Without a Trace by Danielle Steel (Delacorte) is the top holds title of the week. LibraryReads and Library Journal offer read-alikes for patrons waiting to read this buzziest book.

On the surface, Charles Vincent seems to have the perfect life with a beautiful wife, children, and a successful career, yet he feels trapped by his marriage and job, which no longer make him happy. Escaping for the weekend to his château on the Normandy coast, he falls asleep at the wheel and plunges down a cliff. Miraculously, he survives and happens upon a cabin, where he meets a woman who nurses him back to health. As they fall for each other, Charles wonders if he could simply leave his old life behind and build a new, happier one, but their pasts may still catch up with them.—LJ Reviews


You Were There Too by Colleen Oakley (Berkley)

Appeared on the January 2020 LibraryReads list

“Mia is happily married to Harrison, but keeps dreaming about another man. One day her path crosses with this mystery man, and the results are devastating. This is a realistic, engrossing love story suited for fans of Liane Moriarty and Jodi Picoult.”—Danielle Hansard, Public Library of Westland, Westland, MI

Watch Me Disappear by Janelle Brown (Spiegel & Grau)

Appeared on the July 2017 LibraryReads list

“Billie is a beloved and loving wife and mother to Jonathan and Olive—or so they believe. Her disappearance while hiking dredges up secrets about Billie’s radical past, doubts about how well either of them knew the woman around whom their lives revolved, and questions about whether Billie is even dead…or simply vanished. Hand this one to fans of domestic thrillers like The Woman in Cabin 10 or The Couple Next Door. They won’t be disappointed.”—Donna Maturri, Pickerington Public Library, Pickerington, OH

An American Marriage by Tayari Jones (Algonquin; LJ starred review)

Appeared on the February 2018 LibraryReads list 

“Celestial and Roy are newly married professionals leaning in to a bright future when Roy is convicted of a crime he did not commit. This is not a heroes vs. villains tale with a tidy resolution. It is a complicated, messy, moving, and thought provoking story about love, family, and the wide-reaching effects of incarceration. Book clubs get ready!”—Jennifer Alexander, St. Louis County Library, St. Louis, MO
