Argh, I can’t do “without reservation,” because I always have reservations about this kind of thing. But if your tastes are close to mine:
The Fictional Man, Al Ewing
Where’d You Go, Bernadette, Maria Semple
S., Doug Dorst w/ JJ Abrams
All of those have come out in the last year or so, I think? That’s fairly recent-ish. If your tastes aren’t close to mine, then I’ve heard very good things about that one about the thingyamy. You know the one I mean, by whozawhatsit.
