The Flyleaf Four- June 2011
Fiction Pick:
The Sisters Brothers by Patrick deWitt
Land says:
The borderline psychopathic Sisters Brothers, renown gunslingers on a job, are the main stars in this smoothly written western. But the menagerie of unforgettable villians, shopkeeps and love interestes taht are introduced every few pages make this a page-turner. Even if they often seem to lack one, there is a place in your heart for the Sisters Brothers.
Non-fiction pick:
Blood, Bones & Butter: The Inadvertent Education of a Reluctant Chef by Gabrielle Hamilton
Sarah's recommendation to come... but she loved it!
Kids Picture Book Pick:
Me…Jane by Patrick McDonnell
An absolutely delightful and heart-warming book by Patrick McDonnell tells the story of the young Jane Goodall and her special childhood toy chimpanzee named Jubilee. As the young Jane observes the natural world around her with wonder, she dreams of "a life living with and helping all animals," until one day she finds that her dream has come true. A Flyleaf favorite!
Middle Grade Pick:
Theodore Boone: The Abduction
by John Grisham
Theodore Boone is back in a new adventure, and the stakes are higher than ever. When his best friend, April, disappears from her bedroom in the middle of the night, no one, not even Theo Boone-who knows April better than anyone-has answers. As fear ripples through his small hometown (Chapel Hill!) and the police hit dead ends, it's up to Theo to use his legal knowledge and investigative skills to chase down the truth and save April. We will have SIGNED copies!
