I’ve enjoyed all the books in this series with my daughter. It’s been such a great experience with lots of bonding.
In A Sunburned Country by Bill Bryson
Since travel is off-limits, travel books have been great.
The Lost City of the Monkey God by Douglas J. Preston
I heard about this book from one of the Offbeat member’s top picks from last year. Loved it!
The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo
I got wrapped up in this story and could not put it down. Scenes of a fading starlett were done very well.
American Dirt by Jeanine Cummins
Just a fabulous read. Sounds like people either love or hate it, but I loved it.
The Stationery Shop by Marjan Kamil
Didn’t do as much reading I normally do but this move was a very memorable read.
Just loved it. Simply put.
The Water Cure by Sophie Mackintosh
Desperately needed to talk to people about it this book after reading it.
I got this book as a gift from the book club and absolutely loved it.
The Trip to Echo Springs by Olivia Laing
Part memoir, part travelogue, this is just and an honest and artfully written book on the connection between alcohol and the relationships of some of literature’s memorable names.
