Staff Review: A Little Life

December 8, 2021 Words Worth Books

Title/Author: A Little Life - Hanya Yanagihara

Genre(s): Literary Fiction, Coming of Age, Sagas

Hands down, THE best book I have ever read (but bring your tissues - it's also the saddest book I've ever read). Follow four college classmates throughout their lives, heartbreaks, goals, ambitions, and traumas. Whenever they drift apart, they're pulled back together, to Jude. Living with chronic pain, disability, and trauma, the book looks at how male relationships grow and shift throughout the best and hardest parts of life. A perfect read for New Years!

Staff Reviews!

One of the best things about independent books stores is the personal touch. The staff at Words Worth, we’re readers! We love books of all types, not necessarily just the biggest sellers of the moment. On this page, you can find our hand written reviews, see what we’ve been reading, and what we think you should be as well!

We will be adding reviews regularly. Feel free to read through them all (they’re pretty short), or, if you’re looking for something more specific, use the search feature below to search for Literary Fiction, or LGBTQ+, or Fantasy, or Mystery, whatever strikes your fancy.

And come back soon, to see what new titles we’ve been reading.
