The Burgess Boys

Melody Izard

As near perfect as a book can be. I ought to say more about this book because I loved it so much. The story was exceptional - but, as with Olive Kitteridge, Strout's novels are much more than the story. It deals with prejudices, human flaws, family, small towns and more. Loved it.

Michael Hessling

Ah, it ended nicely. I was hating everyone, except maybe Ms. Drinkwater, but everything tied up swell. I love that in a book.
