Literary Hub’s best reviewed novel of 2020 also happens to be Matt’s fave novel of 2020 and he’s awfully excited about it! Weather by Jenny Offill is a stunning literary fiction from February 2020. A regular woman begins to obsess over doomsday as she learns more about climate change. Perfectly capturing the ambient anxieties of our time. Weather asks "How do we worry about big picture problems when our own lives are chaos?" Sounds saucy! Pick up your copy today!
