Sara This is a popular format with lots of options out there.

A Place for Us
books by Susanna Kearsley - newest book is

What are some of your favorites?


message 2: by Britany (new)

Britany | 1665 comments I just read The Glass Ocean and this would count here also multiple female authors.


message 3: by Megan (new)

Megan | 361 comments Any of the Game of Thrones books would work for this.


message 4: by Keri (new)

Keri | 43 comments Which new book by Susanna Kersley would work?


message 5: by Beth (new)

Beth Ralph | 23 comments Most of Colleen Hoovers books.


message 6: by Kodi (new)

Kodi (kodibev) | 1 comments I just finished The Book of Unknown Americans and I felt the different POVs contributed to the story in a beautiful way.


message 8: by Rachelnyc (new)

Rachelnyc | 186 comments Keri wrote: "Which new book by Susanna Kersley would work?"

Her newest is Bellewether and I definitely recommend it to anyone who is a fan of hers.


message 9: by Nullifidian (new)

Nullifidian The books I'm debating between for this category are:

To the Lighthouse by Virginia Woolf
The Waves by Virginia Woolf
Specimen Days by Michael Cunningham (who also wrote the more famous book The Hours with the same multiple-POV approach, but they didn't have that at my local bookstore during its going-out-of-business sale and they did have this)


message 10: by Marisa (new)

Marisa Molina (molinaml) | 0 comments One of Us Is Lying would work for this prompt. It is told through the POV of all four characters. I read it last year for the challenge and it was really good!


nomadreader (Carrie D-L) (nomadreader) | 0 comments One of my favorite (great on audio too!) is All Involved. It's about the L.A. Riots, and it's so good.


message 12: by Kenya (last edited Feb 20, 2019 06:26AM) (new)

Kenya Starflight | 971 comments Attachments is another Rainbow Rowell with multiple POVs.

EDIT: Disregard this -- turns out there's just one POV...


message 14: by Jackie (new)

Jackie | 38 comments I read this a couple prompts ago Prodigal Summer


message 15: by Dave (new)

Dave Breakenride | 6 comments Irvine Welsh is great for this, whether it's Trainspotting Porno or Dead Men's Trousers


Raquel (Silver Valkyrie Reads) | 896 comments This one seems hard to track down, especially since the list I found seems to be incredibly inaccurate. I may just wait and fill this one with the first one I notice fits while reading next year.


message 17: by Tracy (last edited Nov 10, 2018 11:27AM) (new)

Tracy (tracyisreading) | 608 comments The Poisonwood Bible fits here and is excellent. I also loved The Smell of Other People's Houses

I also agree with Eleanor & Park and One of Us Is Lying


message 18: by Kristy (new)

Kristy (kristy67) | 53 comments A Tale for the Time Being. One chapter is a diary entry and the next is about the person reading the diary.


message 19: by Corinna (new)

Corinna | 8 comments A few books that come to mind are:

All the Bright Places
Cloud Atlas
Kafka on the Shore
and almost all novels by Matt Ruff, if you're looking for a quirky read.


message 21: by Alyssa (new)

Alyssa (tinyshinycello) | 26 comments Six of Crows!!! All 6 characters POV are told. The hype is real with this one.

Keri | 43 comments Rachelnyc wrote: "Keri wrote: "Which new book by Susanna Kersley would work?"

Yay! I have that one on my shelf already!

It's one of my favorite of hers. Actually, I just realized it would probably fit for ghost story as well.


message 24: by Samantha (new)

Samantha Ohotto | 2 comments All The Ugly and Wonderful Things would work for this. The story told from multiple POVs


message 25: by Aimee Dars (new)

Aimee Dars (aimeedars) | 102 comments Wonder Valley is excellent. If you like literary-ish mysteries, Fiona Barton's novels are told from multiple POVs.


message 27: by Dani (new)

Dani Weyand | 378 comments I think Commonwealth and Fates and Furies would work for this prompt


message 29: by Serendipity (new)

Serendipity | 146 comments Let The Great World Spin by Colum McCann.


message 30: by Tracy (new)

Tracy (tracyisreading) | 608 comments Samantha wrote: "All The Ugly and Wonderful Things would work for this. The story told from multiple POVs"

Excellent book. One of, If not my favorite, from last year!

I have Homegoing sitting on my shelf. I didn't realize it would fit here.


message 31: by The Chapter Conundrum (Stacey) (last edited Nov 11, 2018 03:44AM) (new)

The Chapter Conundrum (Stacey) | 404 comments All 4 books from The 100 series by Kass Morgan fit this category! *Yes these are the books the Netflix show is based on BUT the books are different than the show so be warned! My favourite character of the series, Glass, doesn't even exist on the show *facepalms*

Day 21
Homecoming
Rebellion


message 32: by Jenny (new)

Jenny (juliababyjen) | 190 comments I love this prompt! Multiple POV books are so fun!

I may read the Fatemarked series for this one! I believe there are 5 POVs. I've read the first 2, so I may either reread or move on the next book.


message 33: by Jessica (new)

Jessica (jessierosebud) | 8 comments Spinning Silver by Naomi Novik would work for this


message 34: by Nicole (new)

Nicole | 97 comments I recently read Wonder and The Sun Is Also a Star and loved them.
The sun is also a star also takes place on one day so would fit two promps.


Thegirlintheafternoon I just finished The Indian Lawyer, and it would work for this prompt! It was really well done.


message 36: by Maja (new)

Maja  - BibliophiliaDK ✨ (bibliophiliadk) | 35 comments I will definitely recommend What If It's Us by Becky Albertalli and Adam Silvera for this prompt! Such a great book told from the perspective of two guys, Ben and Arthur


message 38: by Melissa (new)

Melissa Morris | 3 comments One I read last year which would fit is The Moonstone by Wilkie Collins. Good if you like classics and/or slightly ridiculous heists. I also second Homegoing and A Tale for the Time Being, both of which have really stayed with me after reading. All the Light We Cannot See is also an entertaining read.


message 39: by Rachael (new)

Rachael | 136 comments Some of the David Eddings books work for this one, I forget their names but I am pretty sure it's the last two books in both the Belgariad and the Malloreon series


message 40: by jordan (new)

jordan chaffee (jaychaff) | 6 comments Alyssa wrote: "Six of Crows!!! All 6 characters POV are told. The hype is real with this one."

Yes! Just finished this and hope to read the sequel for the challenge in January (if I can wait that long). If not, I'll get to finishing ASoIaF.

This year I finished the Lunar Chronicles and the Strange the Dreamer duology, both of which I'd recommend and have multiple POVs.


message 41: by Crystal (new)

Crystal | 33 comments I am currently reading the The Night Circus and it has multiple POVs.


message 42: by Brittany (new)

Brittany Morrison | 145 comments I read Everything Here Is Beautiful this year and would definitely suggest it for this prompt. Its a fiction novel but it looks at how psychiatric disorders affect the individual and their family members. So good.


message 43: by Chrissi (last edited Nov 12, 2018 01:35PM) (new)

Chrissi (clewand84) | 238 comments Most of Kate Morton's books are multiple POV, I think - I finished The Distant Hours last year and enjoyed it. I've already read The Secret Keeper and can recommend it.

Into the Water has many POV - I listened to it last year, and had to pay very close attention to it.

I'm going to read People Kill People, a YA book by Ellen Hopkins that has 6 different narrators mostly in verse form, talking about why people pick up and/or use guns. Timely and frightening.

Other rec's:
Everything I Never Told You
The Two-Family House
Small Island
The Nightingale (at least the 2 sisters, as I remember?)
Wonder


message 44: by Milena (new)

Milena (milenas) | 1195 comments Salt to the Sea is told from multiple POV. I really liked the audiobook, with a different narrator reading each character.


message 45: by Jenny (new)

Jenny (juliababyjen) | 190 comments Milena wrote: "Salt to the Sea is told from multiple POV. I really liked the audiobook, with a different narrator reading each character."

Oh yes, good one! This book is fantastic!


message 46: by Vivian (new)

Vivian Fonger (vivian_fonger) | 32 comments I just read two recently:
Family Trust
Lying in Wait


message 47: by Tina (last edited Nov 13, 2018 05:06AM) (new)


message 49: by Lindi (new)

Lindi (lindimarie) I can't recommend The Last Letter from Your Lover by Jojo Moyes enough.


message 50: by Josie (last edited Nov 14, 2018 04:09PM) (new)

Josie Lacey | 82 comments If anyone is planning to read The Knife of Never Letting Go for the book becoming a movie prompt, I believe the next book in the trilogy The Ask and the Answer is told from more than one POV.
