Why read it?

1 author picked Beautiful Animals as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

Lawrence Osborne is one of the best living writings turning out novels right now. Period. 

His prose is beautiful, his attention to setting and detail (often in foreign exotic locations) is impeccable and the depth and momentum driving the stories is dazzling. Beautiful Animals is no exception.

It involves friends Naomi and Samantha on the Greek Island of Hyrdra discovering a stranger, a man named Faoud, sleeping heavily, exposed to the elements, but still alive. A story of manipulation, greed and ultimatel betrayal, Osborne takes us on a journey that does not let up!

As a writer, I learn so…
