Read “The English Patient” for book group. While I could appreciate the beauty of the prose I found it soooo slow moving as to be quite painful to read. Did make it to the end - just - but will not be reading this again! I think maybe my reading tastes are too lowbrow for prize winning fiction - give me a good thriller any day!

The Underground Railroad, 2017
The Underground Railroad, by Colson Whitehead - Winner, 2017 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction
I have read the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction 2015 - All the Light We Cannot See by Anthony Doerr but I finished it before I set out on a new 1001 things in 1001 days.
So I read the Prize winner for 2014 with The Goldfinch by Donna Tartt.
