Inspired by the true history of Missoula’s Boxcar Library, Labuskes transports readers to a time and place where powerful corporations seek complete control of the workers and dedicated women are determined to expand the transformative power of words.
Inspired by the true story of Simnel, Harkin (Tell Me an Ending) portrays a young man struggling to find himself in a world of intrigue, deception and danger. This novel would benefit from a foreword or afterword explaining the history of the York-Tudor conflict, but it may send readers on a hunt for more information about Simnel and the War of the Roses.
Jones (The Birdcatcher) rambles somewhat aimlessly, like Buddy, offering a character that should have been more compelling and a story that plods along.
Dray (The Women of Chateau Lafayette) introduces readers to this real-life trailblazing woman who is the mother of Social Security and became the first woman appointed to a United States presidential cabinet. A fictionalized portrayal of a phenomenal woman who has largely been lost to history.
Davis shares memorable facts about the Rockettes and Marion’s struggle to balance 1950s society’s expectations of what it means to be a woman with her desire to break free. Fans of Davis’s previous books will be enthralled.
Hallett (The Appeal) creates a unique and imaginative mystery utilizing both an unreliable narrator and mainly epistolary format. The tale spins wildly, and readers are never certain regarding the facts. It’s tough going at first but worth sticking with for Smithy.
