Let me tell you that I devoured this book. A murder mystery set in an Old West-inspired fantasy town, where the social order is based on the existence of angels & demons. In 200 propulsive pages, we learn how far our protagonist, Celeste, will go to protect the person she holds most dear: her younger sister. Plus, did I mention there are some (ahem) pretty steamy scenes between Celeste and her former demon lover? Yes, yes please to all of this. [Adrienne]

I was intrigued from the very beginning, and then I was enthralled when I realized Polk pays tribute to Marlowe's Faust, which I love. In the true spirit of Noir, this novella speeds past & takes sharp turns. [Blanca]

Having grown up in Central Washington, I've always felt a little shocked when folks are unfamiliar with Hanford. Too few know about the immense harm Hanford has caused to surrounding ecosystems and communities - particularly to Indigenous communities. This new book helps explain what is known and still unknown about this environmental disaster in our backyard, including the risks Hanford *continues* to pose. [Adrienne]

Everyone compares this book to The Hunger Games. The problem is: I love this book and could care less about The Hunger Games. Maybe it’s the mythology element or the casual queerness I love. Either way, this is a high stakes fantasy that adults and teens will love with a great love story. [Danielle]

The Book of Tea (Paperback)

$10.95

ISBN: 9781595400451

Availability: Special Order

Published: 1st World Library - Literary Society - September 1st, 2004

At its core, The Book of Tea is about Zen, Taoism, and chado, or teaism. Originally written in English in 1906, this work is more importantly a protest. Okakura pushes back against imperialism, colonization, capitalism, and Western caricatures of "The East." This book is a pleasant and unexpected riot! [Clover]
