Marvelous (2023)
Molly Greeley
"One of the most moving novels I've read in years, Marvelous is an extraordinary portrait of the extraordinary marriage that inspired 'Beauty and the Beast.' Rich in compassion, wonder, and intimacy, Molly Greeley's latest will break your heart open in the best possible way, proof that the best fairy tales are woven from the mysteries of human experience. Simply superb."
The Prophet's Wife (2022)
Libbie Grant
"The Prophet's Wife is one of finest books I have read in some time. Not only is it a gorgeously written and nuanced examination of the evolution of an American faith, The Prophet's Wife offers a deeply affecting portrait of the marriage between a complicated man and the strong woman caught in the storm of his making. A masterpiece of a novel perfect for fans of Hilary Mantel and Geraldine Brooks. Don't miss this one!"
The Next Ship Home (2022)
Heather Webb
"A touching and intimate story of two very different young women who join forces in turn-of-the-century New York City to overcome the odds. As a long time fan of Heather Webb's novels, The Next Ship Home is her most accomplished and emotionally compelling book to date. The insightful historical details delving into the Ellis Island immigration process make this novel essential reading for anyone yearning to understand the roots of the American Experience. Highly recommended."
