Chocolate Chip Cookie Murder

  • Adult Fiction

Delightful introduction to cozy mysteries for someone who may be looking for a new type of book to read. Enter the world of baker Hannah Swenson as she solves a murder case in this first in a long running series of books. Then once you’ve read the book, watch the movie version by borrowing the DVD from the library.

The Tin Drum

  • Realism
I have always greatly appreciated this novel for its ability to encapsulate so much in a single work. It houses so much stylistically, politically, psychologically, and artistically that nothing is spared in what is perhaps the most adept synopsis and assessment of humanity in the 20th century.
