Providing a cozier fantasy experience that’s both familiar and distinct, Hines’s latest is recommended for fans of Avatar: The Last Airbender and Tomi Adeyemi’s Children of Blood and Bone.
Kirkpatrick (Beneath the Bending Skies) writes of Western expansion with an eye for people whom history books often forget. There are no 21st-century anachronisms in this tale based on a real-life couple. Readers who like to see the day-to-day unfolding slowly in unexpected ways, as in the work of Sandra Dallas and Tracie Peterson, will enjoy.
Brunsvold writes utterly realistic modern characters searching for connection and meaning. Literary fans will enjoy the plethora of references to authors with Midwest connections, from Langston Hughes to Laura Ingalls Wilder to Flannery O’Connor.
Multigenerational characters are well-represented with humor and zest, giving this novel broad appeal. Readers will be eager to travel vicariously in the next installment of Fisher’s new series, but Karen Barnett’s “Vintage National Parks” novels will satisfy until then.
Readers who enjoy nuanced French Resistance stories such as Sarah Sundin’s Until Leaves Fall in Paris and Pam Jenoff’s The Lost Girls of Paris will appreciate this novel and root for victory for its motley crew of ordinary people who become heroes during a terrible time in history.
Green (The Foxhole Victory Tour) expertly captures the complicated bonds between mother and daughter while writing a cracking spy adventure. Those who enjoyed Katherine Reay’s The Berlin Letters will be thrilled.
This work is a tremendous achievement: more literary and ambitious than Walter’s previous popular books, with an urgency that may make it one of the strongest realist but dystopian novels of the present era.
This is the book Trigiani’s fans have been waiting for. Her hallmark charm and love of family, along with a touch of romance, make for a captivating and memorable read. Recommend to those who enjoy the work of Dorothea Benton Frank, Lisa Scottoline, or Kristy Woodson Harvey.
