Reading With Rochelle Weinstein: June
Hello Readers & Friends,
All this talk about summer reading, and I fell short in meeting my quota for the month. Sigh. While I traveled in June—the perfect time to get lost in a book—I disconnected and focused on the moment. Which was pretty amazing. But nine is still a good number, and these reads are sure to keep you captivated over the lazy days of summer. If you happen to be in the Asheville area July 23rd, I’ll be on a panel (check the site for updates) with Paulette Kennedy, Emily Carpenter, and Audrey Ingram, whose books are listed below. In the meantime, check out these great reads.

WE ARE MADE OF STARS
Secrets, lies, and second chances are served up beneath the stars at a picturesque mountain getaway in this powerful novel about love and family by the bestselling author of This Is Not How It Ends.
At the Vis Ta Vie inn, Reneé and Jean-Paul De La Rue face the daunting decision to close their beloved home for good.
They’re not the only ones going through a season of change, though. Their guests include three couples in crisis: Hollywood celebs Leo and Penny are spending their silver anniversary together while on the cusp of divorce. Lucy, a practical-minded therapist, and Henry, an astronomer with his head in the stars, are struggling to find common ground. And former lawyer and current stay-at-home mom Sienna and charismatic sports agent Adam look perfect but are hiding rifts of their own. Thrown into the mix are self-absorbed single mother Cassidy and her sullen fifteen-year-old daughter, Rosalie.
The stage is set for a week of betrayals, regrets, and shocking truths that can rend the heart or heal it. Vis Ta Vie—live your life—captures what it means to love through the darkness, and to find the light even after the magic fades.
