Wife and I just finished “These Precious Days” by Ann Patchett last night. This collection of essays is mindblowingly good, and Patchett gives a perfect 10 performance as narrator of the audio book.
While a good portion of the book deals with her friend Sooki’s pancreatic cancer, the story she weaves about friendship and resiliance is a wonderful ride.

What makes Lara more than content on her Michigan orchard with her loving husband seems dull to her three adult daughters. They are more interested in her brief acting career and her youthful romance with a future major movie star. Lara decides to tell the three of them her whole story–with some omissions. TOM LAKE is lovely, deep, and real in the way that only #AnnPatchett can write. Coming out July 5. Thank you @librarylovefest #ewgc @ewgc @bookstodon #bookstodon

Last week, I tooted about the wonders of secondhand books. This is my latest example. Ann Patchett’s account of her friendship with fellow writer Lucy Grealy is unforgettable: tragic but also life-affirming. I’m sensitive to the Grealy family’s objections to the book; but to me it is a wonderful reminder of the power and value of friendship. A tough read at times - but one that will stay with you.
