Whiter Than Snow by Sandra Dallas – In 1920 in a Colorado mining town, an avalanche buries nine children who are walking home from school. This book is the story of the parents of the children. It tells how they came to be in this town and how the avalanche changes them.
Fly Away Home by Jennifer Weiner- This is a story of the aftermath of a political sex scandal. Sylvie is the wife of a senator. She finds out that he had an affair when it is announced on CNN. With her life falling apart she retreats to a relatives beach house. Her daughters are having life crises also and eventually they end up there too while they decide what to do with their lives.
This book isn’t as funny as her previous book but it is still good.

I’ve owned Weiner’s latest since it came out but haven’t read it yet! So bad of me since I love her books! Hope you have a great week!

These look like great books. Just looking at the covers makes me all greedy. I want them!
I’m reading a really nice book by Douglas Coupland, Generation A, which plays in the near future when all bees are distinct. It’s funny and a good read.
Happy reaidng!

Fly Away Home sounds very much like The Good Wife except the wife in this TV version goes back to work as a lawyer. Hope you have a great week!
