Books we recommend from Invisible Publishing for your giftee to unwrap
Why we love this book: We’re here for a good speculative novel and Samantha Garner’s debut more than satisfied our spec-meets-lit-nerd tendencies. In a supernatural world where tarot readings, dream visions, and vekers are part of the everyday, The Quiet is Loud is a richly crafted story about what lies beyond our understanding and the quest for true acceptance.Read a full description of The Quiet is Loud hereWhere do I find the book? Find it on All Lit Up for 15% off until Nov 28 or from your local indie bookseller with our Shop Local feature available on the book page.Â
Why we love this book: County Heirlooms: Recipes and Reflections from Prince Edward County is a cookbook and celebration of community and collaboration and food. Each contributor in the book offers a glimpse into what fuels their love for food, and what keeps them doing what they do—from cultivating honeybees and growing heirloom tomatoes to cooking for two or for crowds. This one’s a sure-fire hit for the festive season. What’s more: royalties from sales of the book will support  Food to Share, a PEC-based initiative working to address food insecurity.Read a full description of County Heirlooms hereWhere do I find the book? Find it on All Lit Up for 15% off until Nov 28 or from your local indie bookseller with our Shop Local feature available on the book page.Â
Why we love this book: This is poetry that celebrates love, nature, and female desire. A delightful collection that’s both earthy and lush, Frost & Pollen divides into two parts: one a sensuous foray into gardens; the other a retelling of The Green Knight, a character from the 14th-century Arthurian poem, told from his own perspective. An erotic and imaginative book of poems for the poetry lover on your list. Read a full description of Frost & Pollen hereWhere do I find the book? Find it on All Lit Up for 15% off until Nov 28 or from your local indie bookseller with our Shop Local feature available on the book page.Â
