Today I'm sharing the best book I read in August.
Of the 10 books I read this month, I had one 5-star read, so that's my Best of the Bunch!
The Homecoming of Samuel Lake was a reread of a favorite, which I had nominated for one of my book clubs. I just love these characters so much. On this reread, I chose to experience the book via audio, and it was like I was watching a movie unspool before my eyes. Wingfield has managed to write a book that touches on the darkest parts of human nature — domestic violence, animal abuse, sexual assault — and make it unbelievably heartwarming and uplifting. All the members of my book club loved the book and couldn't believe they hadn't heard of it before!
