The Big Sleep
by Raymond Chandler
View in Library Catalog
book cover


This is a good old fashioned detective story where women were “dames” and were “notin but trouble”. The language is fun and the central character is the grounding influence here as everyone else in the story is either crazy or a killer…..and one is both.
The Summer We Ran

book cover


This is the story of a woman and her ex-lover who wind up running for governor at the same time. It’s wonderfully done, mixing the story with present day natation and that of the past. It also tells the story from both protagonists’ point of view. And there is so much more to this story than first appears, and even when you think you have the whole story a whole other layer appears. I thoroughly enjoyed this book!

I loved this book—captivating, emotional, and beautifully written. The characters felt real, and the story kept me hooked. The ending left me heartbroken, though. We don’t always get the happy ending we want or deserve, and this book is a powerful reminder of that.

This translated book from Japanese was very interesting. A boy of high school age who works in his family’s bookstore has just lost his grandfather who he lived with. He shuts himself away in the bookstore until a strange visitor comes into the shop. I liked the different writing this book presented as well as the way it presents a different way of looking a books.
