From the author of the viral TikTok sensation, The Pumpkin Spice Cafe and The Cinnamon Bun Book Store, comes the only spicy grumpy x sunshine Christmas romcom you need this year!
‘A charming break from reality’ Publishers Weekly Kira North hates Christmas. Which is unfortunate since she just bought a Christmas tree farm in a town that’s too cute for its own good.
Bennett Ellis is on vacation in Dream Harbor taking a break from his life in California. And most importantly, taking a break from his latest run of disastrous dates.
After a run in with Kira in her fields, Ben has no intention of offering to help the grumpy owner set up her tree farm, despite the fact she’s clearly got no idea what she’s doing.
Kira knows she should stop being so stubborn, but her farm is not all cute and cozy like people always show on social media, it’s borderline dangerous with no heating, and she’d rather no one saw it.
But somehow fate finds Ben at Kira’s farm once more, and as Kira watches him swing an ax at the first tree, she finds herself appreciating his strength and questioning why she refused help in the first place..
Ten years after the publication of Annihilation, the surprise fourth volume in Jeff
VanderMeer’s blockbuster Southern Reach Trilogy.
When the Southern Reach Trilogy was first published a decade ago, it was an instant sensation,
celebrated in a front-page New York Times story before publication, hailed by Stephen King and
many others. Each volume climbed the bestsellers list; awards were won; the books made the rare
transition from paperback original to hardcover; the movie adaptation became a cult classic. All told,
the trilogy has sold more than a million copies and has secured its place in the pantheon of twenty-
first-century literature.
And yet for all this, for Jeff VanderMeer there was never full closure to the story of Area X. There were
a few mysteries that had gone unsolved, some key points of view never aired. There were stories left
to tell. There remained questions about who had been complicit in creating the conditions for Area X
to take hold; the story of the first mission into the Forgotten Coast—before Area X was called Area X
—had never been fully told; and what if someone had foreseen the world after Acceptance? How
crazy would they seem?
Structured in three parts, each recounting a new expedition, there are some long-awaited answers
here, to be sure, but also more questions, and profound new surprises. Absolution is a brilliant,
beautiful, and ever-terrifying plunge into unique and fertile literary territory. It is the final word on one
of the most provocative and popular speculative fiction series of our time.

A collection of the year’s best short stories, selected by celebrated bestselling author Lauren Groff, author of Matrix and The Vaster Wilds, and series editor Heidi Pitlor.
“There have never been as many exquisitely built stories in existence than there are now,” proclaims guest editor Lauren Groff in her introduction. This abundance led to a volume of robust stories with the nerve to push against narrative expectations. The Best American Short Stories 2024 boasts a collection of twenty stories that “buzz with their own strange logic.” A man becomes a tourist in his own hometown. An unemployed jeweler sails in an antique slave ship. A therapist decides to call an ex-patient years after their last session. Daring and resonant, the stories in this volume invite in Groff “a feeling that both the author and I were simultaneously discovering something together.”
