Marissa Stapley Book Recommendations & Book Mentions

Marissa Stapley

If you'd told me a few weeks ago that a novel about the end of the world ...would make me feel hopeful, renew my faith in humanity, shoot straight onto my list of all-time favourites -- I wouldn't have believed you but this! Book! Hopeful, heartbreaking, clever, gorgeous.

Laurie has dreamed up a fictional university in the woods. It’s the nineties, as you can perhaps tell from the cover...For fans of THE SECRET HISTORY or BIG LITTLE LIES, you’ll want to be reading this one this summer!

In case you didn't know (i.e. you've been living under a rock) @reesewitherspoon and @harlancoben have collaborated on a suspense thriller called GONE BEFORE GOODBYE about a disgraced army combat surgeon named Maggie McCabe... Half a chapter in and I'm already addicted.

Happy book birthday to Tessa Hadley’s FREE LOVE, a brilliant work of fiction that takes on big topics like marriage and infidelity, delivers Alice Munro levels of insight into the human soul and is novel I missed when it was over. A perfect read for book clubs! @PenguinRandomCA https://t.co/JIdCJAovvc

I’ve been waiting all day to curl up under a blanket with @ginasorell ‘s THE WISE WOMEN, which I started earlier on this subway, and nearly missed my stop! It’s immediately engaging, and wow, what a beautiful cover. 🤩Congratulations, Gina! @harperbooks https://t.co/K4BJ13Azb2

I am honoured and elated to share that LUCKY is the Reese’s Book Club December pick! For three months, I’ve had this delightful, life-changing secret in my back pocket … like a lottery ticket! ;-) It has brought me so much happiness, and now I get to share the joy!
