Catherine’s Picks
“With long, hot days and fewer obligations, summertime may be the perfect time to pick up that old classic you’ve always wanted to read. Here are three of my favorites.”

Jeff’s Picks
“I tried to make my selections a mix of current and recent fiction, mysteries, historicals, paranormals, and literary fiction. The common thread was that they are all novels with a strong sense of place, and in most cases, with one exception, that place was France.”

Karen’s Picks
“If you’re looking for a dystopian love triangle, a la The Hunger Games, or a mouthwatering memoir of love and food, you might want to try one of my three picks.”

Maureen’s Picks
“I chose my books based on the theme of baseball. Each book, whether adult fiction, non-fiction, young adult or children’s, uses the game of baseball to frame their story.”

Jackie’s Picks
“I went with an motley assortment. My selections range from the very light, can-be-read-in-an-afternoon work of fiction to the more time consuming, denser, narrative non-fiction, with a variety of middleweights in between.”

Beth’s Picks
“I chose an eclectic mix of literary historical novels, nice reads, medical
narratives and thrillers.”

Leane’s Picks
“I wanted a little something for everyone-smart, funny women like Janet Evanovich, mysteries, spies, conspiracies, and relationship stories.”
