You and me both! My mother has been begging me to read him for decades and I’ve put her off and now all I want to do is read This Tender Land (I bought a copy!).

What a great writer! The story had me captivated from the beginning. I can hardly wait to read his other books.

I feel like I have so much to catch up on with his books- which is one of the best parts of reading: discovering authors you haven’t read!

Sorry for the delay in this reply. I bought a copy of Tender Land!

I’ve made note of the Cork series- but not on audio. Yuck!

I definitely think you’d like some of WKK’s other books. Ordinary Grace and This Tender Land are 2 stand-alone novels that sound very similar to his new book. And if you like his writing style and midwestern/Minnesota setting, I think you’d also enjoy the Cork O’Conner series. I accidentally started with book 17 and then went back and started at the beginning. I enjoyed it on it’s own, but see the benefit of having the backstory from earlier books. If you want a new crime series, this is a good one to try (18 books). Audio narrator on the series is not great. Lots of weird pauses, swallowing and lip smacking. Excellent on the page though.
