A Gracious Plenty
A Gracious Plenty: A Novel | Sheri Reynolds
2 posts | 3 read | 4 to read
Badly burned in a household accident when she was a child, Finch Nobles grows into a courageous and feisty loner who eschews the pity of her hometown and discovers that she can hear the voices of the people buried in her father's cemetery. Finally, when she speaks to them, they answer, telling their stories in a remarkable chorus of regrets, expla-nations, and insights. A Gracious Plenty is like an extraordinary amalgam of Steinbeck and Faulkner, Spoon River Anthology and Our Town. It is a reading experience that you will not soon forget. From the Trade Paperback edition.

Finch Nobles was burned badly as a child and as an adult lives alone as caretaker of her parents‘ graveyard with only the dead for company. But what company they are - oddly lively and vivid, Reynolds‘ dead manage nature while they tell their stories and wait to get light enough to rise. Atmospheric, mysterious, with a unique main character who is prickly but lovable, this short book made for an unexpectedly good spooky season read. #bookspin

A Gracious Plenty by Sheri Reynolds is always one I recommend. Just a gorgeous story.
The Maisie Dobbs series is one I share a lot. Jacqueline Winspear is a phenomenal historical mystery writer.
My Antonia by Willa Cather is arguably one of the most beautiful books ever written.
