Book Covers - Day 5

elmey nominated me to post covers of seven books I love - one cover a day for a week. There is to be no explanation or review, just covers. I'm opting out of tagging others!

I had to look this one up, I don't think I ever heard of it, though I see it was a bestseller.

A number of your choices verge toward a heightened realism--your library seems to be very interesting and a little unexpected.

Heightened realism fits the bill for this one, that's for sure:)

You are, apparently, allowed to discuss them in the comments. Could you share some thoughts on this one?

I second that.

It's a coming of age story. I love the characters and the writing style. The father of the family is deeply religious. Miracles/unexplained phenomena happen (and drive the plot). Second son Reuben, who narrates, winds up saying 'It happened, make of it what you will.' My take is magical thinking / unexplained phenomena:)

One for my list!
