By Anthony Doerr is what I just finished for this category.

No problem! I'll fix it.

That one is on my to-read list!

This is on my to read list as well.

I am reading this now. Great book- although sometimes I need to go back and check what year the section of the book is in.

Finished it!

How did you like it?

I really enjoyed it. The way the author wrote the book, taking turns with each character and having them lead basically parallel lives worked well.

This was on my to-read list for a while, and I really enjoyed it. I love the style of writing (it was written in third-person, but was narrated). I'm sure there is literature term for that style of writing, but I'm not sure what it is. The book progressed in a way that was engaging. Also full of beautiful imagery and thought-provoking experiences for the main characters. A great pick for this category.

I actually ended up switching this one over to the Pulitzer Prize category after it won! On the lookout for another 500+ page book.

I read this last month. It is one of my favorite reads for the year. The atmosphere of the book is amazing. Brilliant book.

I am reading this now for a group read in my book club, and doubling as my Pulitzer Prize book. So far I am in love with this book.

Just finished this book for this category as well. Really enjoyed this book. And although over 500 pages it was a real page turner
