You voted, they counted, and IN THE LIVES OF PUPPETS by TJ Klune (in the #1 spot!) and THE SCOURGE BETWEEN STARS by Ness Brown are LibraryReads picks for April 2023!

PLUS Sally Hepworth adds to her Hall of Fame-ness with THE SOULMATE!

PLUS the LibraryReads board chose SOME DESPERATE GLORY by Emily Tesh as their Bonus Pick!

IN THE LIVES OF PUPPETS by TJ Klune (the #1 pick)
9781250217448 | 4/25/23

“Readers who loved Klune’s previous works will find plenty of the author’s trademark charm, heart, and bittersweetness, while those looking for more hopeful robot stories, like A PSALM FOR THE WILD-BUILT by Becky Chambers, will find this interpretation of a robot-future different but just as compelling.”—Library Journal, Starred Review

THE SCOURGE BETWEEN STARS by Ness Brown
9781250834683 | 4/4/23

“Brown’s debut novella is highly recommended for readers who like their science-fictional thrills to be both real and out of this world at the same time.”—Library Journal, Starred Review

THE SOULMATE by Sally Hepworth (Hall of Fame)
9781250229700 | 4/4/23

“Sympathetic characters combined with powerful themes of guilt, love, and loyalty will lead readers to consider the power of self-delusion. Recommended for fans of Liane Moriarty and Fiona Barton.”—Booklist

SOME DESPERATE GLORY by Emily Tesh (Bonus Pick)
9781250834980 | 4/11/23

“Tesh asks us what humanity should stand for, questions what shape justice should take, and forces us to take a stark look at what Kyr has to give up in order to be better. Her growth is what powers this expansive story with an action-packed pace full of exciting battles and gut-wrenching twists.”—Booklist, Starred Review
