The Paris Apartment
by Lucy Foley
View in Library Catalog
book cover


Slow to start, but because I’ve read books by this author before, I knew that the first bit of the book was for character building and that the suspense would come later (and it certainly did). Every time I thought I had all the pieces of the puzzle fit together, I was thrown a curveball and left completely stunned. Lisa Foley’s books are by far my favorite psychological thrillers and this one was great! A little bit of a darker, grittier read, but still very enjoyable and gripping.

Our Missing Hearts

I read this book based on our book club's recommendation and also as it was a library staff pick. While told in its own unique way, the plot reminded me of so many things that have happened/are happening in society and the world. I got the impressions of COVID and anti-Asian sentiments, the removal and separation of children from Native Americans as well as their return from successful adoptions, separation of immigrant families at the border, etc. The "Crisis" and PACT were universal in their meaning as was the resulting abuse of power and tendency to look the other way. The way Celeste Ng told the story through the eyes of young Bird was very interesting, and the young adult fiction book, "The Giver", kept coming to mind.

Wow!! I absolutely loved this and flew through it. It’s uncommon to find an epistolary novel, and the form served the function of this novel so well.
The Midnight Feast

An amazing psychological thriller that keeps you on the edge of your seat and leaves you wanting to unearth more answers to the burning questions that pop up. I audibly gasped as secrets were unfolding with every twist and turn. And like the characters in the book, I felt a sense of closure as I turned the last page. Lucy Foley is a mastermind, and this might be her best one yet!

Devolution

My first experience with a pseudo-documentary in book format. I found myself googling Mount Rainer's last eruption just to be sure that this story was in fact fiction. I greatly enjoyed this book and look forward to finding more similar to this.
Dream State
by Eric Puchner

book cover


A wedding, a group of college friends, a romance, a heartbreak, and choices that reverberate through generations. Also an ode to the state of Montana—and heartbreak for the impacts of a warming climate. (Not in a preachy way, but in a day-to-day impactful change kind of way: the lake when the characters were kids, vs. the lake now.) The pace was a little slow but I was engaged in the outcome of the characters.
Love and other monsters

My goodness this book took me absolutely forever to finish. So incredibly dense and did not need to be that long. Yet it was gorgeous prose I could let melt on my tongue.
