Looking back through my Kindle list, these are the books I read and liked this year. I have a bad memory for books, if I liked them or not, so I set up a collection where I list the books I loved.
So Much for That by Lionel Shriver - captivating story about a man who wants to escape from the regular working life
Commonwealth by Ann Patchett - great family novel
The Mandibles by Lionel Shriver - sci-fi but not far from a reality that could happen of the way of life collapsing in the US
Wild by Cheryl Strayed - I loved the description of this 1000 mile walk on the Pacific Rim Trail, starting in California and going to the Oregon/Washington border.
Picnic in Provence by Elizabeth Bard - I enjoyed this memoir of life in a small town in Provence.
The Harder They Come by T.C. Boyle - Northern California, modern day story.
My Name is Lucy Barton by Elizabeth Strout - A mother and daughter story which was not the least bit sappy.
I reread Brideshead Revisited - still fabulous.
---------------------------
I read His Bloody Project by Graeme MaCrae Burnet and it was a good read but not one of my favorites. Same with Hot Milk by Deborah Levy (I hardly remember the plot) and Girls by Emma Cline (retelling of the Charlie Manson story).
