[Christina]

Great list James! I'm adding all of these to my TBR list!

[James]

The Year 1000 is a dry read, if you're not into that specific time period in England. But otherwise, it's got a lot of interesting bits.

[Christina]

Hmmm....I'll keep that in mind.

[Michelle]

Beartown After reading this and "A Man Called Ove" I now what to read all of Backman's books. Sometimes I feel like he's playing my emotions like a fiddle, but I just don't care.

Stay with Me Superb audio performance.

Mystic River Third time reading this example of sheer perfection. Planning on reading it every year.

[Christina]

I'm adding Beartown and Mystic River to my TBR list. Ive had my eye on Stay With Me for a minute....I've heard only good things.
