I started reading 'The Country of the Pointed Firs' by Sarah Orne Jewett. And I love it.
I never heard of that author before, only opening this book because an author whose work I appreciate a lot said his own appreciation for her. So far, I only had time to read the first four chapters but I think I can safely say I was already hooked after the first few paragraphs.
BTW, the book and a few others of hers are freely available on the Project Gutenberg, if you don't mind reading ebooks: https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/author/202
