1. Theo of Golden
by Allen Levi
Inspiration Fiction
One spring morning, a stranger named Theo arrives in the small southern city of Golden. He does not explain much about where he came from or why he is there.
But one day he visits the local coffeehouse, where pencil portraits of the people of Golden hang on the walls, he begins purchasing them, one at a time,
and giving each portrait to the person depicted.
In exchange, he asks only for the person’s story. And so portrait by portrait, person by person, secrets are revealed, regrets are shared, and ordinary lives are profoundly altered.
This is a story of giving and receiving, of seeing and being seen, Theo of Golden is an unforgettable novel about the power of generosity,
the importance of connection, and the quiet miracles that happen when we choose kindness and compassion rather than self.

2. Project Hail Mary
by Andy Weir
SCIENCE FICTION
This exciting story follows Ryland Grace, a former scientist who wakes up alone on a spacecraft with no memory of who he is, where he is, or why he is there.
As his memories gradually return, he discovers that Earth is facing an extinction-level crisis: the Sun and other stars are mysteriously losing energy,
causing Earth to enter a potentially catastrophic period of cooling.
If you like a book where the fun comes from watching someone figure out impossible problems using science, this is very much that kind of novel. It has a lot of chemistry, physics, engineering, astronomy, and mathematics, but Weir presents them through puzzles and emergencies rather than as textbook explanations.
Project Hail Mary is thankfully considerably more optimistic and humorous than many apocalyptic science-fiction stories.

Story about the lives of twin sisters who run away from a Southern Black community at age 16 diverge as one returns and the other takes on a different racial
identity but their fates intertwine.
"A story of absolute, universal timelessness. A story of what it means to simply be, to grow up and define oneself and reinvent,
to negotiate a place in the world. It's also a deeply American story, rigorously engaged with a country's racist past and present,
while interrogative of its foundational values, like choice and legacy.
For any era, it's an accomplished, affecting novel. For this moment, it's piercing, subtly wending its way toward questions about who we are
and who we want to be" from Entertainment Weekly.

for a future that suddenly seemed an impossible and hopeless dream..
