The Lincoln Highway by Amor TowlesMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
Just as I loved A Gentleman From Moscow (read & listened to it 4x) The Lincoln Highway was such a great read---brothers Emmett and Billy were great characters and I loved how the author used Woolley & Duchess as foils to the plans the brothers have to get out of town and travel The Lincoln Highway. Spread out over 10 days, with a book about heroes being read by Billy to himself and others, so much happens and many secondary characters (Ulysses, Sally, Sarah) come in and out of Emmett and Billy's lives over those 10 days and impact these brothers as well. Taking Place in the 1950s, there are many famous places on the postcards Billy has, Woolley and Duchess have their agendas and places and people to see and the many wonderful stories from Billy's hero book weave a road trip this reader will never forget! Highly recommended!
