Looking for a good book to read? Or, are you searching for a new favorite author? Our librarians will be happy to assist you with suggestions to suit your taste. Here are a couple of the latest librarian-recommended books, also available in large print and CD. 
The Confessor by Daniel Silva is a superbly spun thriller featuring Gabriel Allon, art restorer/Mossad spy, who returns to yet another tale of espionage. The novel's theme revolves around whether or not the Catholic Church turned a blind eye to Nazi atrocities against the Jews during World War II. This solidly plotted, well-crafted story will appeal to readers who enjoy authors such as John le Carre and Allen Furst.
The Girl With No Shadow by Joanne Harris is the sequel to Chocolat. It continues the story of Vianne, who has reinvented herself as the widow Yanne Charbonneau. Her daughter, previously known as Anouk, is now called Annie. The novel is written in several voices, and its characters are amazing, interwoven, and perfectly articulated. For all who loved Chocolat, this is a must read!
