If you read The Handmaid’s Tale, you definitely need to read The Testaments if you haven’t yet. This is the sequel and is another New York Times #1 Best Seller. This book takes place more than fifteen years after the events of The Handmaid’s Tale. The theocratic regime of the Republic of Gilead maintains its grip on power, but there are signs it is beginning to rot from within.
The Nickel Boys is one of the New York Times’ best books of the decade. This is the story of two boys sentenced to a hellish reform school – called The Nickel Academy – in Jim Crow-era Florida. Though billed as a place where delinquent boys can become “honorable and honest men”, it is actually a place of horrors where boys are beaten and abused.
Named as a best book of 2019 by NPR, Slate and more, Wild Game: My Mother, Her Lover, and Me is the author’s memoir of the time when she helped orchestrate what would become an epic affair between her mother and her father’s closest friend. The affair would have calamitous consequences for everyone involved, impacting Adrienne’s life in profound ways, driving her into a precarious marriage of her own, and then into a deep depression. Only years later would she get the courage and strength to address everything on her own terms.
The Starless Sea focuses on Zachary Ezra Rawlins, a graduate student in Vermont who discovers a mysterious book. As he turns the pages, entranced by tales of lovelorn prisoners, key collectors, and nameless acolytes, he reads something strange: a story from his own childhood. Confused and bewildered, Zachary uncovers a series of clues—a bee, a key, and a sword—that lead him to a masquerade party in New York, to a secret club, and through a doorway to an ancient library hidden far below the surface of the earth.
If you love mysteries and thrillers, you’ll love The Silent Patient. This book is a shocking psychological thriller of a woman’s act of violence against her husband―and of the therapist obsessed with uncovering her motive.
The Dutch House is the story of two siblings, their childhood home and a past that won’t let them go. It explores the indelible bond between siblings and digs deeply into questions of inheritance, love and forgiveness, of how we want to see ourselves and of who we really are.
