The Sisters
by Jonas Hassen Khemiri
View in Library Catalog
book cover


An infinitely readable family saga centering around the magnetic three sisters of a Swedish-Tunisian family and the curse that invades their lives. I loved the structure of this book (very important given the 600+ pages) and the way it drew you into the story of the immigrant experience and inescapable bonds of family, loss and love. Highly recommend.

Once again, Sarah Graves tells a story that is intriguing and and thoughtful, while adding some humor between the two main characters, Jake and Ellie. Her writing makes the reader truly think about how? what? why? On to the next one!
Death By Chocolate Raspberry Scone

book cover


This was my first time reading from this author. Really liked her writing style. The book was humorous and very serious at times. Two women who own a bakery get involved in shenanigans that put them in very dire situations - but in this book they overcame the obstacles they were faced with and found a twist of an outcome.

Fourth Wing
by Rebecca Yarros

book cover


Probably one of my favorite books of all times. Fourth wing takes you through a war college with Dragons! Yarros has twists and turns throughout the book as you never know if they are a true friend or pho. As you dive deeper into this world you see more and more between the drama of the characters to the politics of the world you have immersed yourself in.

She's Come Undone
by Wally Lamb
View in Library Catalog
book cover


Delores Price has an unusual life with multiple ups and downs. She is an unloved fatty who hurts herself, a mental case who realizes (after many years) that she can love and be loved. This is not my favorite book of Lamb but is worth reading.
The Heart's Invisible Furies
by John Boyne
View in Library Catalog
book cover


The author is a fan of John Irving and it shows - a oftentimes delightful book filled with rich characters. The story does a lot to illuminate how the gay community suffered throughout the decades of 1940s and onward in Ireland. Many of the plot points and twists and turns were a bit predictable and rote, but otherwise a good solid emotionally-fulfilling read.
The Skull

book cover


This book is recommended for grade 1 - 4, ages 6-9. It is formatted as a chapter book. I thought it was dark for a children's book. I've read this author before and he often has an unusual twist in his stories. I felt like a 6 year would be a little scared after reading this book. I would recommend for older kids.
Things In Jars

book cover


What a delightful, absolutely beautifully written book! This was a random find on the library shelf for me and when I started I was hesitant because of the otherworldly/ghostly aspect but I pressed on and it was worth it! Out of my normal genres and so good!
