Harper C.: Five Book Friday: Uncanny Graphic Novels (0 comment)

We are in the thick of winter here in the Pacific Northwest, which means it's dark, damp, and chilly. Rather than escaping to stories with warmer, brighter climates, I personally want nothing more than to dive deep into gothic and uncanny fiction as the wind rattles my windows at night...

Tiny Beautiful Things: Advice On Love & Life from Dear Sugar by Cheryl Strayed
	Lynn Cox, January 01, 2013 Cheryl Strayed has a way with prose. Much more than an advice column, this collection is more like lovely, tender essays. Reading this book made me want to be gentler with people, to be tender and caring about our shared human condition.

Ahabs Wife or the Star Gazer by Sena Jeter Naslund
	Lynn Cox, January 02, 2010 Ahab's Wife is one of those rare books that makes one regret having finished reading it. It's not that the ending disappoints -- not at all! It's that the sheer pleasure of reading such a well-written, engrossing saga has ended. I wanted the book to go on and on. A masterpiece.

Pigs In Heaven by Barbara Kingsolver
	Lynn Cox, November 30, 2006 What a great read! This is one of Kingsolver's earlier works, but it still has the complex characters and culture clashes for which she's well known. This one's not quite as "heavy" as The Poisonwood Bible, but it's equally as satisfying and enlightening. Pigs in Heaven made me wonder about some of my own deeply imbedded cultural imperatives.
