When I think of a kaleidoscopic book, I immediately think of Colum McCann’s “Let the Great World Spin”. It’s one of my all time favorite reads, so many story lines intricately woven together. His novel “This Side of Brightness” is also excellent and I think of it often.

I love the this concept of kaleidoscope reads, I enjoy that type of read too and will keep your list for reference- I've only read Signal Fires

Love the term “kaleidoscopic”--those are frequently the kinds of books I reach for instinctually. Most recently, I just read Colin Walsh’s debut novel “Kala” and it was fabulous. Ireland’s literary scene is on fire lately!

Sara!! Thank you so much for these epic recommendations!!! I’ve read and loved several, which makes me even more stoked for the ones I haven’t read yet. I just perused my shelf to pull out a few I want to prioritize next-- what a delight! 💛
