Avery Hollins delivers a powerful, intimate, and unflinchingly honest portrait of binge eating, body shame, emotional hunger, and the long road to recovery.

When Hazel Whitby discovers a decades-old letter hidden beneath the floorboards of her teahouse on Lavender Lane, she has no idea she’s about to uncover a quiet mystery that has lingered in her town for nearly thirty years.

From the outside, it looks easy to explain. Rain. Trees. Coffee. A few volcanoes. People in fleece jackets who pretend they are not staring at the mountains even though they absolutely are.

Counterculture coffee shops and irrigation canals. Fierce environmental protection alongside relentless industrial ambition. A state that argues constantly with itself and somehow survives stronger for it.

Before Columbus Got Lost rewrites the opening chapter of the Americas with humor, heart, and honesty.
