Everything Makes Perfect Sense by Brinn Langdale (HARD COVER)
At fourteen, Brinn didn’t understand what was wrong with her. Debilitating headaches, a deep hatred of her own body, reckless hookups, addiction, and thoughts of ending her life. Maybe it was her parents' messy divorce or the tumultuous relationship with her mom, she couldn't tell. All she knew was that something was off, and deep down, she feared she was just "crazy."
Everything changed her senior year of high school when a single question shattered the silence. What followed tore her family, and her world, apart.
Brinn’s story is one that too many endure: what began as exploration between siblings spiraled into over a decade of secretive abuse. Yet her healing journey is anything but typical. At twenty-two, desperate to change her life, she embarked on an intentional quest for healing, uncovering the profound impact trauma has on the body, mind, and soul. Then, just shy of her thirtieth birthday, she achieved what had once seemed impossible: forgiveness.
This powerful memoir offers hope to anyone who has ever wondered if healing from trauma is truly possible. Brinn’s story is a testament to resilience, courage, and the kind of empowered forgiveness that's for you—not for them.

Tickled Soul by Keith Pochick (Soft Cover)
As we reach midlife, many of us begin to question certain aspects of our lives. New hobbies, homes, relationships, or even careers may beckon as we contemplate what comes next. For Keith Pochick, what began as a “what if” soon became a transition from seasoned and successful emergency physician to middle school science teacher. In this refreshingly candid and original self-help memoir, Pochick shares the beliefs, philosophy, and outlook that led him to follow his heart—and soul—to a major career transition in his forties. Touching upon life, love, eternal life, free will, motivation, and purpose, Pochick explores how each of these areas flowed into assertions of the theological and philosophical beliefs that shaped the course of his life.
Tickled Soul is an invigorating wake-up call for anyone who is dissatisfied with their personal status quo and wondering if there’s more to human existence than what they’re currently experiencing.

No Grass Grows Under Our Feet (Hard-Cover) by Jeffrey Davis Page
I have found that human nature is the same today as it was years ago. We are driven by the same passions today as in the past.
Growing up, Jeffery Davis Page never learned much about his family’s history. The older generations were very tight-lipped about their past, as though they were ashamed.

Ready to unveil the mystery surrounding his family’s background, Jeff launched into a five-year journey to discover the details of his past, the secrets of his ancestry, and the impacts his family made throughout American history.
No Grass Grows Under Our Feet is an homage to family legacy, Southern culture, and the many paths that led us to where we are today.

Balance Pedal Breathe: A Journey Through Medical School by Claire Unis (Soft Cover)
When I was on my mountain bike, I knew that perseverance would pay off, that every uphill climb would end, that I could handle sudden drops and quick swerves and even most of the rocks that might appear in the road. My biking skills seemed irrelevant to learning medicine, but if nothing else, they kept my self-esteem off the floor.
When she received her acceptance to medical school, Claire Unis was an idealistic twenty-two-year-old waitress living in a small town in the Eastern Sierra. She arrived confident that caring about people would carry her through. But the trails she found herself traveling in medical school were more treacherous than she had imagined. As she emerged from the dark tunnel of endless studying into the labyrinth of the hospital, she found herself wrestling self-doubt while placating irascible patients, fighting sleep-deprivation, and sinking in the quicksand of empathy before arriving at the crux that plagues physicians today: how to retain compassion for others while struggling to stay whole.
By beautifully juxtaposing the often-tempestuous landscape of becoming a doctor with one young woman’s wide-ranging adventures in nature, this smartly written memoir explores the heart and sinew of medicine, discovering places where knowledge and meaning diverge—and, unexpectedly, intertwine.
