This book grabbed me from the first sentence and never let go. It takes you from rigid rule-bound,colonial Chile to the chaotic, heady days of the gold rush of California. Great historical fiction, but also a wonderful glimpse at secrets, conventions, family and matters of the heart. ]]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/73730362 to: The Senator's Wife (Hardcover) by Sue Miller
I'd forgotten how much I enjoy Sue Miller. Her writing is so subtle--she presents the elements of the story and the characters like unexpected gifts to the reader. Her stories about ordinary people making sense of their lives and their relationships really resonate with me. ]]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/74366148 Olive Kitteridge: A Novel in Stories (Hardcover) by Elizabeth Strout
