Object of My Affection
by Jill Smolinski
View in Library Catalog
A humorous look at how a personal organizer convinces an elderly artist to divest herself of a houseful of objects she's been hoarding for years. At the same time, the organizer gets to see and understand the why the artist held on to things and why she, herself could not let go of some things in her life. I recommend the book as it really got into some of the whys of hoarding and was written in an uplifting way.

The Language Of Sisters
by Luanne Rice
View in Library Catalog
Although touted as Rice's first "Young Adult" novel on the book jacket, this book is in our Adult Fiction section and I think it is just as appropriate for adult readers. The content regarding texting while driving is relevant to any person behind the wheel and the theme of the bond between sisters resonates for any age. Rice's usual insights into families, love and the ups and downs that all entail are once again prevalent in this book. A quick read, I would recommend it as a great addition to any beach or pool bag!
A Long Way To A Small Angry Planet
by Becky Chambers

This book was a little absurd. I don't typically read sci-fi that involves an entirely new universe and various alien creatures, so maybe it's just not for me. However, I did enjoy many aspects of this story. Chambers created an entire universe with new creatures, social structures, and cultures. From a sociological perspective, it was fascinating. The relationships between the characters were definitely the most intriguing part of this book. The plot itself left a lot to be desired. It truly was about the journey and not the destination. If you enjoy world building and escaping into complex relationships between various species, then this book is for you. However, if you like an adventure story driven more by plot, you may want to look elsewhere.
