Alicia | 7 comments Can anyone suggest some stories written mostly in letters? I've read some in the past and they are usually a quick read. Thanks for your help!


message 2: by Alicia (new)

Alicia | 7 comments two that I have already read are:
Sam's letters to Jennifer by James Patterson
the Wednesday letters by Jason F Wright


message 3: by [deleted user] (new)

The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society is partly written in this style.

Alicia | 7 comments Thanks ladies! These all look really good. I've heard that Guernsey is really good- didn't know it was that format! And just pulled up the next two recommendations and they both look great too! Looks like I'll be downloading some books on my nook tonight. :)

Lynn | 2974 comments You may already know this one (it's pretty well known) but just in case I suggest 84, Charing Cross Road

A truly gorgeous book.

Julia Gallagher (juliagallagher) | 140 comments If you're a Jane Austen fan, Lady Susan is very underrated in my opinion! It has an epistolary narrative.

I'm finally getting to the point where mine lets me read during the day a little, and he is 3!

Alicia | 7 comments oh no! Two more years?! If I look away for a minute to read a paragraph she tries to ride our dog! Glad to know this is normal. ;)

Rusalka (rusalkii) | 19206 comments How does the dog feel about that?


message 13: by Lanelle (new)

Lanelle | 4020 comments Here's a few more for you to consider:
Sorcery & Cecelia: or The Enchanted Chocolate Pot
Daddy-Long-Legs
The Screwtape Letters

This type of genre is called epistolary. Try looking in Listopia for more books.

Dawn (caveatlector) | 1788 comments Augustus if you like roman historical fiction. It's short and quite interesting.
