  • Humanity Project

    Jean Thompson

    Set across the bay in Marin, The Humanity Project is a novel about living on the edge in the paradise of Northern California. Beautifully written and conceived. I loved this book. So did Mary and Frayda.

  • Z: A Novel of Zelda Fitzgerald

    Therese Anne Fowler

    This heartbreaking new novel helps fill the gaps in our understanding of “The First Flapper.” More than just a misunderstood party girl, Zelda Fitzgerald had a unique voice which struggled to be heard in the presence of an overbearing husband and a world with few freedoms for women. Ms. Fowler’s Zelda & Scott are not one-dimensional: the readers may find themselves both rooting for the pair, and wishing Zelda could break free.

  • Life After Life

    Kate Atkinson

    Gripping, imaginative, and compelling. Surprising characters.Gratifying to read. A masterwork. This is not a time travel book. It’s everything books can give us: an impossibility that feels utterly natural and homey..  If you don’t enjoy this book there is something wrong with you.

  • A Lesson In Secret

    Jacqueline Winspear

    In the eighth adventure of our favorite psychologist and investigator, Maisie Dobbs adds a new title to her long list of accomplishments: Spy.

    We follow Maisie as she goes undercover as a professor at a prestigious Cambridge college. Caught in a world of espionage and murder, the stakes have never been higher!

    It is a joy to watch this character grow. Finally, after a decade of mourning her wartime love, Maisie opens up and begins to find new light in her life. Wonderfully written. Great to read as a standalone novel--this book is gem!
