HML’s library staff share their favorite book read recently.
Janel - Library Assistant/Adult Services - The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo, by Taylor Jenkins Reid
A celebrated Hollywood icon sets out to publish her tell-all life's story, full of scandals, glamour, and of course, men. Unknown journalist Monique is surprised when Evelyn hires her to write her autobiography, but as the story unfolds, it's clear that she was not chosen randomly.
Rebekah - Circulation Clerk - The Silent Patient, by Alex Michaelides
The Silent Patient was the perfect thriller, just as the cover states. It was a psychological roller coaster with a surprise ending. I won't spoil it. ;)
Brittany - Interim Director - The Merciless, by Danielle Vega
The Merciless is a story about a girl who has been possessed by a demon...or has she?
Lindsey - Children’s Services - Hide, by Kiersten White
Enter a game where fourteen compete in a high-stakes game of hide and seek, with a prize of fifty thousand dollars - all they have to do is stay hidden from sunrise to sunset for one week, and the money is theirs. One part Hunger Games, one part The Ritual, all suspense.
Steve - Circulation Clerk - Happy Go Lucky, by David Sedaris
Another fantastic book from the hilarious David Sedaris, great for short bursts of giggles and relatable annoyances.
