Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine – Gail Honeyman A Man Called Ove -Frederik Backman The Clockmaker’s Daughter – Kate Morton Once Upon A River – Diane Setterfield
@Julie some of the ones we have done in my BC over the last few years … Where The Crawdads Sing, The Alice Network, Lilac Girls, The Nightingale, One Day in December, My Not So Perfect Life, The Hate U Give, The Handmaids Tale, When Breathe Becomes Air, All We Ever Wanted, Crazy Rich Asians, Night Road, Love, Hate, & Other Filters, Everything we Keep, and more but this is some at least. I’d also suggest Next Year in Havana (favorite so far of 2019), The Best of Me, This is Where I Leave you, Where Rainbows End (Love Rosie).
Books that I would have loved to read along with others so I had someone to discuss it with were: The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo, by Taylor Jenkins Reid The Marriage Lie, by Kimberly Belle The Stolen Marriage, by Diane Chamberlain
Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine. Best one ever. Also books by Charles Martin (especially Where the River Ends). Anything by Kate Morton – but they are long. Lilac Girls. Crawdads. The Great Alone by Kristin Hannah.
Mildred In Disguise, With Diamonds Mildred expected a comfortable retirement. But when her husband died, his secrets changed everything. She doesn’t have the luxury of a graceful old age, she takes the job the casino offers-undercover security. http://books2read.com/u/mVBwDP https://www.amazon.com/dp/154495669X/
May I suggest my all-time favorite author, Barbara Pym. EXCELLENT WOMEN is her most read book. She is one of Alexander McCall Smith’s favorite authors.

Once Broken, DM Hamblin. Story of a single mom from 1970s through 2010. Nostalgic, heart warming and funny.
