Heather’s Picks

Heather Reisman, the founder and CEO of Indigo (a Canadian bookstore chain), regularly recommends books that she has read and loved. These books are dubbed “Heather’s Picks,” and are sold with Heather’s Pick stickers on the covers at Indigo bookstores.

It’s rare that I’ve read a Heather’s Pick that I haven’t loved. At some point, I’d like to read every Heather’s Pick, but at this point, there have been approximately 300, so it will take some time!

Some of my favourite Heather’s Picks are:

• Beartown by Fredrik Backman
• Be Ready When the Luck Happens by Ina Garten
• Broken Country by Clare Leslie Hall
• The Calamity Club by Kathryn Stockett
• The Correspondent by Virginia Evans
• The Dutch House by Ann Patchett
• Educated by Tara Westover
• The Education of an Idealist by Samantha Power
• The Frozen River by Ariel Lawhon
• The Goldfinch by Donna Tartt
• James by Percival Everett
• The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini
• Lessons in Chemistry by Bonnie Garmus
• The Lincoln Highway by Amor Towles
• Longbourn by Jo Baker
• A Man Called Ove by Fredrik Backman
• My Friends by Fredrik Backman
• The Nightingale by Kristin Hannah
• The Paper Palace by Miranda Cowley Heller
• The Paris Wife by Paula McLain

• Sarah’s Key by Tatiana de Rosnay
• Small Things Like These by Claire Keegan
• Strangers by Belle Burden
• Where the Crawdads Sing by Delia Owens
• Whistler by Ann Patchett

I could have added many more titles to the above list, but I tried to limit myself!

If I see that a book is a Heather’s Pick, I feel confident that it will be a book that I’ll enjoy. There is also a money-back guarantee for Heather’s Picks, so if you purchase a Heather’s Pick and don’t enjoy it, you can return it.
