What makes a good summer read? For St. Louis Public Library regional branch manager Jen Ohzourk, it’s a book that is captivating, escapist, and easy to put down and pick back up again later — perhaps after a swim or bike ride. On Friday’s St. Louis on the Air, Ohzourk and St. Louis County Library Collection Development Specialist Jennifer Alexander shared their favorite beach reads. JEN OHZOURK'S PICKS: “Rosaline Palmer Takes the Cake” by Alexis J. Hall (2021) “If you like watching 'The Great British Baking Show' and wonder about the real lives of contestants, this quick-paced, fun romance is for you! Single mum Rosaline is competing each week and also falling for another contestant, Alain. However, fellow baker Harry may be just the friend she needs.”
