Why read it?

2 authors picked The Lions Of Fifth Avenue as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

I loved the characters—especially the strong women—and didn't want to stop reading.

The plot with the dual timeline was fascinating. I learned about the hidden apartment in the New York Public Library, which is already a place I love, and it made me want to go back there to explore.

The relationships in the book were complex and well-drawn, like characters I love to write and like people I enjoy talking to in real life.

It's a great book and a compelling story!

I loved the dual time-line mystery. It features so many strong women who overcome their circumstances—even when they don’t realize they’re doing it—and the character development is superb. The New York Public Library comes alive, the mystery is twisty and not what it seems, and the characters are unique and memorable.
