A big truck with its mouth wide open is parked at the curb, ready to gobble up Evelyn’s mirror with the stickers around the edge . . . and the sofa that we bounce on to get to the moon. Evelyn Del Rey is Daniela’s best friend. They do everything together and even live in twin apartments across the street from each other: Daniela with her mami and hamster, and Evelyn with her mami, papi, and cat. But not after today—not after Evelyn moves away. Until then, the girls play amid the moving boxes until it’s time to say goodbye, making promises to keep in touch, because they know that their friendship will always be special.

Book excerpt: Late in her life, acclaimed novelist Elizabeth Delamere makes a request of her therapist, Doctor Newman: she asks him to oversee the publication of her last book after she dies. It is a memoir in which she reveals that she is Evelyn Dick, the notorious "torso murderer" acquitted on appeal of dismembering her husband, and convicted of killing her infant son. In 1958 she was paroled, and disappeared into the mists of history. In Blue Moon, James King draws on the historical case of Evelyn Dick, and imagines her life after her release from prison. It is a life in which she travels to Vancouver, renames herself, and settles into a position as sales clerk at Duthie Books on Robson. There she meets Ethel Wilson, begins therapy, and tries to understand the events that led to her imprisonment and current life. She also begins to write, and finds herself a successfully published author. But did she murder her husband? Is she guilty of neglect of her baby boy? Was her life as Hamilton’s most notorious prostitute her responsibility? With the help of Doctor Newman, she attempts to come to understand the violence in which she was involved, her sense of guilt, and the essential truth of her innocence.

Book excerpt: A modern feel-good urban Cinderella-flavored tale filled with laughs, angst, and love. Hello, I'm Gretchen. I work in a tavern. My life is not pretty. Like Cinderella in the fairy tale, I know what struggle is, my reputation is in tatters, and I have serious scars. That guy over there, he's Mike, the CEO of Sumloven.com. A slick golden boy as admired and beloved as a royal prince, he takes as his due everything my life lacks. Our circles never should have crossed. My world is light years away from his. He knew it, too. From our first exchange in the virtual world, he hated me. Yet with every message, every text, it changes. We change. Am I reading more into his words than I should? Because it sure feels like there's something else between the lines...something he's not saying. No matter where our online back-and-forth leads us, I know one thing. Meeting him in person would be a disaster. He's still the idolized man the gossip rags can't stop talking about...and I'm still a public target. Even as we move from enemies to friends, the line between us widens with what we can't say.... A rich man. A woman in poverty. An intense slow burn that grows out of texts, emails, posts, and throwaway scribbles. A modern epistolary romance.
