Hardback. Condition: Good. A "refreshing" (Kirkus Reviews), unpretentious, and uplifting story about a father and son reconnecting and finding happiness in the most unlikely circumstances. Danny's life is falling apart. His eleven-year-old son, Will, hasn't spoken since the death of his mother in a car crash a year earlier, and Danny has just been fired from his construction job. He's behind on the rent and his landlord is threatening to break his legs if he doesn't pay soon. Danny needs money, and fast. After observing street performers in a local park, Danny spends his last few dollars on a tattered panda costume, impulsively deciding to become a dancing bear. While performing one day, Danny spots his son being bullied by a group of older boys. Danny chases them off, and Will opens up for the first time since his mom died, unaware that the man in the panda costume is his father. Afraid of disclosing his true identity, Danny comforts his son. But will Danny lose Will's trust once he reveals who he is? And will he be able to dance his way out of despair? Filled with a delightful cast of characters including Danny's Ukrainian best friend Ivan, Bear Necessity is "a moving, sensitive story that is also very funny, and a perfect literary antidote to anxious, troubled times" (Shelf Awareness).…

Hardback. Condition: Good. For readers of Stephanie Danler and Meg Wolitzer, Perfect Tunes is a breakout novel from Emily Gould about music, ambition, sacrifice, and how compromises and rebellion shape women's destinies. Have you ever wondered what your mother was like before she became your mother, and what she gave up in order to have you? As Perfect Tunes opens we meet Laura, a songwriter with a one-of-a-kind talent. Newly arrived in New York City in the early days of the new millennium, she's left behind her safe life in Ohio for the East Village, where she hopes to record her first album. But just as she begins to book gigs, she falls hard for a rock star on the rise who's as wasted as he is compelling. His accidental death leaves Laura reeling--and, she soon learns, pregnant. Obligation, confusion, and romantic delusion conspire to convince her to keep the baby, and with the intermittent help of her friend and former bandmate Callie, she begins to raise her daughter Marie alone. She struggles to keep making music, but despite her best efforts it becomes too difficult. Soon, the only songs she writes are for the infant music classes she teaches, leading drooling infants and their parents in nonsensical sing-alongs. Fourteen years later, Marie finds herself grappling with her father's legacy as she battles depression and her mother. Laura has tried to keep Marie from asking too many questions about her biological father's history, but her efforts to protect Marie may only be putting her in greater danger. When Marie runs away to track down Dylan's family, it forces both mother and daughter to confront the heartbreak at the root of their relationship. Laura must face what she's lost to motherhood and find out what parts of her former self might still be hers to reclaim. …

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. This book is a wake-up call for Baby Boomers. This generation, born between 1946 and 1964, is the first to settle in far-flung suburbs. As they age, Boomers must confront whether far-flung suburbs are suitable for their retirement years. Aging-in-place, particularly in suburbia, does not fit the conventional advise passed on to seniors. It is more complicated than modifying the home to minimize steps or curbs. The new issues are what happens when our suburban homes are oversized, too inefficient to heat and cool, and demand too much maintenance and yard work? Do big suburban homes support a high quality-of-aging, particularly when single, older women are in charge? Even more compelling, what happens if Boomers choose to age in place, but their ability to be a safe driver declines with age? Nearly 1 in 5 people beyond the age of 65 turn in the keys and no longer drive. Yet, if you settle in suburbia there are few alternatives. Seventy percent of suburban homes are beyond the reach of public transportation, and many do not have adequate sidewalks and places to walk. Aging in Suburbia is the first book to weave together the interconnectivity of home, transportation and aging. The book tackles head-on the real issues of aging that Boomers, and their adult children, have collectively chosen to push forward, and not deal with. Eventually the issue must be dealt with and there will be impacts on individual lifestyles, plus knock-on effects for real-estate markets and sales. The author, a national expert on transportation and planning, provides technology based solutions for Boomers. The last chapter of the book is a to-do list for Boomers on the brink of change. This is an important book that breaks new ground on aging in America. The Baby Boomers will be reinventing retirement, and this book is the essential guide.…
