In the highly anticipated graphic novel sequel to Meems and Feefs: Ferrets from Planet Ferretonia, Liza enters the portal and is transported from earth to the ferrets’ home planet of Ferretonia. But as Liza delves deeper into the mysteries of Ferretonia, she uncovers long-kept secrets that could change the fate of the ferrets’ world forever—like a mysterious colony of ferrets on an unmarked map of Ferretonia. 

With a blend of humor, heart, and adventure, Meems and Feefs: The Council of Ferrets, is a captivating adventure that will enchant readers of all ages.

The full-color comic is a must-read for fans of whimsical, heartwarming adventures akin to Hayao Miyazaki’s Spirited Away and Disney’s Lilo and Stitch. It’s a great read for young readers and bookworms alike.

ABOUT ITALIANISH:

Reinvent classic Italian American dishes with over 100 creative new recipes from Danny Loves Pasta’s Danny Freeman

In his second book, Italianish, he’s expanding his recipes to cover the entire spectrum of Italian American cooking, with over 100 unique and easy twists on the classics.

If you like lasagna but don’t have time to make an entire one from scratch, try Danny’s famous Lasagna Soup. If you like the tomato-basil-mozzarella flavor combination of a caprese salad, try the Caprese Steak Sandwich with Italian Salsa Verde. For lovers of traditional cannoli, the No-Bake Chocolate Cannoli Cheesecake is sure to become a new favorite.

The book is designed to be as easy to follow as possible, with a recipe index that organizes recipes by the time the dishes take to prepare. From quick bites to special occasion meals, (or somewhere in between), these fun recipes are for everyone and for every night of the week.

We’re thrilled to share the cover reveal for HON We’re thrilled to share the cover reveal for HONEYEATER by @tanaudel coming from Tor Books on September 2, 2025!

A richly imagined dark fantasy that pulses with the beautiful destruction of a town reclaimed by the natural world.

Sub-tropical Bellworth is founded on floodplains and root-bound secrets. And Charlie, remarkable only for vanished friends and a successful sister, plans to leave for good, just as soon as he deals with his dead aunt’s house. Then Grace arrives, desperate, with roses pressing up through her skin, and drags Charlie into the ghost-choked mysteries of Bellworth, uncovering the impossible consequences of loss and desire — and a choice Charlie made when he was a boy. 

But peeling back the rumors and lies that cocoon the suburb disturbs more than complacent neighbors and lost souls. And Charlie and Grace are forced to a decision that threatens not only their lives, but all they believed those lives could be.
