What SIBA Booksellers have to say:

Exhibit : A Novel by R. O. Kwon
Sexy sentences, startling images, complicated characters and unexpected moments of tenderness flesh out Kwon's impressionistic peek inside the art world and the people who inhabit it.
– Rachel Knox Tombolo Books St. Petersburg, Florida

Cactus Country : A Boyhood Memoir by Zoë Bossiere
A lucid and tender coming of age memoir of class and gender expression. With an enjoyable ease, Zoë Bossiere vividly paints the Tucson desert, the colorful residents of the trailer park which gives the memoir its title, and the search for understanding and acceptance.
– Luis Correa Avid Bookshop Athens, Georgia

Swiped : A Novel by L.M. Chilton
Swiped is a delightful Rom-Com-Murder Mystery. I thought I had this one figured out at least three different times, but boy was I wrong.
– Nancy McFarlane Fiction Addiction Greenville, South Carolina

The Ministry of Time : A Novel by Kaliane Bradley
Bureaucracy meets time travel in Kaliane Bradley’s brilliantly imagined and hugely entertaining debut novel. What starts out being quite lighthearted fun - as the expats grapple with such modern concepts as Spotify, germ theory, online dating and feminism - gains depth to become a commentary on colonialism and power.
– Jude Burke-Lewis Square Books Oxford, Mississippi

Sipsworth by Simon Van Booy
This is such a loving, moving story told with such skill and heart, i can’t wait to reread this tiny tale perhaps many times. Anyone who reads it will never look at a mouse or an octogenarian the same way.
– Nancy Pierce Bookmiser, Inc. Marietta, Georgia
