One teenage boy, one brain tumor, and many strange things happening since his surgery - that's what Alex's life is like right now. In this very funny but uniquely bittersweet novel we see the world through his eyes. Read my review of this book here https://tcl-bookreviews.com/2013/09/06/a-life-in-the-day/

The Bird in the Bamboo Cage

4.5/5 Stars! I knew nothing about the Japanese occupation of China during WWII, but this historical, women's, fiction novel really helped fill in that gap. Take a look at my #bookreview on my blog here https://tcl-bookreviews.com/2020/10/09/the-bird-in-the-bamboo-cage/

James Franco recommended Twilight in Books (curated)

"No, not vampires; the late William Gay unfortunately didn't anticipate the world takeover of Bella and Edward when he named his backwoods Tennessee gothic novel, but it is no less a stunning web of Cormac McCarthy-esque necrophilia, murder, spot-on rural dialogue, and haunting renditions of nature. He is my new favorite writer."
