The Witch Elm by Tana French
5.0

I’ve officially read all that Tana French has written (to date). And I have to say that, from start to finish, all of her books have really impressed me with the way they ask deep and important questions about who we are and why we are the way we are. Those, for me, are the most important questions a book can ask a reader, and it’s what sets excellent books apart from mediocre ones. It’s the difference between “what is that book about?” and “what happens in that book?” The way French uses her stories and characters to push the reader into examining themselves is what makes her a master, and I’m so glad to have stumbled upon her books. I hope she writes more, but even if she doesn’t, the ones she has put into the world will continue to give me lots to think about.
