Love Love in Booklist Editors’ Choice: Adult Books, 2015

Huge thanks to the lovely folks at Booklist who chose Love Love as one of the titles for this year.  It’s not every day that I get to share a list with Jonathan Franzen, Lauren Groff, and Anne Tyler!  Here’s what they had to say about their picks:

The Adult Books editors have selected the following titles as representative of the year’s outstanding books for public library collections. Our scope has been intentionally broad, and we have attempted to find books that combine literary, intellectual, and aesthetic excellence with popular appeal.

And here’s the blurb for mine.

Love Love. By Sung J. Woo. Soft Skull, $15.95 (9781593766177).

Their father’s medical crisis reveals shocking lies and fractures in the lives of siblings Judy Lee, a 38-year-old temp who once dreamed of being an artist, and former tennis pro Kevin in Woo’s sharp, astute, and stunning novel of aging, loss, and disillusion.

Booklist, you made my year.
