Simon And The Homosapien Agenda
by Becky Albertalli
View in Library Catalog
book cover


Delightful YA novel that is significantly better than the movie. Gives a lot of insight into the character Simon, who is even more likable here b/c he is less manipulative. Gives much more depth into the relationship of Simon and his pen pal Blue.

Dr. Nadine Lavoie works in a lockdown psychiatric hospital. As she helps a woman who has attempted suicide she comes to terms with her own traumatic childhood. Good storyline, good characters.

Dead After Dark
by Charlaine Harris Sookie Stackhouse Series
View in Library Catalog
book cover


This book follows very closely along with the first season of True Blood with the exception of the characters Tara and Jessica being absent. Like the show, features great cast of characters well drawn from the outset. The book is told in first person from Sookie's perspective, so you get an even better sense of her point of view than in the show. The audiobook is especially well done in terms of Sookie's accent, attitude, etc.

Untamed Glennon Doyle
by Glennon Doyle Melton Untamed

book cover


This is a great read that combines personal anecdotes with self-empowerment. Reminiscent of books like Elizabeth Gilbert's Big Magic (the author references Gilbert as a friend/mentor). Focuses a lot on parenting and on her relationship with wife Abby Wambach. Will probably make a lot more sense if you've read her previous book(s) first.

we half liked it. Mama loved it

The White Princess Philippa Gregory
by Philippa Gregory Books
View in Library Catalog
book cover


This was the first book I've read by this author after having seen some of the tv/film adaptations of her work. The books really bring the characters to life, and it is intriguing the way that they are told in first person from one person's point of view. Hard to say how historically accurate these are, but they do seem accurate in a broad sense. Actually encourages interest in the historical subject matter. Makes for a great summer read.

The Familiar Dark
by Amy Engel

book cover


Amy Engel writes a really good mystery. Her characters, like Eve, have grit and gumption. She relys on herself to find her daughters killer.

I'm a Stranger Here Myself
by Bill Bryson
View in Library Catalog
book cover


This is a classic work of essays by Bryson told in his inimitable style. Is a unique perspective on American life after his having lived in UK for 20 years. Witty and insightful. Somewhat dated to the 90s.

I Love My Mommy Because

This is another one of my daughter's favorite books. We do all the sounds to it and when we're done we always reread it again and again.

Over The Top Jonathan Van Ness
by Jonathan Van Ness Book
View in Library Catalog
book cover


This memoir reflects a lot of the joie de vivre and personality you'll see of Van Ness in his tv and social media appearances but also deals with a lot of tough topics with a lot of honesty and flair, including sexual abuse, STIs, addiction, and so on--which may be surprising to some readers and/or difficult for them to hear. Audiobook especially good.
