Staff Picks: Kacy - "Ocean at the End of the Lane"
I love the imagery & descriptions are so vivid. It reminds me of how much I enjoyed books as a child & truly reawakened my love of reading.
Staff Picks: Thomas - "MCU"
Fans of all things Marvel and business will enjoy the roller coaster ride of history leading up to the media juggernaut that we know today.
Staff Picks: Greg - "Truth is a Cave in the Black Mountains"
This story is accompanied by a string quartet. If you close your eyes while listening it feels like you've been transported into a folktale.
Staff Picks: Tamara - "The Light Pirate"
Maybe the first book I've read that clearly imagines what the world might look like as climate change progresses.
Staff Picks: Catie W. - "In the Dream House"
Each chapter embodies a different genre of writing while guiding you through the story of a relationship gone wrong. Beautifully written.
Staff Picks: Becky - "The Anthropocene Reviewed"
This essay collection began as a podcast. This is his first title for adult readers & it’s a treat to hear him bring his own words to life.
Staff Picks: Lisa K. - "There Will Come a Darkness"
For epic fans of Tolkien, George RR Martin, and epic fantasy-adventure lovers!
Staff Picks: Tamara - "Run Towards the Danger"
Polley expertly wove together threads in a way I've never experienced. I am blown away by her strength, determination and vulnerability.
Staff Picks: Annamarie - "Love on the Brain"
Sometimes you just want a book that is light, fun, and throws in a little bit of neuroengineering.
Staff Picks: Ashley H. - "A Flicker in the Dark"
This book is for those who love a good mystery that makes your heart beat faster and your hands sweat a little.
Staff Picks: Jim S. - "The Pioneers"
Ohio history begins with the first settlement in the 1780s--Marietta. A lively narrative from the writings of these little-known pioneers.
Staff Picks: Marie - "The Comfort Book"
Truly one of the most comforting, thoughtful, and uplifting books I have ever read. If you need a hug in book form, I highly recommend it!
Staff Picks: Becky - "Women Holding Things"
This one sneaks up on you and gets deep. It's also about the boulders you carry in your dreams. I guess that's how life is, too.
Staff Picks: Leah - "One Life"
Megan is not only an Olympian but an activist and advocate for many critical issues. This book isn't just about soccer!
Staff Picks: Greg - "Dark Matter"
I read the back of the book and realized it was a style of Sci-Fi Thriller that I love - a fun book that never left me bored or confused.
Staff Picks: Miranda - "Under the Whispering Door"
Always down to dive into wonderfully queer, ingenious worlds of fantasy. This book brought a deep appreciation for the process of grieving.
