We Measure the Earth with our Bodies is Tsering Yangzom Lama’s debut novel—and what a debut it is! The author invites the reader into a multi-generational migration experience, exploring the interconnectedness of family over space and time while considering the meaning of home when one is physically separated from the land of their ancestors.

Tracking the Caribou Queen is a beautifully written memoir about growing up in Canada’s North. As a young girl, author Margaret MacPherson and her family move to Yellowknife, where her father was a school administrator and her mother a nurse during the 1960s and ‘70s. The move is a culture shock for the family, but MacPherson quickly adjusts and grows up deeply attracted to the land, to Indigenous culture and traditions, and to the people of the NWT. Yet, just as deeply, she remains separate from it. Here, the author navigates through colonial legacies, systemic racism, as well as her own role and participation in those realities.

If you’re looking for romance and whimsy and magic, look no further than Jeanette Lyne’s newest novel. If you are suffering from a case of the morbs, The Apothecary’s Garden is your balm. Enchantments abound and broken hearts become whole in this spellcasting novel.
