Favorite Books
When the author does not shy away from tough subjects, but leaves an opening to see humanity in a distinct and profound way; when a story is surprising, emotionally complex and compelling; when the depth of the story reiterates a vast and intelligently creative writer; when a book broadens my perspective and my perception of reality is forever changed; and when I can't stop telling people about it...
it's one of my favorites.
