I've been devouring books in anticipation of the beginning of the semester (one day in and already I am behind in grading).
Here's three I would recommend from the lot:
Say Nice Things About Detroit by Scott Lasser
A murder mystery set in Detroit
Swimming Home by Deborah Levy
A novel of discontent set in Southern France
The Elephant Keepers' Children by Peter Høeg
A ("madcap" "picaresque" "surreal") adventure of three children searching for their parents set in Denmark

My daughter wants me to add one she just finished:
Little Dog, Lost by Marion Dane Bauer
At various points she kept saying,
"Mama, this book is so sad."
