Happy Spring! I’m thinking positive…it WILL come!

 FYI – you probably see the Finley Book Club reading list posted on face book and on bulletin boards around town. If you see a book on that list that you think sounds interesting, most likely a book club reader will donate their book after it’s been discussed. So, come on in and take a look. We probably have it.

 New hard cover, large print books  are:

The Wife Between Us by Greer Hendricks – You’ll find yourself drawn into the twists and turns. This is a mind-bending novel about marriage and betrayal. A jealous wife obsessed with her replacement? Maybe not. Read to the end!

 Two from the Heart by James Patterson – 2 stories in this one book.  1 – After losing everything, Anne goes on the road to ask friends and family “What’s Your Best Story?”  2 – Tyler has all the money in the world but has no life. He hires a struggling novelist to write one for him.

 Keeping Faith by Jodi Picoult – If you’ve read Jodi Picoult you know her books deal with very thought provoking topics. This book deals with an ugly divorce witnessed by 7 year old Faith who starts to hear divine voices, starts reciting biblical passages and develops stigmata, even though she has absolutely no religious background.

 Deceptions by Judith Michael – Identical twins Stephanie, married with 2 children, and Sabrina, divorced, are wondering if their lives could be better so they decide to play the game they played as children – trading identities, just for a week.

 Atomic City Girls by Janet Beard – This is a fictional story about a real place. Oak Ridge, Tennessee in 1944, a town that didn’t exist until then. It was a city of nearly 450 buildings with most people working on a project, not knowing what the project was. Turns out, they were making uranium/plutonium for the atomic bomb. This is a fascinating novel about a little-known piece of WWII history.
