The Paper Palace (Reese's Book Club): A Novel Review: I loved this book! - I loved this book. I loved the characters- excellent dialogue! And the lush descriptions and the propulsive plot-and the great writing--which makes this book fire on all levels. And the details-- some really odd, which I LOVE. It adds to the layers of character. There are so many stand out moments. One thing that comes to mind--when Elle is picking at the nasty grime that has built up in the holes of the ancient table, like earwax--so unusual and real and revealing. You wouldn't call this book funny--but there are some very clever humorous moments--and this is how I like my humor. With wry intelligence. Her sister telling her "fat thighs are like a phantom limb--years later you can feel them rubbing together." There is a balance between humor and pathos and the author hits it out of the park. The way the her husband interacts with the mother, making fun of her memory as if she has dementia is classic. Oh I could go on. Thank you Miranda Cowley Heller for this wonderful book! As a writer of fiction, I love to read something that makes me excited about writing! Review: Good book - a bit long - I bought this book based on recommendations/ratings and seeing it was one that was a part of Reese's Book Club. I don't want to give too much away - I liked the story, but also thought it got to be too much and ended up dragging on. It's one of those where I wanted the characters to just figure their "stuff" out and get on with it! :) It's a longer book and I thought it could've been cut down by at least 1/4. I had not read anything by this author before so perhaps that's her MO and I won't count her out and will certainly try reading another one of her books. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #1,862 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #72 in Women's Domestic Life Fiction #104 in Psychological Fiction (Books) #125 in Literary Fiction (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.1 4.1 out of 5 stars (92,964) | | Dimensions | 5.18 x 1.03 x 7.98 inches | | Edition | Reprint | | ISBN-10 | 059332983X | | ISBN-13 | 978-0593329832 | | Item Weight | 2.31 pounds | | Language | English | | Print length | 400 pages | | Publication date | April 19, 2022 | | Publisher | Riverhead Books | ## Images ![The Paper Palace (Reese's Book Club): A Novel - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/8196jTFIdLL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I loved this book! *by L***Z on March 18, 2026* I loved this book.

I don't want to give too much away - I liked the story, but also thought it got to be too much and ended up dragging on. It's one of those where I wanted the characters to just figure their "stuff" out and get on with it! :) It's a longer book and I thought it could've been cut down by at least 1/4. I had not read anything by this author before so perhaps that's her MO and I won't count her out and will certainly try reading another one of her books. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Beautifully Written *by M***9 on April 4, 2026* This book is filled with poetic and lyrical descriptions of people and places. Very beautifully written. The subject matter is rather intense, however, dealing with highly emotional matters. The adults in Elle's life were consumed with their own narcissistic endeavors, which are ongoing throughout her life. Having known only that, she lives her life putting others' happiness above her own. Elle endures an horrific situation as a pre-pubescant and winds up making decisions from a stunted child's perspective and understanding of life. But Elle has one person with whom she transcends these sorrows. Her life becomes a journey towards discovering what true love is really about. Highly engrossing, highly entertaining, as well. Multi-dimensional. ## Frequently Bought Together - The Paper Palace (Reese's Book Club): A Novel - The Last Thing He Told Me: A Reese Witherspoon Book Club Pick - First Lie Wins: Reese's Book Club: A Novel --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.kw/products/419069975-the-paper-palace-reeses-book-club-a-novel](https://www.desertcart.com.kw/products/419069975-the-paper-palace-reeses-book-club-a-novel) --- *Product available on Desertcart Kuwait* *Store origin: KW* *Last updated: 2026-05-16*
