The finders keepers library / by Rains, Annie,author.;
"After a bad break-up and a health diagnosis of Lupus earlier this year, Savannah takes an impulsive trip to her favorite aunt's home, where she spent childhood summers. When she arrives, Savannah is surprised to see the house overflowing with books and the garden overflowing with roses. Aunt Eleanor recommends books to her visitors, including Savannah, which help them grow and blossom-just like the flowers she nurtures with so much care. While soul-searching among her aunt's blooms, Savannah stumbles upon her first love-all grown up and more handsome than ever. Evan Sanders has reluctantly agreed to build a gazebo for Eleanor in preparation for the annual gardening contest. This is his first full summer with his daughter after his wife passed away, and he needs to fill it with enough love to make up for all the summers he's missed out on. As Savannah sits in the garden and reads the books that Eleanor handpicks for her, she finds healing and self-discovery in the pages. But is it enough to convince Savannah to risk a second chance with Evan?"--

The Paris library : a novel / by Skeslien Charles, Janet,author.;
"Paris, 1939. Young, ambitious, and tempestuous, Odile Souchet has it all: Paul, her handsome police officer beau; Margaret, her best friend from England; her adored twin brother Remy; and a dream job at the American Library in Paris, working alongside the library's legendary director, Dorothy Reeder. But when World War II breaks out, Odile stands to lose everything she holds dear - including her beloved library. After the invasion, as the Nazis declare a war on words and darkness falls over the City of Light, Odile and her fellow librarians join the Resistance with the best weapons they have: books. They risk their lives again and again to help their fellow Jewish readers. When the war finally ends, instead of freedom, Odile tastes the bitter sting of unspeakable betrayal. Montana, 1983. Odile's solitary existence in gossipy small-town Montana is unexpectedly interrupted by Lily, her neighbor, a lonely teenager longing for adventure. As Lily uncovers more about Odile's mysterious past, they find they share a love of language, the same longings, the same lethal jealousy. Odile helps Lily navigate the troubled waters of adolescence by always recommending just the right book at the right time, never suspecting that Lily will be the one to help her reckon with her own terrible secret. Based on the true story of the American Library in Paris, The Paris Library explores the geography of resentment, the consequences of terrible choices made, and how extraordinary heroism can be found in the quietest of places"--
