A retelling of David Copperfield from one of my favorite writers. DEMON COPPERHEAD by Barbara Kingsolver. Love Demon's voice, I fell in love with him by page 10. @librarylovefest #ewgc https://t.co/bmQQjCFjXh

Getting my last #libfaves22 picks in just under the wire! Picks 4&5 both by @ElodieITV. Amara is sold into slavery & prostitution in Pompeii, but that's just the beginning of her story. I could not put down WOLF DEN & its sequel THE HOUSE WITH THE GOLDEN DOOR. @UnionSqandCo https://t.co/FaMDz1B58o

Young Maddie Sykes goes to stay with her aunt in a 1940s NC tobacco town and learns life is much more complicated than she ever imagined. I really enjoyed TOBACCO WIVES by @adelejam. @librarylovefest #ewgc https://t.co/Op2CSJzrSr

Amani returns to Jordan with her father to honor the king on his 60th birthday. She hopes to learn more of her family’s past. A novel of the importance of memory - and forgetting. FENCING WITH THE KING by Diana Abu-Jaber is my day 3 #libfaves22. @WWNortonLibrary https://t.co/pUG4nlL5zq
