Room
What It's About: If the theme of resilience and the bond between a parent and a child appeals to you, Room is a fantastic novel about a woman trying to survive an impossible situation. Jo is a captive of a man who kidnapped her seven years ago, and her son has only know life in that room. Jo and Jack's story is captivating and well-excuted, but fair warning that the book is told from the perspective of 5-year-old Jack, so you can decide whether that's something that you could enjoy.Publication Date: August 20, 2010

The Nightingale
What It's About: I'm guessing most people who read The Four Winds have probably already read The Nightingale since it's also authored by Kristin Hannah and was immensely popular. But if you haven't, it's a tear-jerker of a WWII story that is loved by many.Publication Date: October 8, 2015

Water for Elephants
What It's About: Sara Gruen's Water for Elephants provides a slightly different perspective on Despression and Prohibition-era America. Jacob Jankowski is distraught following the death of his parents and ends up joining a circus. It's a book filled with wonder that takes you on a entertaining journey, filled with romance. I'll also add that it's a book club-type book in the same way that The Four Winds is (relatively fast paced, not too literary, accessible, interesting plot, etc.)Publication Date: May 22, 2006
