Nonfiction: Helen Macdonald’s “H Is for Hawk” is one that you might like, with lots of sharp and well-crafted description of the natural world.
In fiction, Anthony Doerr’s “All the Light We Cannot See” might well be worth all the hype and attention that it continues to receive.
From CH:Grandma Gatewood’s Walk. Nonfiction about a 67 year old who decided to walk the Appalachian Trail. I loved it.
The Invention of Wings by Sue Monk Kidd. Fiction but based on many true stories
The Aviator’s Wife. Nonfiction about Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Dead Wake. Nonfiction by Eric Larsen, sinking of the Lusitania
Nice list! Thanks. BTW, I'm currently reading "Why Read Moby Dick", with the goal of ......being spurred to read Moby Dick! I think it's working.
