![]() Donna Recommends The Scent of Sake Joyce Lebra This is a late 19th Century tale of Japanese culture and tradition, and a young woman, Rie, who defies the norm in order to save the family business. As the only child of a large sake brewing house, she longs to succeed her father, but as a female she must operate behind the scene. Her arranged marriage is loveless and her husband is weak and unfit to run the business. A good read about a strong woman. |
![]() Molly Recommends The Lacemakers of Glenmara Heather Barbieri The notions and thread needed for sewing are a clever metaphor for the qualities useful in navigating life. So begins the tale of Kate Robinson's travels in Ireland. She befriends new people, learns the value of spontaneity and finds a new way to face the world. Themes of friendship, loyalty, imagination, facing fears and differences combine with engaging characters to make this a delightful story. |

![]() Molly Recommends The Girls with the Dragon Tattoo Stieg Larsson I did not want to put this book down! I was hooked right from the start. It is described as "mesmorizing", "unique and fascinating", "exceptional... featuring a cast of indelible sleuths and many juicy suspects". You do get to know these characters, with all their kinks and quirks. Several story lines going on at once -- all wrapped up in the end. I am looking forward to the sequel. |
