Nominations will end on August 15th. Thank you!

Kate Hardy by D.E. Stevenson.

Sara, I read that earlier this year and really enjoyed it!

In the Furrowed Middlebrow vein, I’ll nominate a personal favorite, Near Neighbours by Molly Clavering.

I nominate Family Ties by Clarice Lispector and

Abigail by Magda Szabó

I nominate Feet in Chains by Kate Roberts, first published in Welsh in 1936.
