ADULT PICK
The Unexpected Diva
by Tiffany L. Warren
Elizabeth Taylor Greenfield was born into slavery and raised in the shelter of Philadelphia's Quaker community, nurtured by a wealthy adoptive mother and a voice that spanned three extraordinary octaves. When that shelter disappears, Eliza faces a world with very few doors open to a Black woman in antebellum America, and chooses to walk through the most dangerous one of all. Warren brings to life a real and largely forgotten figure, a woman who toured packed houses across America, faced down racist crowds and slave-catchers, and claimed a stage that was never meant for her.
Bold, moving, and impossible to put down, this is the kind of historical fiction that makes you furious it took this long to tell the story.

YOUNG ADULT PICK
Five Survive
by Holly Jackson
Six friends. An RV stranded in the middle of nowhere. No cell service, no way out, and someone in the dark who wants one of them dead. Holly Jackson does what she does best here, ratcheting up the tension until every secret, every lie, and every fractured friendship inside that RV becomes its own kind of weapon.
If you've ever stayed up way too late because you couldn't put a book down, this is exactly that book. Eight hours until dawn has never felt so long. Clear your schedule before you start this one.
