week of 18 June 2018

While it may be a quiet week with only 12 new titles and four reprints, it's one filled with romance and realistic fiction.  For those who enjoy psychological thrillers, be sure to pick up Dive Smack from debut author Demetra Brodsky.  Whatever you choose, happy reading!

Dive Smack by Demetra Brodsky
 
Title: Dive Smack, Author: Demetra BrodskyTheo Mackey only remembers one thing for certain about the fire that destroyed his home: he lit the match.
Sure, it was an accident. But the blaze killed his mom and set his dad on a path to self-destruction. Everything else about that fateful night is full of gaping holes in Theo’s mind, for good reason. Maybe it’s better that way. As captain of the Ellis Hollow Diving Team, with straight A's and solid friends, he's only one semester away from securing a scholarship, and leaving his past behind.
But when a family history project gets assigned at school, new memories come rushing to the surface, memories that make Theo question what he really knows about his family, the night of the fire, and if he can trust anyone—including himself.
A 2018 Junior Library Guild Selection
"In an impressive debut, Brodsky injects her teen drama with ambiguity, and a subtle hint of paranormal phenomena, leaving readers to guess at what’s really going on. Strong characters and a compelling mystery make this a real page-turner." — Publishers Weekly
