Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After laying low for three months in the Bahamas, Tookie is eager to get back to Dallas. Though he is in the safest place possible down in the Bahamas, he is willing to take the risk of going back. Before he is able to get to Dallas, he makes a pit stop to visit his brother, Quincy. Fully aware of what’s going on, Quincy introduces him to Anson, his brother-in-law and a trained assassin. Anson gives him a few pointers, then Tookie hires him to assist with identifying the snitch. The idea of going back home is great, until Big Mama alerts him that an undercover car has been sitting on her house. Not one to scare easily, Tookie decides to go home anyway. He switches things up and hires his younger brother to drive for him. Everything seems to be going smoothly until Brooke rolls up on him at his house. Knowing that Brooke is back to watching him, he takes extra precautions with doing and saying anything. When his sister, Quanda, makes him aware of the arrest of two of his friends, and Yaniyzah points out the people his father had pictured, Tookie begins his snitch hunt. Yaniyzah doesn’t like the idea of going back to Dallas, but she can’t wait to reunite with her friends. She’s even more excited when Tookie tells her that he is getting her a boutique. After thinking about it, Yaniyzah wants to reestablish a relationship with her father. Everything is going perfect, until she runs into Imani’s father, Montrez. He is demanding that Yaniyzah let him see his daughter. Not knowing what to do, she seeks advice from Quincy’s wife, Kayla, during a visit. She decides to let Imani visit with him behind Tookie’s back, but that isn’t the only secret she is keeping from him. With Brooke following him, and not knowing who is snitching, you wouldn’t think that things couldn’t get any more stressful for Tookie. Wrong! His mother, who he can’t stand, is getting out of jail and Yaniyzah’s father wants to meet him. Not only that, but he finds out that one of his boys is cozied up with his first love, Joy. A heavy weight is laid upon Tookie’s shoulders, and he is not sure of how to shake it off. Will he let years of friendship go down the drain behind an old love? Will Yaniyzah’s secret break their bond forever, or will it make their relationship stronger? How will he deal with the snitch once he finds out who it is? These questions and more will be answered in the second installment of A Hustler’s Fantasy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • From the critically acclaimed author of SIX CRIMSON CRANES comes a fantasy tale of two sisters—one as beautiful as the other is monstrous—who must fight to save each other when a betrothal contest gone wrong unleashes an evil that could sever their bond forever! One sister must fall for the other to rise. Channi was not born a monster. But when her own father offers her in sacrifice to the Demon Witch, she is forever changed. Cursed with a serpent’s face, Channi is the exact opposite of her beautiful sister, Vanna—the only person in the village who looks at Channi and doesn’t see a monster. The only person she loves and trusts. Now at seventeen, Vanna is to be married off in a vulgar contest that will enrich the coffers of the village leaders. Only Channi, who’s had to rely on her strength and cunning all these years, can defend her sister against the cruelest of the suitors. But in doing so, she becomes the target of his wrath—launching a grisly battle royale, a quest over land and sea, a romance between sworn enemies, and a choice that will strain Channi’s heart to its breaking point. Weaving together elements of The Selection and Ember in the Ashes with classic tales like Beauty and the Beast, Helen of Troy, and Asian folklore, Elizabeth Lim is at the absolute top of her game in this thrilling yet heart-wrenching fantasy that explores the dark side of beauty and the deepest bonds of sisterhood.

Beautifully written, and emotionally provocative” (Tor). The strange war down south—with its rumors of gods and monsters—is over. And while sixteen-year-old Hallie and her sister wait to see who will return from the distant battlefield, they struggle to maintain their family farm. When Hallie hires a veteran to help them, the war comes home in ways no one could have imagined, and soon Hallie is taking dangerous risks—and keeping desperate secrets. But even as she slowly learns more about the war and the men who fought it, ugly truths about Hallie’s own family are emerging. And while monsters and armies are converging on the small farm, the greatest threat to her home may be Hallie herself. “[A] superb fantasy . . . Bobet is an accomplished stylist . . . and she insightfully examines the corrosive dangers of sibling rivalry in a story filled with impossible choices and unknowable ambiguities.” —Publishers Weekly (starred review) “War, community, long-festering anger, and forgiveness—all thoughtfully and deliberately conveyed.” —Kirkus Reviews “A compelling interrogation of faith versus science . . . Readers with an interest in either will find this to be an elevation from the run-of-the-mill dystopia.” —Bulletin
