A few days ago I finished a book called A Tree Grows in Brooklyn by Betty Smith. I definitely wouldn't describe it as an exciting read, but I am so glad that I read it. It's one of those books that seems to take on the crazy, ambiguous subject of "life" and somehow manages to nail it. The characters also strike me as real people more than fictional ones from another era.

It can be a slow read, but A Tree Grows in Brooklyn is one of those simply written, but incredibly thought provoking books that you won't forget once you've finished.
