Little
Monsters by Kara Thomas has it all: mystery, teen drama, newly
combined families, and a séance at the scene of a horrific murder 100 years
prior. This young adult novel was described as a fun, easy read. HM
Abandoned East
Tennessee: Ruins of Rocky Top by Jay Farrell is filled with
phots of abandoned structures throughout East Tennessee. Our reader was
intrigued by the items that were left behind in some of the photos and wondered
what the stories were behind them. Highly recommended for anyone interested in
old abandoned places. CD
This Terrible
Sound: The Battle of Chickamauga by Peter Cozzens is a graphic
historical account of the battle fought between the North and South in the
mountains of southeastern Tennessee and northwestern Georgia. Describing how
the soldiers would fight for days without food, water, rest, or medical
attention, it is a vivid picture of what is considered one of the bloodiest and
most decisive battles of the Civil War. PC
