One of our IT librarians is a huge fan of spooky thrillers, especially as we get closer to Halloween. She said if you're looking for a good "Who Dun It?" mystery, pick this book up today!

The Girls: A Novel | Emma Cline
post image
Pickpick

Our IT Manager just finished this book and gave it 3/5 stars. She said, "If Ann Beattie wrote Helter Skelter, you'd have The Girls. Similar enough to the Manson girls to be disconcertingly inaccurate. The Girls feels like summer. It's hot and sticky and a good read. It's probably more interesting if you're not trying to match the characters to real life."

The lives of the Barrett Family are torn apart when 14 year old Marjorie displays signs of acute schizophrenia...or is it a demonic possession?

"Asia Ansari is adorable and I loved this book. I will admit to skimming parts about love in other countries and some of the dull bits. There was an old-fashioned quality to the book that I liked." - Adult Services Librarian

WanderingBookaneer I wrote on my review that I hadn't picked it up because I thought it was a comedian's rantings. I was pleased to see there was social logical research in it. Personally, I enjoyed the love and other countries bit; especially Dubai and Japan. 8y

We're in love with this book!
Our Adult Librarian says: "I LOVED this book! Quite possibly my favorite that I've read this year. I felt like I was visiting this town. I got to know the characters and fell in love. I'm off to read Major Pettigrew's Last Stand!"

Our Adult Librarian gave a very comical and honest review: "What has happened to the close reading of a good editor? This story was good until it became a hot mess. Too much story crammed into too small a space. And whiny characters. Meh."

tnorris I've been hearing the same thing! Tempted to take my name off the wait list at the library... 8y

Some readers may not connect with this story, while others may find it hits them right where they live... It all depends on your own life experience.

According to the book jacket, the author has crafted a "bold and compelling reimagining of the iconic love story that will inspire and enthrall readers". And then the author apologizes in the foreword... What are your thoughts?

One of our managers is currently listening to the audiobook. She says (and I quote), "I can't wait to hop in my truck every day! It's that good!"

Reader will wonder if the main character is male or female, and question if the answer truly matters.
