The Diamond Eye

by Kate Quinn

Kiev was a very different place in
WWII when Ukrainians fought with
the Russian army to expel German Nazis
from Eastern Europe. Student and
historian Lyudmila Pavlichenko was one
of those Ukrainians and became a
famous military sniper for the Russians. This
novel imagines her life in service and very
real efforts to encourage the U.S. and
FDR to enter the war, while she privately
dealt with an estranged husband and her
deeply loved teenage son.

Sea of Tranquility

by Emily St. John Mandel

There is a woodland in Canada where
some who enter may experience a flash
of darkness, notes from a violin, an
unexpected loud noise, a disruption in
time. What has caused this anomaly,
and how does it interconnect the lives of
four individuals who have encountered
it across four centuries? A beautifully
written look at the nature of truth,
reality, morality, and the impact of
human choices.
