Book tastes
I prefer well written books with a strong sense of place and well developed characters. I gravitate towards historical fiction and enjoy books with unusual narrative techniques or anything told in an original way.
Don't get this!
Romance, biography/memoir or mass market fiction.
Other notes
Some recent favorites have been Winesburg, Ohio, When We Cease to Understand the World, Cloud Cuckoo Land, Middlemarch and The Goldfinch.

Several suggestions: Sarah Waters' "The Little Stranger," Sarah Perry's "The Essex Serpent," Louise Erdrich's "The Master Butchers Singing Club," Michel Faber's "The Book of Strange New Things." All excellent. (Nov 25, 2023, 7:13pm)
