A captivating debut novel ideal for lovers of queer young adult fantasy, Eyes of Time is a compelling fantasy driven by the struggle to survive in a dangerous world, the result of the conflict between the immortal Hideki and The Alliance. Zuri wants nothing more than to protect what family she has left, her younger brother, Emin. When she meets the kind-hearted Kai, they finally escape the grasp of Hideki and try to make the most of their new ‘normal’ life.

In Force of Beauty, Mikki Taylor, editor-at-large of Essence magazine and longtime activist, introduces us to her gifted grandmother, Bessie, her glamorous mother, Modina, and how Modina’s friendship with the legendary Sarah Vaughan shaped Mikki’s childhood. Taylor’s mini-memoir is a tribute to Newark in the '50s and '60s, of cool jazz clubs and close-knit neighborhoods, a handsome house on Avon Avenue, and one family’s tale of perseverance and ingenuity in a city they all loved.
