This Time Next Year By Sophie Cousens
It Came from the Sky Seven By Farzana Doctor By Chelsea Sedoti
Minnie Cooper knows two things with certainty: that her New Year’s birthday is unlucky, and that it’s all because of Quinn Hamilton, a man she’s never met. Their mothers gave birth to them at the same hospital just after midnight on New Year’s Day, but Quinn was given the cash prize for being the first baby born in London in 1990--and the name Minnie was meant to have, as well. With luck like that, it’s no wonder each of her birthdays has been more of a disaster than the one before.
This is the absolutely true account of how Lansburg, Pennsylvania was invaded by aliens and the weeks of chaos that followed. There were sightings of UFOs, close encounters, and even abductions. There were believers, Truth Seekers, and, above all, people who looked to the sky and hoped for more. Only...there were no aliens.
When Sharifa accompanies her husband on a marriagesaving trip to India in 2016, she thinks that she’s going to research her greatgreat-grandfather, a wealthy business leader and philanthropist. What captures her imagination is not his rags-toriches story, but the mystery of his four wives, missing from the family lore. She ends up excavating much more than she had imagined.
The Love Scam By MaryJanice Davidson Rake Tarbell is in trouble. When the fabulously wealthy and carefree bachelor wakes up horribly hungover in Venice, it’s not something that would normally be a problem... except he has no idea how he got there from California. Or who stole his wallet. Or who emptied his bank account of millions. Or who in the world is Lillith, the charming little girl claiming to be his long lost daughter. For the first time in his life, Rake is on his own and throwing Benjamins around isn’t going to solve his problem.

Carrie Thimmes 614.572.1243 cthimmes@cityscenecolumbus.com 46 • August/September 2020
Laurie Frankel’s This Is How It Always Is is a novel about revelations, transformations, fairy tales, and family. And it’s about the ways this is how it always is: Change is always hard and miraculous and hard again, parenting is always a leap into the unknown with crossed fingers and full hearts, children grow but not always according to plan. And families with secrets don’t get to keep them forever. www.dublinlifemagazine.com
