Working in the publishing industry means that people like to talk to me about books. I, of course, like to talk about books so this is never really a problem. But this summer I have been stumped twice when asked about good novels. I’ve been reading a lot of nonfiction lately and I suppose I haven’t been paying attention to what good novels people are reading this summer.
If you’ve got a good novel on the go, let me know what it is.
Here’s the list of what I’ve recommended so far:
Kids
Beverly Billingsly Borrows a Book
Bruce Hale’s Chet Gecko series
Terry Griggs’ Cat’s Eye Corner trilogy
Fiction for Adults
The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time
The Time Traveler’s Wife
The Time in Between
Daniel Isn’t Talking
Here’s the novel I started today. So far I think it is going to be a very good book.
The Garneau Block by Todd Babiak
