After Jacks, the Prince of Hearts, betrays her, Evangeline Fox swears she'll never trust him again.

Bunns Rabbit / by Barillaro, Alan.;
"When Bunns is born with small but perfectly functional rabbit ears, the warren is abuzz with auguries. Surely such short ears spell bad luck for the community. Sheltered in her family's burrow, Bunns listens to the rhythm of her mother's heartbeat-Thump, thump, thump-a song of home and belonging. Her father explains that unlike a rabbit's words or thumping feet, a heartsong cannot lie. But the unknown world of the meadow, the sounds and smells above, call to Bunns. When at last she's ready to brave the staring and whispering of neighbors who fear her because she's different, and the disapproving elders who threaten to banish her family, she finds a world beyond the warren where myths and riddles, magic voyages, and important new friends await. Can the "bad omen bunny" follow her own heartsong to a destiny-a wish-meant just for her? Academy Award-winning director, writer, and animator Alan Barillaro's graceful storytelling, warm illustrations, and dramatic graphic panels weave light and dark into a seamless tapestry to enchant children and adults alike"--

This shining life : a novel / by Kline, Harriet,author.;
"Meet Ollie. He's eleven years old. He loves rules, has memorized every world capital and every soccer player in the Premier League, and hasn't yet met a Killer Sodoku puzzle he can't solve. He hates being asked two questions at once, or when grown-ups use words with double meanings. He loves his family fiercely, but sometimes he cannot control his temper. And now, he must face a sudden tragedy for which there is no solution. When Ollie's happy-go-lucky, larger-than-life father, Rich, dies of brain cancer, Ollie's life is thrown into disarray. His mother, Ruth, won't get out of bed. His aunt Nessa, Rich's best friend, tries to take charge in her forceful, no-nonsense way, but to no avail. His eccentric grandmother, who lives in a ramshackle cottage in the woods, wants them to move in with her. His other grandparents are struggling with their own health issues as they mourn the loss of their only son. The only thing that makes sense to Ollie is the puzzle he's convinced his dad left behind for him to solve: six gifts, one for each member of the family, that will spell out the secret he's sure his dad figured out right before he died: what it means to be alive. Alternating between Ollie's point of view and the five other members of his family, this beautiful, touching novel paints a portrait of a family who must learn to come together in their grief. How these six characters each undertake this journey of healing is at the heart of this deeply poignant yet ultimately uplifting read"--

The Woodsmoke Women's Book of Spells A Novel [electronic resource] : by Greenlaw, Rachel.aut; cloudLibrary;
"The Woodsmoke Women's Book of Spells captivated me from the very first page... I absolutely treasured it from beginning to end." &#x2014;Cecelia Ahern, New York Times bestselling author In a magical new direction for&#xA0;One Christmas Morning&#xA0;author Rachel Greenlaw, an evocative and mysterious story about lost love and the magic of coming home, for readers of Adrienne Young and Breanne Randall. There is an old tale woven through the mountain town of Woodsmoke about a stranger who appears as the first snow falls in winter, who will disappear without a trace as the frost thaws in spring, leaving a broken heart behind. Carrie Morgan ran from Woodsmoke ten years ago, and the decision has haunted her ever since. Spending a decade painting and drifting around Europe, she tries to forget her family&#x2019;s legacy and the friends she left behind. But the Morgan women have always been able to harness the power of the mountains surrounding the town, and their spells&#x2014;and curses&#x2014;are sewn into the soil. The mountains, they say, never forget. Sure enough, when Carrie&#x2019;s grandmother dies and leaves behind her dilapidated cottage, she returns to renovate&#x2014;certain she will only be there for one winter. She meets Matthieu as the temperature dips, a newcomer who offers to help refurbish the cottage. Before long, and despite warnings from her great-aunt Cora of the old stories, Carrie finds herself falling for the charming stranger. But when the frost thaws in spring, Matthieu goes missing. Carrie is convinced he&#x2019;s real, and he&#x2019;s in danger. As she fights her way across the mountains to find him, she must confront all the reasons why she left Woodsmoke and decide whether the place she&#x2019;s spent the last decade running from is the home she&#x2019;s been searching for. Rachel Greenlaw, the beloved author of&#xA0;One Christmas Morning,&#xA0;returns with another beautifully crafted, emotionally charged, and romantic tale about lost love and the magic of coming home. "I immediately fell under the spell of this artfully crafted world that I swore I was in a rundown cottage in the middle of the mountains... A perfect read for witch season." &#x2014;Kate Robb, author of This Spells Love

Otherworldly [electronic resource] : by Lukens, F.T..aut; cloudLibrary;
A skeptic and a supernatural being make a crossroads deal to achieve their own ends only to get more than they bargained for in this lively young adult romantic adventure from the New York Times bestselling author of Spell Bound and So This Is Ever After. Seventeen-year-old Ellery is a non-believer in a region where people swear the supernatural is real. Sure, they&#x2019;ve been stuck in a five-year winter, but there&#x2019;s got to be a scientific explanation. If goddesses were real, they wouldn&#x2019;t abandon their charges like this, leaving farmers like Ellery&#x2019;s family to scrape by. Knox is a familiar from the Other World, a magical assistant sent to help humans who have made crossroads bargains. But it&#x2019;s been years since he heard from his queen, and Knox is getting nervous about what he might find once he returns home. When the crossroads demons come to collect Knox, he panics and runs. A chance encounter down an alley finds Ellery coming to Knox&#x2019;s rescue, successfully fending off his would-be abductors. Ellery can&#x2019;t quite believe what they&#x2019;ve seen. And they definitely don&#x2019;t believe the nonsense this unnervingly attractive guy spews about his paranormal origins. But Knox needs to make a deal with a human who can tether him to this realm, and Ellery needs to figure out how to stop this winter to help their family. Once their bargain is struck, there&#x2019;s no backing out, and the growing connection between the two might just change everything.

In Gad we trust : a tell-some / by Gad, Josh,1981-author.;
Josh Gad is an award-winning actor, singer, and comedian. He is known for voicing Olaf in the Frozen franchise, playing Elder Arnold Cunningham in the Broadway musical The Book of Mormon , and LeFou in the live-action adaptation of Disney's Beauty and the Beast. For the first and possibly last time, Josh Gad dives into a wide array of personal topics: the lasting impact of his parents divorce; how he struggled with weight and self-image; his first big break; how everyone was sure his most successful ventures (both on the big screen and the stage) would fail; his take on fatherhood, and so much more. This trip down the rabbit hole of overly personal stories will distract readers from climate change, the downward descent of democracy in Western civilization, and the existential threat that AI poses to Drake's music with never-before-seen photos and few-to-no spelling errors. Whether you know him from Disney or Broadway, YouTube, the silver screen, or not at all, one fact remains: Josh's work never fails to bring people together (as long as they're alive.) His delightful debut, written in the tradition of Amy Poehler, Jim Gaffigan, and Mindy Kaling, reminds us to keep going, even when the chips and doubters are stacked against you.
