and feels certain there is more to life beyond school and dull church sermons. She worries about the soldiers in Vietnam and wonders what it must be like to have been born Lisa Marie Presley from Tennessee instead of Gracie Lee Abbott from Arkansas. Mostly, she wishes her Daddy wasn't so mean. Gracie's unchecked imagination leads to adventure, and adventure leads to trouble. She confides in unexpected characters and seeks solace in a mysterious gray house beyond the cotton field. When Gracie faces a difficult family situation, she must make a life-altering decision, one that will test the very essence of her character. At best, most first novels indicate potential. It would be wrong to say that, when reading Talya Tate Boerner's The Accidental Salvation of Gracie Lee, I was pleasantly surprised. Actually, I was amazed. There's magic here, in a wonderfully-told story that will find a special place in any reader's heart. --Jeff Guinn, New York Times bestselling author.…

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. A solitary man finds his quiet world turned upside down when a precocious young girl shows up on his front porch during a thunderstorm.
