REVIEW: The Lincoln Highway by @amortowles
Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5
Another book to add to my top book list of all time! This is first of Amor’s books I’ve read, and after reading for my work book club, I’m definitely adding A Gentleman from Moscow and Rules of Civility to my reading list.
The Lincoln Highway is so brilliantly written. I loved the nods to the Fourth of July celebrations, especially Woolly’s family tradition of reciting the Gettysburg address. (Note to start practicing with Wright).
I thought the concept of the “debt bank” in relation to karma was so well done. Ultimately, people see situations for how they want to see then, regardless of what’s right and wrong. One of society’s most obvious flaws.
Which brings me to the ending - I don’t think this story could have ended any other way. It was beautifully perfect - it was supposed to be a happy ending…
This book is a great read over the holiday season - you’ll make your way across the USA with Emmett, Billy, Duchess, and Woolly in just 10 days.
