I adored The Storyteller. I was a little apprehensive before reading it because I’d burned myself out on Jodi Piocult novels. But I just… it made me cry and my heart feel a little too big for my chest. Glad you enjoyed reading it so much that it ended up on your list for this week!
I can definitely relate to burning out on Jodi Picoult books. I’d read a bunch of her earlier books, and then just couldn’t any more… until The Storyteller, which I thought was chilling and marvelous and so moving. Thanks for stopping by!
Awesome list. I read Storyteller a couple of years ago and loved it. I really want to read the Cat Winters book. I love her! Here is my top ten list: http://bookbinges.blogspot.it/2016/06/top-ten-tuesday-favorite-2016-releases.html
Cat Winters is so amazing! I’ve loved every one of her books, and can’t wait for her new one to come out in the fall.
I haven’t read the Storyteller yet as I was worried it wouldn’t live up to the hype. So glad you liked it. My TTT
It was really powerful — highly recommended!
Great list, Lisa! I’m hoping to cross Every Heart a Doorway off my TBR soon, so I’m glad to hear you liked it. 🙂
I loved it! I gobbled it up (it’s a quick read), but I plan to listen to the audiobook in the next couple of months to take it at a slower pace and enjoy the language and imagery. 🙂
I loved The Storyteller so much!! I think Picoult’s books have been getting better and better lately! I cannot wait to read her new one later this year!
I’m really excited for her new one too!
I’ve heard great things about The Steep & Thorny Way by Cat Winters! Great list!
She’s such a great writer! If you haven’t tried anything of hers yet, I recommend them all. 🙂
Cool, thanks for the recommendation!
You’ve read some very interesting books this year! I do like Jodi Picoult’s writing!
I do too — I’m looking forward to her new book coming out this summer!
Yes to The Steep & Thorny Way. I actually think it might be my favorite Cat Winters novel. Great list!
Thanks! I have a hard time picking my favorite Cat Winters — they’re all so good!
The Fireman is the only one I have also read and it made my list too! The Steep & Thorny Way is still sitting in my review pile and I seriously have no idea why. lol Great list!
