This month, we are reading: Peace Like a River by Leif Enger

Description from the publisher:

Leif Enger’s debut novel, Peace Like A River, a perennial best-selling American classic, is at once a heroic quest, a tragedy, and a love story, in which “there is magic... none more potent than Leif Enger’s prose” (Newsday). Enger brings us eleven-year-old Reuben Land, an asthmatic boy in the Midwest who has reason to believe in miracles. Along with his sister and father, Reuben finds himself on a cross-country search for his outlaw older brother who has been charged with murder. Their journey unfolds like a revelation, and its conclusion shows how family, love, and faith can stand up to the most terrifying of enemies, and the most tragic of fates.
