Margot Douaihy's 'Scorched Grace' is a dark love song to Catholicism and New Orleans and a thriller after writer-publisher Gillian Flynn's heart.

Molly Stern announced Thursday that she is starting Zando, an independent publishing company that will team up with influencers and brands to promote books.

The Maronite Church is the largest Christian denomination in Lebanon and part of the Eastern Catholic Church.
