Mindy Shapero“I just finished this book last night, I woke up still thinking about it. This would be a fun book club book. Ann Patchett is just the best story teller. I don’t want to give too much away about it, but you probably have heard- it’s about her rebuilding a relationship with her step father that she hasn’t seen in 44 years. It’s just this book full of memories that unveil another layer of truths. I also kept thinking about age, how we age, and the ages of people we spend our time with, therefore the conversations we have, that affect the thoughts we have, you get my drift? Anyway, read it! It’s an easy read after reading something a little more dense.”

Kate Fisher“Possibly one of my favorite books of the year. Tore through it in three days and could not wait to get into bed to read it every night. Stunningly written and incredibly moving. Life, loss, what we carry, and what we survive.”

Lisa“This book was wonderful. That’s a paltry description for a novel I found to be sparely written and so, so tender.i read a lot and often books get stuck in the mush of my brain. I know I read it and I recall only the vaguest impression of the story. whistler shall not suffer that fate.”
