Here's a peek at what your library staff is reading this month!
Paula Pekar, Director
1) The Midnight Train by Matt Haig: When your life flashes before your eyes, where would you stop? A magical, time-travelling love story, from the world of The Midnight Library.
2) The Dutch House by Ann Patchett: A richly moving story that explores the indelible bond between two siblings, the house of their childhood, and a past that will not let them go.
Rachael Schroeder, Assistant to Director
1) Dawn of the North by Demi Winters: Return to the land of ice and fire, where a god awakens, a queen finds her power, and sisters must unite against the darkness threatening their realm. (Part 3 of the Ashen Series)
2) A Forest, Darkly by A.G. Slatter: A page-turning dark fantasy of persecuted witches, snatched children, twisted magic, changelings and the sins that bind
Rosa Newby, Library Assistant:
1) Yesteryear by Caro Claire Burke: A traditional American woman, a “tradwife” influencer, suddenly awakens in the brutal reality of 1855—where she must unravel whether this living nightmare is an elaborate hoax, a twisted reality show, or something far more sinister.
2) Remarkably Bright Creatures by Shelby Van Pelt: A charming, witty and compulsively readable exploration of friendship, reckoning, and hope that traces a widow's unlikely connection with a giant Pacific octopus.
