Laura Lane McNeal recommends
The Paragon Hotel (2019)
Lyndsay Faye
"Full of wry wit, dark humor and magnificent period details, THE PARAGON HOTEL is a wickedly poetic tour de force."
Rush (2018)
Lisa Patton
"In RUSH, Lisa Patton digs deep into the secret world of sorority rush where sisterhood is held sacred. But beneath these bonds a groundswell is emerging threatening to break apart the sisterhood and dismantle the sorority unless a long standing tradition can be broken. This engaging and poignant novel will have you wanting to jump right in along with the characters to fight for what is right."
The Bookshop at Water's End (2017)
Patti Callahan Henry
"In lush, lyrical prose, Henry explores the power of forgiveness, especially in ourselves. Every page was a treat."
