Great list, Gary! I knew it was right to ask you. I'm especially curious about the ones I hadn't heard much about: Burger's Daughter, The Yellow Wallpaper, The Light Between Oceans, Tell the Wolves I'm Home, and The Reluctant Fundamentalist. And, of course, I know there's plenty more Jane Austen to read, too. Thanks for responding!

I left off things I thought you'd already read. I'm reading something by Atkinson which takes us back to the family from Life After Life from Teddy's perspective. She is so clever and not afraid to experiment.
That's quite a coincidence with Atkinson as it turns out. There was a time a week or so ago when both Susan and Julia were reading separate books of hers -- with Julia's being the one you mentioned about Teddy. I followed suit and have now started Behind the Scenes at the Museum, her first. So far, so great.Thanks again for taking the time, Gary. It pays to have such good bookworms as friends, I've found. :-)
