Rules of Civility by Amor Towles
5.0

Easily one of my top ten favorite books of all time.

Chock full of sharp, witty dialogue that will make you laugh and break your heart; charming, snappy characters who are enviably strong and relatably vulnerable; and gorgeous prose that will make even the countriest of bumpkins consider buying a one-way ticket to NYC, this book was totally life affirming without ever being sentimental.
