“Reflections on Life’s Illusions” by Jane Gallagher
In “Reflections on Life’s Illusions: A Memoir of Culture and Consciousness,” Jane Gallagher dives into the pool of memory to explore how her generation — and her own consciousness — were shaped by the cultural revolutions of the mid-20th century. Blending personal recollection with social commentary, she revisits the explosive years between 1954 and 1975, when McCarthyism, the Vietnam War, Watergate and systemic racism collided with the rise of feminism, civil rights and environmental awareness.
Gallagher’s lyrical prose interweaves stories of her search for identity, love and purpose with reflections on the larger social forces that defined an era. Alongside the voices of leading thinkers, she invites readers to look beyond nostalgia toward a deeper understanding of how culture molds belief — and how awareness can transform it. Culminating in a life-changing hike through the mountains of Peru, this memoir offers a wise and graceful invitation to rediscover wonder, curiosity and belonging.

“Souls Adrift” by Max MacCaigh
The whispers find her. They always find her.
October 1873 — Chicago, after the Great Fire. Three broken souls board a steamship to escape despair and the city’s ashes. Maribeth, born to wealth in England but now penniless in America, searches for purpose. First Mate Atticus, a widowed Civil War veteran, longs for oblivion. Nine-year-old Kristi, an orphaned Norwegian immigrant, has nowhere left to turn.
As Maribeth and Atticus take Kristi under their wings, love begins to heal them all. But with the good comes darkness — chilling visions, ghostly voices and deaths that defy reason. What begins as a voyage to new life may end as their final crossing.
A historical novel of supernatural suspense, “Souls Adrift” is a sea story, a ghost story and a love story — “Titanic” meets “The Others.”

“Touch Me” (Dark Sides, Book One) by Lynn Crandall
The darkness is growing.
In the City of Auralia, bounty hunter Payson Silver can feel it pulsing through every cry for help. Born an Aeon, descended from the evolved people of Atlantis, she was born to restore balance — to counter dark energy with light. With her partner and soulmate Braden Powers, she uses her psychometric gifts to battle the Dark Aspects, forces bent on plunging the world into darkness.
But when a former Aeon, Diane Butler, twists Braden’s mind and traps him in a false reality, Payson must race against time to save him — while the fate of the world hangs in the balance. Ten days. One impossible choice.
As light and darkness collide, love becomes both weapon and weakness. The fate of Auralia — and humanity itself — depends on whether Payson can conquer the darkness within and rekindle the power of love strong enough to pierce the shadows.
