Maybe you’re looking to dive into a dynamic historical drama like the enticing “Anna Karenina” or maybe it’s an investigative exposé that delves into the complexities of the American grocery industry like “Grocery Story”, or maybe you’d like to hold on to every last bit of summer we have left by exploring themes of love, loss and family against the lush backdrop of Appalachia in “Prodigal Summer”.
 
Whatever it may be there is bound to be something here along the shelves that piques your interest. Come on in and explore that with us, we’d love to be your next stop to a good book and a lovely summer day. ☀
