Zeal
Morgan Jerkins
This multigenerational novel spans 150 years of slavery up to the pandemic, including star-crossed lovers...and the story of how family secrets and wounds are passed down through the ages - it’s a rich novel that begins with an engagement party in Brooklyn and moves beautifully from there.

We Are Watching
Alison Gaylin
I love a thriller that holds my attention and isn’t formulaic - @alison.gaylin opens the story with a bang on a family road trip and in the aftermath, a prophetical book written 30 years earlier begins to offer clues as to why the Russo family has become the object of so much attention.

I love anything @ozbrooks100 writes. This is a gem of a treatise about the author’s grief and the experience of losing her husband. Tony Horowitz was an extraordinary writer and journalist. It sounds like he was an amazing person too.
