Creators: Mixed A woman steps over the line into the unthinkable in this brilliant, powerful, and unforgettable new novel by the author of The Lovely Bones and Lucky. For years Helen Knightly has given her life to others: to her haunted mother, to her enigmatic father, to her husband and now grown children. When she finally crosses a terrible boundary, her life comes rushing in at her in a way she never could have imagined. Unfolding over the next twenty-four hours, this searing, fast-paced novel explores the complex ties between mothers and daughters, wives and lovers, the meaning of devotion, and the line between love and hate. It is a challenging, moving, gripping story, written with the fluidity and strength of voice that only Alice Sebold can bring to the page.

MixedI have a review of The Almost Moon, which is another one of her books that I read, didn't like as much, but that review is still out there as well and so this one is going to be a little bit easier for me to step away from and just never mention again, but that icky feeling in my stomach is always going to be there whenever someone comments on one of my reviews or I see something about it online.
