The Newlyweds: A Novel
by Nell Freudenberger
Bangladesh vs. Rochester, NY (6/20/2012)
This novel is very well written: a fascinating look at internet romance and culture clash/immigration issues. I was pleasantly surprised by its depth and substance.

I was anxious to read it because it is set in Rochester, NY where I have lived for the last 30 years. Onemore
Canada
by Richard Ford
Borders (6/19/2012)
The book is not really about Canada (half of it takes place in Montana) but about borders and a lack of borders...and how a single event that one has no control over can catapult an ordinary life into chaos in the blink of an eye...I was hooked...I love Richard Ford's writing!
