I came to this book through a New York Times review, and I'm so glad I did — though I'll admit it took some trust to surrender to it fully. Tara Selter is living the same day — November 18th — on an endless loop. We meet her on her 122nd repetition. T ...more |

This was a hard book to read. Emotionally draining, relentlessly dark in stretches, and yet I couldn't put it down and I'm genuinely grateful I didn't. Wally Lamb drops you into Corby Ledbetter's life at its most precarious — new twins, a lost job, a ...more |

Culpability by Bruce Holsinger grabbed me from the first page and didn't let go. I picked it up as a suggested read for a course I was considering, and it turned out to be one of the most thought-provoking novels I've read in a long time. The premise ...more |

I picked up The Pilot's Wife by Anita Shreve at a used book sale, and it turned out to be an engaging read. Yes, it’s clearly from another era. No cell phones, no quick texts to solve problems. But, that added to the tension. Everything unfolds a litt ...more |

| I ended up picking up The Accidental Tourist almost by accident—my sister was clearing off her bookshelves, and I grabbed it on a whim. I had read Anne Tyler before and liked her, so I figured it was a safe bet. It turned out to be one of those under ...more | |

I don’t remember ever reading Stoner by John Williams back in high school, which surprised me once I saw how highly regarded has been over the decades. So I picked it up out of curiosity—and I’m glad I did. The story seems uncomplicated on the surface ...more |
