The Wonder of a New Ann Patchett Novel

The Dutch House by Ann Patchett
Publication Date - September 24, 2019
5 stars

I have debated how to start this review with enough passion to convey house much I love this new novel by Ann Patchett, but I guess I will just say that I really loved this book and let it be.  It is a beautiful family saga about a house, familial bonds and accepting the life you want to live.  I think that Patchett is better than almost anyone else about describing the bonds that develop between humans, whether it be during a hostage situation, at a home for unwed mothers, deep in a jungle or between family members trying to distance themselves from the past.  I received a digital ARC from the publisher through Edelweiss in exchange for an honest review.
