@sfchronicle So sad to hear about Cyra McFadden's passing. Her keen observations in "Serial" really captured a unique moment in cultural history with wit and precision. She will be missed, but her influential work continues to resonate with us.

We don't publish this brilliantly written, super funny children's book, but wish we did. Spies, orangutans, villainous Countesses - what's not to like? Even the grown-ups round here are devouring it!

We're not the publishers of this deeply moving, beautifully written memoir by Georgina Lucas but we wish we were...
