I really loved your book! Are you working on anything else? What are some of your favorite books that have real people facing real life problems?
Jessica Strawser
Thank you so much! I'm happy to report that my editor at St. Martin's Press just signed off on my final revision of my next novel--another stand-alone title told from multiple perspectives and unearthing secrets among characters--so look for news on that one soon (tentative release date: spring 2018).
As for favorite books depicting real-life problems, I find Anne Tyler to be a master of authentic, flawed characters. I also love Liane Moriarty, Maggie O'Farrell, Jodi Picoult, Chris Bohjalian... And I'm not sure anything has made me laugh as much as Maria Semple's "Where'd You Go, Bernadette?" in recent years.
