the indie NEXT list The Nightingale A Novel, by Kristin Hannah (St. Martin’s Press, 9780312577223, $27.99) “Filled with sacrifice, betrayal, suspense, courage, and ultimately, forgiveness, The Nightingale offers a haunting glimpse of what it was like for women to survive during WWII. Set in a small town in France, The Nightingale tells the alternating stories of two sisters, their father, and the friends and enemies that occupy their lives during this tragic period of history. Based on a true story, The Nightingale weaves a riveting tale around the heroism of Isabelle, a young woman who serves as a key player in the underground Resistance, and her sister, Viann, who is back home under German occupation, near starvation and struggling to save Jewish children. In the end, however, perhaps this novel is more about the sisterly bonds of love that, although stretched to the limit, still endure. You will not forget the song of The Nightingale.” Marnie Mamminga, Redbery Books, Cable, WI A Spool of Blue Thread Sweetland A Novel, by Michael Crummey (Liveright, 9780871407900, $24.95) Recommended by Sarah Goddin, Quail Ridge Books & Music, Raleigh, NC Get in Trouble Stories, by Kelly Link (Random House, 9780804179683, $25 Recommended by Nichole McCown, Bookshop Santa Cruz, Santa Cruz, CA The Swimmer A Novel, by Joakim Zander (Harper, 9780062337245, $27.99) Recommended by Darwin Ellis, Books on the Common, Ridgefield, CT Mort(e) A Novel, by Robert Repino (Soho Press, 9781616954277, $26.95) Recommended by Mariga Temple-West, Big Blue Marble Bookstore, Philadelphia, PA Migratory Animals A Novel, by Mary Helen Specht (Harper Perennial, 9780062346032, paper, $14.99) Recommended by Annie B.
