Looking for a good read from OPL's online content? Here are my recommendations, available as an ebook and/or downloadable audiobook.
The Dutch House by Ann Patchett: This is an engrossing family mystery. I highly recommend the downloadable audiobook from Libby, as it is narrated by Tom Hanks! He is an excellent narrator and even the author was impressed: “Tom Hanks took The Dutch House and gave it a layer of depth and nuance I never could have imagined". It is also available as an Express ebook from Cloud Library.
