Golden Girl |
by Elin Hilderbrand |
 |
Praise For This Book |
"Hilderbrand's latest, most philosophical and (I'm declaring it) best novel... The story is a family saga, a mystery and a moving retrospective that manages to be clever without being coy."-Elisabeth Egan, New York Times "It's not officially summer until Elin Hilderbrand drops her annual page-turner. In this one, novelist Vivi dies in a hit-and-run and ascends to the Beyond, where she learns she has three "nudges" to influence events on earth. In this touching, scenic story, we learn what it is to let go and let life go on."-Good Housekeeping "It's almost summer, which means Hilderbrand's legions of fans will be anxious for her latest... This is classic Hilderbrand. . . . hopefully, she has many more Nantucket tales in store."-Booklist "It has suspense, beautiful beach scenes and inspirational anecdotes. You really can't do better than that."-Cosmopolitan "Golden Girl is surprising, delightful and-dare I say?-quirky... The book is filled with Hilderbrand's trademark gorgeous scenes and delicious dialogue. But Golden Girl also explores the author's own place in the literary pantheon, often with a wink and a nod to the reader... It is funny and heartbreaking, and even though it's in some ways a departure for Hilderbrand, the novel still offers plenty of that Nantucket air to keep you turning pages."-BookPage "Beautifully uplifting ... an emotionally powerful story. Faithful readers have come to depend on Hilderbrand's top-notch escapist fiction that puts lively, dramatic new spins on families challenged by love and loss. Golden Girl will exceed their expectations."-Shelf Awareness "Hilderbrand's writing is witty, spunky, fun and dramatic."-Book Reporter |
