This sounds like a great read. I like how you labeled it, the thriller touch to literary fiction, thanks for that.Marcehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10136238772526246675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30771807.post-23878827602133720052016-06-06T17:58:39.040+08:002016-06-06T17:58:39.040+08:00Jenny - I'm very curious about Station Eleven ...Jenny - I'm very curious about Station Eleven since I've heard nothing but raves about it.

But I loved Station Eleven, and I thought The Singer's Gun was absolutely wonderful as well. Both of them had that quality of carefully plotted brilliance, with pieces clicking into place as you got further and further in. Love a well-wrangled plot!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30771807.post-63662737855741446662016-06-03T05:14:26.821+08:002016-06-03T05:14:26.821+08:00This is so different from her other book, isn'...This is so different from her other book, isn't it?
