The Paris Wife by Paula McLain

In the hard-drinking and fast-living life of Jazz Age Paris, they become the golden couple in a lively and volatile group including Gertrude Stein, Ezra Pound, and F. Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald.

The Family Fang by Kevin Wilson
Recommended By: Kirby Richards
A brother and sister are forced to return to their family home after a bad economy and even worse personal choices leave them no other choice. Unfortunately, they've spent most of their adult lives trying to distance themselves from their famous artist parents. Together under one roof for the first time in over ten years, the siblings are forced to confront the chaos and confusion of their childhood. Order HERE.
Unbroken by Laura Hillenbrand
Recommended By: Amy Triggs
The bestselling author of Seabiscuit tells the inspiring true story of Louie Zamperini--a juvenile delinquent-turned-Olympic runner-turned-Army hero. After his plane crashed into the ocean during a routine search mission over the Pacific, he endures unimaginable catastrophes over the next three years - and comes out stronger. Order HERE.
Outliers by Malcolm Gladwell
Recommended By: Kelly Gill
"I know this may sound dorky, but I have been into Malcolm Gladwell lately. Just finished Outliers and loved it," Kelly shares. What makes the most famous and most successful people different than the rest of us? The answer, Gladwell contends, lies not in what these people are like, but rather in where they are from: their culture, family, generation and upbringing. Order HERE.
