Reading Suggestions for 2021

1/2/2021

 
Picture
People often ask me to recommend books. I am an avid reader, and I am always happy to introduce patrons to new titles and authors. For 2021, I’ve made a list of 21 books that I recommend and hope you’ll enjoy reading as much as I did. 

It was difficult narrowing my list to 21 titles; however, these books have made a lasting impression on me. When compiling this list, I selected books that are available in various formats from the Yavapai Library Network.

Fiction:
  • Where the Crawdads Sing, by Delia Owens
  • The Book Woman of Troublesome Creek, by Kim Michele Richardson
  • The Flight Attendant, by Chris Bohjalian
  • American Dirt, by Jeanine Cummins
  • Before We Were Yours, by Lisa Wingate
  • The Art Forger, by B.A. Shapiro
  • To Kill a Mockingbird, by Harper Lee
  • Outlander, by Diana Gabaldon
  • Orphan Train, by Christina Baker Kline
  • A Time to Kill, by John Grisham
  • I Am Pilgrim, by Terry Hayes
 
Nonfiction:
  • Hillbilly Elegy, by J.D. Vance
  • Tequila Mockingbird, by Tim Federle
  • Becoming, by Michelle Obama
  • Mister Owita’s Guide to Gardening, by Carol Wall
  • The Moment of Lift, by Melinda Gates
  • The Library Book, by Susan Orlean
  • The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks, by Rebecca Skloot
  • A Walk in the Woods, by Bill Bryson
  • The Monuments Men, by Robert M. Edsel
  • Dare to Lead, by Brené Brown

You can find more information about each title or author by searching the library catalog at sedonalibrary.org. For newer titles, you may have to wait for a copy if the book is on the bestseller list.

If you need assistance locating a title, placing a hold, renewing items you have checked out, receiving your PIN, or updating your account information, please contact the library at 928-284-1603 or email voc@sedonalibrary.org. We are here to help and look forward to assisting you in 2021.

As the new year begins, we would like to acknowledge our community for continuing to support library services during these challenging times.  A special shout out goes to Clark’s Market for designating Sedona Public Library as a recipient of their Non-Profit Monday program.  Thanks to Dave Miller, store manager, and the crew at Clark’s for encouraging shoppers to support the library. Thank you Clark’s Market and shoppers for your generous gift of $1,572 to support library services.
