#Libfaves25 Day 5: HOLLER: A GRAPHIC MEMOIR OF RURAL RESISTANCE by Denali Sai Nalamalapu Appalachia is for life, not for profit! (Quibble: I think is more accurately long journalism than memoir, but I won't hold the title against it)

Day 5 of #libfaves25 is RABBIT MOON by Jennifer Haigh. I have been reading this author from the beginning and this novel shows her growth. (Plus, we are alums of the same small college, #dickinsoncollege.)

Today's #LibFaves25 pick is Catherine Chidgey's THE BOOK OF GUILT. This sinister story of three boys living in a very unusual children's home in an alternate history England had me 100% hooked from its first pages. If you like unsettling dystopian vibes, this is the book for you! 💙📚

AMITY by Nathan Harris is absolutely terrific! It made my (rather late) #libfaves25 list.

Choice for day 6 of #LibFaves25 is GREENTEETH. Read this fairly early this year and still am thinking about this lovely reworking of a monster and the story's delicate thinking through of agency.

Day 6 of #libfaves25 is THE RAVEN SCHOLAR by Antonia Hodgson, truly one of the best fantasies I've read in years. #fantasy #booksky

Day 8 of #libfaves25 is SAY YOU'LL REMEMBER ME by Abby Jimenez. Samantha and Xavier have a meet cute at his vet office that almost goes awry. But after one amazing date, Samantha moves 2000 miles away. Can they make long distance work? Family drama, travel snafus, and a cute kitten! (read on audio)

SO excited to see this! We love Thrity and her writing! PS: you can see her chat about MISSING SAM here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Vzt...

❤️❤️

Day 2 of #LibFaves25: IF ANYONE BUILDS IT, EVERYONE DIES. At a campus pushing hard for AI-fluency without much detail on what that means yet and a general grumbler about AI, this alarming look at a very plausible future unless we quickly make some big decisions is truly horrifying.

#Libfaves25 day 2 is THE QUIET LIBRARIAN by Allen Eskens. This thriller is about a librarian’s past coming back to haunt her after her best friend is murdered. Loved it.

Keeping with yesterday’s Italian theme, my #LibFaves25 Day 2 pick is IT HAD TO BE HIM by Adib Khorram! After years apart, two high school friends reconnect by happenstance in Italy and fall fast for each other. A fun, spicy second chance romance that has me looking forward to a trip to Italy!

EVERYBODY WANTS TO RULE THE WORLD EXCEPT ME by Django Wexler #LibFaves25 2nd book in the David duology, abt a woman who finds herself living a Groundhog Day existence in a fantasy world she's supposed to save, but instead she decides to become the Big Bad. www.goodreads.com/book/show/22...

Day 3 #libfaves25 choice is SOFTLY, AS I LEAVE YOU by Priscilla Presley. There were times I thought she was a bit of an unreliable narrator but was still engrossed in her life. Pair this with her daughter's memoir, FROM HERE TO THE GREAT UNKNOWN, for a "mom said/daughter said" comparison.

Summer for thousands of people in Ann Arbor, Mich., means scavenging for hidden codes around the city and voraciously reading books to collect points. It's part of an enormously popular game that's been a triumph for the public library that runs it. www.npr.org/2025/08/04/n...
