I'm sure there are some lists posted somewhere. I'll see if I can track down a few and link to them here. I will probably be reading Where'd You Go, Bernadette.

Mary Arkless | 153 comments The Aftermath by Rhidian Brook. I first became aware of this book when I saw the trailers for the new movie. It is set in Hamburg just after WWII, which is why it caught my attention. I lived in Hamburg for nine years. The movie is mostly true to the book, although there are two major differences.

Yeah, there are lists all over the place. Just Google it and you'll find plenty. I did listen to WYGB, and I regret slightly that I didn't go hard copy on this to get the full impact of the format of the story. Ah, well, I ended up liking it, though I had a hard time at the outset. I think I was expecting it to be a comedy. When it clicked that it was a tragic story with satirical elements, I did much better.
