I'm adding this book to my favorite books shortlist.
It's a story about a lighthouse keeper and his wife who has suffered numerous miscarriages and stillbirths when one day a boat with a dead man and his infant daughter wash ashore.
The couple is faced with the dilemma of what to do with the infant and the book explores the couple's decision and how their decision affects numerous people.
After I recommended Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn to you, I proceeded to read the other two books that the author has written. I was not disappointed!
It's the story of a young attorney tired of the long hours and stress of a large law firm. After leaving his career, he finds himself working for some ambulance chasers and comes into his own as a lawyer. It's a fascinating story that will keep you on your toes.
is the story of 17-year-old Lily, whose mother is a single mom and principal of the High School. Lily and several of her friends have made a pregnancy pact and her decision affects not only Lily but the whole community.
I read Heaven is for Real and I just fell in love with the book! I'm reading one now along the same story line (the title has slipped my mind! argh!) - but it's by a neurosurgeon who experiences a NDE. He was a non believer before he had this experience. Up next on my list is The Talented Mr. Ripley. Thanks for these book suggestions - I think I will put them all on my list!
I have BOTH the Gillian Flynn novels on hold in my digital library..after reading Gone Girl in one night I'm sure they won't disappoint! Great books on this list..thanks for sharing!
