Life After Life by Kate Atkinson (an incredible concept handled by a master writer)
Me Before You by Jojo Moyes (one of my all-time favorites — a big surprise as I thought I wouldn’t take to it)
The Light in the Ruins by Chris Bojahlian (one of his best — about Italy during WW2, which most of us know nothing about)
The Goldfinch by Donna Tartt (Dickensian in scope and length and brilliance — may need extra time for a club to read)
and I’m in the middle of Frog Music by Emma Donaghue, who wrote Room. She’s a fabulous storyteller, as those of you who read Room know, and this new one is every bit as good a story. At first, I didn’t think it would make a very good book club discussion, but it’s getting a lot more involved and I’m beginning to think it would. Stay tuned…
