What SIBA Booksellers have to say:

Overdue: A Novel by Stephanie Perkins
Overdue is such a delight to read. Even with Ingrid's crazy "we're on a break" plan, I thought the characters were fun, fleshed out, and people I would want to be friends with. Slow burn and lots of good fun.
–Christina Tabereaux, The Snail on the Wall in Huntsville, Alabama

Red City by Marie Lu
The balance Lu crafted between Sam and Ari is pure perfection, you could even say it's alchemical. I should have prepared myself for how entranced by this world that I would be, but I was taken off guard in the best way. A fresh addition to fantasy that I can't and won't stop thinking about.
– Sarah Hudson, M. Judson, Booksellers in Greenville, South Carolina

The Wayfinder: A Novel by Adam Johnson
Blending myth, storytelling and historical fact, and touching on themes of over-consumption, power, family, and individual autonomy, The Wayfinder is brilliantly realized, and impeccably researched. It is a mark of Johnson’s skill that he makes a story so remote in time and geography feel wholly alive, and relevant to today’s world.
– Jude Burke-Lewis, Square Books in Oxford, Mississippi

Girl Warrior: On Coming of Age by Joy Harjo
This is a book you keep close. Read these words when you need a friendly reminder that you can move forward, that you can take step after step into the future you desire. Give this book to those you love and treasure.
– Lera Shawver, Bookmarks in Winston-Salem, North Carolina

In a Distant Valley by Shannon Bowring
I inhaled this book! Shannon has a way in her writing that makes you feel like you are a part of the story. She makes the place in Maine seem like a it's own character.
– Suzanne Lucey, Page 158 Books in Wake Forest, North Carolina
