About The Whistler · John Grisham
Ruth Ware, 2016
Also serenity and unease. A travel journalist on a luxury cruise sees a woman go overboard—but no one believes her, and no passenger is missing.
Was this what it was going to be like? Was I turning into someone who had panic attacks about walking home from the tube or staying the night alone in the house without their boyfriend?No, fuck that. I would not be that person. Nicholas Sparks, 1996
Also love and tenderness. An old man's devotion to the woman he loves, told in plain, unguarded prose for anyone who has ever measured a life by whom they loved.
I am nothing special; of this I am sure. I am a common man with common thoughts, and I’ve led a common life. There are no monuments dedicated to me and my name will soon be forgotten, but I’ve loved another with all my heart and soul, and to me, this has always been enough. Matt Haig, 2020
Also love and memory. A library between life and death, where every book on the shelf is one of the lives Nora could have chosen and didn't.
It was hard not to compare Mrs Elm to her mother, who treated Nora like a mistake in need of correction. For instance, when she was a baby her mother had been so worried Nora’s left ear stuck out more than her right that she’d used sticky tape to address the situation, then disguised it beneath a woollen bonnet. Laurie Gilmore, 2024
Also tenderness and love. A small-town bookshop romance about a woman who loves her quiet life and the man who makes her wonder if she wants more.
It was a slow day, bright and sunny, the type of day people wanted to be running around outside, not browsing the shelves of a bookstore. Not that Hazel understood that line of reasoning. She always wanted to be browsing the shelves of a bookstore. Gregory Maguire, 1995
Also unease and power. The Wicked Witch of the West gets a childhood, a family, a cause and a conscience. Oz retold from the other side, thick with politics, desire and moral fog.
The truth isn’t a thing of fact, or reason. It’s simply what everyone agrees on. H.D. Carlton, 2021
Also love and power. A writer moves into her great-grandmother's haunted manor and attracts a stalker who knows the house—and her—better than she does.
What you’re seeing now is what I see every day. No matter how far I run, how hard I try to escape you—you’re everywhere I go. You’re everything I see. Loving you is like being trapped in a house of mirrors, little mouse. And I’ve never felt so at home while being so lost inside you. John le Carré, 1979
Also tenderness and memory. A retired spymaster is pulled back into the trade he was told to leave, where old loyalties and old betrayals wear the same grey coat.
Leigh Bardugo, 2015
Also power and love. A crew of teenage outcasts takes on an impossible heist in a city of canals, bribes and betrayals.
Colleen Hoover, 2016
Also love and tenderness. A Boston florist falls for a neurosurgeon, then meets the first boy she loved—and must reckon with what she owes her own history.
Wally Lamb, 1992
Also tenderness and memory. A lonely Connecticut girl grows up amid family secrets, television dreams and bottomless wanting, narrating her life with raw, comic honesty.
John Marrs, 2016
Also serenity and unease. A DNA test claims to find your perfect partner. The people who take it discover that certainty can wreck a life.
Ana Huang, 2023
Also love and power. A controlled heir and a spontaneous writer collide in a romance about pride, class, and being seen.
