New Adult Fiction: Wednesday, November 13

What could be better than curling up with a good book? We’ve got tons of new books coming in regularly—stop by and check them out. We will continue to offer “Grab and Go” services for those who prefer to place their books on hold online and then pick them up in the cabinet inside the library.

Here are a few of the new books that have arrived at the library recently. We invite you to check them out!

Into the Uncut Grass

In the tradition of The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse comes a gorgeously illustrated fable about a young child’s journey into the world beyond the shadow of home, a magical landscape where he discovers the secrets of solidarity, connection, and finding peace with the people we love. Infused with the author’s signature wit and imagination, in collaboration with visionary artist Sabina Hahn, it’s a tale for readers of all ages—to be read aloud or read alone.

Dreaming of Autumn Skies

Caroline has endured immeasurable loss, isolation, and cruelty in her young life. With her mother deceased and her father remarried, Caroline finds herself under the thumb of her controlling grandfather once again. Determined not to allow her suffering to have been in vain, Caroline embarks on a campaign to reclaim her own power and win over the most powerful person in her family. She will stop at nothing to build the life—and the independence—she so desperately dreams of.

Death and the Old Master

Something is bothering Sir Flyte Rascallian, renowned art expert and Master of Hardwick College at the University of Cambridge. Are the grimy paintings he recently inherited from his aunt as worthless as he claims? When Sir Flyte is found murdered in the Master’s Lodge, Detective Chief Inspector Arthur St. Just must unravel his unusual actions to solve the death of the old master. College fellows, staff, and students all agree something was amiss. But as St. Just investigates, he quickly becomes entangled in a web of deception following the trail of priceless artwork people would kill to possess.
