Adriana Trigiani is one of my very favorite authors. It started years ago for me with Big Stone Gap. The View From Lake Como is her newest book. If you enjoy large families this is the book for you.
The River is Waiting
by Wally Lamb
From the author of She's Come Undone and I Know This Much is True, this is one of those books that is so well written, and the characters seem so real, that you can almost ignore the dark themes.
