A young Métis man searching for his missing father finds himself arguing with a dying glacier? Take a look at what bookseller Joanna Graham from @mcnallyrobinson.com had to say about A Glacier’s Guide to Dying
[Combining wildfire evacuations with family turmoil, the pursuit of a pregnant buffalo with the search for a missing man, and the loving (and infuriating) interactions between siblings and parents with the surreal world of giants and talking glaciers, A Glacier's Guide to Dying is a breathtaking story that I struggled to put down. Michelle Porter's writing is urgent, colloquial, funny, and powerful. She strikes the perfect tone for a novel that blends our collective ecological grief with the personal longings of its characters as they struggle to live between shifting, complicated worlds.] quote from bookseller Joanna Graham from McNally Robinson Booksellers.

Author Amanda Peters returns with her latest novel following one woman as she confronts buried truths, lost love and the fragile future she alone must protect. Here’s why bookseller Angela Torgerson from @mcnallyrobinson.com fell in love with this story.

Find it at your local indie bookstore now.
The Birthing Tree by Amanda Peters: dark blue cover with gold block title over sketched oak leaves, a round "The Booksellers' List Selection" badge, and a short bookseller blurb praising its emotional, Mi'kmaq-rooted, multigenerational story. [The Birthing Tree is a quietly compelling yet intensely emotional novel. The novel follows the journey of a young woman as she seeks to uncover long-buried family secrets and come to terms with herself and her legacy, all while feeling the pull of the Mi'kmaq traditions that call to her. A lush and beautiful read with a main character, Atiel, that you will be unable to let go of when the last page is read!]
