"The Book of Goose" by Yiyun Li
"This moving, lyrical novel from award winning author Yiyun Li will be of interest to readers who love Elena Ferrante's Neapolitan series. CU Boulder professor Megan O'Grady, reviewing the title for the New York Times Book Review, calls 'The Book of Goose' 'the most propulsively entertaining of Li’s novels, and Li herself 'one of our finest living authors.'"

Library Stories
“What an extraordinary event JLF was this weekend! Thank you so much for all of your hard work! Truly awesome!” - JLF Volunteer
A phone patron who self-identified as "still learning to online" asked if we "still had the great help for that" and was delighted to hear Drop in Tech Help was ongoing. She said she was "so grateful for everything the library does to help" and that, essentially, we're "wonderful".
