Wildfire : K. Vann O’Brien
Wildfire
Savanna arrives in Jessop, Texas with memories of her mother throbbing in her chest and a grumpy rescue dog trailing behind. Her father’s goal is to renovate and sell her mother’s childhood home. And to piece Savanna back together after her mother’s death. But the people in this small dusty town look at her – the girl with her mother’s eyes – and see someone else.
They see someone they loved – or hated – someone who left them long ago. When a wildfire breaks out across neighboring farmland, the boy next door calls on Savanna to help the victims driven from their homes.
Dev is an artist with kind eyes and a fierce painting of her mother on his bedroom wall. But Savanna is drawn to Blake, a reclusive boy with a scar running down his face like a teardrop, who looks at Savanna as if she put it there. The three friends rally to bring relief to the evacuees.
But when they face the fire of prejudice, they must rely on each other to get through the blaze unscathed.

The Girl With the Blue Umbrella : Heather Awad
The Girl With the Blue Umbrella
The Girl With the Blue Umbrella is Heather Awad’s first published collection of poetry. She has been writing for most of her adult life, self-schooled in poetry writing and influenced by some of the greats, such as Billy Collins and Stephen Dunn.
Awad’s poetry is simplistic in style yet she manages to pull you into each poem as if you were wandering around inside her mind, seeing the world as she lays it out for you.
Much of her work comes from her own personal life experiences and then some is from her whimsical imagination. Imagery in her poetry is crystal-clear and free of confusing verses. In each of the sixty-two poems in this collection, you can see Awad’s sense of understanding and compassion within herself and the world around her.
Keep this collection with you wherever you go, to read your favorites again and again.

In Kala’s Hands : Mary Crocco
In Kala’s Hands : A Lakota Sioux Proclamation,
by Mary Crocco, is about a special young woman named Kala, who spends her first twenty-four years as a wannabe artist. Kala has no talent, which makes her life miserable as she suffers humiliation from her teachers and classmates. Always having support from her friends and family doesn’t make up for her pensive sadness. Aware her daily scribbles lack talent, she retains her passion.
Living in Rapid City, South Dakota, Kala visits art galleries and museums so often, the staff knows her intimately. Hoping to work at a gallery is a dream that she prepares for by educating herself through college in art history.
Washing dishes at home, Kala suffers a horrific accident and mangles her right hand. During her emergency room visit, an unexpected visitor appears, Howahkan, from the Lakota Sioux Nation, and wraps a sacred blanket around her shoulders while reminding her of a proclamation declared on the day of her birth. Before she leaves the hospital, her hand is miraculously cured, which results in Kala possessing artistic talent. Shocking Kala, but understanding she now has a destiny to fulfill, absorbs her existence.
Family and friends step up to assist Kala with her new purpose in life as an artist. Her boyfriend, Todd, suggests a trip to The Pine Ridge Reservation. The trip reveals Kala’s destiny and she fulfills her proclamation by opening her own art gallery while using the profits to build an art school near the reservation.
Unconditional support from Kala’s family and friends, before and after her accident, plays a major role in her success. Life events provided Kala the tools for her trips to the reservation, where she maintains much needed art education for the residents. I recommend this book to readers who like stories of family, history, and culture.

Queen of Green : V.E. Rooney
Queen of Green
How, in the space of six years, did Alison Reynolds rise from a street-wise teenager to become the head of one of the most feared and sophisticated organised crime rings in the world?
In 1997, she was convicted for her part in organising one of the UK’s largest and most audacious drug smuggling conspiracies, which involved a consignment of 520 kilos of cocaine with an estimated street value of almost £40 million being shipped directly from Venezuela to the UK.
Two years into her sentence, Reynolds agrees to be interviewed by a journalist about her criminal career and the events that led to her being imprisoned. Expecting a reluctant and impenetrable interview subject, the journalist is shocked at just how open Reynolds is about her drug-dealing exploits.
Starting from early childhood, Reynolds recalls the defining – and sometimes traumatic – moments of her life as she was growing up, which put her on the path to becoming the UK’s single biggest cocaine importer.
As a teenager selling £10 bags of weed to her friends, Reynolds’ life is changed forever when she comes face to face with Sean Kerrigan, one of Liverpool’s most feared gang lords. Unknowingly, they find in each other their ideal accomplice – their perfect partner in crime.
Reynolds’ disclosures shock the journalist to her core – and it becomes chillingly clear that imprisonment is not the end of Reynolds’ story.
“So you want to know how I got started?
Well, you could talk to the people I grew up with, you could talk to old friends and neighbours, some of the people I worked with. But there are some people who won’t talk to you. Some are in jail. Some have disappeared. Some are dead. And you may find your house firebombed as a warning to you to stop being nosey and mind your own business.
You may want to dig up the newspaper reports, Police files, talk to Customs officers, lawyers, judges, politicians. Do you seriously think any of them will cough up?
Well, I have plenty of time on my hands and it’s time to correct some lies, dispel some myths and give it to you straight. You may be wondering whether I’m exaggerating or making stuff up. After all, on the surface, it does sound far-fetched, even to me. Sometimes even I can’t believe how it all happened. But I have no reason to lie. This is how it all happened. I was at the centre of it. I made it happen.”
