Journal Entry 1 by wingwaterfallingwing from Rockledge, Florida USA on Wednesday, January 13, 2016
trade-size paperback.

from the back cover:
Reta Winters, 44-year-old successful author of light summertime fiction, has always considered herself happy, even blessed. That is, until her oldest daughter Norah mysteriously drops out of college to become a panhandler on a Toronto street corner - silent, with a sign around her neck bearing the word "Goodness".

A bit of a slower pace than the other of her novels I've read but still enjoyed. Unable to find answers as to why Norah has distanced herself from the world (which is not revealed until the ending), Reta absorbs herself in her current writing and relationships with family and friends and comically / seriously responds to authors whose writings appear to slight women's accomplishments.

Holding for the Canada Day release challenge.
