If you loved The Bridges of Madison County then I think you'll love this book too! A touching story about a woman, her autistic son and the man who gives them hope. Set in the Depression Era, it's a beautifully written historical fiction.

What appeared at first to me to be more of a sweet, quirky read quickly became a heartfelt and beautifully written coming of age story that I was unable to put down! Set over a Labor Day weekend, it tells the story of 13 year old Henry and the valuable life lessons he learns from a stranger. I loved this book….

The Girls is an engaging and life-affirming story about conjoined twins. You'll fall in love with these girls! Full of wisdom and humor, this is a must read book! A great choice for book clubs.

This book had me laughing out loud! I found Firoozeh Dumas to be a wonderful storyteller. It's a witty and heartwarming story of not only her immigrant family trying to understand life in America, but a memoir of what it was like to grow up Iranian in a Southern California culture. Through lovable relatives and quirky characters, her humorous anecdotes made me realize that when it comes to family, we humans are universally not so different after all. This book is perfect for a fun, light read and appropriate for teens through adult.

Looking for a book to read that you will enjoy so much you'll want to recommend it to everyone you know? Well, here it is! A personal favorite of mine, it's an amazingly beautiful story of a young German girl during WWII who comes to learn the power of words through stolen books. Narrated by Death, (don't let that throw you, he does his job with more compassion than you can possibly imagine), I found it to be an incredibly moving story that deserves to be read by both teens and adults.

For all us historical fiction lovers. A welcome follow up to the The Other Boleyn Girl, this book intertwines the story of Anne of Cleves and Katherine Howard (Henry VIII's fourth and fifth wives) with that of Lady Jane Rochford, the sister-in-law of his second wife Anne Boleyn. Adept at conveying the increasingly frightening and unpredictable atmosphere of Henry's court, this author paints a terrifying picture of what it must have been like to be married to this aging, obese and increasingly mentally unbalanced King.
