After celebrating our favorite women last Sunday, look no further than the new fiction display for characters that completely embody the Nora Ephron quote, “Above all, be the heroine of your life.”
Four Treasures of the Sky by Jenny Tinghui Zhang – After being kidnapped and smuggled across an ocean from China to America, Daiyu must keep reinventing herself to survive.

The Cartographers by Peng Shepherd – Fans of Joe Hill and V. E.
