When you’re looking for a good new read, it’s never a bad idea to stick with award winning authors- like Louise Erdrich. She’s got the National  Book Award, PEN/ Saul Bellow, Pulitzer Prize finalist, and more laurels to rest on. Her newest, La Rose, takes place in North Dakota and centers on two families who are linked together by death and growth and a shared son named Dusty.

See if it’s in.
