It's April! Many Wilmette and Kenilworth residents may be reading "Claire of the Sea Light" by Edwidge Danticat, our One Book, Everybody Reads author for this year. Whether you are reading that, our online book club pick for April, "Anansi Boys" or something completely different, let us know!

I am about halfway through Yrsa Sigurðardóttir's new book, "I Remember You." Thus far, it's kept me up for half a night completely terrified that a ghost was lurking behind me. It's a mystery, like her usual books, but this one is more of a ghost story as well. Her other books are all well written and suspenseful, but this one shows how much she's grown as a story teller. Plus, if you've ever been to Iceland it's nice to read her books and relive the streets and neighborhoods.

I just picked up Astonish Me, by Maggie Shipstead. I adored Maggie's first book, Seating Arrangements (don't let the cover/synopsis fool you--it's quite smart) and can't wait to dive into her next one!

I'm reading A Thread of Grace by Mary Doria Russell. Italy, 1943. Love her writing!
