Rose is a dog with whom I identify; she occupies a small space in the grand scheme of things, but she puts her heart and soul into her work. This novel tells the story -- from her perspective -- of her dedication to a farmer named Sam. The ways in which she helps him overcome the daily and extraordinary challenges of rural life are unexpected and heart-warming. ~ Reviewed by Bonnie Winchester

If you loved The Fault in Our Stars by John Green, you'll swoon over Eleanor and Park, two star-crossed teens growing up in the 1980s. The lack of technology is refreshing because their relationship grows -- not through texts, tweets or Facebook posts -- as they trade comic books and mix tapes. Their "soundtrack" includes Joy Division, The Beatles, XTC, The Smiths, U2, The Cure, Billy Bragg and The Replacements. ~ Reviewed by Bonnie Winchester
