    Heap Earth Upon It - Paperback by Chloe Michelle Howarth

    Set in a remote Irish village in 1965, Heap Earth Upon It is a slow-burning, atmospheric novel about the O'Leary siblings who arrive in town under mysterious circumstances, desperate for a fresh start. When one sister grows dangerously close to Betty, a wealthy older woman, the lines between devotion and obsession blur in ways that are both tender and unsettling. Chloe Michelle Howarth writes sapphic desire under the weight of Catholic repression with a gothic tension that seeps into your bones. If you loved Sunburn, this sophomore novel goes even deeper.

    Q's about the book club?

    Allstora Tokens are your monthly key to choice. They let you decide what lands on your doorstep: the selection, another club’s pick, or something fun from The Pride Shop. Tokens give you the freedom to shape your reading life each month.
    On the 15th of your renewal month, tokens are added to your account. You’ll have 72 hours to make your selection before orders lock. We’ll send a reminder when it’s time to choose. Nothing ships until you make your selection.
    If life gets busy, we’ll still do our best to rush your book if we have stock available! Rush orders cost one token.
    Totally fine. Your tokens roll forward for up to 12 months. You can stockpile them like a dragon hoarding queer literature, then spend them when the next story (or tote bag) calls your name.
    Books ship once you redeem your tokens for that month’s selection. Orders go out during the last week of the month and usually arrive the first week of the next month. If you redeem late, we’ll do our best to get it to you quickly.
    Visit your new dashboard here: 👉https://my.allstora.com/account Log in with the same email used at checkout. If you haven’t created an account yet, select “Create Account” and you’ll receive a one-time passcode by email. Once signed in, your subscriptions, tokens, and orders will sync automatically.
    All renewals occur on the 15th of each month. On that date, your plan renews and new tokens are added to your account. Monthly plans → tokens issued monthly Quarterly plans → tokens issued every three months
    Each club’s upcoming title is announced on the 15th of the prior month. You can preview the pick and, if it’s not your vibe, simply hold your tokens (for up to a year) to use on another title or item instead.
    No drama. Skip it! Your tokens will patiently wait in your account (for up to a year) until a book, merch item, or moment speaks to you.
    Yep! You can cancel anytime after your first renewal. No hoops, no heartbreak.
    Nope! We’re “read at your own pace” people. Discussion prompts go live weekly in Kiki, but you can jump in whenever the spirit (or your schedule) allows.
