Clock Dance: A novel by Anne Tyler
“Anne Tyler is one of this country’s great artists . . . She has lost none of the inspired grace of her prose, nor her sad, frank humor, nor her limitless sympathy for women who ask for little and get less . . . Beautiful, understated, humane.”
Bring Me Back: A Novel by B. A. Paris
“[Paris] builds a nice plot and brings some originality to the old ‘good sister, bad sister’ character dynamic.”
The Last Time I Lied: A Novel by Riley Sager
“The author delivers the kind of unpredictable conclusion that all thriller readers crave—utterly shocking yet craftily foreshadowed.”
My Year of Rest and Relaxation by Ottessa Moshfegh
“My Year of Rest and Relaxation is a strange, exhilarating triumph . . . Moshfegh writes with a singular wit and clarity that, on its own, would be more than enough. (Her 2015 debut, Eileen, was shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize, and Rest has already been optioned for film by Australian actress Margot Robbie). But the cumulative power of her narrative—and the sharp turn she takes in its last 30 pages—becomes nothing less than a revelation: sad, funny, astonishing, and unforgettable.”
