Mr. Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore
Mr. Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore by Robin Sloan (Adventure, Suspense, Travel, Sports)
This book is different from any that I have read. A man takes the night shift at a 24-hour bookstore, but it isn't an ordinary bookstore. His quest for the truth of what books are actually in the bookstore becomes the adventure of a lifetime. -- Added by redwings4ever on 03/03/2013

Argo
Argo by Antonio Mendez (Historical Fiction, Westerns, History)
Well-written, interesting story of the rescue of American hostages from Iran. The book gives a good historical perspective. Not having seen the movie, I don't know how it compares. -- Added by ebamm on 03/03/2013

Lying with strangers by James Grippando (Adventure, Suspense, Travel, Sports)
I've liked all of the books by James Grippando, and this one is okay, but not my favorite. I didn't like the characters as much as in his other books, but if you hold on until the end, there is a nice twist. The story revolves around a doctor who was driven off the road into a frozen pond. She was subsequently helped by an unidentified stranger. This incident turned out to be the beginning of series of troubling events for the doctor. -- Added by ebamm on 03/03/2013
