I recently reread 'True Biz' by Sara Novic, my choice for May's Community Book Club. This novel was my favorite read of 2023; it is a celebratory amalgam of deaf culture, teenage angst, punk rock, and our overarching need for human connection and community. I'll share some praise from a couple of my favorite authors:

"This is my favorite kind of novel, fascinating and smart and brimming with contrasts. It's a coming-of-age story but also one of anarchy and protest. I laughed. I learned. I entered a world I knew too little about, at once different from mine and of course the same. I will be recommending this book to absolutely everyone." ~Laurie Frankel

"Sara Novic's gifts for character, story, and language are evident from the first page. 'True Biz' feels like the discovery of a new written form, a love letter to language itself." ~Liz Moore

Happy reading!

~Kelly Henkle, Library Director
