Loving Edie

From the author of The Honey Bus comes a wild and emotional memoir of family and self-discovery, featuring a lovable golden retriever named Edie Meredith May had a difficult childhood, with a mother who was physically present but emotionally absent. She learned early on to fend for herself, and never had to care for anyone else. When she and her wife, Jenn, adopt Edie, a sweet golden retriever puppy with saucer brown eyes and buttery white fur, Edie wins their hearts immediately. But it isn’t long after Edie joins the family that the problems begin. Edie is an unusually anxious dog. She cowers around most people and the slightest noise sends her into a frenzy. Edie’s fears become so intense that Meredith and Jenn can’t leave the house. Is this normal puppy behavior or something more? Meredith grows determined to fix Edie, but what will she do if Edie can’t be fixed? In this poignant and heartfelt memoir, Meredith shares her unforgettable journey with Edie, and the lessons about selflessness and unconditional love that she learns along the way. From treating Edie with CBD gummies to visiting a dog medium, Meredith shows just how far she is willing to go to save her dog. But maybe Edie is secretly the one doing the saving—if Meredith will only open her heart.

Agatha Sloane’s debut book, The Devil Disguised as a Jesus Loving Lesbian, tells her story through the character of Chole. In a series of confessional letters to her beloved friend, Addie, she reveals an intense battle between the world she was born into and the world she wants to live in. Like most of us, all she wants is to be happy, loved, and to feel a sense of belonging. Unfortunately, the realities of illness, financial deficit, oppression, and addiction squashed her innocent dreams before the age of ten, leaving her to question the truth about everything—especially love. She abandoned religious piety and desperately sought to discover who Jesus is and what it means for him to be the Son of God. Each letter exposes a deeper depth of struggle, uncovering the vulnerable and innate desires that inspired her to wander the turbulent paths masked as acceptance, justice, and love. Join the author as she examines how people are tempted to walk with the devil as they seek to be the gods of their own lives—and how we can find what is truth.
