The Field

by Emily Emerson

The town of Avon is in trouble. With the local furniture plant closing down and hundreds out of work, everyone is in need a miracle. One morning, a mysterious crop circle appears in a corn field and with it, a series of unexplainable events cause the citizens to confront the question: If miracles do exist, what do you do with one when you get it?

    I felt like I knew Emily's characters immediately, like I was in the diner with them. I loved how a setting that felt like home to me could then take on such an out of this world twist, yet still feel so relatable. I've been wondering how her characters are doing since I finished reading it!
