About the Carleton Sisters: A Novel

-For readers who liked …The Dutch House by Ann Patchett or Little Fires Everywhere by Celeste Ng
Today’s social media-centric society has created a heightened awareness of gendered beauty norms, particularly for aging women, and the ways Americans equate beauty with self-worth-themes that are examined throughout this book.
Award-winning author Janet Fitch, whose novel White Oleander, gained fame as an Oprah winner, has already agreed to blurb the book. Alcoholism addiction and its heartbreaking effect on families are poorly understood in our current culture, though more than 6 percent of the US population has alcohol-use issues; this aspect of the novel will resonate strongly with a broad audience.
