The Guest Cottage
by Nancy Thayer

View in Library Catalog



It happens on Nantucket, so it's a summer escape. Sophie and Trevor accidentally rent the same guest house with their families. Lots of drama ensues and connections are made.

Better Off Dead
by Lee Child

View in Library Catalog



Part of the Jack Reacher series. Non-stop action from start to finish. Could NOT put this book down! Reacher certainly knows how to kick butt, and plenty of it got kicked in this one. Pretty good story, I must say.

The Midnight Library
by Matt Haig

View in Library Catalog



So good! A novel exploring the impact of what we do or don't...even when we don't see it.

The Mystery Guest
by Nita Prose

View in Library Catalog



An unusually observant hotel maid cleans up all the loose ends and leads the police to a deranged killer. A eye-opening depiction of a character who views the world in very concrete terms and forms deep attachments and gains loyal friends and supporters despite her lack of traditional social skills.

Lab Girl
by Hope Jahren

View in Library Catalog



Southern Minnesota native Hope Jahren chronicles her life as a woman in the male-dominated world of scientific research. Funny, moving, and informative. This book will give you a new appreciation of the natural world and the people who study it.

The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck
by Mark Manson

As in the title the cuss words focus heavily on this book. I get that that results in a certain audience reading that might not otherwise read this type of book.

The Heiress
by Rachel Hawkins

View in Library Catalog



A short read at 292 pages but it fell flat for me. It felt like a knockoff version of The Seven Husbands Of Evelyn Hugo with a whiny, rich ungrateful main character. Usually Hawkins’ books have some sort of spooky/thriller element, but I didn’t find this one very interesting.

Prom Mom
by Laura Lippman

View in Library Catalog



I like dark and twisty books, and that lead me to Prom Mom, but it wasn't as dark and twisty as promised. It also focused a lot on covid, so if you don't want to read about the pandemic in your fiction world, stay away from this one.

The Gunslinger
by Stephen King

First 3/4 of the book were a bit rough to get through. It really picked up on the last quarter. Excited to move onto the next!

The Brothers Hawthorne
by Barnes

View in Library Catalog



Book four in the Inheritance Games series was a fun twist added to the previous three books. International travel and a deep dive into the family trees woven together at at the core of The Brothers Hawthorne. An excellent read!
