Staff Picks for Fall 2011

 

Genghis Khan series by Conn Iggulden. 

I absolutely loved this fast-paced series about the infamous Mongol Khan.  If you like historical fiction give it a try, even if it isn’t your typical cup of tea – you may be pleasantly surprised.     

 

All I Ever Wanted /Kristan Higgins

Cute, fun, perfect beach read!

 

The Language of Secrets/Diane Dixon

What would you do if , as an adult, you went back to your hometown as a child , only to discover the house you grew up in was now owned by strangers and you didn’t know where you family moved? What then would you do if you found you had a gravestone in the family plot with your date of death twenty years earlier? Part family fiction, part thriller, part mystery…an intriguing read!

 

Smokin’ Seventeen/Janet Evanovich

Bounty hunter Stephanie Plum is back with more hilariously funny tales of her life, including more car explosions, a hex on her from one of her boyfriend’s grandmothers, not to forget she still is torn between two boyfriends,  and her place of employment has moved into an RV. Another great summer read from Janet Evanovich.

 

Evidence by Jonathan Kellerman

This story deals with a couple found murdered in an abandoned house. Good story that keeps you guessing to the end.

 

Heartwood/Belva Plain

This book is a sequel to Evergreen. Warm and well written. Worth reading.

 

Settled in the wild : notes from the edge of town / Susan Hand Shetterly.

A quiet, lovely, realistic look at one woman’s rural life in Maine.
