[Milena]

A Confederacy of Dunces is a good one for sloth. Possibly gluttony also.

[Cathal]

A Confederacy of Dunces is a great book

The Spider King's Daughter by Nigerian author Chibundu Onuzo is a romance with elements of suspense and political intrigue.

The book is on the list of 50 Books by African Woman that Everyone Should Read. ⭐⭐⭐⭐ here is my review

So far I've read: lust Breaking Free by Rachel Jeffs
envy Rainbow Valley by L M Montgomery
..."

A Confederacy of Dunces has both gluttony and slothfulness but if you want to read through all of them I'd use this for sloth. It is a hilariously entertaining book

[Denise]

I read Dante's inferno in February for a classics book club--covers all 7 sins.

[GailW]

Under "Pride", I read Miss Pym Disposes by Josephine Tey. The author wrote a mystery that reads more like a fiction, the mystery isn't introduced until the 75% mark in the book. However, the various aspects of pride occur often in the character and storyline development. The last part is the damage that this pride can produce.

[Katrina]

Pride and Prejudice 🌟🌟🌟

I think it does. it involves murder, lies, deciet, lust, blackmail....
That could be murder, lust, wrath and more. i do not want to give any secrets away

[Belinda]

“In Cold Blood” by Truman Capote
Involves envy, greed and wrath. Overall it was a good read. IMO it went into some details that I didn’t feel were necessary. “In Cold Blood is regarded by critics as a pioneering work in the true-crime genre”. It was one of the first non-fiction works of its kind.

American Cult by Robyn Chapman

I read The Luminaries by Eleanor Catton -- splendid historical novel set in the 1860s New Zealand gold rush, and driven by avarice.

[Rachel]

Fish Soup by Colombian author Margarita García Robayo is a collection of gritty short stories about life, families and relationships in Colombia. ⭐⭐⭐⭐ here is my review

[Aquaria]

Mine was My Dark Vanessa by Kate Russell. V. triggering for me, because I had a teacher attempt to groom me in much the same way. I was strong enough to keep him at bay, but still... That shiver of unwelcome familiarity stayed with me all through the book.

[Sharon]

What Katy Did by Susan Coolidge - it deals with pride and sloth

[Angele]

I had a hard time with this prompt, but I felt that this book covered "wrath" quite well
The Boy by Tami Hoag

[Kim]

Strangled by LaDonna Humphrey. She is a local author to me and I've met her several times. She is working tirelessly to bring attention to the murder of Melissa Witt in Fort Smith, Arkansas, 29 years ago. She's written two books about the case (this is the second) and has produced a documentary.
