Hello, hello! Welcome to another read-alike post, where I help you find your next good read based on popular authors, well-known authors, or your requests!
Kristin Hannah is known for telling dramatic, sweeping stories often set against the backdrop of iconic moments and periods in history. Whether you are a long time fan of Hannah’s work or recently discovered one of her recent best sellers like Four Winds or The Women, here are some other authors and books that you might enjoy.
A Land More Kind than Home by Wiley Cash. Cash’s quietly dramatic stories have a strong sense of place, memorable characters, and vivid descriptions.
Hello Beautiful by Ann Napolotino. This family drama about four sisters with complicated relationships, as well written characters and an immersive story.
Liane Moriarty. You could start with her newest book, Here One Moment, or one of my personal favorites What Alice Forgot. Moriarty writes complex female characters and propulsive stories that will keep you turning the pages.
The Paris Hours by Alex George. If you particularly love Kristin Hannah’s historical fiction, try this quiet, but also page-turning novel set in Paris during the post-WWI, pre-WWII years, it centers on a pivotal day in the life of several characters whose lives are brought together by a lost notebook of the author Marcel Proust.
The Dutch House by Ann Patchett. Another pick for family drama with compelling, sympathetic characters, complicated relationships, and heart-aching emotion.
