Do you enjoy cute, funny, and somewhat quirky novels? Then this one's for you. In the novel The Readers of Broken Wheel Recommend we find Sara traveling from Sweden to stay with her American pen-pal Amy, only to arrive to the news that the woman is dead. Wow, what an opening to a book! The people of Broken Wheel want Sara to stay, as that is what Amy would have wanted, so she does. The format of the book toggles between current time Sara and the recent past of Amy's letters to Sara. It also has a really fun way of weaving popular novels into the story as Sara tries to match town people with books they might like to read. Finally, the author incorporates many of today's issues into the novel. She touches on same sex couples, bisexuality, interracial relationships, town rivalries, and so much more, all without seeming to preach at us. I finished this book with a feeling of satisfaction and confidence that almost everyone would enjoy this book.
