In celebration of the Platinum Jubilee of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, the reading agency has worked with the BBC to choose 70 books to reflect the 70 years of her reign. It is a diverse and fascinating selection, with many hidden gems which readers may not be familiar with. RBWM Libraries are proud to announce that all 70 books are available for reservation from our catalogue. Look out for staff reviews that we will be posting on social media soon: Twitter, Facebook, Instagram.

RBWM Libraries have created a special photographic exhibition for Her Majesty’s Platinum Jubilee. Using residents’ shared photos of street parties and memorabilia dating from previous milestone anniversaries, we have mounted the images on large boards which will be on display in all the libraries next month.

Fault lines by Emily Itami
A love story with a difference. Set in modern day Tokyo, it explores how a marriage works in Japan alongside the traditional aspects of life there. Mizuki meets a successful restaurateur and discovers a whole new meaning to her life. She tries to remain loyal to her husband and family but increasingly finds she is living two separate lives and has to decide which one she will stay true to. It was an interesting look at a culture which is so alien to our own and certainly made me think. Reserve a copy.

A Violent Gentleman by Danny O’Leary
Jeremiah O'Connell made his name solving problems in London, now he's doing the same in LA but not the easy way. The problems other people can't or won't touch? Suddenly Jeremiah has problems of his own when he sets out to right a wrong and finds himself on the hit list. As the stakes rise, and so does the body count, Jeremiah has the fight of his life on his hands along with high-class escort Noah in tow. Jeremiah must revisit his old London stomping grounds and assemble his team in order to wage all-out war on the streets of Tinseltown. A must for readers wanting an engrossing well written story packed with captivating characters. Reserve a copy.
