Most-Anticipated Books for 2021

[Andrea, Hospitality Coordinator]

It's already time to be thinking about which books we want to read in 2021.

What new releases are you eager to get your hands on?

What older books (published prior to 2021) are you excited to finally read in the coming year?

[Christine]

I want to read the Christy award winners this year. Also the New Collen Cossette book, she hits it right under the wire for 2020. Hope to get these done of the first of the year!

But for older books the list is too long to name as I still have a huge back log of books I want to read.
