A photo of the book, "Alchemy and a Cup of Tea" by Rebecca Thorne sitting on the bookstore floor with one copy facing you, showing it's purple sprayed edges. --- https://www.blue-house-books.com/item/MWp_c1qAP1yekGQnzc-LAg On the night of her kidnapping, all Reyna wanted was a relaxing cup of tea. She didn’t expect to be dropped in a hidden prison cell, but what the hells. She’s flexible. With appropriate fanfare, Kianthe “rescues” her wife...but Reyna’s actually a terrible damsel in distress. Even worse, Reyna's cell was booby trapped with a mysterious alchemy circle. What does a radical alchemist want with the Arcandor’s wife? And why did they think they could get away with this? While they investigate, another problem surfaces in their hometown. Word of New Leaf Tomes and Tea—and its celebrity owners—has finally spread. Tourists are everywhere, harassing the locals and ruining the charm of Tawney. As their friends struggle with the sudden influx, Kianthe and Reyna have to face a bigger conundrum than rogue alchemists: the fact that closing their bookshop might be the only way to save their town. Things can’t just be simple, can they? A photo of the deluxe hardcover edition of "The Pumpkin Spice Cafe" by Laurie Gilmore sitting on the floor of the bookstore with one copy facing you so you can see the sprayed yellow-gold sprayed edges with leaves falling down it. --- https://www.blue-house-books.com/item/-N6gmzyBxehcwFDJZLdl7Q This deluxe hardback edition features: -Character art dust jacket -Exclusively designed full-color Dream Harbor location endpapers -Foil-stamped pumpkin case -Exclusive animal stenciled sprayed edge design Every book in the Dream Harbor series can be read as a standalone. When Jeanie's aunt gifts her the beloved Pumpkin Spice Café in the small town of Dream Harbor, Jeanie jumps at the chance for a fresh start away from her very dull desk job. Logan is a local farmer who avoids Dream Harbor's gossip at all costs. But Jeanie's arrival disrupts Logan's routine and he wants nothing to do with the irritatingly upbeat new girl, except that he finds himself inexplicably drawn to her. Will Jeanie's happy-go-lucky attitude win over the grumpy-but-gorgeous Logan, or has this city girl found the one person in town who won't fall for her charm, or her pumpkin spice lattes... A photo of a hand holding the book, "An Evil Premise" by T. Marie Vandelly in front of a bookshelf. --- https://www.blue-house-books.com/item/bjXdMmli80H0RvQXIKGJ-Q When a bizarre accident leaves her sister, bestselling author Deidre Baldwin, in a coma and suffering from a grotesque skin malady, Jewel rushes to her bedside. Though the sisters are not close, she is determined to do what she can for Deidre. Staying at her sister’s apartment, Jewel stumbles upon an unfinished manuscript, the one that Deidre was rushing to complete for her publisher. When Deidre’s literary agent calls in a panic, Jewel—a self-published writer herself, desperate for a break—suggests she can finish it by the deadline. But the story is unsettling. It begins with a writer looking for inspiration, who finds an unclaimed manuscript. But said manuscript is just a series of protagonists who feel compelled to act out their heinous contributions to the grisly plot. Jewel is determined not to be scared off, but the novel hits a little close to home. She tries to tell herself she’s being paranoid, but swears she can hear someone typing when she’s not at the desk, and somehow the word count of the novel keeps going up. Her skin begins to itch. Terrified of losing her sanity, but equally terrified of losing her one shot at success, Jewel tries to find a story somewhere in the carnage, even as her rash becomes worse and she starts to have not-so-neighborly thoughts about her neighbors. Is this what happened to Deidre? Did the manuscript drive her mad? Infect her somehow? Jewel finds herself hoping her sister never wakes up. And fearing what will happen if Deidre does … A photo of a hand holding the book, "Too Old For This" by Samantha Downing in front of a bookshelf. --- https://www.blue-house-books.com/item/UPeceejxZgeEbee7VI6EjQ A retired serial killer’s quiet life is upended by an unexpected visitor. To protect her secret, there’s only one option left—what’s another murder? From bestselling author Samantha Downing. Lottie Jones thought her crimes were behind her. Decades earlier, she changed her identity and tucked herself away in a small town. Her most exciting nights are the weekly bingo games at the local church and gossiping with her friends. When investigative journalist Plum Dixon shows up on her doorstep asking questions about Lottie’s past and specifically her involvement with numerous unsolved cases, well, Lottie just can’t have that. But getting away with murder is hard enough when you’re young. And when Lottie receives another annoying knock on the door, she realizes this crime might just be the death of her…

Book 26 of 2025: HOW TO TELL WHEN WE WILL DIE by Johanna Hedva. A book of disability-centered essays that is gross and punk and lively and philosophical and kinky and sometimes sad but never tragic. A very good read. 📚👀
The cover of Johanna Hedva’s essay collection HOW TO TELL WHEN WE WILL DIE: ON PAIN, DISABILITY, AND DOOM. A medieval-looking illustration of a man bring disemboweled and poked and prodded with various weapons decorated a light pink background intermittently dotted with red stars that evoke both a constellation and a pox.
