North Woods

North Woods by Daniel Mason NATIONAL BESTSELLER • A NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW TOP TEN BOOK OF THE YEAR A WASHINGTON POST TOP TEN BOOK OF THE YEAR • FINALIST FOR THE NATIONAL BOOK CRITICS CIRCLE AWARD A sweeping novel about a single house in the woods of New England, told through the lives of those who inhabit it across the ... I enjoyed this book a lot. The episodes are interesting, the writing is superb and it reminds me of David Mitchell’s Cloud Atlas. It has a little sad, nostalgic undertone coming from the long window of time spanning the episodes in the book. People come into the scope of the house and then disappear again. The permanence of the location is in sharp contrast to the transient existence of the house inhabitants. Some episodes end so abruptly they leave you yearning for more (probably and cleverly intentional). ...

James McBride completely hooked me with Deacon King Kong and he did it again with The Heaven and Earth Grocery Store. His characters are so compelling, they stay with you long after you finish his books. Their stories feel like old family stories. His dialog is superb, and often very funny. And he rips out your heart with some devastatingly beautiful scenes in both books (Dodo and Monkey Pants in The Heaven and Earth Grocery Store, Sportcoat and Hettie in Deacon King Kong). Easily one of my favorite writers. ...

Deadloch

I recently needed a distraction for a ten-hour flight. I cannot sleep on flights and I’m also too uncomfortable to do any real work or read. So it has to be binging a show. I chose Deadloch, a murder mystery show with eight one hour episodes, making it the ideal length for a ten hour flight assuming it is compelling enough to stick around. ...
