Reviews

"Wood's exquisitely crafted prose radiates warmth, perception and insight, and her quartet of primary characters are simultaneously sympathetic and flawed....it is testament to Wood's empathetic storytelling that a novel replete with grief is nonetheless so heartwarming, funny and uplifting." -- The Guardian, on The One-in-a-Million Boy "This is a bittersweet page-turner that celebrates the everyday soul." -- The Sunday Times, on The One-in-a-Million Boy "This is a book of heartbreaking beauty. That an 11-year-old boy could bring together so many people of starkly contrasting interests is, in itself, amazing. But that he could bring them together in such a way as to form deep, lasting bonds is truly remarkable. Monica Wood has accomplished a feat of staggering wonder with The One-in-a-Million Boy." -- Bookreporter on The One-in-a-Million Boy "The book expands to cover an enormous amount of emotional ground, as Wood treats a large cast of fundamentally decent but struggling characters with a winning mix of sharpness and sympathy...Wood is able to convey the deepest of emotions in a few quietly devastating sentences." -- Reader's Digest on The One-in-a-Million Boy "A whimsical and bittersweet novel about finding friendship in the most unlikely places." -- Good Housekeeping on The One-in-a-Million Boy "A lovely, quirky novel about misfits across the generations...There is humour as well as hope." -- Daily Mail on The-One-in-a-Million Boy "Although most readers will find tissues often necessary while navigating the layers of this story, the conclusion will leave them smiling through their tears." -- ShelfAwareness on The One-in-a-Million Boy "[A] bittersweet new novel ... resulting in a devastating story." -- Publishers Weekly on The One-in-a-Million Boy "In The One-in-a-Million Boy, Monica Wood tells a magical, beautifully written story about the healing power of friendship, music, and unexpected, generation-spanning connections. As emotionally resonant as The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time, this novel hums with energy, warmth, wisdom, humor, and soul." -- Christina Baker Kline "In her intimate but expansive memoir, Monica Wood explores not only her family's grief but also the national end of innocence. Braiding her own story of mourning together with the heartbreak all around her, Wood has written a tender memoir of a very different time." -- Oprah Magazine, on When We Were the Kennedys "On her own terms, wry and empathetic, Wood locates the melodies in the aftershock of sudden loss...That a memory piece as pacific and unassuming as When We Were the Kennedys should be allowed a seat in the hothouse society of tell-alls is a tribute to the welcoming sensibility of its author and the knowing faith of her publisher. " -- Boston Globe on When We Were the Kennedys "Monica Wood is a stunning writer...If I were standing beside you, I would press this book into your hands." -- Lily King, on When We Were the Kennedys, "What a master of plot and character Monica Wood is. I love the various worlds Meanwhile took me to: a prison, a bookshop, and a laboratory, all in Portland, Maine. And I love how hopefully Wood writes about grief and second chances on behalf of her three protagonists. Surely everyone who reads this novel will want to offer Ollie, a voluble African grey parrot, a home." -- Margot Livesey, New York Times bestselling author of The Boy in the Field and The Flight of Gemma Hardy, "What a master of plot and character Monica Wood is. I love the various worlds How to Read a Book took me to: a prison, a bookshop, and a laboratory, all in Portland, Maine. And I love how hopefully Wood writes about grief and second chances on behalf of her three protagonists. Surely everyone who reads this novel will want to offer Ollie, a voluble African grey parrot, a home." -- Margot Livesey, New York Times bestselling author of The Boy in the Field and The Flight of Gemma Hardy "A young female ex-con, a widower who was collateral damage, and a woman who runs the prison bookclub--three indelible voices (and let's not forget one extraordinary parrot's), remind us that life is full of mysteries, and sometimes the ones we believe are unsolvable are the ones that might save us. About second chances (our lives need not be apologies), the weight of forgiveness, our bond with our books, and the stubborn way love can make us see a world shining with mercy, Wood's new novel is both incandescent and unforgettable." -- Caroline Leavitt, New York Times bestselling author of With or Without You and Pictures of You

Synopsis

"The perfect pick to really light a fire under my book club, and yours....A reminder that goodness, and books, can still win in this world." --New York Times Book Review "A beautiful, big-hearted treasure of a novel." --Lily King National Bestseller * From the award-winning author of The One-in-a-Million Boy comes a heartfelt, uplifting novel about a chance encounter at a bookstore, exploring redemption, unlikely friendships, and the life-changing power of sharing stories. Our Reasons meet us in the morning and whisper to us at night. Mine is an innocent, unsuspecting, eternally sixty-one-year-old woman named Lorraine Daigle... Violet Powell, a twenty-two-year-old from rural Abbott Falls, Maine, is being released from prison after serving twenty-two months for a drunk-driving crash that killed a local kindergarten teacher. Harriet Larson, a retired English teacher who runs the prison book club, is facing the unsettling prospect of an empty nest. Frank Daigle, a retired machinist, hasn't yet come to grips with the complications of his marriage to the woman Violet killed. When the three encounter each other one morning in a bookstore in Portland--Violet to buy the novel she was reading in the prison book club before her release, Harriet to choose the next title for the women who remain, and Frank to dispatch his duties as the store handyman--their lives begin to intersect in transformative ways. How to Read a Book is an unsparingly honest and profoundly hopeful story about letting go of guilt, seizing second chances, and the power of books to change our lives. With the heart, wit, grace, and depth of understanding that has characterized her work, Monica Wood illuminates the decisions that define a life and the kindnesses that make life worth living. "A deeply humane and touching novel; highly recommended for book clubs and fans of Shelby Van Pelt's Remarkably Bright Creatures." -- Booklist, "A deeply humane and touching novel; highly recommended for book clubs and fans of Shelby Van Pelt's Remarkably Bright Creatures." -- Booklist "A beautiful, big-hearted treasure of a novel." --Lily King From the award-winning author of The One-in-a-Million Boy comes a heartfelt, uplifting novel about a chance encounter at a bookstore, exploring redemption, unlikely friendships, and the life-changing power of sharing stories.
