In her most revealing and powerful memoir yet, the activist, speaker, best-selling author, and patron saint of female empowerment explores the joy and peace we discover when we stop striving to meet others' expectations and start trusting the voice deep within us. 

 

 

A smart, thoughtful, and timely exploration of two sisters' lives from the 1950s to the present as they struggle to find their places - and be true to themselves - in a rapidly evolving world. Mrs. Everything is an ambitious, richly textured journey through history - and herstory - as these two sisters navigate a changing America over the course of their lives.

 

An electric novel not just about who we want to be with but who we want to be. Charming and wise, knowing and witty, this is a novel about power and influence, ego and loyalty, womanhood and ambition. At its heart, The Female Persuasion is about the flame we all believe is flickering inside of us, waiting to be seen and fanned by the right person at the right time. It's a story about the people who guide and the people who follow (and how those roles evolve over time), and the desire within all of us to be pulled into the light.

 

A beautiful and timely exploration of devastating loss, unbreakable family bonds, and the overwhelming power of love. 

 

 

A striking and surprising debut novel from an exhilarating new voice, Such a Fun Age is a big-hearted story about race and privilege, set around a young black babysitter, her well-intentioned employer, and a surprising connection that threatens to undo them both.

 

Based on the column of the same name that appeared in The Toast, Hey Ladies! is a laugh-out-loud book that follows a fictitious group of eight 20- and-30-something female friends for one year of holidays, summer house rentals, dates, brunches, breakups, and, of course, the planning of a disastrous wedding. This instantly relatable story is told entirely through emails, texts, DMs, and every other form of communication known to man.   

 

A murderous, dreamy delight, this is a haunting portrait of grief, obsession, and the bond between two sisters never truly given the chance to know one another.

 

From the number-one best-selling author of Eat Pray Love, a delicious novel of glamour, sex, and adventure, about a young woman discovering that you don't have to be a good girl to be a good person.

 

An electrifying story of two ambitious friends and the dark choices they make to become internet famous.

 

A heart-skipping portrait of artistic ambition, friendship, and the tenderness of youth. With heart, clarity, and poignant understanding, Aja Gabel examines the relationships between trust, love, and the magical, messy world of making music.
