App Recommendation: Seek by iNaturalist
Sam first recommended this App on the Library's Facebook page, and Tricia has become obsessed with using it to identify wildflowers. It's a great app to have if you're hiking or just walking in your neighborhood. And if you want to learn more about the plants you identify, check out this guide to Wildflowers of New England on Hoopla!

Staff Picks:
 From Tricia: I really liked that this book is somewhat small and specific in terms of its scope and setting – it’s the story of a 31 year old struggling author and waitress in Boston/Cambridge in 1997. You really feel what Casey’s day to day life is like – working at an upscale Harvard Square restaurant, struggling to complete her novel, dealing with grief, depression and anxiety after her mother dies unexpectedly, and trying to survive under the burden crushing student loan debt. And it is a window into what it must be like to commit to being a writer – the sacrifices and choices necessary to support that dream, and the precarious nature of that life. While there is a love triangle in the book, it is kept somewhat at arm’s length and never feels like the most important thing going on in her life. This book feels like spending time with a person you might actually know, one who is going through a lot, big things and small things, and who you worry about and root for. While I enjoyed Lily King’s last book, Euphoria, which was loosely based on the life of Margaret Mead, this book felt emotionally grounded and relatable in a way that I really responded to.You can find Writers and Lovers, as well as Lily King’s other novels, on Hoopla.
