I immediately thought of this for #allrise as it‘s set in a courtroom....

#AllRise, please, for Horace Rumpole, Barrister at law. (OK, I know one normally rises for the judge, but this humorous court room series was the first thing that popped into my head for today‘s prompt!)

We Are Called to Rise | Laura McBride

#AllRise I read this book a few years back and I remember being amazed at how well the separate stories crystallized into a singular plot. Achingly beautiful but terribly brutal, this story was an emotional gut punch. We meet a woman who‘s marriage is imploding, an Iraq war veteran, a case worker, a young immigrant from Albania and his pen pal, a man recovering from an attempted suicide all residing in glittering but fading Las Vegas.

peaKnit This makes me want to read it again! 5y
Cinfhen I think this was her debut @peaknit I‘m curious if she‘s written something new since this book was published?! 5y
peaKnit I think you are right, I may have to investigate. 5y
