December's choices:
Decided on Give Her Credit, put What The Light Touches on hold at the library, and may suggest that they buy Bitter Passage as well.
November's selections
Taking out the thrillers and suspense cuts it down quickly. It's down to White Mulberry, Nobody's Perfect, and Floreana. The library already has White Mulberry (what's with all the Korean historical fiction lately?) and Floreana on order, so I'm getting Nobody's Perfect. I Think . . . might be interesting, but it's also end-of-the-world which I've hit my limit on.
This month's choices:
Nope to the short read (44 pages? really??), the espionage, the "coming of age," the thriller, the Green Beret memoir. Library has Anti-Heroes and Hill of Secrets on order, so it's either Bad Reputation or Lenny Among Ghosts. So, I'll give Bad Reputation a try.
This month we have:
Oddly, our library has only got one of these, the procedural, on the order list. Usually it's at least a couple. Scratch the procedural and romantasy, romance, and historical fiction. This time, I'm going with Bummer Camp, and may get In Our Likeness via ILL later - it's got a sci-fi theme going on that might be interesting.
July is another month where we pick two books.
No short stories, suspense, or police thrillers. In Any Lifetime is a multi-verse story, which is too close to itme travel and will give me a headache. Nine Tailed is on order at the library.
So, Friends with Secrets and Daughter of Fire.
This month's selections:
After knocking out the thrillers, serial killers, and assorted stuff, I got the humorous mystery. A good laugh is a good thing.
May's choices
I don't care about college sports scandals, or suspense/crime, or this version of whatever "Women's Fiction" is. Or romance/"divorce fiction." or a mystery/thriller about the Tampa mafia, or time-travel, coming of age romances, or a kidnapping thriller.
So, Contemporary Fiction aka Friendship Fiction it is - The Curious Secrets of Yesterday.
This month:
The Bootlegger's Daughter is the one for this month.
This onth:
I ended up going for What is Love, and will watch out for Lost Letters of Aisling at the library. And the bonus short read, by Isabel Allende, was free too.
This month:
Taking out the thrillers and crime books, it's down to When the World GOes Quiet and The Canopy Keepers. I'm a little tired of war fiction,so it's going to be The Canopy Keepers this month.
January is another two-book month, with ten to choose from.
Well some of these are easy to weed out - horror, thriller, and dark romance, for a start. This Impossible Brightness is in the "dystopian fiction" category, so it's out too.
Decision: The Real Deal and Mayluna
