As the world and the Storey Book Club navigates through COVID-19, below are book suggestions. We look forward to meeting in person but please keep on reading. Let me know of any good reads, new authors you have discovered and enjoyed, or just keep in touch. As we develop a new mode for Storey Book Club, be safe and be well.

News of the World by Paulette Jiles

A Gentlemen in Moscow by Amor Towles

Both books were recommended by my former sixth grade teacher from Our Lady Help of Christians School, who is not only the best teacher ever, but our close family friend, loved by the Storeys from Chicago to Kansas. From the author’s writing style to the characters’ journey toward a lifetime bond, this book is captivating. Likewise, I could not put down A Gentlemen in Moscow. I read it twice, and I then read Rules of Civility, also by Amor Towles. Thanks for the recommendations. I hope you enjoy these books as much as I did.

The Long Way Home by Louise Penny

A continuation of her Inspector Armand Garmache series with its wonderful characters. This one focuses primarily on Clara. I’m always ready for a new Garmache book so if you like this, they are more.

Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine by Gail Honeyman

In her debut novel, Gail Honeyman, lovingly shares a compelling story about Eleanor. She is so human and dynamic, you won’t forget Eleanor Oliphant. Eleanor’s story brought tears and made me laugh out loud. Don’t miss this one.
