|
|
| | "I finished The Road by Cormac McCarthy and was mesmerized by it. My first McCarthy book and you can see I already have another in the queue. The Hoover book is insanely well written and interesting!" |
|
|
| | | | "J. P. Morgan’s personal librarian, the woman who assembled the collection for him, was in fact a light-skinned Black American woman whose mother decided that her children’s lives would be improved by passing as White. Fascinating fictionalization of the true story of Belle da Costa Greene whose eye & savvy skills made the J. P. Morgan Library." |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| | "Outraged that I had never read Updike, a friend grabbed this off his shelf and sent me off with it. The book weaves together short stories originally published piecemeal in The New Yorker, The Atlantic, Playboy, etc, about a complicated married couple who both love and hate each other through the 1950's, 60's and 70's (think 'War of the Roses.') The Maples can be cruel and cringey, but also kind, honest, and hopeful. I dunno...sounds like most relationships! BONUS: love the retro paperback cover!" |
|
|
| | | | "How often have you sat down and thought about the top 5 things you do/have done in your life that have led to actual joy, happiness, contentment? This author takes about a year to test out the most popular habits of happy people, try them out, and see if they work! Does de-cluttering your life, home, and inbox do more than simplify things? Does the addition of exercise actually make you joyful? In the pursuit of happiness, the methods must be explored! I loved reading it, and think more deeply about my own joy. I think you will too!" |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| | "I just finished Poverty, By America' by Matthew Desmond who won a Pulitzer Prize in 2016 for Evicted: Poverty and Profit in the American City. It is a poignant and eye-opening exploration of the harsh realities faced by those living in poverty in the United States.While a difficult read, this book offers a powerful call to action for addressing systemic issues and fostering empathy and understanding." |
|
|
| | | | "Lessons in Chemistry is a refreshing take on a career-driven woman, set during a time where women had to fight against misogyny in the workplace and daily life. The main character Elizabeth, is a beautiful representation of women, with her intelligence, charisma and resilience. This book is a must read for me because of its ability to demonstrate a powerful woman defying societal norms while still leaving room for laughter and the occasional tears. What better time to dive in, then Women's History Month?!" |

Emilie Sommer: East City Books |
| JPM is also partnering with our favorite local bookstore East City Books who always has great picks! Like this from Bookseller Emilie Sommer... "I didn’t know I needed another WWII novel until I found The Postcard, but trust me, it’s worth revisiting such well-trod territory in Anne Berest’s masterpiece. In 2003 the author’s family received an anonymous postcard containing no message other than the names of four close relatives who died in the Holocaust. The postcard’s origin and meaning are completely unclear. Many years later, our narrator finds herself consumed with finding out more and identifying the sender. What follows is both a family history and a family mystery. Though written as a novel, this is a true story — and it’s magnificent!" Stop by East City or find out more HERE! |
