Mia is an aspiring cellist with a picture perfect life: Loving family, adoring boyfriend, and a bright future ahead. But on an icy cold road, a devastating accident shatters Mia's life forever. Now hanging on, she must decide if she stays to face a lonely and uncertain future or join her family and leave behind her one true love. I had the chance to meet Gayle Forman last week at an event at Books and Books and she could not have been more kind and amazing. If this dazzling debut doesn't make you weep, then you are missing out.
*A shout out to Crystal giving me a copy of the book through "Random Acts of Kindness" (RAK).

Jude Farraday has the picture perfect life with a loving husband, a beautiful home, and two happy and healthy children. When Lexi Baill moves to Pine Island, she, Jude's daughter Mia, and her brother Zach become the very best of friends. But a tragic accident will change and rip apart the lives of both Jude and Lexi. For anyone that has read a novel by Kristen Hannah, they will be hopelessly cast under a spell as they tear across each page (and I should know that). In her most ambitious novel to date, "Night Road" is sure to win Kristen Hannah a whole new legion of fans. A beautiful and haunting tale of loss, love, forgiveness, and the meaning of family.
