Book excerpt: * A Chicago Public Library’s Best of the Best Books of 2019 Selection * A Canadian Children’s Book Center Best Books for Kids & Teens Pick * From debut author Tina Athaide comes a soaring tale of empathy, hope, and resilience, as two best friends living under Ugandan President Amin’s divisive rule must examine where—and who—they call home. Perfect for fans of Half from the East and Inside Out and Back Again. Asha and her best friend, Yesofu, never cared about the differences between them: Indian. African. Girl. Boy. Short. Tall. But when Idi Amin announces that Indians have ninety days to leave the country, suddenly those differences are the only things that people in Entebbe can see—not the shared after-school samosas or Asha cheering for Yesofu at every cricket game. Determined for her life to stay the same, Asha clings to her world tighter than ever before. But Yesofu is torn, pulled between his friends, his family, and a promise of a better future. Now as neighbors leave and soldiers line the streets, the two friends find that nothing seems sure—not even their friendship. Tensions between Indians and Africans intensify and the deadline to leave is fast approaching. Could the bravest thing of all be to let each other go?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To hear Donna O'Day tell the story, her future looks bleak. And lonely, for sure. To her it seems that she suddenly woke up to find herself a woman "of a certain age" living in a Florida paradise of thongs and bikinis. Her lover is dead, and she has had to part with her beloved muscle car. And if that isn't enough, her successful son in Chicago may as well live on Mars for all that they speak to each other nowadays. To top all of this off, she's never been able to catch the elusive green flash of a sunset over the Gulf, no matter how hard she has tried. Cats and wine are a big part of Donna's life nowadays, and, as much as she loves them both, she can't help but wonder if there is something other than Merlot and meows to look forward to on long nights under the palms. Then just like magic three women from Donna's past show up, bringing memories, laughter and tears and leaving her with glittery hope for a new love and another chance to see those sunsets of orange and green.
