It's not exactly a great time to meet the woman who might just be the love of her life. While the group easily shuffles around to make room for Poppy, it's not so easy fitting her life and Rhiannon's together. With the weeks counting down until her baby arrives, Poppy's going to have to decide for herself what truly makes a family.

The spare room : a novel / by Bartz, Andrea,author.;
"Crashing with a friend and her husband is more intimate-and dangerous-than anyone could imagine in this provocative new thriller from the New York Times bestselling author of the Reese's Book Club pick We Were Never Here. When the pandemic first hits, thirty-one-year-old Kelly tries to make the best of quarantine-but it soon becomes clear there are some lemons you just can't make into lemonade. She loses her job and her boyfriend in one fell swoop, and she finds herself looking for any way to get out of the apartment she's still sharing with her now-ex. So when she rekindles a friendship with a bestselling author she knows from childhood, who invites Kelly to stay with her and her husband in their Virginia mansion, she leaps at the chance. And much to Kelly's surprise, she soon realizes she's developed a bit of a crush-on both of her hosts. Even more unexpected is that both of them seem to reciprocate her feelings-and they say it's the first time they've ever brought someone else into their relationship. But that doesn't quite add up with all of the evidence Kelly keeps finding around the house. Another woman clearly has been there before her, and Kelly really can't understand what reason they would have to lie about it ... that is, until she discovers the woman is missing. Cut off from the world, intensely in love, and in way over her head, Kelly is trying desperately to uncover the truth-but the truth might just be that three is a dangerous number"--

Sorry, bro / by Voskuni, Taleen,author.;
"When Nar's non-Armenian boyfriend gets down on one knee and proposes to her in front of a room full of drunk San Francisco tech boys, she realizes it's time to find someone who shares her idea of romance. Enter her mother--armed with plenty of mom-guilt and a spreadsheet of Facebook-stalked Armenian men, she convinces Nar to attend Explore Armenia, a month-long series of events in the city. But it's not the mom-approved playboy doctor or wealthy engineer who catches her eye: it's Erebuni, a woman as equally immersed in the witchy arts as she is in preserving Armenian identity. Suddenly, with Erebuni as her wingwoman, the events feel like far less of a chore, and much more of an adventure"--

Frida Kahlo / by Judah, Hettie,author.; Kahlo, Frida.;
Includes bibliographical references and index.Step into the world of Frida Kahlo: behind the portraits and the surrealist art discover the fascinating woman who has transfixed the world. Fridamania has made Frida Kahlo's image ubiquitous: she has been reborn as a Halloween costume, Barbie doll, children's book character, textile print, phone cover and the inspiration for everything from cocktails to fashion shoots. But it is more difficult to get a clear vision of this bold and brilliant, foul-mouthed, heavy-drinking, hard-smoking, husband-stealing, occasionally bisexual, often bed-bound, wheelchair-using, needy, forthright and passionate woman. Hettie Judah sets out to correct that with this superb biography of one of the most charismatic artists of the last hundred years. Follow Frida's life through tumultuous love and life-altering accidents, towards recognition in the art world from the likes of Andre Breton and Marcel Duchamp, to becoming the first Mexican artist held at the Louvre. Judah delves into Kahlo's experiences and how these came together to inspire the art that has been described as an uncompromising depiction of the female experience and form. From an early battle with Polio, to a debilitating bus accident at 18, through love and heart ache, the life of Frida Kahlo was one of pain but a pain that bore great beauty.
