"I'm glad my Mom died" Holy crap. I remember seeing that girl on iCarly back in the day. Obviously had no idea she had a monster for a Mom. I might have to check that one out. Thanks Yuezhong! I'm subscribing! I love getting introduced to some new books to check out.

Thank you!

This book shook my world a little bit, to be honest. It was very intense but also very well written. If you do end up reading it, I'd be curious to hear your thoughts!

This is a fantastic list, and just the kind of recommendation I was looking for. Thank you.

I'm really trying to read more books this year and so I'm really keen on this list of yours! This is the second recommendation I've seen today for Tomb Sweeping. In Love might just have to go on my reading list too, though that really hits home. Thank you for this.

You can get a preview In Love here: https://www.thisamericanlife.org/779/ends-of-the-earth

This American Life ran an episode where Amy Bloom narrates a condensed version of the story, but it's very similar to the audio book version I listened to.
