Random FamilyRead about another novel on the list.
by Adrian Nicole LeBlanc
Harrowing and intimate, this portrait of an extended community in the 1980s Bronx is written with an unparalleled level of access; the way the author manages to be omnipresent and yet totallyunobtrusive is astounding in itself. But not as astounding as the story, which chronicles the lives of several teenage girls as they navigate the labyrinth of relationships, single motherhood, social welfare, prison, the drug trade, and much more.
Random Family is one of Curtis Sittenfeld's favorite books.
