ANTONIA'S PICK
Forest Walking
by Peter Wohlleben and
Jane Billinghurst
Wohlleben and Billinghurst encourage us to open our eyes and our hearts, all of our senses, in fact, to the beautiful and mysterious lives of trees. This book is a perfect companion for forest walking, forest thinking, and forest feeling. That we should be so fortunate to learn about their daily tasks, their family structures, their history and what they provide every living being on our home planet is a gift beyond measure. A true treasure trove of information that will delight the heart and mind.
KYLEE'S PICK
The Murder of Mr. Wickham
by Claudia Gray
For fans of Jane Austen, The Murder of Mr. Wickham is a clue-esque murder mystery set in Donwell Abbey with familiar characters from all of Jane Austen's novels, along with a few new ones. Watching this cast of familiar characters try to figure out who had the motive and the means to commit the murder makes for an entertaining read, and when everything comes to light at the end, it makes for quite the twist.
BARB'S PICK
Love Marriage
by Monica Ali
Doctors Yasmin Ghorami, and her fiance Joe Sangster, are planning a small private London wedding, that is until their families become involved. This novel has everything – clashing cultures, family rifts, suppressed addictions, passion, and a cacophony of splendid characters, all drawn with sharp insight, humour and wit. Monica Ali has written a captivating social comedy and a profoundly moving tale of two cultures, two families, and two people trying to understand and love each other. This was a book I couldn’t put down until the very end.  Highly recommended. Great for book clubs too!
MARIANNE'S PICK
The Sweetness of Water
by Nathan Harris
Written with a tenderness reminiscant of William Kent Kruger's Ordinary Grace and This Tender Land, this book is set in rural Georgia just as the Cival War ends. Just freed brothers and former slaves Prentiss and Landry, seeking to forge new lives for themselves, receive work and friendship from George Walker. This gripping historical fiction touches on the forbidden relationship between two former Confederate soldiers, the repercussions of the war ending, and the complex political and racial tensions in the American south.
TOM'S PICK
Great Circle
by Maggie Shipstead
After being rescued as infants from a sinking ocean liner in 1914, Marian and Jamie Graves are raised by their dissolute uncle in Missoula, Montana. There, after encountering a pair of barnstorming pilots passing through town in beat-up biplanes--Marian commences her lifelong love affair with flight. At fourteen she drops out of school and finds an unexpected and dangerous patron in a wealthy bootlegger who provides a plane and subsidizes her lessons, an arrangement that will haunt her for the rest of her life, even as it allows her to fulfill her destiny: circumnavigating the globe by flying over the North and South Poles.
