The Sparrow: simply the most fascinating book I've ever read. The most intricate character development, grappling with the big questions of life on earth (and beyond!). A lesson in good intentions gone wrong. Makes you think!

I loved the Tortilla Curtain. I think it has the most perfect ending of any novel I've read.

I recommend The Robber Bride, one of the most engrossing books that I've ever read. I couldn't wait to see what deviltry the main character would perform next. I think the villainess in this book is the BEST!
