The Rest of Our Lives. by Markovits, Ben.;
" effortlessly warm, and it uses the smallest parts of human behavior to uphold bigger themes, like mortality, sickness, and love. The Rest of Our Lives is a novel of sincerity and precision. We found it difficult to put it down." -- The Booker Prize 2025 judges: Ayobami Adebayo, Chris Power, Kiley Reid, Roddy Doyle and Sarah Jessica Parker "It would be impossible to read The Rest of Our Lives without pleasure. Fluently written and effortlessly wise about families and middle age, it tells a compelling story that packs a serious emotional punch." --George Cochrane, Telegraph " is a book that has everything -- a clear line of plot, turbulently interesting narrator, themes both modern and timeless -- and feels like one of those books that, as you read, makes you think, "Why aren''t all novels like this?"". --John Self, Critic "This compelling depiction of life at a crossroads is a male counterpart to Miranda July''s All Fours." --Marcel Theroux, Guardian "A triumphant twist on the great American road novel...The Rest of Our Lives is another quiet triumph, an elegant, devastating book... Markovits has long been one of our most under-appreciated novelists; this is yet more proof that he deserves far greater recognition." --Alex Preston, Guardian "What makes The Rest of Our Lives so powerful is its restraint...the novel lingers in the mind, not for what it says outright, but for what it leaves unsaid." --Ruby Eastwood, Irish Sunday Independent "Markovits excels at family relationships: the things said and left unsaid.... Reading Ben Markovits''s gentle, powerful and funny novel, we are reminded that family love can ground us and keep usLibrary Bound Incorporated

Ghost Town : A Novel. by Perrotta, Tom.;
From New York Times bestselling author Tom Perrotta, hailed by critics as "the Steinbeck of Suburbia" (Time), "our Balzac of the burbs" (Chicago Sun-Times), and "an American Chekhov" (The New York Times), comes a gripping and darkly nostalgic tale about a tumultuous summer in 1970s suburban New Jersey, from the perspective of a middle-aged writer, looking back on a series of events that changed his life--and the story he finally has the courage to tell. Jimmy Perrini lives in 1970s suburban New Jersey, a few miles from Manhattan, but a world apart. At the end of eighth grade, after tragedy strikes, Jimmy finds himself lost in a fog of grief that alienates him from friends and family, drifting instead into troubling friendships with two older teenagers: one a notorious local burnout with a fast car, an endless supply of weed, and a shaky grasp of reality; the other a smart, eccentric girl, whom Jimmy finds himself drawn to as they become entranced by her Ouija board, which may just offer the only salve to their grief. As a fateful public drama unfolds, Jimmy is torn between the occult beyond and the cold realities of the place he has called home. Narrated by a much older Jimmy, a literary-turned-commercial novelist, Ghost Town reveals how the past haunts the present--the way our ghosts are always with us, even when we think we've left them behind.Library Bound Incorporated
