The Dreamers by Karen Thompson Walker
4.5
emotional mysterious medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes

Karen Thompson Walker is quickly becoming one of my favorite authors. She combines sci-fi premises with psychology and deep character development and empathy. 

The Dreamers is about a virus taking hold in a small town. (I can’t believe it was published before Covid; there are so many parallels.) This one will leave a lasting mark, particularly as readers navigate their own pasts, presents, and futures.
