For those of you looking for an engaging novel - I recommend checking out Godspeed, by Nickolas Butler. Three working-class friends who own a small-time construction company near Jackson Hole are approached by a mysterious, deep-pocketed client to build a high-end home in a remote area... with the promise of a life changing bonus if they can complete the work on a nearly impossibly quick timeline. Money animates most of the plot and characters, and the author explores themes of class, greed, the effects of both poverty and of massive wealth on individuals and the growing chasm between the haves and have-nots in an area like Jackson Hole.
Above all, Godspeed caused me to reflect upon my own relationship with money and wealth, and how that intersects with my personal values and desires in life. I find that a lot of the most valuable (to me) conversations on this site touch on those same topics and because of that, my instinct is that there may be some other folks here who might enjoy reading Godspeed and would feel similarly about it.
