News from Heaven: The Bakerton Stories by Jennifer Haigh
4.0
RATING: 4 STARS
I really enjoyed these short stories about Bakerton (sequel of sorts to [b:Baker Towers|72876|Baker Towers|Jennifer Haigh|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1442809256l/72876._SY75_.jpg|1701483]). Some were from the Novak family, and some from other townspeople. I love Haigh's novels for her character studies. She is able to make everyday life such an interesting story. I think that is the hardest kind of writing to keep a reader interested without twists, purposefully hateful characters, action, etc. I am so happy to be back to reading Haigh, and the Bakerton books.
