I loved the review of The Light We Lost that was part if the reading list on The Stripe. My favorite lines were: “Oh my goodness – if you read one book this month, make this be it” and “[I]t felt so real and true (and reminded me of stories so many of my married friends have told me), and I will just say that I sobbed the entire last chapter. It’s an absolute must read.” (I loved the Sex and the City reference in the review, too…) If you want to read the whole thing you can click here: http://thestripe.com/2017/06/june-2017-reading-list/

The Greek Edition!
I did this photo shoot when the Greek edition of The Light We Lost arrived. I loved getting to see how my name was spelled using the Greek alphabet. I also loved that my photo is flopped, so I’m looking right instead of left, like I usually do in that picture. And I loved
that Delia Ephron, Karma K. Brown, Brenda Bowen, and Thomas Christopher Greene are on the back flap!
