Robby Recommends:
"Shanghai Girls"  by Lisa See is a great read about a couple of Chinese girls whose lives are turned upside down by their father's betrayal and WWII.  They are forced to marry and imigrate to the United States.  Filled with heartbreak, adversity and joy, this book will keep you entertained.  And of course Craig Johnson's "Dark Horse" and C.J. Box's "Below Zero" are great mysteries to help you while away those free hours this summer.

Sheridan,Today

 
 

 

 

Author of the brilliant The Other Boleyn Girl, Philippa Gregory returns to the Tudor court in this equally absorbing novel.

 

Meet the Roncalli and Angelini families, a vibrant cast of colorful characters who navigate tricky family dynamics with hilarity and brio, from magical Manhattan to the picturesque hills of bella Italia. Very Valentine is the first novel in a trilogy and is sure to be the new favorite of Trigiani's millions of fans around the world.

 

 

 As special as The Kite Runner was, A Thousand Splendid Suns is more so, bringing Hosseini's compassionate storytelling and his sense of personal and national tragedy to a tale of two women that is weighted equally with despair and grave hope.
