Literary Fiction
No Such Thing as Monday
by Siân Hughes
In this fractious and darkly funny novel, a woman named Steffie finds her father dead, then sets off to make peace with the past by reconciling with her estranged sister. For a story that touches on jail time, drugs and wayward youth, the book nimbly avoids bleakness and despair. “Steffie is one of those fictional creations you probably would and should run screaming from in real life,” our reviewer wrote. “But on the page, she’s a pretty great hang: spiky, sharp-witted, blazingly self-aware.” Read our review.
