  • Demon Copperhead by Barbara Kingsolver

    I haven’t read David Copperfield (but I have read a bunch of Dickens), and this is the first of Kingsolver’s for me. But! This book was dull. The first 200 pages were absolutely riveting.

  • White Teeth by Zadie Smith

    This was impossible to put down. The characters leap off the page, the writing is filled with energy and charm. Loved it.
