The Thirteenth Tale by Diane Setterfield
Type: Fiction
My rating: 5 stars (out of 5)
Why I chose it: This book was sitting in my library for about 6 months. I think it must have been on a top selling list at one time and caught my eye.
What I liked about it: I wish I would have picked this up and read it sooner. This is a book for book lovers about book lovers. One of the main characters is a world famous writer of books. Another works in a used book store and is an avid reader. This book is a classic example of great story telling. You can almost imagine sitting around a cozy fire and having this story told to you by someone. I found myself carrying this book around so that any free time I had I could crack it open and read a bit. This one kept me up past my usual bedtime each night, which is my internal gauge as to when a book becomes a 5-star pick for me.
