I don't typically read the werewolf/vampire books, but a trusted friend recommended this one to me, so I had to listen. I now have to step off my high and mighty "I don't read werewolf/vampire books" pedestal because not only have I read one, I also loved it. Since I'm not a reader of this genre, it's tough for me to say that this isn't your typical werewolf book, but I'm gonna say it. This isn't your typical werewolf book. It's about Jake Marlowe, the last remaining werewolf to be taken out by the World Organisation for the Control of Occult Phenomena. But after already being alive a couple hundred years, Jake just doesn't care anymore. He's the existential werewolf. What more could he possibly live for? Well, there's always something to live for, right? It's not long before Jake finds his reason. The same friend who recommended this book also gave the best description: It's like Le Carre wrote a werewolf novel. That's spot on. Even if werewolf books aren't your "thing," you should give this one a shot.

It's been so long--a book that I cannot shut up about! The Lonely Polygamist is the exact type of book that keeps me excited about reading. Brady Udall strings words together in a way that jolted me over and over again. Even in it's heaviest moments, The Lonely Polygamist manages to elevate, rather than drag the reader down. This is the book that I will be begging customers to read.

My brother gave me this book one Christmas when I was in my early teens. I took the book with me to bed that evening, a cozy evening where our house was particularly warm and quiet. I began the book and fell in love with Mr. Vonnegut in an almost reckless way. In that simple gesture of giving me this book, my brother not only strengthened our own relationship, but also opened my eyes to amazing possibilities in books.

A history professor that I highly respected made this book required reading in his courses. After I read it, I respected him even more. It's an underappreciated book, but has such a strong following with those of us who have read it. I recommend you grab a copy for yourself.

Cold, broken, war-torn Russia. Two boys are captured, one out past curfew, the other an awol soldier, and taken to the colonel for execution. Yet, in a moment of grace, the colonel decides he'll spare their lives if they do one thing: collect a dozen eggs for his daughter's wedding cake in one week's time. My heart smiled and wept as I read this book.
