Summer may be over but we’re not quite ready to let go and accept that autumn and its drizzle has descended on us. We have found the perfect way to prolong our summer for just that little bit longer, and here is how you can too!

Natalka Burian’s ‘Welcome to the Slipstream’ will warm your heart and act as a little slice of sunshine you can take with you into the colder seasons. And we have three copies up for grabs in this ‘Welcome to the Slipstream giveaway.

Bright lights, big trouble

Fans of Laurie Halse Anderson’s ‘Speak‘ and Judy Gregerson’s ‘Bad Girls Club‘ will relate to this story about a girl traumatized by her brilliant mother’s serious mental illness

Like a grown-up Eloise from the picture book, the main character, Van, lives in an upscale casino in glitzy Las Vegas, giving readers entree into a crazy world that few ever get to see
Based on real life events witnessed by the author, a harrowing look at the dangers of self-help cults that promise insight and instead deliver destruction

With her mother, a brilliant businesswoman with fragile mental health, Van arrives in Las Vegas at the Silver Saddle casino, where Alex, a college student, is assigned to “babysit” her. Van is used to having to land on her feet, because her mother and her surrogate grandmother move from city to city all the time like corporate gypsies, but Alex introduces Van, a talented musician, to a group where her guitar skills may shine. But just as she’s about to play her first gig, her mother is lured in by a con man promising a “vision quest” in Arizona, and Van must go on the road to find and save her mom.
