Last Spring, at BEA, I was fortunate to pick up an advanced copy of Come Away With Me
by Karma Brown.
So of course, I was ecstatic when I heard it was one of the BookSparks ‘My Winter is Booked’ selections. I read it over the summer and devoured it. You can read my thoughts of the
book here.
Title:Come Away With Me
Author:Karma Brown
Published:August 2015, MIRA
Format: ARC Paperback, 368 pages
One minute, Tegan
Lawson has everything she could hope for: an adoring husband, Gabe, and a
baby on the way. The next, a patch of black ice causes a devastating
accident that will change her life in ways she never could have
imagined.Tegan is consumed by grief, not to mention her anger
toward Gabe, who was driving on the night of the crash. But just when
she thinks she’s hit rock bottom, Gabe reminds her of their Jar of
Spontaneity, a collection of their dream destinations and experiences,
and so begins an adventure of a lifetime.From the bustling
markets of Thailand to the flavors of Italy to the ocean waves in
Hawaii, Tegan and Gabe embark on a journey to escape the tragedy and
search for forgiveness. But they soon learn that grief follows you no
matter how far away you run, and that acceptance comes when you least
expect it.Heartbreaking, hopeful and utterly transporting, Come
Away with Me is an unforgettable debut and a luminous celebration of
the strength of the human spirit.
Come Away With Me by Karma Brown is one of BookSparks “My Winter is Booked” reading selection picks.
