Pre-release readers are calling Whistler one of Patchett’s most moving novels yet:
Readers describe it as immersive from the first page.
Early reviewers praise its beautiful sentences, emotional depth, and unforgettable characters.
Several readers frame it as the kind of novel that stays with you after the final page.
This book is for you if:
For readers who loved Tom Lake, The Dutch House, or a piece of literary fiction centered on family and memory.
For anyone drawn to quiet, emotional novels rather than plot-heavy ones.
For readers who want a book that feels intimate, reflective, and lasting.
For book clubs looking for themes of childhood, chosen family, regret, and reconnection.
Trove is different.
We rent new books.
How Renting Works
Step 1Choose a Book
Rent what you like. But if we’re missing something, let us know — we can get it for you.
Step 2Receive it
Three delivery options.
Simple, hassle-free, and delivered straight to your door.
Step 3Read and Decide
If you want to return it — no worries!
We’ll send you a new return label and instructions for an easy return.
Simply ship it back in either the box it came in or any box.
Step 4Return it
Read it and decide if you love it!
If you keep it, you will be charged the remainder price for the book, as if you bought it outright.
Then it’s yours!
We expect you may have some questions…
-
We believe hardcover books are simply too expensive, especially new releases. Trove gives you a lower-cost option to read new books immediately. Rent first, then return it when you are done — or keep it if you love it!
-
Renting from Trove lets you read a new hardcover without paying the full purchase price upfront. Choose Rent New, read the book for up to 30 days per copy, then return it or keep it. If you keep it, the remaining balance applies as if you bought it outright.
-
Yes! Trove offers new hardcover books for rent or purchase. Renting gives readers access to new releases at a lower upfront price than buying the hardcover outright.
-
You own it! If you rent a book and decide you want to keep it, the remaining purchase balance will apply. No action is needed.
This lets you start with the rental price and only pay the rest if you feel the book belongs on your shelf.
-
Each rental copy is kept for 30 days, with a maximum of 90 days. When your rental period ends, simply return the book using the return instructions included with your order. The book should be returned in very good condition so another reader can enjoy it!
-
Trove is a Washington, D.C.-based bookstore. We currently focus on serving DMV readers with new hardcover rentals and purchases, but plan to expand outward. Each shipping option and costs are shown at checkout before you place your order.
-
If a rental book is lost, not returned, or returned with major damage, the remaining purchase balance may still apply. If something happens to your rental, contact Trove as soon as possible so we can work with you to resolve the issue.
