pickLOVED THIS BOOK! Almost like a scrapbook, the story is told through a narrative, snippets of a travel log, lists and notes, excerpts of a screenplay, court records, and more. It‘s two distinct stories combined into one and linked by a mother and daughter and their separate but similar journeys, both literal and figurative. Just a wonderfully bittersweet and touching novel. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

I've read 4 of these so far. Any other suggestions for books set in the 1950s?

I've been so bad about sharing my #bookmail the last few weeks! This lovely arrived for a #hfvbt book tour this month! I LOVED Letters From Skye and am soooo excited to read this one next! Thanks so much @AmyBruno and @penguinrandomhouse !!
#TBRtemptation post 4! 1950s Hollywood, Louise has an unfulfilling acting career and a shaky marriage. She receives notice that she's inherited the Florida estate of Florence, a former screenwriter who has a connection with her mom, Ethel. Louise heads East for answers. 30 years earlier, Florence & Ethel head West in their Model T from New Jersey for broader horizons in Las Vegas & LA. 3 women, 3 parallel tales. #blameLitsy #blameMrBook 😎
I am excited I got approved for this! It is an August release, so it vaulted to the top of my #NetgalleyTBR list.
pickReally good! I didn't know much about it going in - just that it's historical fiction and involved Hollywood - and I'm glad that's all I knew because if I had known anything about its structure I would have passed on it. It has 3 things I usually don't like or am just tired of: two timelines, present tense, and one story is told through diary entries. Somehow this all worked for me and I enjoyed both stories. Expected publication 8/8/17.
pickTwo road trips tied together blend into a predictable but satisfyingly heartwarming read! And while it isn't exactly #SetInTheSummer, it still has a summer-fun feel with its Hollywood angle and multi-faceted story!
