How can the words of the past help heal the horror of the present?For as long as she can remember, Barbara Spiel has always found solace in books. Born in Germany and having come of age in a tumultuous era, she flees her home country as the Nazis rise to power in the early 1930s. Her destination? Madrid. There she''s determined to realize her long-held dream of opening a bookshop and creating a safe haven for young idealists and independent thinkers to come together to transform the world.Yet Spain isn''t immune from its own troubles. The winds of change are blowing through both city and countryside, and it''s impossible to predict what will happen. When the outbreak of the Spanish Civil War puts Barbara and everyone around her in peril--including the Spanish Socialist parliamentarian she''s fallen deeply in love with--the terror and hatred seem all too familiar. It''s like Germany all over again, only with its own cast of extremist characters.Hounded simultaneously by Stalinist checas, Francoist Facists, and the German Gestapo, Barbara fights to keep her bookstore the safe haven that she''s always imagined it would be. But with war brewing both inside Spain and outside its borders throughout the entirety of Europe--and beyond--Barbara isn''t sure who exactly she can trust, or if people really are who they claim to be.A story told with tremendous heart and astonishing historical accuracy, A Bookseller in Madrid is ultimately a story about dreams--dreaming with courage when nothing seems to make sense, and dreaming with hope when words printed on a page are all you can hold on to.

Sometimes what you think you want and what you actually want turn out to be different things . . .Rosie Waterman has one dream: to become a working actor. But lately, that hasn''t been working out. When she loses her apartment and her job on the same day, she does what she always does--puts herself out there, ready to find the next big thing. But a trip home makes her realize that while she''s been struggling to make this dream come true, all her friends have become real adults with careers and weddings and babies on the way. Rosie''s been at this for years, and she has nothing to show for it. But how does she simply let go of her dream?When she''s offered a job as the director of a regional theatre''s production of Cinderella, she jumps at the chance--even though she''s only directed in college and the job is in Door County, Wisconsin, and not in New York. She has no other offers, and at least she''ll be getting paid to do something theatrical. But when she arrives, she quickly realizes that the "regional theatre" is actually in a retirement community, and the "actors" are actually senior citizens with no acting experience whatsoever.Working on the show presents new challenges, forcing Rosie to learn how to step up and be the leader this fledgling theatre troupe needs. The more time she spends with her new cast, the more she begins to rethink what it means to dream big, especially when that big dream hasn''t turned out to be at all what she thought it would be. It''s not at all what she expected, but could it be exactly what she needs?

2024 ECPA Christian Living Book of the Year WinnerEver wonder if you’ve stumbled one too many times for God to use someone like you? Could you benefit from an encounter with God’s unending, unbending, unswerving love and devotion? If your answer is yes, it’s time for you to see how God’s grace transformed Jacob’s life.
