“An engaging blend of clean romance, drama, and science fiction. Recommended for middle and high school collections.”— School Library Journal 
In the near future, a scientific development is changing the way people have relationships. People no longer find their own spouses; they’re assigned them by the government using an AI program meant to create optimal happiness. The assignments happen at age 18, and Delphine “Del” Everett doesn’t want any part of it.
Anna Lindwasser is a writer, teacher, and student who recently left Brooklyn to start an MFA in creative writing at the University of Alabama. She is also the author of the West 44 title This Trauma Is Sponsored. When she isn’t writing, teaching, or studying, she can be found exploring her new city or reading too many shojo manga about soulmates.

Paul W. Bryant Museum

The Paul W. Bryant Museum will celebrate the book release of Remember the Rose Bowl: The Alabama Crimson Tide’s Storied 100-Year History in “The Granddaddy of Them All” by Tommy Ford and Mark Mayfield on Friday, September 18, from 6:00 p.m. – 8:00 p.m. Admission to this event is free.
The book retails for $59.95 and will be available for purchase at the Museum beginning September 18. Fans can pre-order copies now at <a href="https://bryantmuseumstore.com/remember-the-rose-bowl-pre-order/?searchuuid=a11994a6-1a6f-4319-ad4d-cf975b1a7c81&amp;search_query=remember+the+rose+bowl" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">bryantmuseumstore.com</a>.
<h2>About the Book</h2>
Remember the Rose Bowl commemorates the 100th anniversary of Alabama’s landmark appearance in the 1926 Rose Bowl — a game that forever changed the trajectory of Alabama football and helped transform the national perception of college football in the South.

On January 1, 1926, Coach Wallace Wade’s undefeated Alabama team faced the heavily favored Washington Huskies in Pasadena, California. Alabama’s dramatic 20–19 victory became one of the defining moments in Crimson Tide history, introducing Alabama football to a national audience and establishing a legacy that continues a century later.
The impact of that afternoon stretched far beyond a single football game.
Remember the Rose Bowl explores the players, coaches, games and moments that have connected Alabama to Pasadena across 100 years of Crimson Tide football. From the trailblazing 1925 team that made the journey west to the generations that followed, Ford and Mayfield tell the story of how the Rose Bowl became woven into the identity and tradition of Alabama football.
Drawing upon the collections and historical resources of the Paul W. Bryant Museum, the book brings together photographs, stories and historical details that allow readers to experience one of the most important chapters in the history of Alabama athletics.
The title Remember the Rose Bowl recalls a phrase that became part of Alabama football tradition following the Tide’s early trips west — a reminder of the standard established by the players who first carried Alabama onto the national stage.
Throughout the decades, Alabama returned to Pasadena and built a remarkable Rose Bowl legacy. Those appearances created legends, established traditions and helped cement Alabama’s place among college football’s most storied programs.
The publication is part of the Paul W. Bryant Museum’s continuing mission to collect, preserve and interpret the history of University of Alabama athletics and to ensure that the stories of the athletes, coaches and individuals who built that legacy are preserved for future generations.

A poetic journey through five decades of wonder, memory, and love, where the ordinary becomes sacred and every line leads home
The Lost Book of Life: New and Selected Poems gathers five decades of work by Charles Ghigna, a beloved and influential voice in contemporary Southern poetry, into a single, luminous volume. Blending new poems with selections from fourteen previous collections, it traces a poetic journey through nature, family, memory, and love, and celebrates the sacred woven into everyday life.
“Charles Ghigna's poems in The Lost Book of Life pulse with an evanescence of curiosity and love. They are radiant meditations on what it means to notice, to play, and to be alive.” —Kerry Madden-Lunsford, author of Werewolf Hamlet
Charles Ghigna is author of more than 5000 poems and one hundred books for children and adults. His books have been published by Disney, Random House, Scholastic, Simon &amp; Schuster and others. His poems have been published in Harper’s, The New Yorker, Rolling Stone, The Saturday Evening Post and The Wall Street Journal.
