With Valentine’s Day on the horizon I thought I would revisit a favorite genre of mine: books about affairs. I never set out to read about infidelity, but once I noticed this pattern in my reading life it was hard to unsee it. Almost all of my favorite novels involve some sort of affair (drama! gossip! secrecy!) even if I only came to recognize it in retrospect. Don’t read into what that says about me and do read one of these great books!
