The Great Alone
By Kristin Hannah
I absolutely loved this book from beginning to end. I seriously couldn’t get enough and was sad when it ended. A great story of the family who is dealing with household abuse and trying to escape it while trying to survive in a small, remote, close knit community of Alaska.

The War Outside
By Monica Hesse
What a book. I felt so much while reading this. I was excited by this book because I love historical fiction and I have never read any historical fiction about the internment camps in America. I was excited that it had both Japanese and German experiences represented in this book. But this book was about so much more than that. It was about what it means to love and to sacrifice for love. It was about friendship and connection in the hardest of times. It was about complex families. I really loved this book and would highly recommend it to anyone interested.

Unsheltered
By Barbara Kingsolver
Two families (and their contemporaries) in two different centuries and therefore two different social milieu brought together by residing in the same house wrestle with what is means to feel sheltered - at home - and what it takes to feel the freedom of being unsheltered. A thoughtful work asking serious questions.

The Last Days Of Rabbit Hayes
By Anna McPartlin
This is a lovely, funny story about an Irish family (set in Ireland) grappling with the imminent death of one of their own. The author does an outstanding job of showing what hospice offers and how it can help healing. The family in the story moves through their fears and sadness about saying goodbye to her to loving her through her dying. Highly recommended.

The Cornwalls Are Gone
By James Patterson
Her family is missing, is it her fault? She must find them before they are murdered. Twists and turns till the end of course.
