Delish Ultimate Cocktails by Joanne Saltz
“One of my favorites for entertaining and special occasions! This cookbook features cocktails and mocktails for any occasion as well as Jell-O shots, pudding shots, truffles and popsicles. And remember, almost any boozy recipe can be made into a mocktail.” -Anitta, Yardley-Makefield branch
Gallant by V. E. Schwab
“From the bestselling author of The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue comes a gothic fantasy that follows Olivia Prior, a mute teenager who can see ghosts. Reminiscent of The Haunting of Hill House by Shirley Jackson, Schwab excellently blends elements of folklore to explore themes of family interdependence and the desire to belong.” -Lily, Bensalem branch
Mickey7 by Edward Ashton
“What happens when you’re a clone meant to be used for dangerous jobs and they just make a new one if you die? But what if you didn’t die and now there are two of you? For fans of Andy Weir while they wait for him to write his next one.” -Brian, Quakertown branch
On Turpentine Lane by Elinor Lipman
“When I’m looking for a fun, optimistic book, I turn to Elinor Lipman, and this is my favorite. It incorporates all that Lipman does so well: funny dialogue, quirky characters and a charming love story. There are plenty of laughs along the way to the satisfying conclusion.” -Pat, Yardley-Makefield branch
Small Game by Blair Braverman
“I almost never read a book in one day, but it happened with Small Game! What starts as a survival reality show becomes an actual survival situation, throwing a motley group of characters into a grueling fight for their lives. Come for the fast-paced writing, stay for the details only a writer with adventurer/survival experience can provide.” -Emily, Bucks County Library District
The Surrogate by Toni Halleen
“It starts out with lots of drama, and the characters are complicated and flawed and loveable. The ending is beautiful.” -Victoria, Perkasie branch
