In The Shadow Of St. Anthony
by Andrew Hernon
View in Library Catalog
book cover


"In the Shadow of St. Anthony offers a gripping, horror-infused mystery deeply rooted in the unique character of its neighborhood and the mood of 1980s SoHo. If you're drawn to eerie, atmospheric thrillers rich in cultural texture and can also appreciate a narrator with imperfections and a slightly uneven pace then this debut will likely leave a lasting impression."

I enjoyed reading this while working sleepaway camp and needed something quick to get through. Loved the style too! Finished this on July 7th.
The Heart's Invisible Furies

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.
Just For The Summer

book cover


This book was a lot more emotionally fraught than I expected it to be. Jimenez handled discussions of grief and parental abuse well, and while I disagreed with the FMC’s actions, I was still able to empathize. The author consulted many nurses and therapists while writing the book and it shows in the depth of understanding and empathy given to the characters.

Another good strong female lead WWII novel, to include WWI as well which is different! I enjoyed this one although felt like the majority of the book was a very long lead up to the action. Worth the wait though!

Love this author! Have read many of her Trash and Treasures Mysteries. Humorous, mysterious... but mostly humorous because the main character is quite something else.
