Tell Me Everything.
By Pulitzer Prize winning author Elizabeth Strout. How much did I love this book? A lot! An honest depiction of real life, relationships, love, hate, good, and evil. The writing is both impeccable and down to earth. No problem if you haven't read Strout’s previous work, you can jump right in. Review Sandra Novick.

After Annie.
Pulitzer Prize winning author Anna Quindlen’s latest novel, After Annie, does not disappoint. Beautifully written, it is the story of a family struggling with their grief upon losing Annie—mother, wife, care giver, friend. It is a great read, and despite all, it leaves one feeling hopeful. Review Sandra Novick.
