Abide With Me

By Elizabeth Strout

Our Shelf Talker

I loved Olive Kittredge by Ms. Strout and as soon as I finished it I wanted to read something else by the author. This book is set in a small town in Maine and tells the story of a young minister struggling with the loss of his wife. He has two small children and the son goes to live with relatives and he continues to care for the daughter. She is traumatized by her mother's death and becomes mute and regresses in behavior and starts wetting the bed. The cruelty and intrusiveness of a small town is on display when people question whether the minister is having an affair with his housekeeper. This is a truly beautiful book about trying to survive a crisis.

Our Shelf Talker

If you are an animal lover, or not, this book is fascinating and quite tender. It is the story of how Dr. Irene Pepperberg spent 30 years in partnership with an African parrot, Alex, and was the first person to find a depth of intelligence in these parrots. A jaw-dropping story.

American Lion: Andrew Jackson in the White House

By Jon Meacham

Our Shelf Talker

Winner of the 2009 Pulitzer Prize.

This is a remarkable book about one of the most contradictory presidents of our country. Jon Meacham has produced a masterful biography of the man who rose from nothing to the highest office and fundamentally changed the American presidency. A fascinating read.
