30 Books You Should Read in 2023 - Looking for some awesome books to enjoy this year? Check out our list of 30 books you should read in 2023 to find your next book!
The title of Hanya Yanagihara’s second work of fiction stands in almost comical contrast to its length: at 720 pages, it’s one of the biggest novels to be published this year. To this literal girth there has been added, since the book appeared in March, the metaphorical weight of several prestigious award nominations. Both the size of A Little Life and the impact it has had on readers and critics alike—a best seller, the book has received adulatory reviews in The New Yorker, The Atlantic, The Wall Street Journal, and other serious venues—reflect, in turn, the largeness of the novel’s themes.
The story behind A Little Life by Hanya Yanagihara, including the unique elements of the story, the inspiration, and the writing process.
Four young men meet at a small college in New England. One of them was traumatized as a child, but despite that — or rather because of it — they become bound to one another as their lives continue in New York City. This is a powerful story of love: what it can and cannot do. Jude, JB, Willem, and Malcolm will remain with me forever.—Lillian D.A Little Life is filled with such memorable characters; I still think about them months later. The writing is superb. I found it difficult to start a new book once I'd finished.—Morgan L.
A Little Life begins with four graduates who have moved to New York. There's Willem (the kind, handsome one), JB (the quick-witted, artistic one), Malcom (the frustrated, upwardly-mobile one), and Jude (the brilliant, enigmatic one). They all exist on a wide spectrum of identities...

Sometimes the most beautiful books are the quietest books. Maybe not all that much happens, but they paint a picture of what living really feels like.
A desperate attempt to gather gossip in Louisa May Alcott’s hometown, and, incidentally, a lot of random information about Chris Evans.
With characters so life-like and instantly lovable as the March sisters, it comes as no surprise to learn they aren't totally a work of fiction.
