I cannot be the only person who stopped reading halfway through. At that part.

Packed with action and more family secrets than you can shake a stick at, this story of one family who benevolently rules their Virginia county during Prohibition is hard to put down. The story follows youngest daughter Sallie as she navigates the many twists and turns of her own family tree to ascend to the “throne” of her father, the Duke, who is nothing if not local royalty. (1/2)

Absolutely adorable! A mouse and their dad get along mostly until one day he brings home a squirrel... but it's definitely not a squirrel and now the mice have to figure out a way not to get eaten! Wonderful graphics and a very cute story!

Just finished listening to This Time Tomorrow. It has been in my mine for many years what it would be like to go back to the age if 15 or 16 having the knowledge I have as adult so this book intrigued me. I enjoyed it. Also I did not know Emma Straub is the daughter of Peter Straub another favorite author. His book Ghost Story is the best ghost story I've read.

This was fantastic! A young teen meets her father for the first time when she goes to spend the summer with him in the brownstone he‘s renovating. They navigate language barriers and she feels like a major outsider in the neighborhood. Very sweet story.

A good, sink-into, partially estranged family story. I really liked the characters, the pacing, the writing. I will definitely be reading more this author.
