This is a novel that takes place in Vermont which has an affected style (each paragraph is one or two sentences) but I pushed through it and really liked the story. It’s about a bunch of quirky individuals whose lives are intertwined sort of whether they like it or not (folks from New York, Christian beekeepers, “townies” lady who runs the post office). There is a tragedy partway through it and people react to stressors and the town changes but also stays the same.
