A couple months ago, the Library posted a
video on our YouTube Channel with staff recommendations for summer reading. Here's the "why?" behind some of those recommendations, as well as other books that did not make it into the video. All are available as e-books in our
OverDrive collection.
Tracy Holtman, our Assistant Director for Collections Management, had two suggestions.
"What I liked about
The Readers of Broken Wheel Recommend [by Katarina Bivald] was that it was different from what I normally read. Two women correspond sending book recommendations. However when the woman from Sweden visits, her pen-pal has passed away. She stays in the friendly small town, and opens a book store, giving book recommendations to everyone.
I enjoyed revisiting all the books mentioned. (It was nice to know I had read several!!) It was just a good sweet book – small town America."
Tracy also recommends the
Sullivan’s Crossing series, set in rural Colorado, because "It was by an author I love [Robyn Carr], with a family storyline. I like family stories – this one [
What We Find, first in the series] is about a daughter and her aging father. (And of course some romance too.) Just a good, short, fun read."
We also have the next two books in the series in OverDrive:
Any Day Now, and
The Family Gathering.
