A Memoir of Identity, Faith, and Family<br />
by Garrard Conley<br />
The son of a Baptist pastor and deeply embedded in church life<br />
in small town Arkansas, as a young man Garrard Conley was<br />
terrified and conflicted about his sexuality.<br />
When Garrard was a nineteen-year-old college student, he was<br />
outed to his parents, and was forced to make a life-changing<br />
decision: either agree to attend a church-supported conversion<br />
therapy program that promised to “cure” him of homosexuality; or risk<br />
losing family, friends, and the God he had prayed to every day of his<br />
life. Through an institutionalised Twelve-Step Program heavy on Bible study, he was<br />
supposed to emerge heterosexual, ex-gay, cleansed of impure urges and stronger in his<br />
faith in God for his brush with sin. Instead, even when faced with a harrowing and brutal<br />
journey, Garrard found the strength and understanding to break out in search of his true<br />
self and forgiveness.<br />
By confronting his buried past and the burden of a life lived in shadow, Garrard traces<br />
the complex relationships among family, faith, and community. At times heartbreaking,<br />
at times triumphant, this memoir is a testament to love that survives despite all odds.<br />
She Was The Quiet One<br />
by Michele Campbell<br />
The gripping new novel from Sunday Times bestselling author Michele Campbell<br />
Because murderers are never who you expect…<br />
She was the quiet one… but is she guilty?<br />
For twin sisters Rose and Bel, enrolling at the prestigious new boarding school<br />
should have been a fresh start. But with its sinister rituals and traditions, Odell<br />
soon brings out a deadly rivalry between the sisters.<br />
For Sarah and husband Heath, the chance to teach at Odell seems like the best<br />
thing that ever happened to their small family – a chance to rise through the ranks<br />
and put the past behind them.<br />
Until one dark night ends in murder.<br />
But who’s guilty and who’s telling the truth? And who’s been in on it all along..?<br />
