The Beachcomber Motel needs a miracle. 🏖️

Jules Whittier is starting to regret the promise she made to her grandmother on her deathbed. 😰 The motel is even more dilapidated than it looked like in the pictures and it turns out that renovating it includes working with her estranged cousins Maddie and Gina—the same cousins who caused her to fail at running the last motel.

Maddie Montgomery has made a promise to her grandmother, too. ✨ She needs to help Jules and Gina reconcile. But, as she soon finds out, that might not be the only reason Gram sent her to Shell Cove. The town needs her special brand of optimism and organization to keep it from dying out completely. 🌊

This classic, award-winning novel and the basis for the animated Disney movie is “a masterpiece, it is tops in the field of animal books” (Omaha World-Herald). 🏆

Winner of the Dutton Animal Book Award 📚 Winner of the Athenaeum Literary Award Reader’s Digest Book Club

Two animals on opposites sides of the hunt—one a loyal, domesticated companion, the other a wily, solitary trickster. 🦊 Copper is a large bloodhound mix, prized for his scenting ability. He longs for the thrill of the chase and for his human’s praise. Yet he could lose his place in the pack to any of the younger, faster dogs around him . . .

Tod the fox is familiar with the ways of men and hounds; he had been raised by and lived among them as a pup—but not for long. 🌲 Instinct drives him back into the wilderness, where he learns to spring the traps set for him, catch the attention of vixens, and survive the seasons.

In the natural order of things, Copper and Tod are enemies, but it’s the changing world around them that could prove to be the greatest threat of all . . . 💔

“No one who has the slightest interest in animals should miss reading The Fox and the Hound.” —The Plain Dealer ⭐

Mystery & Detective Literary Criticism

Fourteen novels. Fourteen poisons. Just because it’s fiction doesn’t mean it’s all made-up … 💀

Agatha Christie revelled in the use of poison to kill off unfortunate victims in her books; indeed, she employed it more than any other murder method, with the poison itself often being a central part of the novel. 🔬 Her choice of deadly substances was far from random – the characteristics of each often provide vital clues to the discovery of the murderer. With gunshots or stabbings the cause of death is obvious, but this is not the case with poisons. How is it that some compounds prove so deadly, and in such tiny amounts?

Christie’s extensive chemical knowledge provides the backdrop for A is for Arsenic, in which Kathryn Harkup investigates the poisons used by the murderer in fourteen classic Agatha Christie mysteries. ⚗️ It looks at why certain chemicals kill, how they interact with the body, the cases that may have inspired Christie, and the feasibility of obtaining, administering and detecting these poisons, both at the time the novel was written and today. A is for Arsenic is a celebration of the use of science by the undisputed Queen of Crime. 👑

What drew me in: Kathryn Harkup brilliantly merges chemistry, criminology, and literary analysis to reveal the scientific accuracy behind Agatha Christie’s most famous poisonings, making this an absolute must-read for mystery fans who’ve ever wondered how realistic those death scenes really were. Perfect for anyone who loves the intersection of science and detective fiction!
