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.

Really enjoyed this book! A good story, well written, touching and surprising and interesting historical fiction.

Madness

many books about institutionalization try to take a side on either institutionalization or deinstitutionalization - this book walks the line between both - emphasizing the major failures of both, because the reality is that both failed in catastrophic ways. finished this one on July 11th.

Very fun! Definitely re-living the Twilight days, but at an adult level and Jacob is the winner. Wouldn’t say that this book is winning any awards - but a very entertaining way to spend time!

A nice story, although a little sad. Not as well written as some other authors I've read, but a pleasant read overall.

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!

When you enter this dystopian world you are quick to remember that life may be easier outside of this world. Everything is very regimented within this military world before you know it you are trying to shield your arms thinking you may also have special powers that are illegal.

Death By Chocolate Raspberry Scone

Sarah's writing voice comes out in her character's personalities. This was my first book, and based on their actions, I was able to determine a lot about them. So many things going on - main focus being to solve a murder with her best friend EIllie.

Imagine, if you will, that your life completely changes because of an accident… You take responsibility for your alcohol and drug usage and just when you think you will be free, a pandemic happens. This was a powerful and moving book. (I shed some tears.)
