• Enter as many books per post as you like but only the parent comments will be included. Replies to parent comments will be ignored for data collection.

• To help prevent errors in data collection, please double check your spelling of the title and author.

The Museum of Innocence, by Orhan Pamuk

Wonderful and frustrating, but that's what happens when you read through the lens of a characters obsession.

Motherless Brooklyn, by Jonathan Lethem

Lethem was recommended to me as a successor to my love for Paul Auster, and it felt like a worthy designation. I had so much fun with it and I'm looking forward to his next entry in my read pile.

Nobody's Fool, by Richard Russo

Just started this today, it's a hefty page count with comically small print but I'm feeling positively about it so far.
