I thought it couldn’t get better than that.

Martha Hall Kelly also agreed to an author interview at the time, and I was over the moon excited. When her second book acme out, Lost Roses, I campaigned to get an ARC (by politely emailing her publicist.) She not only offered an ARC, I also got an advanced recording of the audiobook, which is how I ended up “reading” it. I’ve been a big fan of Martha Hall Kelly’s ever since.

I remember asking, is this book really that thick?! I’d flown through it. I read it as an e-book and hadn’t realized how long it was until the bookclub met in person and the other members had their hardcopies with them.

HBL Note: I read Martha Hall Kelly’s Lilac Girls in 2016 with a brand new book club I’d joined shortly after moving to Chicago the first time. Book Feature - Sunflower Sisters by Martha Hall Kelly
