Slow-moving, but full of good things to think about. Like an old science fiction novel from the 60s, but with more interesting women.

Scenes from an Impending Marriage, by Adrian Tomine
Cute, fun. Liked the deliberate shout-outs to Peanuts.

Bring Up the Bodies, by Hilary Mantel
As anything other than a sequel to Wolf Hall, this would've blown me away. But Wolf Hall was better. I think. Maybe it was me. Anyway, it was still very very good. Mantel's command of the language and ability to bring small moments to life were as sharp as ever.
