New at the library THE BLUEBONNET BATTLE by Carolyn Brown. In Bon net, Texas, Liddy Latham is widely known as the queen of funeral dinners... until Matilda Monroe moves back to town after spending years living in the big city. Matilda’s style is fancy, healthy, modem and vegan, about as far as it’s possible to get from Liddy’s famous fried chicken and classic Southern comfort food. Before anyone can so much as blink, Liddy and Matilda are right back to the bitter rivalry of their younger days, and it’s ignited a family feud that’s made even worse by their children Nick and Amelia daring to fall in love! Can the star-crossed lovers bring an end to the battle to win their happily ever after? Well, that’s all for now - see you at the library!
