Like Mother, Like daughter
by Kimberly McCreight

book cover


Not my favorite, I wasn’t a huge fan of either main character and found the plot was very predictable.

What Kind Of Paradise
by Janelle Brown
View in Library Catalog
book cover


Set in the mid-1990s, this novel felt both of its time period and timely for today: then, the early popularilty of the Internet, and today's similar feeling around AI. Jane grew up in an isolated, off-the-grid cabin in Montana with her father. She knows little of the outside world, just that her mother died in a car crash and they used to live in the California Bay Area. But as she gets older she wants to know more, and she starts to question her dad's teachings and ever-more-disturbing actions. Technology vs. nature; isolation vs. society; innocence vs. knowledge — this book is suspenseful, poignant, and a great read.

The Disappearance Of Astrid Bricard

book cover


Set in the fashion world, primarily in the 1970s but also present day and early 1940s. This is historical fiction but definitely a blend of history and fiction, as the author details at the end. The main characters are fictional but real people abound. Beyond an entertaining story and a mystery, the book is a commentary on how people are portrayed in the media, how their stories and history in general can be shaped by the offhand comments when people don't look further. Good book.

All That Life Can Afford
by Emily Everett

book cover


Entertaining book about an American woman working on her postgrad lit degree in London. Struggling to pay her bills, and tutoring wealthy kids as a side job, she is swept into the world of the ultra-wealthy. It's a pretty nice place, at least materially, and she begins to do more and more things to stay there--until there's a reckoning. More than just fluff, there's depth to the characters and plenty of Austen references.

This book had a lot of animals in it. It was very creative. My favorite part was when they slid on the ice like a polar Bears. I also liked that it had facts on the back about polar bears.

I would recommend this book because it is based on a true story about two dogs.

Under the Stars
by Beatriz Williams

book cover


A blend of the modern day and the historical. Set on (fictional) Winthrop Island, the book flips back and forth between the present day lives of Audrey, her actress mother, and her bartender father, and a November night in 1846, when the steamship Atlantic gets caught in a storm, suffers a catastrophic disaster, and sinks in Long Island Sound. This book does have some characters from other books of Williams', but can be read as a stand-alone as well. Great summer vacation read: engaging story + historical substance.
