The Circle by Dave Eggers
Anything by Ann Patchett The Lowlands by Jhumpa Lahiri The Orphan Master's Son by Adam Johnson (one of the best novels I have read the past few years) Never Let me Go by Kazuo Ishiguro Let the Great World Spin by Colum McCann |

| If you like The Glass Castle/Jeannette Walls, have you read any of Mary Karr's memoirs? I enjoyed Glass Castle and Half Broke Horses but I like Mary Karr even more: The Liar's Club, Cherry, and Lit. |

I also love A Thousand Acres, but my favorite Jane Smiley book is Moo.

The Goldfinch is quite a tome but great.
Since you like non-fiction too: Brain on Fire Shakespeare saved my life: 10 Years in Solitary with the Bard Zeitoun Five Days at Memorial |
