#ReadingUSA 2019 #Vermont. I really liked this book and had never heard of it before searching for a book set in Vermont. Historical interest of mental illness in women in the 40‘s and also in the 70‘s. I would recommend this book.
Now to find one for #Nevada.

One of the intriguing selections I received in my swap. I have yet to read anything by this particular author but the jacket description and reviews have me eager to start this with so much I can personally relate with...there is even a character that uses #Tarot and #Omens in nature!! 😁👍 Oh and there is a reader's guide included which is a nice bonus.

The latest from gifted storyteller, Sonja Yoerg, All the Best People is a touching story of courage and the power of love across three generations of women struggling to come to terms with the impact mental illness has had on them and their families.

This week's round-up: books you may have missed. Short descriptions on my blog or look up the books right here on Litsy. http://www.bethfishreads.com/2017/05/9-books-to-put-on-your-reading-list.html?m=...
Anyone in Boston with a free evening? I'm reading at Porter Square Books tonight at 7 pm. #booktour #litsyfriends #newrelease #newengland #boston
Any #Littens in Richmond, Virginia? Sonja Yoerg & I will be "in conversation" at Fountain Bookstore on Thursday, May 18 at 6:30pm, talking about how we weave fact into fiction for our novels.
Carole has spent most of her life taking care of her sister after their mother was hospitalized. She visits Solange and takes care of her family. Things are happening though, accounts don't add up and she hears voices. Keeping it secret, she tries to act as if everything is normal. Each family member reacts to this differently. When tragedy threatens, she can no longer pretend. How will the family deal with this? 5☆'s!
I was pleasantly surprised by this book told from four women's perspectives and in two different time periods. It touches on the topic of mental illness and it's effects on each individual. Some characters were likable while others I just wanted to shake. Well done @SonjaYoerg
Someone's blocking my view. Jasper doesn't normally snuggle so I'll take it while I can.
I was able to get an advanced copy of All the best people, and I really enjoyed it. I had a little difficulty getting the characters straight, but it all came together a few chapters in. I enjoyed the story line, the plot, and the characters.
This was terrific! Excellent characters! Very compelling story.
Chicken shawarma and fattoush for lunch with All the Best People. 👍🏻😊
Ah gross! We just had this topic in conversation in the office too! A former co-worker that came into work during the summer wearing flip-flops exposing ugly and hairy toes. 😝
Started this one last night - on the tablet so could read in bed at night. Haven't gotten too far yet but will probably focus on reading this one before getting back to Music of the Ghosts. (All the books must be read!)
Happy New Year! Giving away two signed advanced copies on my Facebook page. @BerkleyPub Good luck!
