Our Library staff members are sharing their favourite mystery books or series. The list is small for one very important reason; many of us agree on the best mysteries out there.
Read-Alike Recommendations: The Giver of Stars, by Jojo Moyes
British author, Jojo Moyes, is one of our most popular authors at Halifax Public Libraries. With the help of NoveList, we’ve put together a list of similar titles that you may be interested in. All of these books are available for immediate download (no waitlists!) through hoopla, a resource you can access for free using your library card.
Short Stories for the Win
When your mind is overflowing, or slowed down to a crawl, a novel can feel like a monumental task. But a short story can usually be read in one sitting. It’s a mini-escape and at the end, you feel like you’ve accomplished something. So check that off your list and pat yourself on the back. Bonus: Next time you can travel on another, completely different escape. Here are some suggestions.
