A Good Morning America Buzz Pick A Betches Book to Add to Your Fall Reading List A PureWow Book We Can't Wait to Read in September A Skimm Reads Pick A hilarious, heartfelt story about four lifelong friends determined to change their lives, come hell (terrible bosses, ex-husbands living next door) or high water (laundry...so much laundry) from the acclaimed author of Last Summer at the Golden Hotel. Melissa Levin, Priya Chowdhury, Tara Taylor, and Suki Hammer were going places when they graduated high school in 1997. Their yearbook superlatives were Most Likely to Win the White House, Cure Cancer, Open a Michelin-Starred Restaurant, and Join the Forbes 400, respectively. Fast forward twenty-five years and nothing has gone according to plan. Reunited at their reunion, the women rethink their younger selves. Is it too late to make their dreams come true? Fueled by nostalgia and one too many drinks, they form a pact to push through their middle-aged angst to bring their youthful aspirations to fruition, dubbing themselves the “Most Likely Girls.” Through the ensuing highs and lows, they are reminded of the enduring bonds of friendship, the ways our childhood dreams both sustain and surprise us — and why it’s never a good idea to peak too early.

I became an expert on Legos--not that I had any choice in the matter. From the time our son Robert was able to creep about on the floor, he spent countless hours hunkered down, constructing edifices to make Frank Lloyd Wright spin in his grave. As I would come home exhausted from work, Robert would greet me with, "Daddy! We have to build!"And so we built . . .Each night I was as disappointed about Robert's bedtime as he was. But my son granted solemn permission for me to continue on without him. "Daddy, you can play Legos while I'm asleep," he'd say. I'd blush and stammer for him to get on to bed. I'd share a Bible story, listen to prayers and kiss my two children goodnight. Then, when I could hear Robert breathing regularly, I'd steal over to the Lego corner. The Suggs family is an ordinary family--probably a lot like your family. Whether they're playing with Legos, learning to drive or just mowing the lawn, the Suggses live a down-to-earth life. What's extraordinary is Rob Suggs's spiritual perception and story-telling ability. The result is a winsome collection of tales filled with laughter, love and profound meaning that sheds new light on God's precious gift of family. So gather around the kitchen table with the Suggs family to listen to a few of their stories. And the next time your toddler throws her peas or your spouse loses the keys, you might discover some rich stories of your own.

Someone has begun targeting vampires. Vampire leaders of the thirteen Houses attribute the string of recent losses to over-zealous vampire hunters. Only Cicatrice, the most ancient and powerful vampire in the world, suspects that the semi-legendary Hunter of the Dead may be the real culprit. Carter Price, a vampire hunter who despises the way his profession is becoming centralized and corporatized, begins to suspect the Hunter of the Dead is back, too—and no longer distinguishing between vampires and mortals. Against his better judgment, Price agrees to work with Cicatrice. The uneasy allies attempt to uncover the truth about the Hunter, while a vampire civil war brews in the background.
