Killers of the Flower Moon reads like a mystery but is a true story. I read it a few months ago and would highly recommend it. I thought it was thoroughly researched and beautifully written and all in all an excellent book.

I have only read Bear Town, but I see some on the list that I will look in to. They sound interesting. I'm always looking for authors I haven't read as I read alot - way too much!

I haven’t read nary a one. I’m always looking for good reads. I’ve heard a lot of praise for Beartown though. I may read that one. 😊

@lolakimono, just saw your post.

No secret, I read Frederik Backman's "Beartown" and loved it. There's a sequel coming out in June, it's called "Us Against You."

I buy my books and am overloaded with them now. I very much want to read "Killers of the Flower Moon," I have heard it's a must-read. I'm hoping by the time I get to it, it will be out in paperback!

Mohsin Hamid's book I will also read; I loved his "The Reluctant Fundamentalist."

I read "The Dry" by Jane Harper. Excellent mystery set in Australia. It's the first in a new series. Her writing definitely drew me in... I've never been to Australia, but I feel like I took a trip there while reading. One of my favorite books of 2017.

I haven't read any of these but did get the list from Amazon. Little Fires Everywhere sounds good to me.

I have added Killers of The Flower Moon to my ever growing list of books to read since starting to pay attention to the Book Club forum.

I read Exit West, loved it. I also read The Dry by Jane Harper, loved, loved it.

I attempted to read Lincoln on the Bardo twice & didn't get far, so I gave up.

@lolakimono, thanks for posting this. I will check into the ones I haven't read.

I am in the minority on Killers of the Flower Moon. While I appreciated some of the historical context and details of the book, I thought it was very disjointed. Not a book I would recommend for reason. LM
