[quote=Anonymous]Ah, Bel Canto (Ann Patchett). Yes, yes. Love that book and highly recommend it. I also love love love The Poisonwood Bible (Barbara Kingsolver). I think it would be ok based on OP's list of "no"s. Prodigal Summer is also good, and I also really enjoyed The Lacuna. John Irving books: there are many good ones, though I enjoy the older ones more than his recent novels. A Prayer for Owen Meany, The Hotel New Hampshire, The Cider House Rules. A Widow for One Year is on the newer side, but may be my favorite of his books. Straight Man by Richard Russo is excellent. I also liked Empire Falls, Bridge of Sighs, and Nobody's Fool. A Thousand Acres by Jane Smiley is an old favorite. Everything is Illuminated by Jonathan Safran Foer.[/quote]
