World of Wonders: In Praise of Fireflies, Whale Sharks, and Other Astonishments
by Aimee Nezhukumatathil
View in Library Catalog
book cover


A staff pick and a beautifully written short book by poet Aimee N. While not poems, the short stories written about flora and fauna are poetic in nature. The author picks specific subjects that have meaning in her life and intertwines scientific facts with stories about her family as well as about world issues. The stories about the Potoo and the Octopus were favorites.

The book is fun and entertaining. Live the characters. Very unique and complicated. It's fun to watch their lives

The Honjin Murders
by Seishi Yokomizo
View in Library Catalog
book cover


Charming narration offers an introduction to an endearing detective in a cozyish locked room murder mystery with a clever plot. If you’ve burned through all of Agatha Christie, this series will appeal to you.

Penny And Her Doll

I thought the book was funny because the family thought of silly names.

In My Dreams I Hold a Knife
by Ashley Winstead

book cover


Twisty and entertaining thriller about an unsolved murder and a group of college friends at a very Duke-like university. Lots of twists and turns, suspenseful, and also a really interesting look at the complexities of friendship, especially within a group.

The Rembrandt Affair
by Daniel Silva

book cover


Daniel Silva never fails to amaze me in his creativity of plots. Gabriel Allon once again manages to save the world. Silvas books each offer a different but similar plot. Rembrandts affair is no different. It is a page turner and it doesn’t fail to please. I hope they start to make a tv or movie series of this character and his exploits.

Table For Two

I was disappointed that this was not a novel but 6 short stories based in New York and a novella based in Hollywood in 1936. The novella made up for the other stories.

Amelia Bedelia

I didn’t really like how mean the family was, but I though Amelia was funny!

Into The Water
by Paula Hawkins

book cover


Entertaining and suspenseful; things are not what they seem, in an entertaining way. A quick read; there were a few little parts that dragged, but overall I liked it.
