If you go to the Reading Room you will find some great recent book suggestions.
I really liked both Weather and The Night Watchman. Both are recent novels.
I am nearly finished reading Just Mercy. While this is classified as a biography (autobiography really), it reads like a novel.
Exactly what Joan said about Just Mercy - excellent and very readable. (And important!)
The movie is very good also.
I didn’t realize there was another thread that’s active. I’ll check that out. Read Just Mercy. So powerful and horrifying.
I just finished Deacon King Kong by James McBride and I liked it a lot.
I know there’s a long one someone but I thought I’d start a new one. What have you read lately that was great? Looking for a well written novel with a plot I can get my teeth into. Loved The Son. Bel Canto. Story of Ove. Gone Girl. The Art of Fielding.
Suggestions?
