📚 Happy New Book Tuesday

This week in new books, we say good-bye to this season with books about gardening and springtime.

🌱In The Someday Garden (Poston) The new head gardener at Lilymoor House stumbles upon a secret garden, with a mysterious man inside; she might be the only person who knows what Lilymoor needs to bloom.
🌱In A Murder in Springtime (Walker), a newcomer to St. Denis is found dead at the home of one of Bruno's best friends--and for once, Bruno feels he is too close to investigate, until it becomes clear that he's the only person who can solve the crime.
🌱 For teen readers: in Tangled Roots & Wild Dreams (Velez) Ezzie Ramos is a champion secret keeper. Her biggest secret - she's interning at Sprout, the urban garden she discovered her father founded just before he died, giving her seven weeks to learn who Papi really was.

📚 Happy New Book Tuesday!

This week in new books, we’re celebrating Pride Month!

⭐In Father Material (Hall), Luc and Oliver have been through it all, but as their friends begin reaching new milestones, advancing careers and having babies, they decide it's time to open their hearts to something new.
⭐The Disaster Gay Detective Agency (Rosen) is a punchy, hilarious mystery-thriller that follows a group of loveable and messy q***r twenty-somethings determined to solve a murder.
⭐Dreams in Which I’m Almost Human (Soyer) is a genre-defying memoir of disability, identity, and desire that fuses lyricism, myth, and medical truth to explore what it means to live and love a body defined by others.
