★ 5The Other Bennet Sister
Janice Hadlow
Plain, overlooked Mary Bennet finally gets her own story, and it's lovely. If you're an Austen fan, this one's for you.
★ 5Nothing to See Here
Kevin Wilson
A woman is hired to care for two kids who literally burst into flames when they're upset. Somehow this is a tender, hilarious book about love. Loved it.
★ 5Beautyland
Marie-Helene Bertino
A girl who's pretty sure she's an alien faxes her observations about Earth back home. Weird, funny, and it completely won me over.
