Everything I Never Told You by Celeste Ng

Everything I Never Told You is both a gripping page-turner and a sensitive family portrait, exploring the divisions between cultures and the rifts within a family, and uncovering the ways in which mothers and daughters, fathers and sons, and husbands and wives struggle all their lives, to understand one another. For fans of this book, try The Sleepwalker's Guide to Dancing by Mira Jacob, or The Lovely Bones by Alice Sebold.

Beartown by Fredrik Backman

Backman's most complex novel to date takes place in the small, hockey-crazed village of Beartown.

The Late Show by Michael Connelly

Relegated to the night shift after filing a sexual harassment complaint against a supervisor, a once up-and-coming LAPD detective disobeys orders by refusing to walk away from two cases, including an assault on a prostitute and the death of a young woman in a nightclub shooting. For fans of this book, try Paradise Valley by C.J. Box, or Boar Island by Nevada Barr.
