Staff Picks

You'll Be the Death of Me

Karen M. McManus

"Ivy, Cal and Mateo haven't hung out in years, but when all three of them feel like playing hooky, it feels like the perfect time to get the band back together. What could possibly go wrong? A lot, apparently. When the three of them accidently walk onto the scene of a murder, things start to fall apart. First, they find out the victim is a fellow student, then Ivy gets pegged as a person of interest, and now it feels like Cal isn't telling them everything. Will they be able to clear their names by the time Ivy's parents touch down at the airport or will their collective lives be ruined? " Recommended by Claire Brandenburg

A Stranger's Game

Colleen Coble

"This is the first of Colleen's books I have read. I loved her characters and I loved the animals in this suspenseful romance by an Indiana author." Recommended by Daryl Shrock

Superman Smashes the Klan

Gene Luen Yang

"Roberta Lee doesn't see why her family had to move from familiar Chinatown to the giant, different, bustling Metropolis, but things take a turn for the worse when masked men burn a cross in the Lee family's yard. But maybe this move wasn't all bad. After all, she did get to meet Superman. But why is he talking to himself? And what's going on with that strange green rock? " Recommended by Claire Brandenburg

The Cartographers

Peng Shepherd

"Nell loves maps and her job at the New York Public Library, where her father also works as a cartographer. But when she is fired from her position after a disagreement over a highway map, her career plans crash and she becomes estranged from her family. Years later, Nell finds herself back at NYPL after the sudden death of her father and a strange and mystifying investigation of that same highway map begins. This book offers mystery, fantasy, and suspense readers a very satisfying story." Recommended by Vicki Builta

Hostage

Kay Hooper

"Luther Brinkman goes to the Appalachian Mountains of Tennessee to find escaped felon Cole Jacoby, a mentally unstable bank robber. He becomes injured with no way to let his superiors know what is happening." Recommended by Taira Simmons
