From Our Shelves to Yours: Staff Recommendations We Love
Devin:
My Best Friend’s Exorcism by Grady Hendrix
Grady Hendrix got me out of a reading slump I’ve been in, and this is my favorite of his books. It’s got a healthy dose of 90’s nostalgia, and makes the reader ponder if the casual cruelty that happens in High School is part of growing up or the work of a demonic posession.
Barb:
We Are Growing by Laurie Keller
An oldie, but I find it so funny. Especially during mowing season!
Erin:
Be Ready When the Luck Happens: A Memoir by Ina Garten
I am listening to this one on audio because it is narrated by Ina Garten herself, and she’s got the most soothing way of speaking. I recommend simultaneously checking out her first cookbook, The Barefoot Contessa cookbook : secrets from the East Hampton specialty food store for simple food and party platters you can make at home, because she discusses it in her memoir (and the recipes sound delicious!).
Lynn:
Great Big Beautiful Life by Emily Henry
I’m a huge Henry fan and this one was her best yet in my opinion. A story that touches on family, the cost of fame and fortune, and how to forgive those closest to us and move on. Of course, Henry throws in the romance as well!
Terri:
We All Live here by Jojo Moyes
