Tell Me Everything: Oprah's Book Club: A Novel

I Love Elizabeth Strout’s books! When I got this for my birthday I decided I needed to read all of her books before reading this one. This was just as good as the rest, but especially loved it because her past characters from various books were woven into the story. Just loved it!

This novel felt like a quiet tapestry of real lives—messy, ordinary, and deeply human. Strout doesn’t go for drama or big twists; instead, she finds meaning in small moments and everyday conversations. The way she writes about connection, aging, and the quiet ache of being human is beautiful and true. If you love character-driven stories that linger long after the last page, this one will stay with you. It reminded me how much people want to be seen and heard—and how powerful it is when someone says, “Tell me everything,” and means it.

i love these ongoing stoies. and what a cross over episode this was !

Oh I just love Olive and her lack of filter. So refreshing. I do admire the way Elizabeth Strout writes about Everyman in such a relatable way. Emotions we have all experienced, expressed beautifully and simply.

If you had asked me last night, I would have given this book 4 or 5 stars but now it’s a 2 or 3.

I really loved this book and was invested. The ending wasn’t predictable, which I liked, but so many other parts of it were. I really thought this book had such good potential but the ending was so disappointing and underwhelming.
