“Crazy, Stupid, Love meets Notting Hill. About an actress making it big and the complicated relationship she has with the guy she met as a teenager. You’ll read it in two days” —The Skimm Their meeting in a parking lot outside a high school football game was both completely forgettable and utterly life-changing. Because no matter how you look at it, it is piss-poor luck to meet the love of your life before your life has even started.

As their lives inevitably intersect, Alison and Kyle must face each other in the revealing light of their decisions.

I'm Glad That You're Happy


Book Description

“[About] accept[ing] the inevitability of change and the importance of supporting others’ success and growth.”—Publishers Weekly When a florist puts two plants in the same rosy-colored pot, he tells the bigger, stronger plant to look after the smaller, weaker one. An artist buys the plants and takes them home, where they become part of the family, celebrating happy occasions and feeling sorrowful during hard times. But as time passes and the plants grow, the pot becomes too small, and the two must be separated. While this makes the larger plant sad, it still rejoices in the way the smaller one flourishes on its own, and looks forward to the day when they will be planted in the artist’s garden to grow into trees together. Nahid Kazemi has created a charming, beautifully illustrated story about accepting growth and change in close relationships.
