Emma Churchman's extraordinary memoir follows her search for identity as the eldest child of a woman with one of the most extreme cases of multiple personality disorder (now known as dissociative identity disorder) diagnosed in the 1980s. Never knowing which of her mother's alters would emerge—the playful child, the raging demon, or the suicidal depressive—Emma became the family's anchor in an ocean of psychological chaos, raising her three younger brothers while navigating a mother who had no clear identity.

How does a psychologist fail to recognize that her intelligent, sensitive, and book-loving mother has created "the worst hoarder house ever seen?" After making the horrifying discovery that her mother had no water in her house for at least two years, Deborah Derrickson Kossmann begins the otherworldly excavation of a childhood home she hasn't been inside for three decades. Moving back and forth in time, from this surreal nightmare of an archaeological dig to recollecting her past and long buried family secrets, Kossmann seeks to untangle a web of complicated familial relationships.

At 45, Lucky finally feels like she has achieved her dreams – a lovely life with a successful career, beautiful son, adoring husband, two dogs and house in the ‘burbs. But when Lucky’s mother and 100-year-old grandfather violently attack her home, it sends her spiraling out of control. Her delicately crafted double life begins to collapse, and she is finally forced to confront decades of terror, abuse and secrets she has been hiding from everyone – including herself.

Do you ever feel like life is holding you back, but deep down, you know you’re capable of so much more? When adversity strikes, it’s easy to give in to fear, self-doubt or the belief that you’re not strong enough. But what if the toughest moments of your life were actually the making of you? In Stronger Than the Storm, Felicity Ashley shares her powerful and deeply personal story of overcoming life’s biggest challenges–from a hip replacement in her early 40s to rowing 3,000 miles across the Atlantic Ocean to facing cancer head-on.

Kathy Hirtz grew up between strength and limitation. Her father, once ambitious and athletic, lost nearly everything to polio before she was born. Her mother did everything. From that contrast, she learned early that life was fragile—and moving forward was a choice. She pursued medicine first, training in neurosurgery before building her own practice. But discipline alone was never enough. Horses followed. Then scuba diving. Then flight.

In this fourth book, Chelle turns toward the people who made her—and finally, toward herself. Chapter Eight honors two grandmothers: Annelle, who raised her and never broke a promise, and Clarene, her father’s mother, whose love she’s only now getting the chance to know. Chapter Nine is the one she’s been building toward all along—her own story, told plain: childhood, marriage, motherhood at eighteen, a career built while raising four kids alone, and the quiet cost of growing up without a father.

For forty-eight years, Chelle Franklin had one word for her father: Sterling. No last name. No town. No photograph. Just a blank line on a birth certificate and a silence her mother would not break. She grew up loved and unprotected in the same house— raised by a grandmother who gave her everything, shadowed by a stepfather’s fists, and surrounded by grown-ups who all knew something they wouldn’t say.

She grew up learning to survive what hurt her. Then she became a mother, and chose to build the safety she never had. In The Yellow Was a Lie, Cheyanna Fields tells the story she once promised herself she would never speak aloud. A story about childhood marked by secrets, silence, and the kind of betrayal that reshapes a life. But this is not a memoir about staying in the dark. It is about clawing toward the light.

Garden of Blu is a memoir about being lost in the dark, living with chronic illness, grief, and depression while discovering self-worth and growing through it all. There is a moment in life where we can make the decision to break generational patterns and bloom, despite our circumstances and roots. Misti Blu was born with multiple invisible illnesses, which went undiagnosed for most of her life. While struggling with major depressive disorder and PTSD, she was a young mother to her three children.

She hated the dishes. Not because she was lazy. Not because she didn't care. But because every pile of dirty dishes felt like proof. Proof that she was failing. Proof that she was broken. Proof that she wasn't enough. But the dishes were never really the problem. She Hated the Dishes is one woman's unfiltered journey through childhood trauma, marriage, motherhood, loss, and the stories she learned to believe about herself along the way. Stories about what it meant to be a good mother, a good wife, a productive person, and someone worthy of love.
