Headline Fiction - Kin by Tayari Jones

From the bestselling, award-winning author of An
American Marriage comes a sparkling, emotionally rich novel about Vernice and Annie, two motherless daughters raised in Honeysuckle, Louisiana, who have been best friends and neighbours since earliest childhood, but are fated to live starkly different lives. A story of mothers and daughters, friendship and sisterhood, Kin is an
unforgettable portrait of womanhood in the American South.

LitFic & Book Buffet - Astronaut! by Oana Aristide

Romania, 1989: a grey place of mysterious queues,
ubiquitous informers and daily news flashes about a man-eating bear that is terrorising the country. Amidst the daily drudge of work, rationing and careful conversation with neighbours, two lives unexpectedly collide when an idealistic police detective, Constantin, is tasked with solving a string of grisly murders, and a rebellious school child, Lia, is unwittingly drawn into her elderly neighbour's seditious plot. Dryly satirical, incredibly tense and deeply moving.

Light & Easy - Lake Effect by Cynthia D'Apprix Sweeney

It’s 1977 and an air of restlessness has settled on the
residents of Cambridge Road in Rochester, New York. When Nina Larkin can no longer dismiss the nearly non-existent intimacy of her marriage. Just as her oldest child, Clara, is falling in love for the first time, Nina finds herself longing for the forbidden: a midlife awakening. An intoxicating fling with a neighbour brings Nina a freedom she never thought possible, but also risks the reputations of both families and unravels Clara’s world, just as she stands on the threshold of adulthood.

Bookety Club - Shock of Light by Lori Inglis Hall

Cambridge, 1942. Twins Tessa and Theo had always shared everything – until the summer Tessa spent studying in France. She hasn’t been the same since. But before Theo can find out why, he is recruited by the RAF and disappears into the skies. Determined to carve her own path, Tessa joins the clandestine Special Operations Executive, slipping into the shadows of occupied France. It will be dangerous work, but France is the home of her greatest love – and her darkest secret. Tessa has many reasons for wanting to return. Two years later, only one of them comes home.

Twists & Turns - The Truth About Ruby Cooper

If my sister hadn’t been beautiful, none of it would have
happened. Ruby Cooper and her sister, Erin, live an idyllic life in their close-knit church community in Boston. But when Ruby is sixteen, she is involved in an incident that causes her family’s world to implode. Across decades, the fallout leaves a wake of destruction behind Ruby in Dublin and Erin in Boston. Not that Ruby wants to think about the past.

Real Reads - A Woman's Work by Elinor Clegohorn

From the author of Unwell Women, A Woman's Work is a bold and radical new history of mothering, and a timely reminder that the fight for reproductive justice is far from over. In A Woman's Work, Elinor Cleghorn retells the story of motherhood, showcasing the mothers,
othermothers, midwives, activists, and community
leaders who have shaped the course of history.

Romantasy - The Lies that Summon the Night by Tessonja Odette

With a bounty on her head, outlaw storyteller Inana is
captured by Dominic, a half-Sinless monster hunter who needs her talent to summon deadly shadows. His
ultimatum: serve him or be turned in. As their uneasy
alliance drags them into a world of blood, secrets and
rebellion, desire sparks, and what begins as survival could bring their entire world to its knees.

NEW SUBSCRIPTION - Local Voices The Black Monk by Charlotte Grimshaw

A woman haunted by family denial, secrets and a shadowy figure . . . While her brother Cedric spirals into addiction, Alice Lidell finds herself confronted not only by his decline, but by memories of the past. From their chaotic Auckland childhood to her present day life, Alice is haunted by a mysterious figure she calls the Black Monk. Part psychological thriller, part family saga, this is a daring novel that examines the themes of the moment: shame, addiction, truth and the stories we tell to survive.
