Edith Wharton’s The Glimpses of the Moon, which I reread every few years. It’s a favorite with its Venetian palazzos and cooling dips in Lake Como and Parisian sojourns and the splendid struggle of Nick and Susy between love or money.
This delightful book was recommended to me by my dear friend Maggie. It is a love story that transports you to some beautiful places, which is welcome right now, and it also explores what the true riches in life are. I have such fond memories of talking about this book (and all kinds of unrelated silly things) over wine and something chocolate-y at book club with my friends years ago. I miss it and them! Have you discovered any new favorite reads through a friend or book club recommendation?
