[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I love book threads too. OP, one thing I do is look up a book I like on amazon.com and then look at "readers also bought" to see what other books are similar. They also have those scrolling recommendations with similar books. I second a lot of other PP recs, like Station Eleven, Life after Life, Anne Tyler, Prayer for Owen Meany. Also try Nora Webster (Irish, no violence); Longbourn (servants in Jane Austen novel); Olive Kitteredge; The Help; American Wife (Curtis Sittenfeld); Stone Diaries; Storied life of AJ Fikry; For a laugh try Sandra Loh's "Madwoman in the Volvo: My year of raging hormones." [/quote] I loved Station Eleven, Longbourn, and American Wife. Some others to try: Brooklyn Foreign Affairs (Alison Lurie) Plainsong Nobody's Fool The Rosie Project Three Junes Atonement Crossing to Safety China Court (if you can find it; it's out of print) [/quote]
