NEW BOOKS\u00a0<\/strong>–\u00a0<\/strong>Our New Books on the 7-Day Shelf this week are: \u201cUnsolved\u201d by James Patterson and David Ellis, \u201cThe Favorite Daughter\u201d by Kaira Rouda and \u201cCity of Girls\u201d by Elizabeth Gilbert.<\/p>\n

STAFF PICKS FOR THE MONTH OF JULY ARE; <\/strong>\u201cThe Kite Runner\u201d by Khaled Hossein, \u201cHow to Stop Time\u201d by Matt Haig, \u201cThe Whistler\u201d by John Grisham and this week\u2019s feature is \u201cBeartown\u201d by Fredrik Backman.\u00a0 (from book jacket)<\/p>\n

People say Beartown is finished. A tiny community nestled deep in the forest, it is slowly losing ground to the ever-encroaching trees. But down by the lake stands an old ice rink, built generations ago by the working men who founded this town. And in that ice rink is the reason people in Beartown believe tomorrow will be better than today. Their junior ice hockey team is about to compete in the national semi-finals, and they actually have a shot at winning. All the hopes and dreams of this place now rest on the shoulders of a handful of teenage boys.<\/em><\/p>\n

Being responsible for the hopes of an entire town is a heavy burden, and the semi-final match is the catalyst for a violent act that will leave a young girl traumatized and a town in turmoil. Accusations are made and, like ripples on a pond, they travel through all of Beartown, leaving no resident unaffected.<\/em><\/p>\n

Beartown explores the hopes that bring a small community together, the secrets that tear it apart, and the courage it takes for an individual to go against the grain. In this story of a small forest town, Fredrik Backman has found the entire world.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n
