Readers say *Buckeye: A Read with Jenna Pick* by Patrick Ryan is beautifully written with vivid, engaging storytelling and deeply drawn characters spa...
Bestsellers in this age of over-hyped marketing rarely live up to heightened expectations. Buckeye bucks this trend with its superb storytelling, compelling characters, and deftly woven structure that captured this reader from first sentence to last. I liken the satisfying experience gained from reading this book to that derived from reading Patchett's The Dutch House, Kingsolver's Demon Copperhead, and Towles' The Lincoln Highway. Ryan is a brilliant writer, and I can hardly wait to explore his other works.
Wonderful story that spans over several decades and several wars. Starting with WWII with 2 young couples. Cal and Becky, Margret and Felix. Ages the years go by, the couples lives get enter twined with each other. It was a joy to read. Interesting histroy, from WWi all the way to Vietman War.
This is an epic…a masterpiece that tackles huge theses of war, infidelity, homosexuality, secrets, abandonment, and more. Deeply drawn characters are beautifully rendered. A great book to discuss because it is so rich.
