You know how when you read a book that you love, you are elated and then when it’s over, you’re sort of depressed, because you think there will never be another book that you’ll love as much–and then there is, and you’re elated all over again?

I’m reading Anne Tyler’s newest novel and I will say, I love it as much as I loved Accidental Tourist, which was not only a great book, but a great movie adaptation.

This book also interests me because I sense Tyler infusing the book with her life, and I’m always interested in how we translate bits of our lives into fiction.

(Actually, I’m listening to it on CD, with Blair Brown–Days and Nights of Molly Dodd, with the wonder David Strathairn–doing a stellar job reading.)

What are you reading that you love?
