pick⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Loved this on audio! The harrowing story of the rescue of 12 boys and their soccer coach from a cave in Thailand. Also learned quite a bit about Thai culture and cave diving and exploration. Highly recommend.

pickAudiobook: yes, another Titanic book! Told in 2 voices, one is Captain Rostron of the Carpathia, one is a Titanic passenger, Kate Connolly; based on recorded accounts submitted within a week or two of the Titanic disaster. We don‘t often hear the Carpathia ‘s side of the story, and it‘s a good one.

My favorite #12Booksof2023 from July was definitely the most fast-paced thing I‘ve read all year. I‘m not sure I breathed properly at all while I was reading it. I remember loving Newman‘s previous book (Falling) too. Her stories are horrifying, but I just can‘t look away.
pickDon‘t tell anybody, but I‘m a disaster movie junkie. Love ‘em all (except Titanic, THAT was just silly) Well, this book is just like a soul satisfying disaster flick. It checks all the boxes: lovable characters trapped together with interesting back-stories, engineer who keeps folk safe with his knowledge, lovely older couple, two charming kids, horrible a** hole, brave female captain, valiant rescuers, etc. Finished at 2AM. Just plain, fun read!
Look who was visiting the library at the same time as me today? 😍
pickThe definition of suspense. Even better than her first book. This was filled with tension from the first page. A plane crashes in the Pacific six minutes after take off. An engine explodes, the ocean is on fire, the plane floods and sinks, with 12 passengers trapped inside. 5⭐️
pickThis book tells the story of airmen who ended up in German-occupied Yugoslavia in WWII and the rescue mission that recovered them. It‘s so good! The storytelling is cinematic in the best way, and I was on the edge of my seat the entire time. Major kudos to the Serb villagers who risked their lives to hide all those men from the Nazis.
