Elizabeth Strout Books

“I’ve read all but her newest book which is sitting on my bedside table.”

“If you love Ann Patchett, you will love Elizabeth Strout. In fact, with all due respect to the Patchett-heads out there, every time I read a book by Anne Patchett, I'm like, "wow what a great idea for a book! I wish it was written by Elizabeth Strout!" I avoided reading her for a long time because I didn't like the cover of Olive Kitteridge. (Dumb??) Start with the My Name is Lucy Barton series. Catnip.”

“Do you miss the feeling of blowing through a series as a kid? you can have this same feeling reading an author's back catalogue! This summer, exit the zeitgeist and read everything an author you love has written. Bonus that a lot of older books have no wait at the library. author ideas: - Elizabeth strout - Barbara kingsolver - Ann patchett - George Saunders - Laurie Colwin”

“ooof. the maestro of the inner world. captures loneliness and the complexity of each of her characters so beautifully and honestly.”
