Tom Lake by Ann Patchett
Star Rating: ★★★★★
It is the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic and Emily, Maisie, and Nell have returned to their family farm in northern Michigan. Now grown, they are waiting out the pandemic with their parents, Lara and Joe. As they are working on the farm, the girls get to hear the stories of their parents from before they were born. Ann Patchett is an illustrative writer, letting your mind visually picture places you've been before for the scenery. It creates such comfort within the stories she writes. Meryl Streep performs the audio of Tom Lake and this performance is well, to quote the book, spectacular.
