"A deep dive into the dysfunctional dynamics of a 'picture perfect
family.' A compelling story about the beautiful humanity in the most
ordinary of lives." - New York Times bestselling author Kate Moretti.
Meet the Turners - a socially awkward genius child, an adolescent cat
burglar, a philandering husband, and a doormat wife in desperate need of
a backbone. The Turners are doing their best to craft a happy life and
face down a history they have no control over in a neighborhood where
only the houses are similar. And when relationships sprout from
seemingly nowhere and secrets begin to unravel, practicing normal
becomes harder than it's ever been.Combining her trademark combination
of wit, insight, and tremendous empathy for her characters, Cara Sue
Achterberg has written a novel that is at once familiar and startlingly
fresh. PRAISE FOR CARA SUE ACHTERBERG'S NATIONAL BESTSELLER I'M NOT HER:
Girls' Weekend.indd "Well written, sometimes light, sometimes
frightening, but always intriguing, this bird's eye view of two lives
intertwined among millions is certainly food for thought, especially
when one walks a mile in another's shoes." - Tome Tender "I loved this
novel . . . this book had me laughing at some points, and it had me
wiping away tears at others." - Comfy Reading "An awesome read! The
theme of living the life of another no matter the situation and not
judging without truly knowing is a lesson we should all take to
heart." - Literarily Illumined AND FOR HER NATIONAL BESTSELLER GIRLS'
WEEKEND: "Had I known I'd still be sitting in my favorite chair at 2am,
racing to the finish, I probably would have put on my pajamas before I
started. (Sometime before lunch...) Yeppers, it was that good. It was
compelling, touching, and a bit soul-searching. Oh, and it was fun,
too." -Momma on the Rocks "GIRLS' WEEKEND is beautifully written. It
feels as though you are right there with Dani, Charlotte, and Meg. It's
a wonderful read and I highly recommend it to any woman who has ever
been struck with a case of the 'what ifs.'" - Life, Motherhood, and the
Pursuit of Happiness "Surprised me in so many good ways." - Lost in a
