WAITING ON WEDNESDAY

Waiting On Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted at Breaking the Spine, which encourages fellow bloggers to spotlight upcoming releases that we’re excited about.  It is a meme that I have just started participating in, but as Jill is no longer actively posting, from now on I’ll just be linking to Can’t Wait Wednesday, hosted by Tressa, which is a spinoff of the original WoW meme.

PUBLICATION DATE: APRIL 30, 2019

FROM GOODREADS:

Why do unhappily married people stay together? How much courage does it take to walk away? Robyn Carr tackles this difficult subject matter in a heartfelt, humorous and down-to-earth way that readers can relate to.

The next original trade women’s fiction novel from beloved bestselling author Robyn Carr. Carr is the #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Virgin River and Thunder Point series. Her trade women’s fiction novel Four Friends debuted at #5 on the New York Times. Her hardcover debut, What We Find was #10 on the ebook list and #14 on the combined list. Her most recent trade original, The Summer That Made Us.

Two people, each on the brink of leaving their marriages, meet by chance and become friends. They support each other as they each start over again and, despite judgment from family and friends, their relationship turns to love. The novel explores the reasons people choose to stay unhappily married and the courage it takes to leave. Ultimately, two decent people realize they have been living their lives for the benefit of their families but at a huge cost to their own well-being. They encourage each other to be brave enough to claim the happiness they deserve by choosing to be with the person who is right for them. A multigenerational story about love, marriage and family, The View from Alameda Island is a sensitive, emotional, funny look at an issue that touches everyone.
