The Lost Book of Bonn by Brianna Labuskes

Sara spotted this in the library, after we both enjoyed the hell out of *The Librarian of Burned Books*, she read it first. This is maybe slightly better than that book, somehow managing to be more hopeful in spite (or maybe because) of the greater magnitude of loss in if. Multiple story lines carried off with remarkable grace, again a subtext bubbling to the surface screaming about the present day. Very highly recommended.

Big Chief by Jon Hickey

  Another really good novel--and this one by an author entirely new to me. I think this is his debut, so probably new to just about everyone...
