What is the library staff reading?

You see them in and around the library.

They work with books every day.

Sharon says:  
I have just gotten through reading two of Barbara Delinsky books.  The first one is titled The Carpenter's Lady. It's about a successful television writer, Debra Barry,  who went through a painful divorce. She leaves New York for the beautiful countryside of New Hampshire where she hopes to mend her broken heart. After buying a house, which needed much repair, she hires a master carpenter, Graham Reed, to fix up the house. Graham, who is hiding from his own bitter pass, reluctantly agrees to take the job. As the house begins to come together, Graham and Debra unexpectedly find themselves laying their own emotional groundwork.

The second book is titled An Accidental Woman.  Poppy Blake was injured in a long-ago snowmobile accident which took the use of her legs. She was having a hard time believing that handsome reporter, Griffin Hughes, could be interested in her. Griffin is afraid how Poppy will feel about him when she finds out that he inadvertently gave a tip that sent Poppy's good friend, Heather, to jail for a 15- year-old murder of her former lover. Now Griffin must uncover the truth about what really happened in Heather's past and try to clear her of any wrongdoing.

I just recently finished The Godfather Returns, by Mark Winegardner.  It's a new novel, based on the Godfather series by Mario Puzo.  It's a great read, and I highly recommend it!
  BOB TOMCZYK
Tom says:
Right now, I'm reading The Whole Truth by David Baldacci.  The book is about Nicolas Creel.   He heads up the world's largest defense contractor, The Ares Corporation. Dick Pender is the man Creel retains to "perception manage" his company to even more riches by manipulating international conflicts. But Creel may have an even grander plan in mind.
  ESTHER BURNS
Esther says:
I just finished reading The Hunger Games series by Suzanne Collins.  All three books are so exciting, and you absolutely won't be able to put them down until you're finished!  I also just started See You in a Hundred Years, by Logan Ward.  It's about a family that decides to live for a year exactly as people did in the year 1900.  It's very interesting!

How about you? What are you reading right now?
