Four Seasons in Rome: on Twins, Insomnia, and the Biggest Funeral in the History of the World by Anthony Doerr
Travel/Memoir
The author captures the experience of fatherhood, historical discovery, travel, and writing while living in Rome with his wife and twin babies on a writing fellowship. He writes with humor and insight - fascinating reading for anyone, but especially inspiring for travellers to Rome.

World Without End by Ken Follett
Historical Fiction
Follett depicts life in a 14th century British cathedral town through the dreams and passions of four children who grow together and apart during times of plague, war and prosperity. Follett's ability to weave the strenghts and weaknesses of his characters into the tapestry of social and economic change held my attention throughout this long-awaited sequel to Pillars of the Earth.
