The Shipping News by Annie Proulx
4.0

What can I say, I love Annie Proulx's writing. Each and every sentence is so rich! I read this after obsessing over her short story "Tits Up in a Ditch" for my capstone project (highly recommend giving that one a read). It's incredibly dreary (she seems to like to write about miserable people in miserable conditions) with enough touch of wit to keep you going. Four stars instead of five because it did take some pushing to get through. It's a long one but, I think, it's worth it. Definitely going to keep reading her stuff.
