15 narrators (Therese Plummer)

Housekeeping

by Marilynne Robinson

The first novel from the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Gilead. Despite the novel's title, the story is one of loneliness, transience, and loss. Set in the isolated (and imaginary) town of Fingerbone, Idaho, Robinson unfolds the story of two sisters and the stream of temporary caregivers that enter their lives, one after another, after the death of their mother and grandmother.

Don’t Look for Me

by Wendy Walker

From the publisher: "The greatest risk isn't running away. It's running out of time. One night, Molly Clarke walked away from her life. She doesn't want to be found. Or at least, that's the story. The car abandoned miles from home. The note found at a nearby hotel. The shattered family that couldn't be put back together. They called it a 'walk away.' It happens all the time. Women disappear, desperate to leave their lives behind and start over. But is that what really happened to Molly Clarke?"

What You Wish For

by Katherine Center

I love Katherine Center's fun, easy-reading, relatable novels. School librarian Samantha Casey lives her life with passion and joy, starting over at a new job and new life after loving Duncan Carpenter too long from afar. But now, the best thing that could happen to her new school—a by-the-rules principal is hired—turns out to be Duncan. She doesn't recognize the lovable Duncan she used to know. Center excels at writing books that are light and fluffy—and then you find yourself thinking about them for days, because her themes run much deeper than you realized on the first pass.
