I’ve been on a damn good reading run. As usual, I’ve read a bunch of books that will come out later in the year, but, in the interest of conversation, I’ll not mention them here.
I’m working my way through The New Yorker‘s collection of short stories from the past century–I’m up to 1995. Thus far my favorites (that I hadn’t read before) have been A Summer’s Reading by Bernard Malamud and Nadine Gordimer’s City Lovers.
For romance, I enjoyed Julianna Keyes’ All The Missing Pieces and Elliot Fletcher’s Scotch on the Rocks, which, if you read my reviews, you already know.
I’m currently reading, and having a hard time putting down, Wild Dark Shore by Charlotte McConaghy. It’s a book with multiple narrators, none of whom are telling the whole story, and the sense of foreboding is intense. Thus, far, I’m loving it.
How about you? What have you read recently that you loved? Disliked? Think EVERYONE should read? Let us know in the comments!
