Named one of 2021’s Best Beach Reads by Bustle ∙ Country Living ∙ Cosmopolitan ∙ Augusta Chronicle ∙ E! Online ∙ PureWow ∙ SheReads ∙ and more! Breakups, like book clubs, come in many shapes and sizes and can take us on unexpected journeys as four women discover in this funny and heartwarming exploration of friendship from the USA Today bestselling author of Ten Beach Road and My Ex-Best Friend’s Wedding. On paper, Jazmine, Judith, Erin and Sara have little in common – they’re very different people leading very different lives. And yet at book club meetings in an historic carriage house turned bookstore, they bond over a shared love of reading (and more than a little wine) as well as the growing realization that their lives are not turning out like they expected. Former tennis star Jazmine is a top sports agent balancing a career and single motherhood. Judith is an empty nester questioning her marriage and the supporting role she chose. Erin’s high school sweetheart and fiancé develops a bad case of cold feet, and Sara’s husband takes a job out of town saddling Sara with a difficult mother-in-law who believes her son could have done better – not exactly the roommate most women dream of. With the help of books, laughter, and the joy of ever evolving friendships, Jazmine, Judith, Erin and Sara find the courage to navigate new and surprising chapters of their lives as they seek their own versions of happily-ever-after.

These words encourage the notion that through our constant mishaps, which lead us to fall apart again and again, we can create and share empathy between individuals and communities.

Now an original movie on Prime Video starring Anne Hathaway and Nicholas Galitzine! When Solène Marchand, the thirty-nine-year-old owner of a prestigious art gallery in Los Angeles, takes her daughter, Isabelle, to meet her favorite boy band, she does so reluctantly and at her ex-husband’s request. The last thing she expects is to make a connection with one of the members of the world-famous August Moon. But Hayes Campbell is clever, winning, confident, and posh, and the attraction is immediate. That he is all of twenty years old further complicates things. What begins as a series of clandestine trysts quickly evolves into a passionate relationship. It is a journey that spans continents as Solène and Hayes navigate each other’s disparate worlds: from stadium tours to international art fairs to secluded hideaways in Paris and Miami.

These three groundbreaking works by Julio Cortázar—a major figure of world literature and one of the founders of the Latin American Boom—are published together in one volume for the first time, in honor of the centenary of his birth. With his influential “counternovel” HOPSCOTCH and his unforgettable short stories, Cortázar earned a place among the most innovative authors of the twentieth century. HOPSCOTCH is a nonlinear novel about an Argentinean writer living in Paris; it consists of 155 short chapters that the author advises the reader to read out of order. BLOW-UP and WE LOVE GLENDA SO MUCH bring together the most famous of Cortázar’s short fiction, including “Axolotl,” “End of the Game,” “The Night Face Up,” “Continuity of Parks,” “Bestiary,” and “Blow-Up”. These are stories in which invisible beasts stalk children in their homes, the reader of a mystery finds out that he is the murderer’s intended victim, an injured motorcyclist is pursued by Aztec warriors, and a man becomes a salamander in a Parisian zoo. In Cortázar’s work, laws of nature, physics, and narrative fall away, leaving us with an astonishing new view of the world.

"It's the summer after junior year of college, and Grace is looking forward to going to LA with her boyfriend, Josh. When he unexpectedly dumps her, she's left with a hole in her heart and in her summer schedule. Her (very wealthy) best friend, Tiff, along with their new friend, Camille, a French foreign exchange student, come to the rescue and whisk her away to a beach house in Cancun for a week of R&R. Little do Tiff and Camille know, though, that's where Josh is headed, with his maybe-new-girlfriend Caity, Grace's #1 rival in their school's theater program and the daughter of a famed Mexican filmmaker. Grace feels confident that she can balance having fun with her girlfriends with trying to win Josh back. But then she meets Daniel, who is in Cancun working at his uncle's soccer camp. Daniel turns out to be everything Josh isn't-a good listener, genuinely supportive, patient in the bedroom, and encouraging. Plus, he's also biracial (half Chinese, half Mexican) and understands Grace in a way no boy ever has. Over the course of a debaucherous week, Grace will discover things-about love, her friendships, and herself-that will put the world into much clearer focus. Perfect for fans of Casey McQuiston and Christina Lauren, The Break-Up Vacation promises to be a boisterous, feel-good novel about college life, when falling in love was brand new and making friends was all that mattered"--
