Large Print
No Man's Nightingale by Ruth Rengell. I've read great things about Rendell's novels.
Hostage by Kay Hooper. Gun on the cover looks like a CZ-75. Hard to tell with the weird photoshopping.
Morning Glory by Sarah Jio. This cover looks real familiar.
A Sensible Christmas by Sherryl Woods. This should have been here in October. I'm not sure Christmas novels check-out in January.
Seven Deadlies by Gigi Levange. "A cautionary tale." Our regular print copy has never checked out. Dang, I thought it sounded like a neat idea with a teen girl paid to babysit irresponsible rich teens.
Death of the Black-haired Girl by Robert Stone. I really dislike hyphenated words. Married college professor decides to quit relationship with student. Trouble ensues. Our regular print copy has gone out once.
NonFiction
