Ordinary Lives Review

“Mark Munger’s Ordinary Lives is anything but. With clear prose and sharp characters, he brings into focus faces and lives we won’t soon forget.” Sarah Stonich, author of the award-winning novel, These Granite Islands.

“Munger’s first book received rave reviews; so will (this). Given that Munger is a busy Northeastern Minnesota District Court Judge, one wonders when he finds time to craft such carefully wrought pieces…(T)he nicely done fiction of Ordinary Lives demands a dedication that part-time writers often cannot muster. Thankfully, Munger musters it.” Lake Superior Magazine.

“He seems to have an unlimited repertoire of stories to choose from…(O)nce you start one of the stories in Ordinary Lives you will find it very hard to put the book down and you will continue to think about the people in these stories even after you do. That’s my idea of a good read.” Reader Weekly.
