Did you love Curtis Sittenfeld's PREP? This is the book for you! Fantastic use of multiple voices and set in an all girls boarding school after an alleged affair between a teacher and a former student. I read it in two days!

Kathleen's Top 3 Books

In 2020, my Top 3 Books took me away from it all.

I found refuge and joy in The Lost and Found Bookshop by Susan Wiggs: a beautiful story that parallels my own journey to owning a bookstore. GGP was delighted to host Susan in an online discussion that you can view on GGP's YouTube channel here.

Ghosts of Harvard by Francesca Serritella was a perfect combination of family saga, psychological thriller, and mystery that kept me up all night reading. Catch up with our online chat with Francesca on YouTube here.

The Sweeney Sisters by Lian Dolan rounds out my Top 3. This story of Irish-American sisters in New England reminded me of growing up with my sisters.

It was so hard to cut my list of books down to three, but now you have it! I hope you'll share your list with us on GGP's survey.
