The Island of Sea Women by Lisa See
This is the perfect novel. It's multi-layered, riveting and taught me so much about Korea, Jeju Island, and haenyeo.
Rating: 5/5
No Exit by Taylor Adams
If you're looking for a book that will pull you in during the first couple of chapters and not let you go until the very end, then read this book. It makes for a great escape. Just turn off the analytical parts of your brain and read it for what it is.
Rating: 3/5
Lock In by John Scalzi
Part science-fiction, part police procedural, 100% page-turning fun.
Rating: 3/5
The Child in Time by Ian McEwan
A very deliberate and purposeful book, written to help us think about the beauty of childhood.
