I have been reading though:
The Obituary Society by Jessica L. Randall
Lila Moore inherits her grandfather's house and returns to the small town where it is located to settle the affairs. Lila is charmed by the town's inhabitants and their quirky ways, but the longer she stays, weirder and weirder things start happening. It was cute.
Wild Game by Andrienne Brodeur
Based on true events, a young teen's life is altered when her mother shares about her extramarital affair. It was interesting.
Monsoon Mansion by Cinelle Barnes
An autobiography, Barnes tells of her dysfunctional upbringing in the 1980-2000s Philippines. From wealth to poverty, back to financial security, Barnes' story is ultimately a hopeful one, despite the hardships that she faced in a modern world. It was good.
Olive Kitterage and Olive, Again by Elizabeth Strout
Each chapter in the book tells the story of a different inhabitant of a small New England town, who are all, in some way, connected to Olive. In the first book, we meet quirky Olive and learn more about her through each character's perception. The second book comprises the rest of the story. Both were very good.
Need to Know by Karen Cleveland
What would you do if you are a counterintelligence analyst and you find out that your husband is a Russian spy? Read this gripping book to find out what Vivian did. It was good.
Big Lies in a Small Town by Diane Chamberlain
This book is the best I've read since Where the Crawdads Sing. Morgan Christopher is serving time for a crime she didn't commit. One day, she is offered the job of restoring an old post office mural in exchange for her freedom. Although Morgan had been working on an art degree prior to her incarceration, she knows nothing about art restoration, but she gives it a go. I loved this book from start to finish. It was so good.
That's it for now.
MK out.
