I recently finished
The One in a Million Boy by Monica Wood which I enjoyed very much. I liked the spirited character of 104-year-old Ona. You are never too old to form new friendships or chase Guinness Book World Records.
I am currently listening to
The Last Painting of Sara de Vos by Dominic Smith. I really like the writing style. The narrator, Edoardo Ballerina, is excellent.
From Goodreads:

In his earlier, award-winning novels, Dominic Smith demonstrated a gift for coaxing the past to life. Now, in The Last Painting of Sara de Vos, he deftly bridges the historical and the contemporary, tracking a collision course between a rare landscape by a female Dutch painter of the golden age, an inheritor of the work in 1950s Manhattan, and a celebrated art historian who painted a forgery of it in her youth.
