Headed on an awesome vacation with a 10 hour flight and I need a nice chunky book that is character driven to lose myself in. My favorite book of the near past is A Little Life by Hanya Yanighara or House of Sand and Fog by Andre Dubus III. I have a MA degree in literature (2021) so I’ve read all of the university oriented stuff and I leaned toward transnational so Booker list was always my go to. Looking for something nice and chunky with strong characters like A Little Life (the alternative lifestyles aren’t a plus or minus for me), that book just tore me apart in its writing and character strength. Any recommendations are appreciated!
