Book Twentyseven: The Monsters of Templeton
8.16.2009
The Monsters of Templeton, Lauren Groff

Oh, good lordy. From beginning to end a fabulous read. I love this kind of epic novel with a hugely personal feel. I love this vividly imagined town--though how imagined is it vs. the reality of Cooperstown, I don't know. There were some minor contrivances, though I'm more forgiving of these things when the story is so good. And not to mention a map! And photos! And family trees!
