We got some super new things in June.

- Book of numbers by Joshua Cohen. Reviewed in the NY Times, but we ordered it after the NPR interview.

- Etta and Otto and Russell and James by Emma Hooper
- Uprooted by Naomi Novik
- Re Jane by Patricia Park. Modern retelling of Jane Eyre. I bought it after seeing three reviews, one in Entertainment Weekly, one in Booklist, and one on NPR… with news sources that diverse it should be at least interesting, right?
- A head full of ghosts by Paul Tremblay
- The diver’s clothes lie empty by Vendela Vida. NPR said it best “both a travel cautionary tale and a fantasy about the infinite possibility that travel offers.” I would describe it as a sort of experimental mystery.
