The Underground Railroad by Colson Whitehead (Doubleday) “Although anchored in a 19th-century landscape where black bodies hang publicly from trees as warnings to any slaves considering escape, the violence of The Underground Railroad reeks with 21st-century resonance.” — Porscha Burke, Weekend Post2. The Girls by Emma Cline (Random House)3. Red Notice: A True Story of High Finance, Murder, and One Man’s Fight for Justice by Bill Browder (Simon & Schuster)3.
