Gen-X author and Oldster Magazine/Memoir Land editor Sari Botton reads her celebrated memoir, "And You May Find Yourself...", about finding yourself later in life—after first getting lost in all the wrong places. As Botton discovers, the wrong places famously include her own self-suppression and misguided efforts to please others (mostly men). In a series of candid, reflective, sometimes humorous essays, Botton describes coming to feminism and self-actualization as an older person; second (and third and fourth) chances; and how maybe it's never too late to find your way...assuming you're lucky enough to live long. "In her edgy, tender, witty way, Sari Botton has written a book for any woman who ever contorted herself to fit culturally imposed ideals, in other words, all of us. In witnessing the ways Sari has fought and failed and flourished, in the poignancy and laughter, there is deep wisdom and an abundance of spirit."—Beverly Donofrio, author of "Riding in Cars with Boys""A fresh and humorous meditation on the trials and tribulations of a smart Gen-X young woman who tries to extricate herself from a straitlaced suburban upbringing to become a cool, East Village girl, only to keep falling for the wrong man, the wrong therapist, and the wrong job... until she doesn't. Botton's hilarious and self-aware pages on dating all the wrong men recall some of Candace Bushnell's original Sex and the City essays and Helen Fielding's Bridget Jones' Diary." —Catherine Texier, author of "Breakup""A humanizing, humble, and hard look at a life. Investigative journalism of the soul. Sari Botton's And You May Find Yourself is like the older sister of My Misspent Youth by Meghan Daum. You will absolutely find yourself in this intelligent, clever, and clear-hearted book."—Chloe Caldwell, author of "The Red Zone: A Love Story"

A Dangerous Season, the third Sheriff Matt Callahan mystery novel, depicts life on Callahan's iced-in island during a brutal winter. Callahan, who originally sought peace on Nicolet Island after a fatal acid attack on his fiancée, one that left him both physically and emotionally disfigured, now discovers a lone young girl hiding in the island wilderness. She is unable to speak but agile at surviving on her own in the desperate cold. In the quest to discover the girl's identity, Callahan teams with the Ojibwe tribal police and is drawn to a place where myth and reality merge deep in the Northwoods' most dangerous season. Besides the mystery of the girl and what brought her to Nicolet Island, this winter begets other dangerous conundrums: contaminated lake fish, an island murder, and a dead body in the woods. As Callahan's experienced young deputy, Amanda, and her neophyte partner, Nick, work with Callahan to solve the island's crimes, they face the additional challenge of piggybacking a professional relationship on one that began as deeply personal. Callahan faces his own relationship challenges when he and Julie, his romantic partner, disagree over the eventual placement of the found girl. Knitting A Dangerous Season together is the indelible sense of place the Northwoods convey. In contrast to the bustling tourist environment of earlier Callahan novels, winter imbues Nicolet Island with both icy danger and lyrical beauty-a fitting environment for a teeth-chattering thriller.

Like every good and sane person, Cassia Mooseroot spent her whole life avoiding the Ceoghast, a land of horrors where witches, hungry monsters, and soul-eating magic rule. Unlike those people, her ties to the Ceoghast run deeper than she could have known. After her father casts her out and exiles her from her hometown, Cassia arrives in Midt, a remote village on the edge of the Ceoghast. Here, no one knows her secrets or history. Among the devout townspeople committed to keeping the Ceoghast from encroaching on the Tenet Lands, Cassia begins to shape a new life, hopeful she’s finally left the shadows of her past behind her. But when she joins a volunteer border patrol that takes her closer to the Ceoghast than she’s ever been, she attracts a creature from the dark. Seeing this, her patrol partner calls her a witch. Accused of a crime punishable by immediate death, she flees into the Ceoghast. In more danger than she’s ever imagined, Cassia accepts help from a mysterious stranger, a ceogot who takes her to a place of shelter. But everyone she meets in the Ceoghast has their own agenda, and staying in the cursed lands puts more than just her life at risk – her very soul is on the line. Desperate to find her way home and stop the execution that awaits her there, she devises a daring plan to kidnap the Heart Witch of Speckled Hound Hollow and drag her back to Midt to prove her devotion to the community. But as her plan comes to fruition, Cassia begins to question: In which world does she truly belong?
