“Friend. What a word. Most use it about those they hardly know. When it is a wondrous thing.”

I've not read too many new releases this year but picked up Hisham Matar's "My Friend's" in March, based on how much I loved his previous works. It did not disappoint one bit, and I had to write on it. Such a *perfect* novel. Do read it if you have not yet!
