The Many Deaths of the Firefly Brothers

If you're a fan of "Miller's Crossing" and liked "The Brothers Bloom," you must read the latest Thomas Mullen novel, out recently in paperback.

The Many Deaths of the Firefly Brothers is a very entertaining 1930s gangster book with an alluring element of magical realism.

I picked this up on total impulse, despite my HUUUUUGGGGE pile of things I had to read, and I have zero regrets.

Carpe diem! I encourage you to read your next book just because... It's very liberating and satisfying, kind of like playing hooky to go do something really educational.
