Lonesome Dove (Lonesome Dove, #1)
Larry McMurtry
Two aging Texas Rangers drive cattle to Montana, and somehow it's 900 pages I never wanted to end. Funny, brutal, and completely alive.

Pet: A Novel
Catherine Chidgey
A creepy, slow-tightening novel narrated by a girl obsessed with her charismatic teacher. Chidgey is so controlled it's unnerving.
★ 5A Long Way from Chicago (A Long Way from Chicago, #1)
Richard Peck
A boy and his sister spend summers with their larger-than-life Grandma Dowdel in small-town Illinois. So funny.
