It’s not easy being green with this #BookFaceFriday!

Happy St. Patrick’s Day! We’re celebrating with an Irish author for this #BookFaceFriday. Born in Dublin, Emma Donoghue is a worldwide bestselling author, and we have several of her books available, like “Frog Music: A Novel” (Back Bay Books, 2015.) This title is available as both an eBook and an Audiobook in Nebraska OverDrive Libraries. It’s also a part of the “St. Patrick’s Day: Irish Authors/Settings” collection on Nebraska OverDrive Libraries. Check out all the titles in this carefully curated collection of books by Irish authors or with Irish settings/themes.

“Donoghue flawlessly combines literary eloquence and vigorous plotting in her first full-fledged mystery, a work as original and multifaceted as its young murder victim…. An engrossing and suspenseful tale about moral growth, unlikely friendship, and breaking free from the past.”

―Sarah Johnson, Booklist (Starred Review)
