Angela's Ashes
by Frank McCourt
View in Library Catalog
book cover


This book is narrated by the author, Frank McCourt. To say he lived a life of tragedy is putting it mildly. Throughout it all, he continued to move forward and see positivity and never gave up. Well worth a listen.

Twisted Lies

book cover


Gave the right balance of heat, angst and softness that has me turning the pages. I loved how Vivian held her own, even with all of Dante's brooding intensity and power plays. Also enjoyed the tension between Dante & Vivian and the satisfaction of watching their icy arrangement melt into real connection.

The Women
by Kristin Hannah

book cover


Kristin Hannah takes on a historically close fictional experience of women in wartime with the story of Frankie McGrath. Cheer for her as she learns to love nursing side by side with war heroes who saved lives and comforted the dying. Suffer with her on her return through a difficult reentry but a path to healing and recovery. Kristin Hanna provides a rich list of further reading. A Piece of my Heart by Keith Walker is a treasure trove of the experiences of 26 nurses--true tales. An all time fave is Tim O'Brien's The Things They Carried. As part of a generation that didn't experience a draft but was just younger than one that did, reading the stories gave me a chance to understand better what veterans live through and live with all of their lives.

Another great novel by Kristin Hannah. The Women is a novel set during the Vietnam War and a young woman,Frankie, who enlists as a nurse, and following her journey during and after the war. I couldn’t put this book down, but it was a very emotional read.

As a teen the saga is intense and intriguing. The concept of love interest is drawing and motivation to read and finding out what will happen next and so on.

The Cheat Sheet

I read this book for my book club and I loved it. A bunch of my friends hated it and did not finish it, but I am so glad I did. I finished this book while I was sick with the flu, and it was so good. This is probably the most slowburn of the slowburns. I usually don't like crazy big slowburns, but this one was so good. I would recommend this to all of my romance lovers.

The Adventures Of Pinocchio
by Carlo Collodi
View in Library Catalog
book cover


This remains the original manuscript, penned in 1883 by Carlo Lorezzizi ( aka C.Collodi), which inspired the 1940 animated Disney masterpiece. Delightfully written with rich details of Italian provincial life, this book significantly differs from its whimsical cinematic counterpart in both tone and characterizations; however, youngsters of all ages will surely enjoy this simple tale of a mischievous wooden marionette whose growing appreciation of his father Gepetto's love, transforms him into his real-life son. *For those parents who cherish bed-time storytelling for their children, a word of caution is advised; some chapters are graphic in both violence and dark imagery, and literary discretion is necessary for the very young sleepy set toddlers.*
