Emilie Richards recommends
thumb
Full Bloom (2020)
Judith Arnold
"You'll smack your lips and wish you had your own Seder-in-a-box as you read Full Bloom from Judith Arnold. Manhattan's most lovable dysfunctional family faces trials and triumphs set around Bloom's, their popular West side deli. With sass and savvy, Arnold captures not only the physical geography of Blooms and its urban neighborhood, but the emotional geography of the Bloom family, too. Eat it up."
thumb
My Lies, Your Lies (2020)
Susan Lewis
"One Minute Later is an absorbing look at a young woman’s journey from health and good fortune to a life she never imagined. This page-turner challenges readers to evaluate their own lives and choices, and what really matters most."
thumb
A Curve in the Road (2018)
Julianne MacLean
"Julianne MacLean takes us on a compelling journey through loss and grief to new beginnings. A gripping, emotional read."
