“The Heart Is A Star” by Megan Rogers
This story follows Layla Burns – an exhausted woman juggling a demanding job, a disintegrating marriage, her children, a needy lover, and a histrionically unstable mother. However, this year – everything changes. When her mother rings just before Christmas, she doesn’t follow the usual script. Soon, Layla drops everything to rush to her childhood home on the wild west coast of Tasmania. She’s determined to finally confront her mother – find out what really happened to her father – and lay some demons to rest.
“Emboldened” by Belinda Alexandra

In a compelling and exquisite blend of memoir and history, Belinda shows readers that, no matter what challenge they might be facing, there is always the possibility of building a bold life full of meaning again from the ashes.
