The Wedding People
Alison Espach
A woman checks into a grand hotel at her lowest and gets pulled into a stranger's over-the-top wedding. Warmer and funnier than that sounds.
★ 5Happy All the Time
Laurie Colwin
Colwin writing about happy people in love, which sounds boring and is somehow the opposite. Warm, witty, and completely charming.
Erasure
Percival Everett
A Black novelist, sick of what publishing wants from him, writes a cynical parody that becomes a smash. Furious and very funny. The basis for American Fiction.
